Oracle Financials Application Scripts
oracle_all.zip (23.4 KB)
The Oracle Financial Applications scripts are based on a standard set of benchmark transactions. These transactions are used to measure the performance of servers that run the application and database components of the Oracle applications. Because the Oracle financial applications can be executed in a three-tier configuration, each of the transactions has two scripts associated with it, a Tier 1 and a Tier 2 script. If you have, or plan to, deploy the applications on separate server computers for the application and database components, you can use the tier 1 scripts to emulate the traffic between the end user computer and the application server, and the tier 2 scripts to emulate the traffic between the application server and the database server. We expect that in many cases you will only want to use either the tier 1 or the tier 2 scripts, depending on the portions of the your network that you want to test at the time. Both types of scripts may be combined in a single test to simultaneously test the network paths between all three types of computers involved in a transaction.
Packet Blaster - Long Send
packetl.scr (490 B)
The PACKETL script sends packets, as quickly as possible, without waiting for any kind of response. This is NOT a good test for gathering performance information. Measurements can be inaccurate, because the script ends without waiting for the receiving side to catch up. This test uses the FLUSH script command. While it has no effect on TCP/IP, it causes APPC to send data immediately, rather than waiting to fill buffers.
Packet Blaster Reversed - Long Receive
packetlr.scr (499 B)
The PACKETLR script receives packets, as quickly as possible, without waiting for any kind of response. This script is similar to PACKETL.SCR, but Endpoint 1 issues Receives instead of Sends. Measurements are more accurate, since Endpoint 1 knows exactly how many bytes have been received successfully in each timing record.
