Re: How to find oracle is 32/64 bit

2001-07-23 Thread Christian Trassens

Hi,

Query the v$version view. From outside issue a file
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle, usually when it is a 64 bits
release it doesn't appear the number 64. However in a
32 bits, it does:

$ file oracle
oracle: ELF 32-bit MSB executable SPARC
Version 1, dynamically linked, n
ot stripped

RE: backup Oracle on Sun Cluster 2.2 ???

Hi,

If I shutdown my database, sun cluster will automatically startup it within

I don't see any problem in stopping Oracle Database and keep the cluster
running. Stop the database from svrmgr prompt on all nodes using just
shutdown normal/immediate and don't execute anything related to cluster.
This way u will have access to all shared storage (raw / filesystems) and
your database is down for cold backup.
Now, if u are using raw shared device, then the backup cab be taken through
'dd' and if u are using filesystems, then u can use anything u want.

RE: backup Oracle on Sun Cluster 2.2 ???

2001-07-23 Thread deshmukh


This should be the case with DLM. Usually DLM goes down and comes up along
with the cluster. To make this happen u have to execute following command

scadmin clustername ?U filename i.e. clustername.ora_cdb

Once u execute above command, they say DLM is registered with the cluster
and the DLM goes down and comes up with the cluster automatically. But I
don't know what happens when u stop DLM using some DLM command, whether
cluster automatically senses it and brings it up within a second or so.

I think something similar is configured for db_startup scripts on your
cluster. I don't know how it is done for db_startup.

Please check in /etc/opt/SUNWconf/conf/cluster_name.ora_cdb
and /etc/opt/SUNWconf/conf/cluster_name.cdb

U may find something related to this in these configuration files. Read the
commented part also.

I mean just that--that Oracle will look in its free extent cache for the
first free extent the tablespace that is the same size as that which it
needs. There is no particular ordering first. And that would make it
appear to be distributing extents equally among the files, but not always.
Sometimes it will also look, as another lister has pointed out, as if Oracle
is always going to the biggest datafile in the tablespace.

  distinguish between datafiles, but rather looks at the total free space
  extents for the tablespace as listed in SYS.FET$ (Oracle's free extent
  cache). Basically, Oracle will look for a free extent equal to the size
of
  the one it needs to allocate(see Doc ID #69343.1 on MetaLink of details
on
  Oracle's extent algorithm). The first one on the list, regardless of the
  datafile, gets picked first. If one of exact size doesn't exist, Oracle
will
  then split an existing larger extent. This larger extent, again, will be
the
  first one found in SYS.FET$ which can provide the necessary space. So,
it
  can at times appear to be round-robin allocation or one-file-at-a-time
when,
  in point of fact, it is much more complex.

   Jeremiah is right. Depending on the version of the database this is an
   imaginary problem.
   I have been using this 'auto round robin' feature since  8.0.6 (HP-UX
   32-bit).  Just did quite a bit of re-organization involving
partitioning a
   large table and used this auto round robin extent allocation feature
to
   spread out I/O...
  
   Anyone seen this in any lower versions ??

It appears we may be discussing an imaginary problem.  At least on
the
version I am using (8.1.6.2 HP-UX 64 bit), Oracle round robins among
files with available space automatically.  It does not just fill up
one datafile and move on to the next.
   
I did a little experiment:
   
SQL create tablespace jeremiah_temp1
  1  datafile '/tmp/jeremiah_temp-01.dbf' size 10m,
  2   '/tmp/jeremiah_temp-02.dbf' size 10m,
  3   '/tmp/jeremiah_temp-03.dbf' size 10m,
  4   '/tmp/jeremiah_temp-04.dbf' size 10m;
   
Tablespace created.
   
SQL create table foobar
  1  (baz varchar2(10))
  2  storage (initial 32k next 32k pctincrease 0 maxextents 4)
  3  tablespace jeremiah_temp1;
   
Table created.
   
SQL insert into foobar (baz)
  1  select substr(trash,1,10) from garbage where rownum = 6000;
   
6000 rows created.
   
SQL commit;
   
Commit complete.
   
