could you please advice on how to measure replication performance
in Oracle, DB2 & MS SQL Server RDBMS installed in Windows servers ?
I've got two servers with databases installed and configured,
I prepared set of data using DBGEN from TPC and I already imported them
into databases.Also, I configured the replication.
Now I have to do a test with a few kind of replications method
implemented in these RDMBS, but I don't know which tool or reports or
"v$iews" should I use to measure replication performance.
The replication is configured only between the same RDBMS, I mean
Oracle <-Oracle, DB2 <-DB2 and MSSQL<-MSSQL.
Most of applications are great for checking performance of local DB,
not for replicated/distributed.
I've found description of CA Unicenter Database Performance Management
for distributed RDMBS, and I think it could be the right one, but I
can't find any demo or trial version :(
Could you please advice any place to download it, or other application,
script, description, just whatever.
Perhaps just any other idea how to check the replication mechanism
efficiency ?

Any answer you might receive regarding Oracle depends upon which
replication mechanism you choose and which release of Oracle you're
using. Absent such information it's difficult, if not impossible, to
supply an answer.
Since you can't, or won't, supply the above mentioned information take
a trip to http://tahiti.oracle.com and start reading the documentation
for the replication mechanism and release you're using. Monitoring
instructions are usually included in these docs. I could provide
information for Streams on 9.2.0, (and possibly 10.2) but the dearth of
information in your post, as well as having my own work to complete,
causes me to send you to the manuals. Should you decide to provide
more detail I, or someone else in this newsgroup, could possibly supply
a better response to your question.
As ye sow, so shall ye reap. Provide to us, we can provide to you.
It's that simple.

Your question, as stated, is impossible to answer with respect to
Oracle.
You have not provided a version number and replication might be
accomplished in a wide variety of ways depending on your requirements.
Among the possibilities:
Advanced Replication (many variations)
Streams (many variations)
Change Data Capture (3 different modes: Synchronous or Asynchronous?
Hotlog or Autolog?)
Data Guard (3 different modes: Maximum Protection, Maximum Availability,
and Maximum Performance)
You will find that depending on the Oracle option you choose you may
well find that neither SQL Server or DB2 has an equivalent technology.

Hi Mark,
For MS SQL Server, check out the subject "Monitoring Replication" in SQL
Server 2005 Books Online. Here's a link (copy and paste into the URL
field in Books Online to be taken to the subject directly):
ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v9/MS.SQLSVR.v9.en/rpldata9/html/f182f43a-6af8-45bc-a708-08d5f7a6984a.htm
And if you don't have Books Online installed, here's a link to the
internet copy: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms152751.aspx

Thanks for fast reply, guys.
Hugo, thanks for the link about MS SQL Server monitoring :)
DA Morgan&fitzjarrell, you're right. I'm sorry, my mistake.
Oracle version is 10gR2 10.2.0.1.0, IBM DB2 v8.1.7
and Microsoft product will be probably MS SQL Server 2005
At present I've got configured replication only for DB2,
as concerns Oracle - I'm working on it.
Actually, I'm going to test almost all kinds of replication method
offered by these RDBMS,
so I need the most uniwersal benchmark&monitoring tool for this.
I know that it's hard to advice, but believe me that since a few days
I'm just searching&looking for information about a software or
procedure to evaluate replication performance.
On usenet, ftp's, WWW, P2P, DBA forums, etc. well, just everywhere.
But it seems, that not a lot of admins need to make a replication
tests.
Thats why I decided to ask for help here .
Cheers,
Mark|||diesel wrote:

No such thing in the Oracle world. Different tools for different
requirements and different modes depending on your priority.
The faster the replication the more risk of data being lost. Here's
something to consider. Is the transaction completed when it is committed
on the primary box or is it completed when it is committed both locally
and at the replication site? What happens if the link between the two
goes down? Do you continue local processing and hope to catch up later
or do you stop all transactions? These are all very important questions.
To just be testing speed alone is sort of like the airplane pilot who
cuts the engines at 35,000 feet and at 1,500 feet announces to the
passengers that fuel economy is really improved.

And what I am cautioning you about is that replication performance is
a meaningless metric unless you are comparing technologies that produce
the same outcome. Not just when all is perfect but in real world
situations. I can make anything really fast if I don't care what happens
later when there is a network glitch.

I hope you do help ... but I see no evidence that you are really trying
to compare apples with apples. If you don't your will produce numbers.
Meaningless numbers ... but numbers. I suspect that is not your goal.
