Terminology and Environment Description

Terminology

Site Administrator – Point of contact responsible for setting up and testing classroom environment. The
administrator is also responsible for explaining setup and login procedures to the instructor.

Client/Server Course – Course conducted with client/server architecture. Database server resides on the
CLASSROOM SERVER and client software resides on each CLASSROOM WORKSTATION. Currently,
most language courses (Intro to Oracle, Intro to Oracle for Exp. Users, Advanced SQL, etc.) are
client/server courses.

CLASSROOM SERVER – This is the database server for most language courses. Some courses may
require middle tier software to be installed.

CLASSROOM WORKSTATION - A PC used by a student to perform practice labs. For the language
courses, the client must have all necessary software installed and running locally. For standalone courses,
both client and server software must be locally. Some courses may require middle tier software to be
installed.

N-Tier Course – Course conducted with database on CLASSROOM SERVER, client software installed on
CLASSROOM WORKSTATION and middle tier installed on the CLASSROOM SERVER or the
CLASSROOM WORKSTATION. Several courses require an N-Tier configuration. Currently all
language courses (Oracle9i: Introduction to SQL, Oracle9I: Program with PL/SQL, etc… ) are N-Tier
courses.

Standalone Course - Course conducted with database server, middle tier server (if required) and client
software residing on each CLASSROOM WORKSTATION. Currently all DBA courses (Oracle9i
Database Administration Fundamentals I and II, and Oracle9i Database Performance Tuning) are
standalone courses.

Specific software requirements for this course can be found in the section titled Course Specific
Description and Information.

Unless noted otherwise, the CLASSROOM SERVER can be used as the Instructors WORKSTATION.
Documentation

Documentation can be found at the Oracle University On-Site and Partner web site.

Individual course setup documents are also available at this site. These documents provide step by step
course setup instructions and tests that verify the setup. This documentation is intended primarily for the
site administrators.

In addition, there are instructor read me files on how to conduct each course on Windows NT. These files
are intended for instructors, but site administrators should also review them. These read me files include
corrections to demo, labs, and solution files.

Location of Course Files

Once downloaded, the course setup files will be extracted from the ZIP file. The extraction will create a
directory structure, starting at the highest level of c:\oracourse. An environment variable
%CLASS_SOURCE% is set to the location of the setup files. Default location is

%CLASS_SOURCE%=c:\oracourse

Client/Server Courses

All demo, labs, and solution files are placed to each CLASSROOM WORKSTATION
during the course setup. A folder structure is created that is course specific. The
following folder structure is an example of a typical Client/Server course.

c:\oraclass\demo
\labs
\solutions
Location of Course Files (continued)

Standalone Courses

All demo, labs, and solution files are placed on each CLASSROOM WORKSTATION
during the course setup. Additionally a database is created, to include and all data files,
control files and redo log files. The folder structure is course specific. For example, the
folder structure created for the Oracle9i Database Administration Fundamentals I will be
as follows:

c:\oraclass\admin\bdump
c:\oraclass\admin\cdump
c:\oraclass\admin\create
c:\oraclass\admin\pfile
c:\oraclass\admin\udump
c:\oraclass\backup\log
c:\oraclass\backup\noarch
c:\oraclass\backup\rman
c:\oraclass\backup\uman
c:\oraclass\demo
c:\oraclass\donttouch
c:\oraclass\network\admin
c:\oraclass\network\log
c:\oraclass\oradata\archive1
c:\oraclass\oradata \archive2
c:\oraclass\oradata\u01
c:\oraclass\oradata\u02
c:\oraclass\oradata\u03
c:\oraclass\oradata\u04
c:\oraclass\oradata\u05
c:\oraclass\oradata \u06
c:\oraclass\student\labs
c:\oraclass\student\solns

Multiple ORACLE_HOMEs

The software that you have installed determines the number of ORACLE_HOMEs you have. The
following table is provided as an example.

