log file sync and LGWR wait on LNS Event - ADDM [message #502757]

Hi Folks,

The attached ADDM report shows LGWR wait on LNS and
log file sync as Top 5 events on AWR and ADDM report for couple of days.

I'm suspecting the possible cause of these event might be
"LGWR is unable to post the processes fast enough, due to excessive commits" or Disk I/O performance to log files is not good enough.

Please advise.

Thanks
Parikshit

The above posted lines do not appear in file. This my view on
events -
a)LGWR wait on LNS
b) log file sync

The attached file shows the above two listed events.

Thanks

Can you post the AWR report, please? It is generally more use than the ADDM report.

Top 5 Timed Events show nothing about LGWR or LNS

You should have explicitly mentioned that this was RAC environment.

post SQL & results that provide evidence a problem exists that needs to be solved.

I don't think ADDM was any use for RAC back with 10g.

Those global cache buffer busy and current block busy wait events are the ones I would look at. They are giving you an awful CPU time to DB time ratio. Looking at the "SQL ordered by cluster wait time" section you can see the code that is hitting the problem: those insert statements, which are giving you the block contention between the instances. I would look at the segments involved. Can you reverse key the indexes? Or hash partition the tables? And of course, are you using automatic segment space management?

Yes, We are using Locally managed Table sapce and ASSM. Looking at the 'Sql ordered by cluster wait time
' and both 'Segments by Global Cache Buffer Busy Waits', "Segments By Current Blocks Received' points
some tables and indexes which were hid hardest and travel most acorss the interconnect. The impacted indexes
are concatenated indexes and there is no primary index based on sequence.

One more thing that I observed that 'Cluster wait time and Elapsed Time' for those queries are almost
same.

Most of the impacted tables are not partitioned and have good volume of data except one which is List-partitioned but none
of the index is local-prefixed or non-prefixed on these tables

1) I feel changing them to partition and creating local-prefixed or non-prefixed might help to reduce above events
2) Increase the SGA

>2) Increase the SGA
based only upon the belief that BIGGER is always BETTER?
randomly changing parameters is not a good approach to DB tuning.
How will you determine when SGA is properly sized?

Bigger is always better that's not the belief. Running the ADDM report suggesting to increase SGA from x size to x+y.

What you experts suggest; I should try focus on point#1 at this moment without tweaking the SGA.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks

Since I have no clear understanding what is wrong or needs to be fixed, therefore I am unable to offer any "solution".

Hash partitioning your tables and indexes might reduce the contention, if concurrent inserts will then go into different partitions. You'll need to find a partitioning algorithm that will result in some partitions having an affinity to each instance. But you have to be absolutely certain of what will happen. A partitioning strategy that works for your inserts might be a disaster for your queries.
As for memory, well, I always do what the advisors tell me to do.