SQL select segment_name, e.bytes/1024 kb, file_name
  1  from dba_extents e, dba_data_files d
  2  where e.file_id = d.file_id
  3  and e.segment_name = 'FOOBAR';
   
SEGMENT_NAME   KB FILE_NAME
  
 -- -- --
FOOBAR 32 /tmp/jeremiah_temp-01.dbf
FOOBAR 32 /tmp/jeremiah_temp-02.dbf
FOOBAR 32 /tmp/jeremiah_temp-03.dbf
FOOBAR 32 /tmp/jeremiah_temp-04.dbf
   
So, it looks like it round robins automatically, and there is no
need to do so manually.  I don't know which version of Oracle was
the
first to do this.

 How can I find out what queries and/or tables are being used in full table

 John

Select query text from V$SQLAREA (or, better, V$SQLTEXT since V$SQLAREA
only contains the first 999 characters) and run EXPLAIN on it. Querying
PLAN_TABLE afterwards will give you the info (do not forget to assign
statement identifiers when running EXPLAIN). This is not too difficult
to code in SQL or PL/SQL. This said, full table scans are not
necessarily bad. Most reference tables are usually accessed faster
through FTS, and sometimes big tables too. Only Big Bad Full Table Scans
are to be feared; it really depends. You should concentrate on queries
which do a high number of logical reads. There is a free script
(peep.sql) on the Oriole site to find them. PLUGThere is also a
product, ORISNOOP, to give you a fuller picture and generate a usually
awesome HTML report/PLUG.

Hi Prasad,


When your issue STARTUP command in svrmgrl or sqlplus, Oracle will check the file called initSID.ora in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory.

You could specify a initSID.ora file with this command : STARTUP PFILE=/PATH/initSID.ora

SVRMGRL is more primitive than SQL*Plus and doesn't

Re: init.ora

2001-07-23 Thread Jon Walthour

Prasad:

There is no way to tell from inside Oracle exactly what init.ora you used to
start the db up with. By default, it uses the one pointed to by the
symlink/ifile in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs, but if you start up the db with the
pfile= parameter (as in, startup pfile=some_other_init.ora), then there's no
way to know other than knowing what parameters are different between the two
init.ora files and querying sys.v_$parameter to check those differences.

It's the expected behaviour. And I'm sorry it was my

even the fact you can change it and it works. You can
confirm this yourself in the 8.1.7 documentation of
the parameter.

I have a public role with several grants in it.

Then i revoked the role from public today , after that i granted the role to
public.

Several users are complaining about the follwing  : ORA-00942: table or view
does not exist

The user still has the public role (via user_role_privs) but doesn't see the
granted tables.
When i drop and create the user everything is ok.

Does anyone has a clue why this happens and how i can eliminate this without
dropping the users.

Re: Anyone know what refresh controlfile command is?

2001-07-23 Thread A. Bardeen

Ethan,

There's not much on this event.  It occurs when an
operation that needs to update the controlfile has to
wait while the controlfile is being resized (e.g. if
new entries are being added).  Seems most likley to
occur in an OPS env where different instances could be
updating the same controlfile.  All of my test db's
(non-OPS) have 1 wait on this event, so it occurs even
on non-OPS db's.

 There is no way to tell from inside Oracle exactly what init.ora you used 
to
 start the db up with. By default, it uses the one pointed to by the
 symlink/ifile in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs, but if you start up the db with the
 pfile= parameter (as in, startup pfile=some_other_init.ora), then there's 
no
 way to know other than knowing what parameters are different between the 
two
 init.ora files and querying sys.v_$parameter to check those differences.

Hi,

I would like to know the the number of used cursors at any given time. Is
there a select statement that does this for me?  I would like to decide if
the growing number of concurent users for a given database has reached the

RE: Off Topic: For Sale Sparc 5 170MHz capable of running 9i

2001-07-23 Thread Mark Leith

Christopher,

What would the total cost be for an upgrade to 256Mb RAM, and a 10 gig disk?
Same for 512Mb RAM.

Then of course there would be the cost of shipping it to the UK..

