Installation of APEX 21.2 in Linux

Step by step installation of APEX 21.2  in Linux


Description:
    In this blog, we are going to see step-by-step installation steps in oracle apex 21.2 on Linux and database 19c.

Oracle Application Express:

  • Oracle Application Express (APEX) is a low-code development platform.
  • that enables you to build stunning, scalable, secure apps with world-class features that can be deployed anywhere.
  • Using APEX, developers can quickly develop and deploy compelling apps that solve real problems and provide immediate value.
Overall steps:

1. Create a directory copy the software's.
2. Unzip Apex 21.2 Zip File.
3. Create APEX tablesapce.
4. Execute apex installation scripts.
5. Configure the database apex restful services.
6. Alter a apex user in database level and set the password.
7. Set the port number as 0.
8. Unzip java and tomcat Zip files.
9. Create Tomcat environment file, start tomcat and check the ip 
its working or not.
10. In tomcat-user.xml file entries.
11. ORDS  configuration process.
12. apex.war file creation and Set Oracle REST Database Service ORDS 
configuration directory.
13. ORDS installation process.
14. Apex.xml file entries and create image directory and copy images.
15. Start the tomcat and check web page front end working or not.

Required Software’s

Step 1:- Create a Directory and copy the softwares.
    Create a new directory name as apex_21.2.
     Either we can download software or we copy the software’s from available locations using winscp/scp. Step 2:- Unzip the Apex file in the created directory.
     Unzip the Apex software in our customized location after unzipping it will create a directory called apex.
[oracle@primary apex21.2]$ unzip apex_21.2_en.zip
Step 3:- Create a separate tablespace for Apex:
       SQL>create tablesapce APEX datafile ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/ORCL/apex02.dbf’ size 1g;
Tablesapce created.
Step 4:- Execute apex installation scripts.
        Script Location – /home/oracle/apex21.2/apex
[oracle@primary apex]$ cat apexins.sql
SQL> @apexins.sql APEX APEX TEMP /i/
Step 5:- Configure the database apex restful services.
       SYS> @apex_rest_config.sql
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
       After execute script provide password for public user and apex listener.
Step 6:- Alter a apex user in database level and set the password.
SYS> alter user APEX_LISTENER identified by Apex#321 account unlock;
SYS> alter user APEX_PUBLIC_USER identified by Apex#321 account unlock;
Step 7:- Set the port number as 0. (we need to set default port 8080 while using PLSQL gateway)
SYS> EXEC dbms_xdb.sethttpport(0);
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

Step 8:- Unzip java and tomcat Zip files.
Unzip the java software file.
[oracle@primary apex21.2]$ tar -xvf jdk-17_linux-x64_bin.tar.gz
unzip tomcat software file.

[oracle@primary apex21.2]$ tar -xvf apache-tomcat-9.0.27.tar.gz
Step 9:- Create Tomcat environment file, start tomcat and check the ip its working or not.
[oracle@primary ~]$vi  tomcat.env

export JAVA_HOME=/home/oracle/apex21.2/jdk-17.0.1
export CATALINA_HOME=/home/oracle/apex21.2/apache-tomcat-9.0.27
export CATALINA_BASE=$CATALINA_HOME
Start the tomcat using start up script.
script location – cd$CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh
check the system local ip tomcat working or not if working shutdown the tomcat for apex configuration.
System IP – http://192.168.44.128:8080
Step 10:- Tomcat user-xml file entries.
script Location – /home/oracle/apex21.2/apache-tomcat-9.0.27/conf/tomcat-user.xml
<role rolename=”manager-gui” />

<user username=”oracle” password=”oracle” roles=”manager-gui” />Step 11:- ORDS  configuration process.
Make a directory as ords and unzip ords software in that location.
Make a conf directory in that ords location.
ORDS configuration:
Add the dbname and domain entries in the “ords_params.properties” file

[oracle@primary ords]$ cd params/
[oracle@primary params]$ ls
ords_params.properties
[oracle@primary params]$ cat ords_params.properties

Step 12:- apex.war file creation and Set Oracle REST Database Service ORDS
configuration directory.
Take a backup for ords war file.

