RE: Missing DDL?
Anita, Followed your suggestion BUT... does not seem to be working. The export log is showing that it exports tablespace definitions but using INDEXFILE parameter with Import utility does not seem to show the DDL for creating the tablespaces. Perhaps this is the way it is meant to be, I'd just like to verify one way or the other. Anyone out there know??? Is there some other way to view the DDL for tablespace creation?. Expanding on where I'm coming form here is that if for example one had an export dump of a DB and needed to move it to another machine which had a different disk configuration, how does one direct the data files to different disks. I suspect its using a dump of control file and modifying same. What if you don't have the control file dump what do you do then? - Sean -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, May 31, 2001 08:10 To: 'A.

If you create db links for them, that's what they will be doing. In addition, have you ever managed an environment like that? I have and it's not pretty. How will you administer the privileges? Will it be a public database link ( dangerous ) or lots of private database links (messy )? Will the connection be to their own account on the production system ( that you must create ) or an account that has all the needed privs? Managing this is something of a headache.

RE: Performance tuning
Database parameters were slightly changed for the second run and SGA was made only 140 MB. Loading was done without indexes and SQL loader parameters were changed to Readsize=10m, Bindsize=10m and Rows=5000. It took almost same time for about 21 hours but again it committed 8-10 times ( first 5) very quickly. Real bottleneck is RAM (as pointed out by all) since commit charge in NT task manager was almost double than the physical memory. But since the data is loaded , we are through. Thanks to every one who responded Azhar Boivin, Patrice J To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]cc: mpo.gc.ca Subject: RE: Performance tuning Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/31/2001 12:56 AM Please respond to ORACLE-L I don't know what is causing this, but I would keep an eye on physical memory available vs. commit charge in Task Manager, I strongly recommend your commit charge never exceed your physical memory. I found that Oracle sometimes refuses to even start services when it runs out of physical memory, it doesn't like virtual memory very much. Shrinking the size of your SGA is preferable to exceeding the available physical memory, in my opinion. Keep in mind session memory space in your calculations, and the other programs you may be running on your machine. I recommend you stop all the services (in Services applet) that you dare stop, to lighten the load. In the virtual memory settings, allocate the amount you want, but try to avoid a range of values - when initial and max size values are different NT keeps polling the pagefile and memory statistics to figure out if the pagefile should grow or shrink. Better to do that manually up front, allocate at set amount. NT then stops doing extra work regarding memory allocation. Every little bit helps. I haven't used SQL*Loader, so I can't say much about that, except... when you start loading those first few rows, what does Commit Charge look like in Task Manager? Is it growing? If it is, notice how slowly NT does this. It can't be helped. If commit charge approaches physical memory available, you will hit a ceiling I think. Then things may well slow down to a crawl. Is there a buffer size you can set for SQL*Loader? I always set my exp buffer size to 100 to speed it up. Maybe you can do the same for SQL*Loader. That must use more memory though. Can you commit every few records? Could it be every 10 rows? Would it be better not to commit too often? As mentioned before, RAID 5 will prove slower than simple disk or RAID 01 or RAID 10. Do you have many indexes on the tables you are filling up? You may want to drop them and re-create them once the load is finished. This may sound silly but... do you have a virus checking program running

Re: Snapshot Logs Explanation Needed
Tracy, You may know that there were no modifications to the master table made from the time the snapshot log was dropped until it was recreated, but Oracle can't take that chance, otherwise data could get out of sync. That's why you have to either recreate your snapshot or do a complete refresh if the snapshot log is recreated. To avoid recreating the snapshots I would ask why you need to reorg your master tables (i.e. what do you hope to accomplish by this)? If you're doing it for defragmentation reasons, I suggest you check out the excellent white paper How to stop defragmenting and start living... to see if this is really necessary. http://www.vampired.net/articles/files/stopfrag.zip HTH, -- Anita --- Tracy Rahmlow [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I would like to reorg many tables which have snapshots associated with them.

RE: Missing DDL?
Sean, Importing with INDEXFILE will show TABLE create statements as well as INDEX create statements but will not show TABLESPACE create statements. To get the tablespace create statements (this will not be a pretty output file!): imp userid=userid/password file=file log=show.log show=y rows=n full=y this will generate a file called show.log that will contain ALL DDL statements for that database. At the beginning of the file, you should see the create tablespace commands. You will need to edit these commands to make them runnable, Oracle chops the line off at (I think) 80 characters and then wraps to the next line. Everything will be enclosed in double quotes as well.