We are looking for a low range test box at the moment..

Cheers

Mark

If anyone is interested in a cheap machine to start playing with 9i with.  I
just got a lot of 100 Sparc 5's.

Standard configuration is:

HyperSparc 170MHz
64Mb Ram
Internal CDROM and Floppy
Turbo GX Video (13W Connector)
2Gb SCSI Hard Drive

I am putting them on ebay at $225 each.  Which is less than they normally go
for, but I just want to get rid of this shipment so I can get this lot of
Blade 1000's.

To run Oracle 9i, I would recommend increasing the ram and disk.  Which we
have both.

Sorry about the off topic, I know a few people mentioned they were looking
for some machines.

RE: backup Oracle on Sun Cluster 2.2 ???

Don't know if this will work with Sun but with HP we would stop the
database and the cluster (single script), then mount the filesystem
locally.  Hope it helps.

For a cold backup, simply shut down all Oracle instances accessing the
database to be backed up.  There is no need to shut down any Sun or Veritos
cluster services.

 Hi all,

 I want to perform Oracle cold backup,

 Since I am using Sun Cluster 2.2, after I stop my cluster, those
clustered
 partitions are not mounted.

 How can I shutdown my database while my cluster is working (How to

 my Oracle with mounted partitions)

However, sending a resume is unnecessary.  If someone is interestered,
they can contact the poster privately and request a resume.

Is this the process still being used extensively or else advanced features

Listener Security !!

2001-07-23 Thread Rajesh Dayal

Hi All !!

   Today I came across a typical Hole in Listener Security.
If you have lsnrctl utility (or Database installation) at one
Box, then you can stop the listener on another Box. Just change
the parameter file (listener.ora) to have hostname of another
(may be production server) box. Now goto lsnrctl and fire stop
command. you would notice that the local listener is running
but the remote listener is down...
This is more serious issue on platforms like Unix and VMS 
where you can control listener (locally) only if you are a 
member of DBA group. This means that Listener doesn't have any
cross OS check in it
Is this a known issue/bug. Any-ideas, any patches? Oracle
Corp guys, what you say? 
Waiting for you views..

CASE Expressions

2001-07-23 Thread Jonathan Gennick

I'm doing some research for a book, and I need to know when
Oracle began to support CASE expressions. I thought it was
in Oracle9i, but the new features list seems to imply that
CASE may have come about in 8.1.7. Can anyone with 8.1.7
verify this for me? I have 8.1.6 and 9.whatever, but not
8.1.7 or I'd try it myself.

If you have 8.1.7, and have a second to experiment, try the
following query as a test:

SELECT CASE 1 WHEN 1 THEN 2
FROM dual;

Newbie kinda question

2001-07-23 Thread Michael



Hi Everybody,

 I'm currently studying for some 
Oracle Certification from a private organization, which will then put me through 
the Oracle DBA exams. I'm currently working on the PL/SQL programming modules. 
All the information I have consistently refers to Procedure Builder for 
programming with PL/SQL. However, I cannot seem to find where I can get a copy 
of Procedure Builder. I have gotten a copy of TOAD, however I'm not entirely 
happy with it. Statements which are allowed to run in SQL*Plus are not being run 
under TOAD for some reason. 

 So, in summary, where can I get 
a copy of Procedure Builder ?

Thanks,
Michael.

IMHO: If recruiters can post jobs, each of us can post our need
for a job.

However, sending a resume is unnecessary.  If someone is interestered,
they can contact the poster privately and request a resume.

 Hi all,
 
 I wonder if anyone has seen this before.
 
 I export an user A, then import it into user B in a
 different database
 and everything is ok.  Then I use the same export
 file to import into
 user C in the same database as user B and all the
 CREATE TYPE 
 failed because Oracle retains the object id in the
 export file and when 
 importing into user C it tries to create them with
 the same object id
 and since user B already has it it failed.  I had to
 manually delete
 the object id from the log and recreate it.
 
 It's not a huge problem since it's rare that I do
 something like this.
 But just wondering why would Oracle retain the
 object id for TYPE?
 It certainly didn't keep the same object id for
 other objects like table, etc.
 