     [oracle@primary ords]$cp ords.war ords.war_bkp_25_11_2021
Move the file ords.war to apex.war
      [oracle@primary ords]$ mv ords.war apex.war
Set Oracle REST Database Service ORDS configuration directory
[oracle@primary ords]$ /home/oracle/apex21.2/jdk-17.0.1/bin/java -jar apex.war configdir /home/oracle/apex21.2/ords/conf
INFO: Set config.dir to /home/oracle/apex21.2/ords/conf in: /home/oracle/apex21.2/ords/apex.war
Step 13:- ORDS installation process:-
       after create apex war file using that to install a java.
[oracle@primary ords]$ /home/oracle/apex21.2/jdk-17.0.1/bin/java -jar apex.war install advanced

Verify ORDS schema in Database Configuration apex with connection host: primary.localdomain port: 1521 service name: orcl.localdomain

Physical Standby To Snapshot Standby

Physical Standby To Snapshot Standby

Description:
In this Blog, we are going to see what is snapshot standby database and how to convert a physical standby database to a snapshot standby database with Demo.

Snapshot Standby Database:

  • Snapshot standby allows doing a read-write operation on the standby database.
  • We can convert the physical standby database to snapshot standby.
  • On that, we can do all types of testing or can be used as a development database.
  • Once the testing is over we can again convert the snapshot database to physical standby.
  • Once it is converted physical standby database, whatever changes were done to the snapshot standby will be reverted.

Data Guard Configuration Environment:

Overall Steps:

1. Check primary and standby database role and open mode.
2. Check the archived sequence value in standby.
3. Disable the MRP process.
4. Check the flashback status if it not enabled, enable the flashback.
5. Check the db_recovery_file_set location and size.
6. Bounce the database and start the db as mount stage.
7. Convert physical standby to snapshot standby database.
8. Open standby database and check open mode READ/WRITE.
9. Test the snapshot standby database now we can create user and tables 
for testing purpose.
10. verify the log sequence primary and standby.
11. Bounce database again open in mount stage.
12. Convert snapshot standby to physical standby.
13. Bounce the database.
14. Check the database role has been changed as physical standby and the 
mode as read only.
15. After bounce enable the MRP process and check table available or not.

Step 1- Check primary and standby database role and open mode.

19c Physical standby configuration – Dataguard

Physical standby configuration:


Description:
         In this Blog we are going to see the step by step process of data Guard configuration, and primary to physical standby database demo.

what Is Data Guard:

  • Oracle data Guard ensures high availability, data protection, and disaster recovery for enterprise data.
  • Data Guard maintains these standby databases as transactional consistent copies of the production database.
  • if the production database becomes unavailable, Data Guard can switch any standby database to the production role.

Physical Standby

  • Physical Standby is the exact block-for-block copy of primary database.
  • REDO logs apply primary to physical standby, its always sync with primary database  
  • Physical Standby database only opened as READ ONLY mode.
  • Most of the environment used the physical standby database.

Environment Details:
Overall Steps:

1.Check Archive log mode enable and force logging enabled.
2.Add Standby log file group.
3.check listener and TNS entry both primary and standby severs.
4.Change parameters in primary database.
5.copy password file primary to standby.
6.Create PFILE in standby database.
7.Create directory Structure in Standby database.
8.Connect RMAN in standby database and run the script
9.Check database can be configured or not.
10.Connect standby database execute MRP process.
11.Switch Logs in primary database, Execute Defer Enable.
12.Check standby database log files can be switched.
13.Crosscheck Alert Log files.

Primary Server Configuration:

Step 1: Check Archive log mode enable and force logging enabled.

In the primary database check whether the archive log mode is enabled or not, also check the force logging option to enable if is not enabled please enable it.

[oracle@agent ~]$ export ORACLE_SID=agent
[oracle@agent ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba
Oracle Database 19c Enterprise Edition Release 19.0.0.0.0 – Production
Version 19.3.0.0.0

Connect database as mount stage

SQL> alter database archivelog;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database force logging;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database open;
Database altered.
SQL> select FORCE_LOGGING,log_mode from v$database;
FORCE_LOGGING                   LOG_MODE
————————-                    ————–
YES                                           ARCHIVELOG

Step 2: Add Standby logfile group.

Add logfile group in the primary database mentioned as that file creation as standby log group.

SQL> alter database add standby logfile group 4 ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/AGENT/redo04.log’ size 50m;
Database altered.

SQL> alter database add standby logfile group 5 ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/AGENT/redo05.log’ size 50m;
Database altered.

SQL> alter database add standby logfile group 6 ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata/AGENT/redo06.log’ size 50m;
Database altered.

SQL> SELECT GROUP#,THREAD#,SEQUENCE#,ARCHIVED,STATUS FROM V$STANDBY_LOG;

GROUP# THREAD# SEQUENCE# ARC STATUS
———- ———- ———- — ———-
4 0 0 YES UNASSIGNED
5 0 0 YES UNASSIGNED
6 0 0 YES UNASSIGNED

Step 3- check listener and TNS entry both primary and standby servers.

