• Database Initialization Parameters for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12


    In This Document

    The most current version of this document can be obtained in My Oracle Support Document 396009.1.

    There is a change log at the end of this document.

    Key Points

    • The document consists of a common section, which provides a common set of database initialization parameters used for all releases of the Oracle Database, followed by several release-specific sections, which list parameters and settings required for a particular release of the Oracle Database.
    • Put together, the parameters from the common section and appropriate release-specific section formulate a complete set of database initialization parameters.
    • Parameters may appear on a "removal list" because they are obsolete; because the default value is required and no other value may be set; or to cater for certain special cases where a non-default value has to be set to meet specific needs (currently, there is only one such case, which is described in Section 7).
    • In the various parameter lists, check for comments giving any platform-specific exceptions. Such comments will apply only to the exact platform mentioned: for example, a reference to HP-UX (PA-RISC) will not apply to HP-UX (Itanium IA-64).
    • The "X" notation used in the release-specific section denotes all patchset releases within that major version. For example, "10.2.0.X" refers to all releases of 10.2.0, such as 10.2.0.2 and 10.2.0.3.
    • Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 requires Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.2) Enterprise Edition as a minimum release level and edition. No earlier releases, or other editions of any release, may be used.
    • Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2 requires Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.3) Enterprise Edition as a minimum release level and edition. No earlier releases, or other editions of any release, may be used. Refer to Section 6: Additional Database Initialization Parameters For Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.
    • Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.3 customers with Oracle Database 12c Release 1 Version 12.1.0.2 implementing Oracle Database In-Memory should refer to Oracle Database Administrator's Guide 12c Release 1 (12.1) E41484 for the required set of database initialization parameters.

    Section 1: Common Database Initialization Parameters For All Releases

    This section lists the database initialization parameters that are common across releases of the Oracle Database. You should refer to it in conjunction with the relevant release-specific section.

    Note: All parameters listed in this section should be set as stated, unless your particular release-specific section instructs otherwise.

    The parameter values provided in this document reflect a small instance configuration (see Section 9). You should adjust the relevant parameters based on the number of active Oracle E-Business Suite users. In addition, you should investigate any parameters that are set but not mentioned in this document.

    # Common Database Initialization Parameters

    # The following represents the common database initialization
    # parameters file for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.
    # Release-specific parameters are included in the respective release
    # section. The release-specific parameters should be appended to the
    # common database initialization parameter file.
    #
    # There are numerous mandatory database initialization parameters.
    # Their settings must not be altered. The use of values other than 
    # those provided in this document will not be supported unless Oracle
    # Support has specifically instructed you to alter these parameters
    # from their mandatory settings. 

    # Mandatory parameters are denoted with the #MP symbol as a
    # comment. This includes parameters such as NLS and optimizer
    # related parameters.

    # The remaining (non-mandatory) parameters relate to either sizing or
    # configuration requirements that are specific to customer environments 
    # or system capacity. A sizing table provides recommendations and 
    # guidelines based on the number of deployed and active Oracle 
    # E-Business Suite users. Customers can adjust these parameters as per 
    # their environment and system resource capacity.

    # for most customers it matches the instance name. It should not
    # normally be necessary to change the database name, except for
    # the purposes of database cloning.

    # There should be at least two control files, preferably three,
    # located on different volumes in case one of the volumes fails.
    # Control files can expand, hence you should allow at least 20M
    # per file for growth.

    # Cache parameters 

    # For Oracle 10g and 11g, the automatic SGA tuning option (sga_target)
    # is required. This avoids the need for individual tuning of the different
    # caches, such as the buffer cache, shared pool, and large pool. Use
    # of the automatic SGA tuning option also improves manageability and
    # overall performance.
    #
    # sga_target refers to the total size of the SGA. This includes
    # all the sub-caches, such as the buffer cache, log buffer,
    # shared pool, and large pool. The sizing table in the
    # section Database Initialization Parameter Sizing contains
    # sizing recommendations for sga_target.
    #
    # # When the automatic SGA tuning option is used to dynamically size
    # the individual caches, it is recommended to use a Server Parameter
    # file (SPFILE) to store the initialization parameter values.
    # Using an SPFILE allows the dynamically-adjusted values to persist
    # across restarts. Refer to the Oracle Database Administrator's

    # within the SGA, and how frequently the redo logs are checkpointed
    # (when all dirty buffers written to disk and a new recovery point
    # is created).

    # A size of 10MB for the log buffer is a reasonable value for
    # Oracle E-Business Suite. This represents a balance between
    # concurrent programs and online users. The value of log_buffer
    # must be a multiple of redo block size (normally 512 bytes).

    #
    # cursor_space_for_time parameter

    # Cursor space for time is an optimization strategy that
    # results in holding pins on cursors and their associated
    # frames/buffers for longer periods of time. The pins are held
    # until the cursor is closed, instead of at the end-of-fetch
    # (normal behavior). This reduces library cache pin traffic,
    # which reduces library cache latch gets. Setting cursor space 
    # for time to TRUE can be useful for large Oracle E-Business
    # Suite environments, where library cache latch contention

    # (specifically due to pin gets) can be a performance issue. 

    # Cursor space for time requires at least a 50% increase in the
    # size of the shared pool because of the frames/buffers. If AWR
    # or Statspack reports show that the waits for library cache latch
    # gets are significant, and the latch gets are due to pin
    # requests, then cursor space for time can be used to improve
    # performance.

