Hi!

And make sure to put everything in the same file (API, SQL, FLTR, ESCL).
That will make it easier to follow.

Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://www.rrr.se

* RRR|Log - Performance issues or elusive bugs? Analyze your Remedy logs.
* RRR|Translator - Manage and automate your language translations.

 I would add in SQL logging.  I bet there is some DB activity that makes
 up for this gap.

 Unfortunately there's nothing in the API log to show - it calls +CE on
 HPD:Help Desk to create the entry - the next item in the API log is
 after the entry is created.  That's a 39 second stretch during which the
 filter items I mentioned are occurring.

 The snippet below is directly from the filter log - these lines are
 consecutive - I just shaved off the beginning parts of the lines in my
 original post for readability.

 The two consecutive entries from the arfilter log are verbatim below:

 FLTR TID: 09 RPC ID: 029441 Queue: Fast  
 Client-RPC: 390620USER: YNZJH0
 /* Tue Apr 01 2008 11:08:00.5076 */ End of filter processing

 FLTR TID: 09 RPC ID: 029441 Queue: Fast

   Notice the three second gap between those two - there is NOTHING
 else going on anywhere else in the SQL or API logs to indicate some
 processing - it's just three seconds of the nothing in all of the logs.
 Every time there's a end of filter processing' phase message we just
 stop for 3 seconds.

   In my 39-second Incident creation time there are a total of 10
 of these gaps - 30 seconds where absolutely nothing appears to be

Nope.  Nothing - I checked that as wellthe longest SQL statement
takes about 0.0176 seconds to complete in the entire log and during this
time there's no activity.
 
There's literally NOTHING going on - at least none of the log files

Disregard my last update.
 
This speed problem is caused by Oracle update to the LOBs.

What about network delays?  Are you moving a large amount of data over the
network and that is causing the delay?  Just an idea.

Re: Mysterious gap in log files.

2008-04-02 Thread Misi Mladoniczky
Hi!

Please provide us with the surrounding log lines with the full API-call
with all FLTR and SQL lines that belongs to that call.

The server performs various internal stuff at times, such as refreshing
the ar.cfg-file and throwing out inactive users. These type of thing may
show as SQL-rows if SQL is involved. Some of these things does not have an
RPC ID attached to them.

I would be surprised if this happens in the middle of your call. It should
be at the beginning or end of the API...

Did you have other users that performed things at the same time? It could
affect the responsiveness of the database. One such thing could be the
locking of the arschema table.

 Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://rrr.se

 takes about 0.0176 seconds to complete in the entire log and during this

Tue Apr 01 2008 11:08:06.6404 */ End of filter processing

Notice the three second gap between those two - there is NOTHING
else going on anywhere else in the SQL or API logs to indicate some
processing - it's just three seconds of the nothing in all of the logs.
Every time there's a end of filter processing' phase message we just
stop for 3 seconds.
 
In my 39-second Incident creation time there are a total of 10
of these gaps - 30 seconds where absolutely nothing appears to be
happening.
 
Keep in mind this is a large solaris server and I'm the only one
on it - there's no lack of server resources.  We've got plenty of
hamsters/wheels/etc to power this thing.

Re: Mysterious gap in log files.

I would add in SQL logging.  I bet there is some DB activity that makes
up for this gap.

Unfortunately there's nothing in the API log to show - it calls +CE on
HPD:Help Desk to create the entry - the next item in the API log is
after the entry is created.  That's a 39 second stretch during which the
filter items I mentioned are occurring.
 
The snippet below is directly from the filter log - these lines are
consecutive - I just shaved off the beginning parts of the lines in my
original post for readability.
 
The two consecutive entries from the arfilter log are verbatim below:
 
FLTR TID: 09 RPC ID: 029441 Queue: Fast  
Client-RPC: 390620USER: YNZJH0
 /* Tue Apr 01 2008 11:08:00.5076 */ End of filter processing
(phase 1) -- Operation - CREATE on SYS:Action - NULL
FLTR TID: 09 RPC ID: 029441 Queue: Fast  
Client-RPC: 390620USER: YNZJH0
 /* Tue Apr 01 2008 11:08:03.5168 */ End of filter processing
(phase 2) -- Operation - CREATE on SLM:Measurement - 094

** Post the filter/api log snippets that show the gap with the TID and
RPC ID included.

I am trying to tighten up the time it takes to create a new
Incident in IM 7.03 (ARS 7.01, Solaris, remote oracle DB).
 
I've checked the threads/queues quite thoroughly and they
appears to be fine - there's plenty of available time queue time.
However, in the filter log there are multiple places where this happens:
 

Tue Apr 01 2008 11:08:03.6332 */ End of filter processing
(phase 1) -- Operation - CREATE on SYS:Action - NULL
Tue Apr 01 2008 11:08:06.6404 */ End of filter processing
