- How can I prevent wrapping of data type objects?
-
The MT installer performs the steps to prevent wrapping data type installers. To verify this configuration:
- Log into the Administration Console.
- In the Domain Structure tree, select Services > Data Sources.
- On the Summary of Data Sources page, click OH-TRC-DS.
- Select the Connection Pool tab.
- Scroll down and click Advanced to show the advanced connection pool options.
- Verify if Wrap Data Types check box is not selected.
- Why is the application running out of connections?
-
- This issue can be resolved by increasing the number of connections as mentioned below.
- Better performance can be achieved by modifying the
following attributes:
- Initial Capacity
- Maximum Capacity: Maximum number of connections depends on the number of users. For example, if there are10 users the suggested number of connections should always be multiplied by 10 (that is, 10 *10 = 100).
- Capacity Increment: This value depends upon the multiplication factor being used to calculate maximum capacity (as per above scenario, it is 10).

- How can I increase the connection pool size?
-
Perform the following steps to increase the connection pool size:
- Log into the Oracle WebLogic Server console.
- Go to Services > Data Sources.
- Click the data source for which you want to increase the connection pool size.
- Go to the Connection Pool tab.
- Specify the number of connections in the attribute Maximum Capacity. Oracle recommends that you set this to at least 100.
- For details on this configuration, click More Info… right across this attribute.
- How can I increase the default row fetch size?
-
For better performance, increase the default row fetch size to 100 for the Oracle Healthcare Translational Research data source.
- Log into the Oracle WebLogic Server console.
- Go to Services > Data Sources under oh_domain.
- Select the data source OH-TRC-DS.
- Go to Configuration > Connection pool.
- Edit the property field
oracle.jdbc.defaultRowPrefetch
as shown in the following example:user=app oracle.jdbc.defaultRowPrefetch=100
- How can I increase the Heap Size?
-
To optimize performance, Oracle recommends that you update the heap memory of the Oracle WebLogic Server with the following values:
- Exadata
Initial Heap Size: 8 GB or higher
Max Heap Size: 816 GB or higher
- Non-Exadata
Initial Heap Size: 4 GB or higher
Max Heap Size: 8 GB or higher
There are different ways to increase the heap memory. For example, to change the Java Heap size for a managed server:
- If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit.
- In the left pane of the console, expand Environment > Servers.
- In the Servers table, click the managed server where Oracle Healthcare Translational Research is deployed to configure.
- On the Configuration tab, click Server Start.
- In the Arguments field, specify the
Java option to increase the initial and maximum heap size.
For example,
-Xms8G -Xmx16G, for Exadata -Xms4G -Xmx8G, for Non-Exadata
- Click Save.
- To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes. Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart.
- After you finish, you must restart the managed server, so it uses the new heap values.
- Exadata
