Re: Creating a sorted table
There is a very good reason for having data approximately in physical order - it can dramatically improve your buffer hit rates. IOT's are great for this, but if you're on an earlier version then the occasional job to pseudo-cluster the data can be a very good thing... Cheers Connor --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Whyever would you want data inserted in order? There is no guarantee that Oracle will actually store the records in order, there is no performance gain, and you can always retrieve the records in order by using an order by statement -- if you really need ordered data, you could use a index-organized table with all of your columns, with the date as the first column. But methinks this would be dangerous for a heavy transaction table. (Gurus, please correct me if I'm wrong here) However, if you are still keen, you could do this through a PL/SQL block, something like the following: declare cursor get_data is select col1, col2, col3, ... from unordered_table order by whatever; begin for dataRec in get_data loop insert into ordered_table (col1, col2, col3, ...) values (dataRec.col1, dataRec.col2, dataRec.col3, ...) end loop; end; / Cheers!

Re: Function based index - insufficient priveleges
When in doubt, check the manual ;) Manuals are available in pdf format from metalink and in html and pdf format from http://technet.oracle.com (free registration). Per the SQL Reference manual on the create index statement: To create a function-based index in your own schema on your own table, in addition to the prerequisites for creating a conventional index, you must have the QUERY REWRITE system privilege. To create the index in another schema or on another schema's table, you must have the GLOBAL QUERY REWRITE privilege. In both cases, the table owner must also have the EXECUTE object privilege on the function(s) used in the function-based index. In addition, in order for Oracle to use function-based indexes in queries, the QUERY_REWRITE_ENABLED parameter must be set to true, and the QUERY_REWRITE_INTEGRITY parameter must be set to trusted.

Re: Musings on tuning and the optimizer
- Original Message - Have run across some interesting things while reading up on the optimizer. Same here! :-) Always thought that the RBO joins your tables in the order found in the FROM clause? Think again. Actually, I found one in Metalink that says with RBO, it's the reverse order of the FROM clause. Which I was aware of. But it also says: if there are NO STATS whatsoever and you use a hint that forces the CBO to be used or it is the default, the order of tables is left to right. Like what you get when using the hint ORDERED. Also, a few other interesting rules: - FIRST_ROWS tends to favour NESTED LOOPS. - ALL_ROWS tends to favour HASH and table scans. old hat in the above EXCEPT (!) if the CBO finds a table with no stats in a join. Then it's most likely hash, for both settings above. And optimizer_mode is CHOOSE and there is a mix of tables in the join with/without stats, then ALL_ROWS is the result. Speaking of the ORDERED hint, it can greatly reduce parse times when joining many tables. Obvious when you think about it. That, it certainly does! My experience too. It never hurts to help the optimizer do its job. All kinds of interesting stuff when you Read The Fine Manual. ;) And a few others. I found out the problem I reported a while ago with CBO suddenly going South on hash scan joins and completely ignoring nested loops or indexes is actually an introduced problem due to a change in CBO rules after 8.0.4. It first affected SAP users. It used to be fixed by a couple of events which due to their usefulness, became the two new optimizer cost adjust parameters in later versions of 8.0 and some of the 8.1. groan... roll on 9i, I've had enough of this optimizer!

Re: Musings on tuning and the optimizer

Actually, I found one in Metalink that says with RBO, it's the reverse order of the FROM clause. Which I was aware of. But it also says: if there are NO STATS whatsoever and you use a hint that forces the CBO to be used or it is the default, the order of tables is left to right. Like what you get when using the hint ORDERED. The RBO may consider them in reverse order of how they are listed in the FROm clause, but the docs are quite clear that this is not necessarily the order they will be joined in. And a few others. I found out the problem I reported a while ago with CBO suddenly going South on hash scan joins and completely ignoring nested loops or indexes is actually an introduced problem due to a change in CBO rules after 8.0.4. It first affected SAP users. It used to be fixed by a couple of events which due to their usefulness, became the two new optimizer cost adjust parameters in later versions of 8.0 and some of the 8.1.

