Re: Unusable partition index -- working funny
I would check which index is being reported as unusable, and check the access path for the query when all indexes are useable. Since you have a statement level trigger, I suspect Oracle is producing an execution plan that dictate the use of index X. The plan executes, which means the trigger fires, but the execution engine is committed to using index X - which happens to be unusable, so the statement fails. On the second call, the session parameters have changed, so Oracle re-parses the update, and ignores the unusable index, choosing a different plan. Consequently the update can work. In the case where the index being used to access the data is useable (i.e. where only the index on the updated column is unusable), I would assume that Oracle makes the decision about updating indexes only after columns have been updated, therefore it can notice the effect of session switch in mid-statement.

The update that i sent you yesterday is updating a column on which there is a local bitmap index. There are also other local bitmsap indexes on that partitions. Yesterday i made all the local indexes pertaining to that partition UNUSABLE and we got the results that i posted yesterday..Today i went and made all the indexes usable and then made only the local index on the column which we are updating unusable while the rest of the local bitmap indexes were usable. and then the update stmt was run. There was NO problem at all. It ran the first time without giving the error of index being in the unusable state. That nmeans the trigger has fired. So what would be the explanation in this case. If i make only that local bitmap index unusable, it works ok but if i make all the local bitmap indexes unusable in that partition, we get the situation that i posted yesterday.. Thanks, Sathish.

By analogy, consider an update to an updatable join view which defaults to using a hash join. If you create a before row update trigger to disable hash joins, would you expect Oracle to not do a hash join the first time the statement executes ?

It's called a fast commit BECAUSE it doesn't generate redo (except for a tiny bit that describes the change to the transaction table entry in the segment header block that marked the transaction as active). It doesn't need to generate redo because it's going to leave (most of) the lock and change information on the blocks that have been changed, and let some other visiter to the blocks clean up the mess. 2)Is delayed cleanout generate redo? Delayed block cleanout - where a later operation simply READS a messy block and cleans it up (by referring back to the transaction table to get the necessary commit details) will generate redo. Delayed-logging block cleanout - which occurs when the first transactions cleans out a few of the blocks it has dirtied but does not log the cleanout - is effectively not going to generate redo, as the next transaction to MODIFY the date will generate some undo which looks as if it started from a clean block, rather than the partly dirty block that is really there - so the cleanout is effectively free. 3)In a block dump even after transactions commit why it shows lock 1 in ITL? Because Oracle doesn't clean the block out properly, it will either not revisit it at all (1), or just revisit the ITL and a couple of header bytes (2). Thanks in advance.

Re: Re: pga_aggregate_target and a memory leak
Im not sure I see what the size of the PAT has to do with a memory leak. On metalink there is a laundry list of PGA things that were supposedly causing memory leaks prior to 9.2.0.4. Are you certain its PAT causing it? Maybe they didnt fix all the memory leaks with the PGA in general? has anyone had any production issues with pga memory leaks?

Oracle is supposed to grab the memory it needs, if available, regardless of the P_A_T setting. Also, did your system go in to excessive paging or swapping? Yes, it did with a large P_A_T. I've been curious as to what the effects would be of having P_A_T too low. I saw more disk sorts.. As time permits, I will play with event 10032, 10033 trace for sorts to see what's going on.. Oracle is supposed to grab whatever memory it needs. I'm assuming at this point that doing so involves a different code path as it needs to alloc the memory.

And yes, I do think that 15 indexes is a bit excessive but I can't help it at the moment (3rd party, packaged application...)

That's where we plan to do the startup work. When needed the forms will then do request/release. You could probably do the thing just as easily by issuing a select for update against a group-id row in a table - but dbms_lock makes it easier because it can bypass the normal commit activity. That is the problem with Forms. It's not always easy to streamline where a commit is gonna be done or not. In fact, the user can initiate the commit or rollback at any stage.

Re: Re: pga_aggregate_target and a memory leak

RE: Healty ratio of index segment size vs table segment size?
Branimir Beware of simple ratios. The logic is seductive. It seems likely that an easy way to find unnecessary indexes is to look at a ratio such as you describe. And it shouldn't pose much load on a system to do a quick report on ratio. But what would it mean in practice? Just go around dropping indexes on tables that exceed their quota? I haven't used the index monitoring feature, and a cautious DBA always makes a small test before widespread deployment, but from what I've been told, the monitoring feature is pretty low overhead.