Oracle Home Location Software Installed

1. Default Oracle Home c:\oracle\ora90 Oracle9i Enterprise Edition

2. isuites c:\oracle\isuites Oracle9i Application Server

3. dev6I c:\dev6I Developer 6i

A description of the ORACLE_HOMEs required for this specific course can be found in the section titled
Course Specific Description and Information.
Multiple ORACLE_HOMEs (continued)

For most courses each ORACLE_HOME registry value will have the following entries

ORACLE_SID=DBA
TNS_ADMIN=c:\oracle\ora90\network\admin
SQLPATH=c:\oraclass\code_examples; c:\oraclass\demo; c:\oraclass\labs; c:\oraclass\solutions

The ORACLE_SID entry forces each ORACLE application (SQL*Plus, Form Builder, etc.)
installed into that ORACLE HOME to connect to the specified instance by default. In the
example above the specified instance is DBA.

The TNS_ADMIN entry forces all requests for service name resolution (system/manager@V901)
to be resolved from one location. This eliminates the need for sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora in
multiple ORACLE_HOMEs.

The SQLPATH entry sets the search path for SQL*Plus, eliminating the need to type the full path
when issuing the @ or START command in SQL*Plus.

Each course setup document specifies which %ORACLE_HOME%\bin should appear first in the PATH
variable. To change the order of the PATH variable, go to My Computer, right click, select Properties and
edit the PATH System Variable.

NT Services

Running Oracle on the NT platform requires you to be familiar with NT services.

Prior to starting an instance, an NT service must be started. The NT service that allows the instance to be
started is created by the ORADIM Utility.

Almost every Oracle executable runs as an NT Service including the Listener, Intelligent Agent, Names
Server, Connect Manager and Oracle Management Server, etc., all run as NT services. Most of these
services are created upon installing the software. To view, start, and stop services go to Start > Settings >
Control Panel > Services.
Course Specific Description and Information

Specific Information for Oracle9i Database Performance Tuning

Oracle9i Database Performance Tuning is a Standalone course. On the Instructor CLASSROOM

WORKSTATION and each student CLASSROOM WORKSTATION you will install the required
software, configure the network and create two databases. One database will be created and serve as the
repository for the Oracle Management Server. The other database will be used by the students to perform
practice exercises.

Setup of Instructor and each Student CLASSROOM WORKSTATION

The Instructor CLASSROOM WORKSTATION and each student CLASSROOM WORKSTATION will
have Oracle9i DB EE 9.0.1.1.1 installed.

On the Instructor CLASSROOM WORKSTATION and each student CLASSROOM WORKSTATION

one ORACLE HOME will exist.

Oracle Home Location Software Installed

1.Default Oracle Home c:\oracle\ora90 9iDB EE 9.0.1.1.1 and set Patch Set
2271678 applied.

Two databases will be created.

The first, OEMREP, will be created using the Enterprise Manager Configuration Assistant. OEMREP will
be the repository for the Oracle Management Server (OMS).

The DBA database will be created by running a DOS command file. The DBA database is used by the
students to perform practices exercises. It is commonly know as the “managed database”.

NT Services

Before starting the class ensure the following NT services are Started and set to start Automatically on
each student and instructor workstation.

OracleOraHome90Agent
OracleOraHome90TNSListener
OracleServiceDBA
OracleServiceOEMREP

Before starting the class ensure the OracleOraHome90ManagementServer NT service is Stopped and set to
start Manually on each student and instructor workstation.

When the “OMS Login” screen is displayed provide the following, then select “OK”

Administrator: sysman
Password: oem_temp

Before starting the class ensure the OracleOraHome90HTTPServer NT service is Stopped and set to start
Manually on each student and instructor workstation.

The OracleOraHome90HTTPServer service is intentionally Stopped and set to start Manually prior to
class starting. The course setup or course notes do not specifically call for the use of iSQL*Plus by the
students. But, it would do no harm starting this service, allowing the students to access the databases with
iSQL*Plus. The choice is up to the site administrator.

Task: Update Registry

The student should run wkload.cmd located in c:\oraclass\student\wkshop.

This command file, wkload.cmd takes three parameters. All parameters have default values.

First is # of OLTP users. If it is null it defaults to 3.

Second is # of DSS users. If it is null it defaults to 3.

Third is # of times the OLTP and DSS users log in to the database and perform tasks.
If it is null it defaults to 5.

The following is an example of running the workload twice with three OLTP users and three DSS users.

C:\Oraclass\Student\Wkshop>wkload 3 3 2
Workload will run with 3 OLTP users.
Workload will run with 3 DSS users.
Workload will run 2 times.
