Oracle VM and port mirroring

User_HFISHNov 7 2019

Hi,

We want to audit network connections inside of OVM.

For example, we have OVM 3.3 on few physical hosts (lets, say virt-1, virt-2, virt-3...), each of them running few guests.

virt-1: guest-1, guest-2

virt-2: guest-3, guest-4

For communication between physical hosts (virt-1 -> virt-2) and I guess communication between guests running on different hosts (guest-1 -> guest-3) we will use port mirroring on switches.

How can we capture/mirror traffic between guests on same host (ie, guest-1 -> guest-2)?

In vmware, it is done in vswitch/vmware directly as part of host configuration. How can we do this in OVM?

Thank you for help,

Regards,

Jan Klepek

Hello d670...

I would try this code:

DECLARE
  p_studentid   NUMBER;
  v_result      VARCHAR2(20);  
BEGIN  
  p_studentid := 1;

  FOR rec_result IN (SELECT students.firstname
                          , test_history.score
                          , test_id.test_name
                          , test_id.passing_grade  
                       FROM students  
                       JOIN test_history  
                         ON students.STUDENT_ID = test_history.student_id  
                       JOIN test_id  
                         ON test_id.test_id = test_history.test_id  
                      WHERE students.student_id = p_studentid  
                        AND test_history.SCORE < test_id.passing_grade   -->  This row has to be deleted!
                    )
  LOOP
     IF rec_result.score < rec_result.passing_grade 
      THEN v_result := 'Fail';
      ELSE v_result := 'Pass';
     END IF; 

     DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (rec_result.firstname || ' ' || TO_CHAR(rec_result.score) || ' ' || rec_result.test_name || ' ' || TO_CHAR(rec_result.passing_grade) || ' ' || 'Result = ' || v_result);    
  END LOOP;  

END;  
/

I hope it helps.

Regards, David

However, if the student has passed it just returns 'Result = Pass' and fails to return their name, tests, grade and passing grade.

If you find yourself wanting a function that returns multiple values, you would generally want to either
- create a procedure that has multiple OUT parameters
- create a function that returns an object type that encapsulates the values you want to return

can functions return multiple values?

CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE user_data_type AS OBJECT(val1 NUMBER(15), val2 NUMBER(15));
/

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION GET_EMPLOYEE_AND_USER(in_login IN fnd_user.user_name%TYPE)
  RETURN user_data_type AS

  out_var user_data_type;

  CURSOR buffer_cur IS
   SELECT f.user_id, f.employee_id FROM Fnd_User f WHERE f.user_name = in_login;

BEGIN 
  OPEN buffer_cur;
  FETCH buffer_cur INTO out_var.val1, out_var.val2;

  CLOSE buffer_cur;
  RETURN out_var;
END GET_EMPLOYEE_AND_USER;

Hi Folks

Thank you very much for your help. I should have mentioned that i needed to do this in a parameterised cursor. Despite your answers working perfectly, i realised i could just move the DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE inside the loop and i ended up solving my own problem.

Your code looks much better though!!!

Thanks again

Ben