 Any thoughts?

Hi All !!

   Today I came across a typical Hole in Listener Security.
If you have lsnrctl utility (or Database installation) at one
Box, then you can stop the listener on another Box. Just change
the parameter file (listener.ora) to have hostname of another
(may be production server) box. Now goto lsnrctl and fire stop
command. you would notice that the local listener is running
but the remote listener is down...
This is more serious issue on platforms like Unix and VMS 
where you can control listener (locally) only if you are a 
member of DBA group. This means that Listener doesn't have any
cross OS check in it
Is this a known issue/bug. Any-ideas, any patches? Oracle
Corp guys, what you say?

Transparent Gateway for Sybase

2001-07-23 Thread Terrian, Tom

Greetings,

Apparently with the OTG for Sybase, we need to install either the Sybase Client
or Server on our HP box.  However, on the Sybase website, I can only get an
evaluation copy of the Server for NT and Linux.

Has anyone else who has installed OTG for Sybase run into this problem.  Where
did you get the Sybase software?  We are currently studying the OTG option so we
don't want to pay for anything yet.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
Tom

One source for the information is http://travel.yahoo.com/.  A quick
check shows it will probably be in the $200 - 250 range, depending on
how far in advance you book your reservation, day of week, etc.

Re: Newbie kinda question

Purchase the D2K package from Oracle. However Procedure Builder is being phased out by 
Oracle.

 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/23/01 10:55AM 
Hi Everybody,

I'm currently studying for some Oracle Certification from a private organization, 
which will then put me through the Oracle DBA exams. I'm currently working on the 
PL/SQL programming modules. All the information I have consistently refers to 
Procedure Builder for programming with PL/SQL. However, I cannot seem to find where I 
can get a copy of Procedure Builder. I have gotten a copy of TOAD, however I'm not 
entirely happy with it. Statements which are allowed to run in SQL*Plus are not being 
run under TOAD for some reason. 

So, in summary, where can I get a copy of Procedure Builder ?

Thanks,
Michael.

Re: Wildly OT. - Air fares

2001-07-23 Thread Rachel Carmichael

Lee,

You're gonna hate this answer:  it depends.

Dates? times of day? are you flexible on airport? on travel dates and times?

the sites I use to check prices are:

www.orbitz.com
www.travelocity.com
www.expedia.com
www.trip.com

this will give you some idea. On orbitz, for travel July 30 from NY and Aug 
6th back, from LaGuardia to Seattle, I found this:

all are one stopover/plane change, price ranging from $398 to $2297

Now if you fly into NY and don't plan on spending any time here (even if 
it's only a couple of hours in the airport) you do know that I will have to 
hunt you down and hurt you, don't you?  :)

When are you visiting?

Re: Locally managed tablespaces

2001-07-23 Thread Jeremiah Wilton

Is there really any considerable overhead involved in dynamically
allocating an extent?  By creating free space chunks in a tablespace
of uniform extent size, will you really reduce the amount of time and
resources spent when a segment allocates those extents?

I doubt it, but statistics from v$sesstat could convince me otherwise.

 If you are using uniform extents in LMT, you don't want to coalesce
 - ever.  Since every extent will be the same size, it is useless
 overhead.  This is even more true if you have adopted a uniform
 extents policy in any dictionary managed tablespaces.  In fact, to
 reduce the overhead of throwing a new extent in the latter, you
 might try pre-fragmenting the tablespace by creating a junk table
 in it and manually allocating new extents, then dropping the table -
 during a low activity period of course.

Hi,

I would like to know the the number of used cursors at any given time. Is
there a select statement that does this for me?  I would like to decide if
the growing number of concurent users for a given database has reached the
point where the maximum open cursor init ora parameter got to be increased.

Thank you in advance.