RE: data manipulation of a large unix file
Ryan - Can you provide more details? Typically ksh scripts are much, much more efficient than alternate methods, such as manipulating data within the database. Depending on which method you are using to measure CPU usage, you may be seeing 1/4 of one CPU. But even if your script is using a full CPU, that may not be unreasonable. The real question is how long the CPU is used. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

Re: Automatic or Uniform allocation
Brad, For LMT's I prefer uniform sizing that I can define to meet the needs of the data. If you use automatic the extend sizes will change drimatically as the number if extends increase. With a little planning you can have little waste in the tablespace and use the tablespace for multiple tables of the same size requirements. We have used the partitioning and LMT's for the yearly data we have, about 5 gig per table per year and the extend count is only around 100 with minimal free space. It makes it easier in the planning stage if you can keep it simple. Ron [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/22/2004 10:14:34 AM for LMTs... Advantages in uniform versus automatic?

RE: Automatic or Uniform allocation
We need to start moving these discussions to freelists per Jared's note. Brad - I agree with Ron. I think it is critical to read How to quit defragmenting . . . before making the change to ensure you clearly understand the concepts and receive the benefits.

RE: ADMIN PLZ REPLY - FW: !!Please Read - Oracle-L moving!!
Yes, this is legitimate. Jared and I have been talking recently about this. This list has just outgrown what Fat City can handle. While I'd like to think that I've always provided adequate-to-good service for the list, it's never been great, and with the list growing, and traffic growing, my concern is that I just won't be able to continue to give the list good service. It makes me sick to think that, because I really have enjoyed giving back to the Oracle-L community, and because y'all have supported ME so well in the past, but I just don't want to see anything deteriorate simply because the volume exceeds what we can handle here. The list archives here will be available as long as Fat City continues to be in existence, so those of you who are searching for old topics are quite welcome to use the facilities here.

RE: How to find the last execution time of a Procedure.
not easily, but you could probably scan through x$kglob (frequently) and see if the name exists ... if it is, it means it was loaded for execution. Another solution might be to modify old code and have them add a row in a separate table using autonomous transaction to indicate they got executed. Then wait for couple of months and it will give you some good idea. Of course people who know more than I do will have better solutions.

Well, I don't know about anyone else, but I make use of it to synchronize data upload programs for our testers.

RE: Re: pga_aggregate_target and a memory leak
I have had a problem on my 9i database for three weeks. I am getting a ORA-7445 error which is pointing to some memory problems. It is occurring during the CTX_DOC.FILTER process. We are running this process from a custom PL/SQL package that is being initiated from an Oracle Job. However, we still have the problem when we run it from a crontab job.

Re: any over head with DBMS_STATS.ALTER_DATABASE_TABLE_MONITORING
The number of rows affected by an SQL statement is something that has been available to Oracle for a long time. Monitoring just records that number in a memory structure. I'd guess the memory structure is a hash table, and there are no latches protecting it (so I've heard, and I can't see any in x$ksllt) so the memory update is (a) rapid (b) subject to lost data. At regular intervals (3 hours for older versions, 15 minutes for newer) smon copies the data from memory to the mon_mod$ table. The overhead is small. But: a)The results are not corrected on rollback b)Concurrent changes to the count get lost c)There was at least one bug relating to partitioned tables with large numbers of partitions reported on metalink some time ago.

Re: any over head with DBMS_STATS.ALTER_DATABASE_TABLE_MONITORING
Too bad Steve Adams' site is not available, cuz that's the place to be. He says it better than I can, so I've appended a bit of info from him. I'd suggest getting to Steve's site as soon as it's up. We have monitoring enabled on our 9.2.0.4 database, but it's not currently heavily used. But so far, it's been great. From Steve Adam's July 2000 newsletter (http://www.ixora.com.au/newsletter/2000_07.htm, line spacing below is mine): Despite the potential for improved statistics gathering, many DBAs have not yet adopted modification monitoring. One of the concerns that people have is that the monitoring might have a significant performance overhead. In fact, this is not the case. The modification counts are maintained in an efficient hash table is the SGA, and are updated without the protection of a latch (although the structure of the hash table itself is protected by the hash table modification latch). Even in heavy OLTP environments, the cost of maintaining the modification counts is likely to be less than 1% of additional CPU usage. However, because of the latch-free nature of the feature, the modification counts are not guaranteed to be accurate. Another source of potential inaccuracy is that if a transaction is rolled back, its changes to the modification counts are not rolled back as well. These inaccuracies have been allowed by Oracle to keep the performance overhead of this feature minimal. Therefore, you can use modification monitoring with confidence that it will not affect performance significantly, while giving you a very helpful indication of which tables may have stale statistics. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Especially on high transaction tables?

