SystemLoad SystemLoad can monitor the status of various system components. It is a modular platform to display different data sets. The goal of this project is to provide a simple monitor tool for displaying dynamic information. System load aggregates alert. Fully composable (you pick what you need) observability stack for metrics, logs, traces and synthetic monitoring integrated with Grafana.

This chapter contains instructions for obtaining and running the Repository Creation Utility (RCU).

This chapter contains the following sections:

2.1 Obtaining RCU

In 12c (12.1.3), RCU is available with the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure distribution. For information about how to install this software and obtain RCU, see Installing and Configuring the Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure.

2.2 Starting RCU

SystemLoadSystemLoad

After Oracle Fusion Middleware Infrastructure is installed, start RCU from the ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/bin directory.

Note:

If you are running RCU using a non-English database, you will need to set the following language environment variables: LANG, LC_ALL, and NLS_LANG. Use the environment commands that are appropriate for your environment.

For example, for UNIX operating systems running csh enter the following:

On Linux operating systems:

On Windows operating systems:

RCU provides a command line interface in situations where Xserver is not available or you have access to telnet terminals without display capabilities. The command line interface also allows you to embed RCU from command line scripts or with some Oracle Fusion Middleware components (for example, Enterprise Manager).

For more information using the CLI, see Chapter 3.

You must remember the prefix and schema names for the components you are installing; you will need this information during the configuration phase of your product installation. Oracle recommends that you write these values down.

Specify the passwords for your schema owners.

You must remember the passwords you enter on this screen; you will need this information during the configuration phase of your product installation. Oracle recommends that you write these values down.

This screen appears only if the Oracle home from which you started RCU contains Oracle Data Integrator or Oracle SOA Suite.

  • If Oracle Data Integrator is present, you will see the Custom Variables for Oracle Data Integrator.

  • If Oracle SOA Suite is present, you will see the Custom Variables for Oracle SOA Suite.

  • If both are present, you will see the custom variables for both products.

Use this screen to configure the desired tablespace mapping for the schemas you want to create.

When you click Next, a separate dialog window will appear asking you to confirm that you want to create these tablespaces. Click OK to proceed and dismiss the dialog window.

A second dialog window will appear showing the progress of tablespace creation. After this is complete, click OK to dismiss this window and go to the next screen.

Verify the information on this screen, then click Create to begin schema creation.

Review the information on this screen to verify that the operation was completed successfully. Click Close to complete the schema creation and dismiss RCU.

2.3.3 Verifying Schema Version Numbers

When the schemas are created in your database, RCU creates and maintains a table called schema_version_registry. This table contains schema information such as version number, component name and ID, date of creation and modification, and custom prefix.

To verify that the schemas are installed properly, run the following query after login in to SQL*Plus:

The comp_name argument retrieves the name of the component, and version retrieves the version number. For example:

2.4 Dropping Schemas

To drop schemas from the database, start RCU (see Section 2.2), then follow the instructions in Table 2-3.

Click on the screen name to see more detailed information for that screen. Unless otherwise noted, click Next to continue to the next screen.

Table 2-3 RCU Screens and Description for Dropping Schemas

ScreenInstructions and Action Required

Review the information on this screen, then click Drop to drop the schemas.

Note the location of the log files, then click Close to dismiss the screen.


2.4.1 Dropping Shared Tablespaces

Tablespaces that are shared among multiple schemas will not be dropped. For example, if you created both the Audit Services (for example, DEV_IAU) and Metadata Services (for example, DEV_MDS) schemas, both schemas would use the temporary tablespace DEV_IAS_TEMP (see Section A.8.1, 'Default Tablespace Mappings').

If you then drop the DEV_IAU schema, the DEV_IAS_TEMP tablespace would not be dropped since it is also being used by the DEV_MDS schema.

2.4.2 Dropping Schemas and Deleting Datafiles (Windows Only)

If you used RCU to drop a schema from a Windows-based database, and you want to recreate the dropped schema, you will have to manually delete datafiles that were not automatically removed when the schema was dropped.

Systemload

Navigate to the DB_HOMEoradata directory and manually delete any remaining datafiles before recreating the schema. Oracle recommends that you check this directory for any remaining datafiles before you attempt to recreate any dropped schema.