RE: Re: init.ora

2001-07-23 Thread Jon Walthour



Rood:

Not exactly correct. The ifile parameter will tell you all the
files included in the init.ora via this method. However, it will
not necessarily give you the location of the init.ora itself.
Now, on a Windows NT system, this is how Oracle is able to keep
the init.ora in the %ORACLE_ADMIN%\%ORACLE_SID%\pfile directory
and still have a link to it in the %ORACLE_HOME%\dbs directory.
However, on UNIX, where symlinks are used, there may be no ifile
parameter in the init.ora and certainly probably not one pointing
to the init.ora itself. Therefore, at best, this parameter is
unreliable for finding the init.ora.

weird recursive sql

2001-07-23 Thread George Schlossnagle



I'm expereinceing a weird problem.

I have a tabl whihcis basically a collection of 
counters (NAME VARCHAR2, COUNTER NUMBER). For various reasons that are 
unimportant in this context the tables work by atempting an insert on (NAME, 1) 
and if that fails they do an update COUNTER = COUNTER +!; This has been 
running fine for 3 years. Suddenly in the past 3 weeks I have been seeing 
performance problems and the sudden appearance of some (apprently) constraint 
checking recursive sql whihc is in direct proportionto the inserts. This 
recursive sql was never in the sqlarea previously. The lines look 
like:

select executions, sqltext from 
v$sqlarea;

166092573INSERT INTO HITCOUNTER ( 
ALIAS,USEHITCOUNTER,HITS ) VALUES ( :b1,1,0 
)165799528select c.name, u.name from con$ c, cdef$ cd, user$ u 
where c.con# = cd.con# and cd.enabled = :1 and c.owner# = 
u.user#

Further if I do:

desc v$session;select sql_text from v$sqlarea 
sq, v$session sewhere prev_sql_addr = 'AA46049C' and prev_hash_value = 
'1318728909'and sql_address = sq.address and sql_hash_value = 
sq.hash_value;
(that sql_address and hsah_value are for the insert 
statement above) I frequently (though not exclusively the recursive 
sql)

I am always returned either no rows or that 
recursive sql statement (and these are not the most executed statements in the 
db either (they are 10th and 11th respectively, and any session is equally 
likely to run any of the the top 20 executed queries, in any pairings), so I 
would expect to see others if this was just a coincidence.

I've searched Metalink and Google for this sql with 
basically no luck, and I have an open Tar which is getting no response. 
has anyone seen anything similair? Any clues, thoughts, etc?

One method I have seen used a lot is to set the TNS_ADMIN variable to point to the 
centralized file.

Another is to have the LAN guys add a check to their login script to check to see if 
the TNSNAMES.ORA has been updated and if it has, have it pushed down when the user 
logs into the LAN.

Microsoft IIS

2001-07-23 Thread dgoulet

Someone, I don't remember who, posted a question a week of so ago about
connecting to Oracle IAS via IIS instead of the provided Apache server because
there damagement was afraid about being hacked.  Well, pass the following along
to damagement  ask them again what they want to do:

** Internet Goes Red

The Code Red worm ripped through Internet servers like no other 
previously unleashed piece of malicious code. We are witnessing 
Internet history, says Chris Rouland, director of Internet 
Security Systems X-Force, which tracks Internet vulnerabilities. 
Based on reports, Code Red has infected over 225,000 servers.

The worm enters the targeted server through port 80. If the host 
is running Microsoft IIS, the worm executes a malformed HTTP 
get request to try to run a buffer overflow against the 
Microsoft IIS Indexing Service dynamic-link library. Once the 
worm successfully exploits the target, it starts searching for 
new servers to infect, and the compromised Web site is defaced.

Code Red's ultimate target was Whithouse.gov. The worm was set to 
attack the White House Web site July 20 by unleashing a torrent 
of traffic at the site. According to Rouland, the White House 
managed to avoid the attack by switching the site's IP address. 
He says the author of Code Red made a critical design flaw by 
hard-coding the White House's IP address. That won't happen next 
time, he warns.

When the ILoveYou virus struck last year, many copycats struck in 
the following weeks. I wouldn't be surprised to see many, many 
copy cats of this worm, he says. In fact, reports started 
surfacing Friday afternoon on security mailing list Bugtraq that 
several versions may already be loose. 