    # It is important to note that library cache latch contention can
    # be caused by numerous different factors, including the use of
    # non-sharable SQL (i.e. literals), lack of space, frequent
    # loads/unloads, invalidation, patching, gathering statistics
    # frequently and during peak periods, and pin requests.
    # Cursor space for time is designed to optimize the pin requests
    # only, and will not reduce latch contention for other issues.

    # enable advanced queue to submit background jobs.

    # Starting from 10gR1, aq_tm_processes is auto-tuned.
    # Omitting this parameter has not, however, been tested with
    # Oracle E-Business Suite. The minimum required value is 1 and
    # should be increased to resolve lengthy queues.
    #
    # Usually, job_queue_processes should typically be be set to a value of 2
    # for optimal performance. However, the value can be tuned to meet the
    # specific requirements of the Workflow module and customer needs,

    # listener registration of any non default (1521) ports.

    Section 7: Using System Managed Undo (SMU)

    As mentioned for the parameters related to system undo, the database releases certified for use with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 only support the use of system managed undo (SMU). SMU is more efficient than traditional rollback segments and reduces the possibility of snapshot too old (ORA-1555) errors.

    Note the following points about the undo_retention parameter:

    • The values given for undo_retention are for guidance only. This parameter should be adjusted according to the elapse times of the concurrent jobs, and corresponding commit windows.
    • There is no need to specify a value for undo_retention on Oracle 10g or 11g or 12c based systems, because it is set automatically as part of automatic undo tuning.
    • Setting this parameter to a value higher than 900 (the default) is recommended if you experience "ORA-1555: Snapshot too old" errors.
    • Automatic undo is not supported for LOBS.

    Section 8: Temporary Tablespace Setup

    It is recommended that the temporary tablespace for Oracle E-Business Suite users be created using locally managed temp files with uniform extent sizes of 128K. The 128K extent size is recommended because numerous modules, such as Pricing and Planning, make extensive use of global temporary tables which also reside in the temporary tablespace. Since each user instantiates a temporary segment for these tables, large extent sizes may result in space allocation failures.

    The following is an example of creating a locally managed temporary tablespace with temp files:

    SQL>drop tablespace temp;
    SQL>create temporary tablespace temp
    tempfile '/d2/prodr12/dbf/temp01.dbf' size 2000M reuse
    extent management local
    uniform size 128K;

    Section 9: Database Initialization Parameter Sizing

    This section provides sizing recommendations based on the active Oracle E-Business Suite user counts. The following table should be used to size the relevant parameters:

    Parameter Name Development or Test Instance 11-100 Users 101-500 Users 501-1000 Users 1001-2000 Users
    processes 200
    200 800 1200 2500

    shared_pool_reserved_size (csp) N/A N/A N/A 180M 300M
    shared_pool_size (no csp) 400M 600M 800M 1000M 2000M
    shared_pool_reserved_size (no csp) 40M 60M 80M 100M 100M
    pga_aggregate_target 1G 2G 4G 10G 20G
    Total Memory Required Footnote 2 ~ 2 GB ~ 3 GB ~ 6 GB ~ 13 GB ~ 34 GB

    Footnote 1

    • The parameter sga_target should be used for Oracle 10g or 11g or 12c based environments such as Release 12. This replaces the parameter db_cache_size, which was used in Oracle 9i based environments. Also, it is not necessary to set the parameter undo_retention for 10g or 11g or 12c-based systems, since undo retention is set automatically as part of automatic undo tuning.
    • Enabling the 11g or 12c Automatic Memory Management (AMM) feature is supported in EBS, and has been found to be useful in scenarios where memory is limited, as it will dynamically adjust the SGA and PGA pool sizes. AMM is enabled by using the memory_target and memory_max_target initialization parameters. MEMORY_TARGET specifies the system-wide sharable memory for Oracle to use when dynamically controlling the SGA and PGA as workloads change. The memory_max_target parameter specifies the maximum size that memory_target may take. AMM has proven useful for small to mid-range systems as it simplifies both the configuration and management. However, many customers with large production systems have experienced better performance with manually sized pools (or large minimum values for the pools). On Linux, Hugepages has resulted in improved performance; however, this configuration is not compatible with AMM. For large mission-critical applications systems, it is advisable to set sga_target with a minimum fixed value for shared_pool_size and pga_aggregate_target.

    Footnote 2

    • The total memory required refers to the amount of memory required for the database instance and associated memory, including the SGA and the PGA. You should ensure that your system has sufficient available memory in order to support the values provided above. The values provided above should be adjusted based on available memory so as to prevent paging and swapping.

    General Notes on Table

    • "Development or Test instance" refers to a small instance used only for development or testing, with no more than 10 users.

    • The range of user counts provided above refers to active Oracle E-Business Suite users, not total or named users. For example, if you plan to support a maximum of 500 active Oracle E-Business Suite users, then you should use the sizing as per the range 101-500 users.

    • The parameter values provided in this document reflect a small instance configuration, and you should adjust the relevant parameters based on the Oracle E-Business Suite user counts as listed in the table above.

    • The "csp" and "no csp" options of the shared pool parameters refer to the use of cursor_space_for_time, which is documented in the common database initialization parameters section.

      Note: Enabling cursor_space_for_time can result in significantly larger shared pool requirements.
