Key Point #3
21
Networks for Moving Data
3 network choices
Network Ports (Full Rack)
No fibre channel
10 Gb/s Ethernet 16
40 Gb/s InfiniBand 8
Large MTU
IPoIB connected mode
Use all database servers
Active/active bonding on Ethernet
Requires customer switch support
Do not change InfiniBand to active/active
22
Bottleneck Not Always the Network
Non-network bottlenecks
Slow source system I/O
CPU to send and receive
# scp 1GB_file 192.168.20.139:/tmp
1GB_file 100% 1060MB 66.3MB/s 00:16
IB network Slow
CPU max
Small I/O
scp(1) 4KB I/O
23
Moving Data Direct to ASM
24
Staging Data
Staging space
DBFS
Recommended for best performance