An explanation of, and patch for, the IIS buffer overflow 
vulnerability is available at
http://update.informationweek.com/cgi-bin4/flo?y=eD2T0BdFGA0V20QKW0AK

Has this one bit you? Tell other IT folks what you're doing to 
combat the problem in the Listening Post

RE: backup Oracle on Sun Cluster 2.2 ???

2001-07-23 Thread Kimberly Smith

The whole point of clustering is that if your database crashes it is to
automatically fail over to the other side, therefore making it impossible to
shutdown your database.  

Something I just thought of though is that I some times edit my
startup/shutdown scripts so that
maintenance is performed on failover.  You could try the same I would guess
in Sun.

For a cold backup, simply shut down all Oracle instances accessing the
database to be backed up.  There is no need to shut down any Sun or Veritos
cluster services.

 Hi all,

 Since I am using Sun Cluster 2.2, after I stop my cluster, those clustered

 How can I shutdown my database while my cluster is working (How to

Re: RMAN

2001-07-23 Thread Jay Hostetter

Some misc. notes for RMAN with 8.1.6 on Tru64:

- NLS_LANG must be set to the  character set of the database you are backing 
up/restoring. e.g NLS_LANG=AMERICA_AMERICAN.WE8DEC
- If doing a complete database restore, the database must be started up NOMOUNT.
- When doing a cold backup, the database must be started up MOUNT.
- Opening a database with RESETLOGS consitutes a new database incarnation. 
- Issue a RESET DATABASE after restoring using resetlogs. 
- These commands will tell RMAN to check to see what backup files are available (do it 
before trying to restore anything): 
allocate channel for maintenance type disk; 
crosscheck backup; 

Things I like about RMAN so far:
- backups can be smaller than the database, since only used blocks are backed up.
- incremental backups
- the duplicate functionality
- parallelizing the backup across multiple channels

Things I dislike:
- RMAN sometimes requests some backup files (when I am restoring a database) that I 
don't think it needs.  This may be resolved by doing a database backup, followed by a 
separate command to backup the archivelogs.  Issuing the database and archivelog 
backups in one big happy backup command my not include some of the archives that were 
generated while you were doing the backup (at least that is what Support told me).
- Restoring a cold backup is easier (so I hear) if you use the TAG parameter during 
the backup.  Otherwise you must use a point in time recovery, which requires some 
guessing as to what time/scn/seq# you really want to use.  
- The need to log into the catalog through SQL*Plus to get information that the list 
command doesn't give you.  Sheesh!
- The feeling that I lost a little bit of control to a piece of software that is 
supposed to do some of the thinking for me.  

I'm going through the school of hard knocks here, so I would love to hear from others.

One method I have seen used a lot is to set the TNS_ADMIN variable to point to
the centralized file.

Another is to have the LAN guys add a check to their login script to check to
see if the TNSNAMES.ORA has been updated and if it has, have it pushed down when
the user logs into the LAN.

RE: Wildly OT. - Air fares

2001-07-23 Thread Robertson Lee - lerobe

GULP  I wouldn't dream of going all the way to NY without spending some
time there, so you can stand down :-)

The idea was to fly into NY, spend about 4 nights there. Head off to
Vancouver/Seattle, drive across to Vancouver Island, up to Campbell River,
sea plane back over to the mainland and spend some time with the Grizzlies
in Knights Inlet. Fly home from Vancouver, so the flight from NY to the West
Coast would be one way.

Probably about mid-september 2002.

Lee,

You're gonna hate this answer:  it depends.

Dates? times of day? are you flexible on airport? on travel dates and times?

the sites I use to check prices are:

www.orbitz.com
www.travelocity.com
www.expedia.com
www.trip.com

this will give you some idea. On orbitz, for travel July 30 from NY and Aug 
6th back, from LaGuardia to Seattle, I found this:

all are one stopover/plane change, price ranging from $398 to $2297

Now if you fly into NY and don't plan on spending any time here (even if 
it's only a couple of hours in the airport) you do know that I will have to 
hunt you down and hurt you, don't you?  :)

When are you visiting?