RE: redo copy latch low??
Just pulled up this info from Oracle Docs Well, If you could give some inputs as to the performance issues that u r facing bacause of this - it would be useful. Also, what type of application are u running? Here is the info: * Reducing Contention for Redo Copy Latches On multiple-CPU computers, multiple redo copy latches allow multiple processes to copy entries to the redo log buffer concurrently. The default value of LOG_SIMULTANEOUS_COPIES is the number of CPUs available to your Oracle instance. If you observe contention for redo copy latches, add more latches by increasing the value of LOG_SIMULTANEOUS_COPIES. It can help to have up to twice as many redo copy latches as CPUs available to your Oracle instance. ** Rajaram. -Original Message- From: Raghu Kota [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 28, 2001 1:26 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject:redo copy latch low??

Re: How can I query the SID name from the database
Concerning the SID, which I tend to find synonymous with instance name
(trying hard to figure out a way to have an instance name different from
the SID, but cannot come out with anything), 8i contains a column NAME
in V$INSTANCE (which has nothing in common but the name with the Oracle7
V$INSTANCE). With Oracle 7, you can't get it, for the reason that Jared
says - OS stuff, not Oracle stuff. The closer you can get to it is
SELECT VALUE FROM V$PARAMETER WHERE NAME = 'db_name' assuming, somewhat
optimistically, that people usually give the same name to their database
as to the instance when there is no parallel server running (this is
what I usually do but I have very recently met databases which were
created with different conventions). I have noticed, though, with 7.3 a
V$ACTIVE_INSTANCE view with a NAME column which only seems to contain
something when the parallel server is running (was not my case). That
said, you need to relate a name to an instance # and I have not the
slightest clue about how to get your instance # in this case since
userenv('INSTANCE') only works with Oracle8.

Hello Vivek, Check followings: - If I'm not wrong there should be lk* file 7.3.3 and onwards. remove it. - check shared memory/semaphores by ipcs. if They still exist, remove them by ipcrm if problem still exist, you are most probably hitting a bug. - debug your process by truss/trace in OS system call level. check last lines of truss/trace output. I'm not sure last system call is flushed to file. check it. - set event="error code trace name errorstack forever, level 10" in init.ora. re-produce error. then send us trace file created under udump. regards...

Oracle and Red Hat
All, Over the past few days, there have been postings which stated that Oracle had withdrawn certification for Red Hat Linux. The first indicated that Oracle had withdrawn certification for Apps 11i on Red Hat Linux. Subsequent postings further indicated that Red Hat would not be a supported OS platform for upcoming releases of the RDBMS as well. I did find one forum posting on Metalink which indicated that Red Hat had withdrawn from the Oracle certification process, but have found no other references to the above. Does anyone know of any relevant articles, or support/desupport notices regarding this? Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Re: Buffer Hit Ratio 10% on UNIX HP/UX 11.0
For one thing, which you did not mention, when was the last time this instance was restarted? It is normal to see low cache hit ratios shortly after a startup. Second did someone do something, like select * from the largest table, that could have caused the cache to completely flush? Also do you have something going on that could cause a lot of full table scane, like bad statistics? There are a lot of other user level things like this that can cause problems. I have DB's that stay up for a year at a time don't have low cache hit ratios without good cause. Dick Goulet -- Reply Separator -- Author: Schoen Volker [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 5/28/01 4:15 AM Hi list, I have a curious problem with my buffer hit ratio on Oracle 8.0.5, Unix HP UX 11.0.

I know that hit ratio have to be higher, cause application is tuned and there is not much data in the database. In other environments (Windows NT) I get buffer hit ratios about 90 - 99 %.

On Monday 28 May 2001 04:45, Nuno Souto wrote: And a few others. I found out the problem I reported a while ago with CBO suddenly going South on hash scan joins and completely ignoring nested loops or indexes is actually an introduced problem due to a change in CBO rules after 8.0.4. It first affected SAP users. It used to be fixed by a couple of events which due to their usefulness, became the two new optimizer cost adjust parameters in later versions of 8.0 and some of the 8.1. groan... roll on 9i, I've had enough of this optimizer! Nuno, here's an interesting bit in the tuning manual that may take care of the hash join problem. For a view with multiple base tables on the right side of an outer join, the optimizer can push the join predicate into the view (see Pushing the Predicate into the View) if the initialization parameter _PUSH_JOIN_PREDICATE is set to TRUE or the accessing query contains the PUSH_PRED hint. Pushing a join predicate is a cost-based transformation that can enable more efficient access path and join methods, such as transforming hash joins into nested loops joins, and full table scans to index scans. I haven't had a chance to try this, as I don't currently have access to a database with real data in it, but this could be the way to prevent those hash join problems when migrating to 8i from 7.x.