RE: Working with a BLOB
Sometimes the obvious isn't obvious...
I had the bulk of the query but was just getting hung
up on the 1st 75 bytes requirement. It never clicked
with me that the instr( ) function in the dbms_log
package already gave me a position and all I needed to
do was simply constrain it with a between clause.
The query below won't work with a blob because the
data is stored as binary so the '.com' needs to be
wrapped in the UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_RAW( ) function first
so the datatypes are compatible.
Thanks again!! :-)

Rebuilding indexes
For those of you that have implemented a standby database, what method do you use to rebuild your indexes tablespace. My plan was to create a new tablespace and rebuild the indexes into the new tablespace and then reverse the process to move back to the original tablespace after I drop and recreate it in order to get rid of fragmentation in the originally indexes tablespace. However, creating the new datafile associated with the new tablespace, cancels media recovery associated with the standby database...just wondered if anyone has a better method of defragging an index tablespace when there is a standby database catching the redo it generates.

Re: Your views on Quest - Shareplex

In 8.1.6 at least the control and on-line redo (not rollback segment) files no longer had to be on raw devices.

The problem is I didn't work with parallel server and I have a lot of questions about it: 1) Is mandatory to use raw devices for control files, redo logs data files? -- Data files yes, redo and control files can be on cooked file system. 2) How we transfer our cooked data files to raw devices data files? import/export? or exist another better (fast) method? -- To the best of my knowledge your going to have to rebuild the database from scratch so imp/exp is your only option. 3) If I start with only one node, performance will be the same of one single instance (no parallel)? -- Yes and NO, raw devices run a little faster than cooked files since the OS's buffer cache is not in the middle. 4) Somebody know how to work with raw devices under solaris? any link? I try to found someting in metalink but there's no samples... -- Working with raw devices is very different from cooked file systems. If you don't have an experienced Unix admin you could be in serious trouble. 5) What about backup? I can't put tablespaces in backup mode and copy with cp... maybe it's time to use rman? -- Rman can handle the backups, but a file system level backup is different.

Re: cannot drop snapshot with partition.
Sandesh, This is a known bug (1335477) that allows you to rename a snapshot/materialized view, which you shouldn't be allowed to do. What you've got now is data dictionary corruption because not all of the data dictionary entries were changed when the snapshot was renamed. You can try renaming the snapshot back to its original name, but I suspect you'll get an error that the object already exists. Your only option, other than a PITR prior to when the snapshot was renamed, is probably to log a tar with support so they can walk you through correcting the data dictionary corruption. This is not something I'd advise trying on your own unless you can afford to lose this db. HTH, -- Anita --- Naik, Sandesh S [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, I have a 8.1.6.2 database on hp9000.

RE: backspace in Oracle.
No doubt Novell at the time was more stable than NT at the time. But some of these stories, which can start off as My Novell box seems more stable than that NT 3.51 SP 1 box mutate into internet apocrypha faster than you can spell telephone. Before you know it, it's a heartlung machine, coded in assembler, running on a Novell beta release cross compiled to the Kaypro, which has been up, even through tornadoes, for 22 years. Meanwhile, the NT box crashed on boot up, then corrupted the disk, sold the house, and slept with my wife. I always ask for details. Two reasons. The first is to take a litmus test for veracity. The other is (assuming veracity) to learn something about how to make systems stable. shrug || -Original Message- || From: Eric D.

RE: what's hash-join
It will perform better than sort and merge and nested loops in most cases. They tend to be fast. But will not out perform index nested loops in most cases.

Re:About parallel server
Dick As far as I know, at least in Sun, sequent, hp and linux, you need to have control files and redo log files in raw disk. Every instance needs access to other thread's redo log files to do instance recovery for the failed instances. Only if the data is in the raw disk, multiple nodes can share the same disks. Control file is updated by all the instances. Out of curiosity, what OS were you using ? I just read Scott Heisey's email too and realized that you don't need to use raw disks for few platforms such as True64. May be you were one of those platforms? Rachel is absolutely correct and we have learnt this lesson hard way. But Oracle 9i Real Application cluster ( aka OPS) is supposedly remove these barriers. Cache fusion is a new feature introduced in 8i, by which disk writes due to true ping is avoided by transferring the data directly from one instance to another instance cache,( only for consistent reads in 8i). Oracle 9i apparently introduces cache fusion for read/read, read/write,write/write scenarios also. In this case, there is a probability that the required block to be transferred between the instances just from the buffer cache itself avoiding the disk access. Also Oracle claims that Real application cluster does not need any change in the application design. I am not sure how all this going to play in the real field, but interesting to know.

RE: Database Links
Tracy, I have a similar deal going on here. If you are on version 8.1.x and the lookup tables are large, you can use Materialized Views, and since they are lookup tables that shouldn't change much, you should only have to refresh them every once in a while. If they are really small tables, however, you can just use database links. What I do is create a view across a database link on top of the lookup tables. I then create a synonym on the view that is the same as the lookup tables' name. The users, then, have no idea the tables don't exist locally.