Primary side entries.
LISTENER:
listener =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.1)(PORT = 1521))
)
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
)
)
)
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = agent)
(ORACLE_HOME =/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1)
(SID_NAME = agent)
)
)
TNS names:
[oracle@agent admin]$ cat tnsnames.ora
agent=
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.1)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = agent)
)
)
data=
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.2)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = data)
(UR=A)
)
)
Standby side entries:
LISTENER:
[oracle@data admin]$ cat listener.ora
listener =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.2)(PORT = 1521))
)
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
)
)
)
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = data)
(ORACLE_HOME =/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1)
(SID_NAME = data)
)
)
TNS names:
[oracle@data admin]$
data=
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.2)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = data)
)
)
agent=
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.1)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = agent)
(UR=A)
)
)

The output of tns ping statements connects both sides primary to standby and standby to primary.

[oracle@agent admin]$ tnsping data
TNS Ping Utility for Linux: Version 19.0.0.0.0 – Production on 18-NOV-2021 07:19:44
Copyright (c) 1997, 2019, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Used parameter files:
Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.2)(PORT = 1521))) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = data) (UR=A)))
OK (20 msec)

[oracle@agent admin]$ tnsping agent

OK (0 msec)
[oracle@agent admin]$

Step 4:Change parameters in primary database.

1. dg_config – Specify the DG_CONFIG attribute to identify the DB_UNIQUE_NAME for the primary database and standby database.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_config=’dg_config=(agent,data)’ SCOPE=both;
System altered.

2. log_archive_dest_1 – The LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST parameter is used to specify the directory to which Oracle archive logs are written.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest_1=’location=use_db_recovery_file_dest valid_for=(all_logfiles,all_roles) db_unique_name=agent’ SCOPE=both;
System altered.

3. log_archive_dest_2 – handle the transmission of the standby site’s archived redo logs back to the original primary database.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest_2=’service=data async valid_for=(online_logfiles,primary_role) db_unique_name=data’ SCOPE=both;
System altered.

4. FAL_SERVER – It is used to fetch an archive log server for a standby database.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET fal_server=’data’ SCOPE=both;
System altered.

5. FAL_CLIENT – It is configured for point the FAL Client.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET fal_client=’agent’ SCOPE=both;
System altered.

6. standby_file_management –Check the redo changes done in Primary and sync those changes in Standby by Stopping the recovery and making STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT = MANUAL value.
Then sync the primary changes with standby changes and again change the parameter to AUTO and start the recovery on Standby database.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET standby_file_management=’AUTO’ SCOPE=both;
System altered.

SQL> show parameter log_archive_config;

NAME TYPE VALUE
———————————— ———– ——————————
log_archive_config string dg_config=(agent,data)
SQL>

Step 5:Copy password file primary to standby

scp orapwagent [email protected]:$ORACLE_HOME/dbs
[oracle@agent dbs]$ scp orapwagent [email protected]:$ORACLE_HOME/dbs
[email protected]’s password:
orapwagent 100% 2048 2.1MB/s 00:00
[oracle@agent dbs]$

Move the file in new name db_unique_name(standby)
oracle@data ~]$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
[oracle@data dbs]$ ls
hc_data.dat init.ora lkDATA orapwdata orapwagent spfiledata.ora
[oracle@data dbs]$ mv orapwagent orapwdata

Step 6 :- create PFILE in standby database

In the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory of the standby system, create an initialization parameter file named initdata.ora
Containing a single parameter: DB_NAME=agent
[oracle@data dbs]$ cat initdata.ora
db_name=agent
[oracle@data dbs]$ pwd
/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1/dbs

Step 7 :- Create directory Structure in Standby database.

[oracle@data dbs]$ cd $ORACLE_BASE/admin/
[oracle@data dbs]$ mkdir data
[oracle@data dbs]$ cd data
[oracle@data dbs]$ mkdir adump
[oracle@data dbs]$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DATA

Step 8 :- Connect RMAN clone Database

method 1:
copy pfile primary database to standby edit the parameters after that connect RMAN and clone the database.

parameter_value_convert ‘agent’,’data’
set db_name=’agent’
set db_unique_name=’data’
set db_file_name_convert=’/u01/app/oracle/oradata/AGENT/’,’/u01/app/oracle/oradata/DATA/’
set log_file_name_convert=’/u01/app/oracle/oradata/AGENT/’,’/u01/app/oracle/oradata/DATA/’
set control_files=’/u01/app/oracle/oradata/DATA/standby1.ctl’
set log_archive_max_processes=’5′
set fal_client=’data’
set fal_server=’agent’
set standby_file_management=’AUTO’
set log_archive_config=’dg_config=(agent,data)’
set compatible=’19.3.0.0′
set memory_target=’1200m’

method 2:
craete a RMAN script mention the parameters changes in spfile to execute the script.

