BENCHMARK MODIFICATIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Schema Modifications:
Tablespace sizes were increased to support the Injection rate. Table and index
initrans were modified. The C_CUSTOMERINVENTORY, M_WORKORDER and O_ORDERLINE tables were
horizontally partitioned. C_CUSTOMER, M_PARTS, M_BOM and M_INVENTORY were hash clustered.
Table locks were disabled during the run for all the tables using ALTER TABLE DISABLE TABLE LOCK.
Scripts to create the DB are included in the FDA.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Load Program Modifications:
The load program was not modified.
BENCHMARK CONFIGURATION INFORMATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Isolation Requirement Info:
The following Beans were deployed in READ_COMMITTED mode as per the benchmark
requirement:
Mfg - AssemblyEnt, BomEnt, ComponentEnt, LargeOrderEnt, PartEnt
Orders - ItemEnt
Supplier - SupplierCompEnt, SupplierEnt
All other beans were deployed using pessimistic locking mode such that all
selects including finders are issued with a FOR UPDATE clause in select
statement:
Corp - CustomerEnt, CustomerInventoryEnt
Mfg - InventoryEnt, WorkOrderEnt
Orders - OrderEnt, OrderLineEnt
Supplier - POEnt, POLineEnt, SComponentEnt
Util - SequenceEnt
The ItemEnt bean was cached for 20 minute intervals by setting
the following in bea-orders.xml deployment descriptor:
concurrency-strategy to ReadOnly
read-timeout-seconds to 1200
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Durability Requirement Info:
To ensure database durability, RAID 10 was used for the data files
and RAID 1 for database redo logs.
The application server used RAID 1 to provide durability for
server logs and JMS persistence filestores.
The RAID controller on the database and the application server machines were
configured with Write-Back cache policy supported with battery backup unit on
the controller.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Storage Requirement Info:
A 75 min run at Injection Rate of 2800 increased storage by 8.6 GB.
Extrapolating for 24 hrs we need 165 GB. The system is configured with
over 750GB of durable storage.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Argument Passing Semantics:
Oracle WebLogic Server Standard Edition uses pass-by-value as required by
the EJB specification.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER BENCHMARK INFORMATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The xerces implementation version 2.6.2 from xml.apache.org was used as it comes
packaged with Oracle Weblogic Server Standard Edition.
Requests were directed to the Appserver instances using DNS round robin, with
the database node acting as the DNS server.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On the database, incremental checkpointing ensured that no buffer will remain
dirty (in the cache) for more than the allowed time.
The only errors in the driver error logs are the application errors generated by
this benchmark.
