RE: APPEND hint (Was: Which is faster??)
Hi Yong, I don't think that's right. Try it on a table with no indexes, and dump the redo and undo blocks afterwards. My tests show that there is no row level redo (layer 11) except against the data dictionary tables for space management, regardless of whether the table or tablespace is defined as NOLOGGING. The undo is correspondingly trivial. However, if there are indexes then you get lots of index redo (layer 10) and corresponding undo. @ Regards, @ Steve Adams @ http://www.ixora.com.au/ @ http://www.christianity.net.au/ -Original Message- Sent: Sunday, 25 March 2001 15:18 To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi, Connor, The append hint to insert does not disable generating rollback info.

Re: Deleting alert_sid.log while db is running?
Even if you "rm" the file, it will still be consuming disk space until the file is closed (when the DB comes down). The down side is that you will no longer be able to see any new entries.

RE: Transporting Database
If its giving the message " Insufficient Priviledges" then try copying the init.ora file again from the source to the server where r u wan't to create a database. If u wan't to edit the init.ora file to change some parameters, use edit, never use notepad to edit the init.ora file. Opening init.ora file in notepad might corrupt the init.ora.

RE: Single Code Table or Separate Code tables dilemma
comp.databases.oracle.server (Was: Re: DBMS_REPAIR package usage)
Hi, Murali, You don't subscribe to a newsgroup such as comp.databases.oracle.server as you do to a mailing list. If your company has a news (NNTP) server, configure your browser to user it and type the URL news:comp.databases.oracle.server to read/post messages. Most companies use "news" or "snews" as the news server name. Try: telnet news 119 help quit to find out. Or ask your Help Desk. If your company does not have a news server, read Question 2 at http://groups.google.com/googlegroups/help.html. I use news.interbulletin.com currently. If you insist on using a public news server instead of a Web gateway, www.jammed.com/~newzbot/sorted-speed.html does a fairly good job on listing public servers, which come and go at their will. To use one of them, type the URL news://[the IP of the server]/comp.databases.oracle.server in your browser. News readers don't use these URLs.