I have a query that contains these lines as part of the WHERE clause:

This works fine -- the query returns in about a minute, which is what

Changing to the following causes the time to go to about 7 hours!
WHERE trunc(it.transaction_date) BETWEEN
to_date('May-19-2001', 'Mon-dd-') AND
to_date('May-28-2001', 'Mon-dd-')
Changing the BETWEEN to = AND = gives the same long results.
What makes it go back to normal is dropping the trunc(), or otherwise
rewriting it so there is no trunc(). So I have a workaround. But I'm
curious why there'd be such a huge difference. Running just the BETWEEN
piece by itself works fine.
This is Oracle 8.1.6 on Solaris. I've tried indexing the transaction_date
column both as transaction_date and trunc(transaction_date) but there's no
difference. I've used both individual column indexes and combined with
other WHERE clause columns used.
One web site I found said there's an 8i bug creating functional indexes

trunc() but I have not verified that.
I've started to analyze but SQL*Plus autotrace takes almost as long to

SCOPE APPLICATION --- Customers who are considering using Quest SharePlex for disaster recovery. Extracting Data from Redo Logs Is Not A Supported Interface -- Quest SharePlex for Oracle replicates data to one or more other Oracle instances. It attempts to use the information in the redo log to replicate transactions remotely. 1) There is not sufficient information in the logs to logically replicate transactions, so the data applied to the destination system may be different from the primary, and therefore inaccurate. Eyal: That is correct. A part of the SharePlex product goes back to the source database and completes the missing information. This is done only for certain types of Update statements but is not nessasery for Inserts and Deletes. 2) Reading the redo log is not a supported interface. From the very beginning, Oracle has changed redo log formats to support functional enhancements. We must therefore reserve the right to continue to make needed log format changes. For this reason, certification of any third party product using this interface is not possible. Since this is an unsupported interface, the accuracy or completeness of the data in the destination database can not be assured. Eyal: The power of the product is the direct result from reading the raw log data. It is our core competency in Quest to understand and support the changing nature of the Oracle log. The reality is that between version 7.0 until 8.1.6 there where only minor changes to the log. Since we are a close partner with Oracle we get early releases of the software and we have the chance to update the product as needed. So far this has never been an issue since most large production sites are running Oracle versions that are atleast 6 months to a year old. Regarding assurance to the completeness of the data, we do not expect Oracle to provide any assurance. Quest is the one that assures the content of the destination. Quest support has some of the best support experts in the business. Any problem with the database content should be directed to our support organization and not Oracle World Wide Support. Likelihood of Occurrence ~ Unknown. However, even a low likelihood is a concern for disaster recovery (DR). In disaster failovers, the remote server's database may be the only viable copy. Eyal: Since Oracle uses the data in the log to perform database recovery, all the information necessary to create a point in time image of the database exists in the log. However, we believe that SharePlex has a better chance to survive a disaster than even a database recovery. This is because SharePlex only needs the data to recover a transaction while Oracle needs all changes present in the log, including index and rollback changes, to successfully recover a database. An index block corruption may render the recovered database useless. History indicates that SharePlex can withstand most log corruptions and data block corruptions, while maintaining a viable live standby site. If the client is not a 100% sure, SharePlex provides a variety of mechanisms to periodically resync the standby database, including the ability to use a hot backup and 3rd party disk mirroring

Partition Elimination
Hi All, Can anyone help me with this. I have range partitioned a table (no indexes) and then computed statistics. I have now queried the table using the partition key as the only criteria in the where clause. Why does Oracle still do a full table scan, why is it not clever enough to only scan the partition(s) effected by the where condition?. The Oracle documentation gives a good insight into partitioning but does not go into detail about when partition elimination will be performed and what the explain plan would look like when this occurs. If anyone can point me to a section of the documentation that covers this I would be grateful. Many Thanks, Dave Leach ** The above information is confidential to the addressee and may be privileged.

Suggestions on SCSI
Hi all, Just thought I would throw this one out there and see what all of you hot shots think. I am going to rebuild a server into a DB Server. Currently it has IDE drives in there and obviously I am not going to be using those. So I need to invest in some new SCSI drives. Here's what I had in mind: Either 4 X 9.2 Gig 10K RPM with 2mb Cache OR 4 X 18.4 GIG 10K with 4MB cache I was initially leaning towards the 9 gigs to save on cost, however someone pointed out that 18 would be a better idea for growth down the line. Also I want to keep them all of the same size in case one goes down then I may have room on another. What are your thoughts on this? Does anyone know what ultra fibre scsi means? Does anyone recommend brands to stear clear of? I know that Seagate is a pretty good name, but I can't find any in Ultra 2? Anyone know if Hitachi is a good name? Thanks in advance.