Converting a physical standby database into snapshot standby database

What is snapshot standby database?

It allows to perform read-write operation on the standby database.ie converting the physical standby to snapshot standby database. On that, we can do all types of testing or it can be used as a development database. After our testing process is over we can convert our snapshot standby database in to physical standby database and changes done to the snapshot standby will be reverted.

A snapshot standby database receives and archives redo data but it does not apply the redo data from the primary database.

NOTE: FRA (Fast Recovery Area) must be configured in physical standby database but it is not necessary to have flashback enabled.

Overview steps:

Step:1 verify open_mode, database_role of the standby db it should be in read only with apply, physical standby

Step:2 cancel the recovery process(MRP)

Step:3 Enable the flashback_mode in standby, it can be enabled after specifying the location of the db_recovery_file_dest (db recovery area)

Step:4 Then we can convert our physical standby to snapshot standby database.

Step:1 check the open_mode, database_role of the database.

SQL> select open_mode from v$database;

OPEN_MODE
--------------------
READ ONLY WITH APPLY

SQL> select database_role from v$database;

DATABASE_ROLE
----------------
PHYSICAL STANDBY

Step:2 we must stop the redo apply process using the following command.

SQL> alter database recover managed standby database cancel;

Database altered.

SQL> shut immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.

SQL> startup mount
ORACLE instance started.

Redo Buffers                   3686400 bytes
Database mounted.

Step:3 Enable the flashback to convert it into snapshot standby database.

SQL> alter database flashback on;

Database altered.

SQL> show parameter db_recovery_file_dest

NAME                                 TYPE                  VALUE
--------------------------------   -----------    ------------------------------
db_recovery_file_dest              string       /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/  
db_recovery_file_dest_size         big integer            8256M
SQL> select database_role from v$database;

DATABASE_ROLE
----------------
PHYSICAL STANDBY

SQL> select status from v$instance;

STATUS
------------
MOUNTED

Step:5 Convert the physical standby to snapshot standby using below command.

SQL> alter database convert to snapshot standby;

Database altered

Step:6 Mount the db and open it.

SQL> select open_mode from v$database;

OPEN_MODE
--------------------
MOUNTED

SQL> alter database open;

Database altered.

Step:7 select the name of the restore point, gurantee_flashback_database information’s from v$restore_point view, where gurantee_flashback_database parameter tells that whether flashback log files will be kept to ensure a flashback to this point.

SQL> select NAME,GUARANTEE_FLASHBACK_DATABASE from v$restore_point;

   NAME                                                      GUA

----------------------------------------------------  ----------------
  SNAPSHOT_STANDBY_REQUIRED_02/18/2021 01:27:55              YES


Step:8 check the role of the  db whether it has converted into snapshot standby.

SQL> select database_role from v$database;

DATABASE_ROLE
----------------
SNAPSHOT STANDBY

Step:9 Now I am performing some DML operations, creating a table student and adding 100000 rows in it.

SQL> create table student(id number(5));

Table created.

SQL> begin
for i in 1 .. 100000 loop
insert into student values(1);
end loop;
end;

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

SQL> select count(*) from student;

COUNT(*)
----------
100000

SQL> commit;
Commit complete.

SQL> shut immediate

Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL>

SQL> startup mount
ORACLE instance started.

Redo Buffers                    3686400 bytes
Database mounted.

Step:10 Converting snapshot standby db to physical standby.

SQL> alter database convert to physical standby;

Database altered.
SQL> select database_role,open_mode from v$database;

DATABASE_ROLE        OPEN_MODE
---------------- --------------------
PHYSICAL STANDBY      MOUNTED

SQL> select status from v$instance;

STATUS
------------
MOUNTED

SQL> shut immediate

ORA-01109: database not open

Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.

Database mounted.
Database opened.
SQL> select open_mode from v$database;

OPEN_MODE
--------------------
READ ONLY

Step:11 Hence we converted our snapshot standby to physical standby, the DML operations that we have done in snapshot standby cannot be retrieved here.

SQL> select * from student;
select * from student
