KeySummaryWorkaround

DLPX-64307

Environment refresh should ignore cluster discovery for VDBs

The following workaround should resolve the issue without Delphix support intervention.

For RAC databases

1. Add the instances to the clusterware configuration, ensuring you add all instances configured via Delphix. For example:

srvctl add instance -db <Database Name> -instance <Instance Name> -node <Node Name>

2. Refresh the environment. At this point, Delphix will add the instances back to the Delphix configuration, and you should be able to perform actions such as stop, start, disable, enable, etc.

From here, we recommend removing the clusterware configuration.

3. Stop the VDB via the Delphix GUI or CLI.
4. Remove the instances from clusterware

srvctl remove instance -db <Database Name> -instance <Instance Name>

5. Remove the database from clusterware

srvctl remove database -db <Database Name>

6. Refresh the environment.
7. Start the VDB via the Delphix GUI or CLI.

For RACOne databases

1. Stop the instance.

sqlplus "/as sysdba"
shutdown immediate

2. Ensure the RACOne configuration has the "instance prefix" configuration set.

[oracle@mwtestx1 ~]$ srvctl config database -d <vdb name> | grep "Instance name prefix"
Instance name prefix: VDB

3. If this is not set, then set it using

srvctl modify database -db <vdb name> -instance <instance prefix>

4. Set the pfile location to allow clusterware to start the instance

srvctl modify database -db <vdb name> -spfile <path to pfile>

The pfile is located in

<Delphix Mount base>/<VDB Name>/datafile/spfile.ora

5. Start the instance using clusterware

srvctl start database -d vdb

When querying the status of the database, it should now show a running instance. As an example:

[oracle@mwtestx1 ~]$  srvctl status database -d VDB
Instance VDB_1 is running on node mwtestx1
Online relocation: INACTIVE

6. Refresh the environment. At this point, Delphix will add the instances back to the Delphix configuration, and you should be able to perform actions such as stop, start, disable, enable, etc.

From here, we recommend removing the clusterware configuration.

7. Stop the VDB via the Delphix GUI or CLI.
8. Remove the database from clusterware

srvctl remove database -db <Database Name>

9. Remove the database from clusterware

srvctl remove database -db <Database Name>

10. Refresh the environment.
11. Start the VDB via the Delphix GUI or CLI.

DLPX-72186CDB logfile retention works incorrectly if a PDB has multiple timeflows pointing to the same CDB timeflowNo workaround.
DLPX-73409Duplicate listener entry gets generated in MDS if Oracle listener is manually started with non-uppercase name

Follow these steps:

1. Restart the listener without a name parameter so it displays in uppercase.

2. Update VDBs to use uppercase LISTENER.

3. Refresh the environment. lowercase listener will be removed and LISTENER updated appropriately.

DLPX-74749Oracle ENVIRONMENT_REFRESH_AND_DISCOVER job may fail with "The object OraclePDBConfig does not exist on the system"Manually run an environment refresh after the ENVIRONMENT_REFRESH_AND_DISCOVER job fails.

  2. Manually create (or rename) the TEMP tablespace in the production PDB$SEED database, take a new snapshot of the vPDB and provision from that snapshot to the vCDB.

DLPX-73224When provisioning from a non-multitenant source to a virtual pluggable database (vPDB), the post-plug hook script (dx-post-plug-hook.sh) should exit with the vPDB either closed or open unrestricted. If the vPDB is left open with restricted access subsequent Snapshots of the vPDB will fail with "oracle.ucp.UniversalConnectionPoolException"  and " java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01035 ORACLE only available to users with RESTRICTED SESSION privilege" .

To prevent the issue:  Ensure that the vPDB is either closed/mounted or open unrestricted when exiting from dx-post-plug-hook.sh.

After it has happened: close and reopen the vPDB.

DLPX-73357Rewinding an Oracle TDE-enabled vPDB to the snapshot before vPDB migration may fail with  exception.oracle.tde.export.keys.failed if all of the steps of the keystore merge procedure are not followed correctly

If the rewind still fails, provision a new vPDB from the required snapshot instead of the rewind operation.

DLPX-72181The "Restore Self-Service data container from the bookmark of sibling data container" operation may fail in an Oracle TDE environment with exception.oracle.tde.export.keys.failed if the keystore merge procedure is not followed correctly. In this case, the warning "Refresh operation on the TDE-configured container <target container> from the Timeflow of another container <sibling container> requires merging of the TDE keystores." will be displayed in the Delphix UI events logVerify that the procedure for merging the sibling keystores is followed correctly and re-attempt the self-service operation.

DLPX-73788Provisioning or enabling an Oracle TDE-enabled vPDB fails when $ORACLE_BASE is used in sqlnet.oraAny environment variable referenced in sqlnet.ora must always be set in the environment for the Delphix OS user. Ensure that the environment variable $ORACLE_BASE is set in the shell initialization file for the Delphix OS user and re-attempt the operation.
DLPX-73789If WALLET_ROOT initialization parameter is configured on a TDE-enabled dSource PDB, provisioning may fail since the auxiliary CDB instance uses dSource keystore location.If the provision fails, there are 2 workarounds:
1. Provide permissions to the Delphix OS user to create files in the location identified by WALLET_ROOT directory of the source keystore on the target host.
2. Modify the dSource database to not use WALLET_ROOT to identify the TDE keystore.
