Description
Most of the services of the GRID infrastructure require
robust and
efficient database backends, providing high performances as
well as fault
tolerance mechanisms and fast disaster recovery procedures.
To this end, the Italian Tier-1, in collaboration with CERN
and the
other Tier-1s of the WLCG, has started a deployment and
production phase
of Oracle database services, that will be used e.g. to provide
backends for file catalogues such as LFC, condition
databases, storage
resource managers, mass storage systems like Castor-2, etc..
In this talk we give an overview of the service
infrastructure at CNAF,
describing how the various Oracle technologies - RAC, ASM,
RMAN,
Streams, GridControl, etc. - are used. We also present the
results
of some specific tests realized to validate and measure the
performance
of the system.