Sql Tuning Thoughts?
This statement is from a batch program within a pl/sql procedure. (Also, I have many similar ones within the process) The policy table has approximately 6.2 million rows. The procedure is to incrementally(daily) build an extract table from multiple tables. The extract table is then used for reporting purposes. The statement performs well per policy, however it is being executed 43,000+ times. Is there a design option available to me to reduce the number of executions and be more scaleable?

Why not process the trace file with 9i tkprof?
It will nicely summarize the wait times for those events.
After seeing those unique wait events, your boss may ask for the
wait times next!! Be proactive

Since you're doing an aggregate function, you may want to investigate using materialized views here. Since, I'm assuming, policy effective dates aren't something that changes on a minute-to-minute basis, you could set up a materialized view that refreshed every night and would answer this question in nothing flat.

RE: How to find the last execution time of a Procedure.
Thanks for input Raj. I was also thinking on the same lines (Querying v$views periodically and store it in some metadata table) if there is no easier way to figure out from DBA_ views. As far as changing the production code, as you know, It has to go thru the dev/test databases first and then go thru the release process to implement into the production. It is painful process.

Re: RE: Has anyone done any scalability work on dbms_lock?
I came across a very nice example a while ago where there were 4 concurrent sessions feeding data into a holding table, and one session consuming from the table. The rules said that the consumer could not run while the producers were loading the table, but multiple producers were allowed to run. It was easy to implement using dbms_lock - the producers ran a pl/sql loop that requested a share lock (mode 4) on a named resource, and committed at the end of each loop; the consumer also ran a loop but requested an exclusive lock (mode 6) on the same named resource and committed at the end of each loop. Both programs had a little sleep time built in to the loops after the commit. When the consumer got its lock, the producers waited. When the consumer committed, the producers got in, and the the consumer queued on them when it next asked for its lock.

Re: Startup Migrate
Joe, Here's brief from metalink.. for details Check this Doc ID: 252273.1 STARTUP MIGRATE was introduced in 9.2 as a mechanism to be sure that most everything that needs to be done to run an upgrade script or a patch script is done automatically. In the past, customers were expected to adjust certain initialization parameters prior to beginning an upgrade or applying a a patch, but most of this is now done automatically by STARTUP MIGRATE. When a customer starts a database in MIGRATE mode, the following ALTER SYSTEM commands will be set automatically: ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION; ALTER SYSTEM SET _SYSTEM_TRIG_ENABLED=FALSE SCOPE=MEMORY; ALTER SYSTEM SET JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES=0 SCOPE=MEMORY; ALTER SYSTEM SET AQ_TM_PROCESSES=0 SCOPE=MEMORY; ALTER SESSION SET NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS=BYTE; Regards, ..Ponnusamy At 01:14 PM 1/22/2004 -0800, Joe LaCascio wrote: I'm looking at the notes to apply patch 4 to Oracle 9.2.0.3.

RE: Startup Migrate
Joe, You did not mention about platform. I just did migration from 8.1.7.4 to 9.2.0.4 today on Windows. That upgrade was manul. After connecting with database you have to issue command startup migrate pfile=init_SID.ora file. Please give complete/absolute path of this file.

If you're willing to go to the trouble of setting up Perl, DBI, DBD::Oracle, DBD::Chart and its dependent libs ( graphics ), I'll send the Perl/Shell stuff I use to generate charts.

RE: Re: pga_aggregate_target and a memory leak
Yes I have and still have a problem with pga memory leak When using pl/sql tables. I'm on 9i performance and tuning course at oracle Now and discussed this with the teacher. He went looking and found a bug Stating that on 9i (9.2.0.2 and further) there seems to be a limit on total pga per process of 1Gb. Setting pat=0 and work_area_size manual gave me a workaround for my production problem but with a test of just a simple Got a decent explanation today that pat=0 gives me more memory for pl/sql Tables because there are always in pga and pat is about sort areas so setting pat=0 gives more memory and less possibility of not having enough. Pl/sql procedure assigning values to an array of number keeps reproducing A pl/sql storage error also with pat=0 and wasp=manual. I left the bug number in my notes, can get that tomorrow if somebody is interested.

Oracle is supposed to grab the memory it needs, if available, regardless of the P_A_T setting. Also, did your system go in to excessive paging or swapping? Yes, it did with a large P_A_T. I've been curious as to what the effects would be of having P_A_T too low. I saw more disk sorts.. As time permits, I will play with event 10032, 10033 trace for sorts to see what's going on.. Oracle is supposed to grab whatever memory it needs. I'm assuming at this point that doing so involves a different code path as it needs to alloc the memory.