problem with trunc()
I have a query that contains these lines as part of the WHERE clause:
WHERE trunc(it.transaction_date) = to_date('May-19-2001', 'Mon-dd-')
This works fine -- the query returns in about a minute, which is what
I'd expect for the table sizes, the rest of the joins, etc.
Changing to the following causes the time to go to about 7 hours!
WHERE trunc(it.transaction_date) BETWEEN
to_date('May-19-2001', 'Mon-dd-') AND
to_date('May-28-2001', 'Mon-dd-')
Changing the BETWEEN to = AND = gives the same long results.
What makes it go back to normal is dropping the trunc(), or otherwise
rewriting it so there is no trunc(). So I have a workaround. But I'm
curious why there'd be such a huge difference. Running just the BETWEEN
piece by itself works fine.
This is Oracle 8.1.6 on Solaris. I've tried indexing the transaction_date
column both as transaction_date and trunc(transaction_date) but there's no
difference. I've used both individual column indexes and combined with
other WHERE clause columns used.
One web site I found said there's an 8i bug creating functional indexes
using
trunc() but I have not verified that.
I've started to analyze but SQL*Plus autotrace takes almost as long to
return (7 hours) so it's not too useful at this point.

RE: problem with trunc()
I have always been told that using functions on fields would stop the
efficient use of indexes so . what if you said
WHERE it.transaction_date BETWEEN
to_date('May-19-2001.00.00.00', 'Mon-dd-.hh24.mi.ss') AND
to_date('May-28-2001.23.59.59', 'Mon-dd-')
This would at least eliminate the Trunc and give you another possibility.

To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L
I have a query that contains these lines as part of the WHERE clause:
WHERE trunc(it.transaction_date) = to_date('May-19-2001', 'Mon-dd-')
This works fine -- the query returns in about a minute, which is what
I'd expect for the table sizes, the rest of the joins, etc.
Changing to the following causes the time to go to about 7 hours!
WHERE trunc(it.transaction_date) BETWEEN
to_date('May-19-2001', 'Mon-dd-') AND
to_date('May-28-2001', 'Mon-dd-')
Changing the BETWEEN to = AND = gives the same long results.
What makes it go back to normal is dropping the trunc(), or otherwise
rewriting it so there is no trunc(). So I have a workaround. But I'm
curious why there'd be such a huge difference. Running just the BETWEEN
piece by itself works fine.
This is Oracle 8.1.6 on Solaris. I've tried indexing the transaction_date
column both as transaction_date and trunc(transaction_date) but there's no
difference. I've used both individual column indexes and combined with
other WHERE clause columns used.
One web site I found said there's an 8i bug creating functional indexes
using
trunc() but I have not verified that.
I've started to analyze but SQL*Plus autotrace takes almost as long to
return (7 hours) so it's not too useful at this point.

Re: Auto Extend
Hi, When using autoextend always set max size and monitor. Turn off auto extend if a small possibility exists to do so. Check if your OS has large file size enabled and there won't be any problems. jack Smith, Ron L.

RE: lsnrctl question
On unix you can look for the process running the listener. In our shop this is done by : $ ps -ef | grep tnslsnr oracle 413 1 0 May 18 ?2:36 /u03/home/oracle/product/8.0.5/bin/tnslsnr listener.1526 -inherit oracle 447 1 0 May 18 ?0:08 /u03/home/oracle/product/8.0.5/bin/tnslsnr listener.1514 -inherit oracle 455 1 0 May 18 ?0:00 /u03/home/oracle/product/8.0.5/bin/tnslsnr external_procedure_listener -inherit oracle 13084 12853 0 11:45:32 pts/14 0:00 grep tnslsnr $ Note that each process has the listener name as a parameter. In this case the external procedure listener is simply external_procedure_listener You can then use this in the lsnrctl status external_procedure_listener command. Or, you can always look in your listener.ora file for the name of it.

Re: what's hash-join
And it will skip partitions that it can see will not match any other corresponding partition. PD Miller wrote: At 0:16 -0800 31/5/01, Senthil Ganapathi wrote: could tell me what's that hash-join Straight from the concepts manual: To perform a hash join, Oracle follows these steps: 1. Oracle performs a full table scan on each of the tables and splits each into as many partitions as possible based on the available memory. 2. Oracle builds a hash table from one of the partitions (if possible, Oracle will select a partition that fits into available memory). Oracle then uses the corresponding partition in the other table to probe the hash table. All partition pairs that do not fit into memory are placed onto disk. 3. For each pair of partitions (one from each table), Oracle uses the smaller one to build a hash table and the larger one to probe the hash table. Or to paraphrase: load each table into a set of hash partitions based on the equi-join predicate. Use the smaller hash partition hash values to find the matches in the larger.RegardsPaul Miller -- - Carib Data Limited mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.caribdata.co.uk> -- Venlig hilsen Mogens Nrgaard Technical Director Miracle A/S, Denmark Web: http://MiracleAS.dk Mobile: +45 2527 7100
