RE: A RMAN question
Hi Dennis, Thanks for replying. I guess I have not been able to make my question clear. You see, I need to backup only the cloned database on server B and NOT the database on server A. My scenario is as follows : The main db on server A is a partitioned data warehouse system and we r planning to copy over the data files and the control files every night to the cloned db on server B. Thereafter, we will b taking a RMAN backup of the cloned db on server B only. As I said, RMAN writes the backup info on the target database's control files when it takes the backup. I also said that we plan to take a full backup on Sundays and incremental backup on the other days. My confusion was : Say, RMAN takes a backup of the database on the cloned db on server B on a Monday. On MOnday night as per procedure, the control files and the database files from the main db on server A are copied over to server B. On Tuesday, will RMAN b happy taking the incremental backup again of the cloned db on server B even though it finds that the control files r different than the ones it wrote the backup info to the previous day ?? Or will it get confused and prompt for a FULL backup ?? Any ideas from anybody would b appreciated a lot.

This ID doesn't change when you clone it as you describe. RMAN uses this ID, and will become confused if it sees two databases that are identical. One way around this is to run two RMAN catalogs. I have not considered it an advantage to use RMAN with the control file (non-catalog) option, so I haven't considered all the ramifications there. Have you looked at the RMAN DUPLICATE command to clone the database? Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 10:14 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi All, Though I have been using RMAN for quite a while now, I would like to ask for a clarification here. We have a production database with partitioning options on server A. We copy over the files (including the control files) of the prod database each night to a server B. We will then be using RMAN to backup the database on server. We intend to take a Full backup on Sundays and Incrementals on all weekdays. I know that when we take a RMAN backup, it writes information about that task to the target database's control files which is precisely why we need not have a catalog database necessarily. My question is when RMAN takes a backup once, will it return an error when tries to take an incremental backup a second time since we have replaced the control files overnight ?? I mean, will RMAN be happy with taking an INCREMENTAL backup of the database even if it finds that the control files on which it had written the backup info the previous night have been replaced with a new set of control files ?? Will it prompt for a full backup ??? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Re: Another partitioning question
If your requirement is very strictly limited, so that a) you want to have the flag column ('X') as the first column of the partition b) the flag is strictly a single character c) you are using a character set where 'W' sorts immediately before 'X' then the best you can do to meet the requirements you describe has two partitions for the not-X values and as many as you like for the X values using: partition Pre_X values less than ('W',maxvalue), partition PX_100 values less than ('X', 100), partition PX_200 values less than ('X', 200), ... partition PX_max values less than ('X', maxvalue), partition post_X values less than (maxvalue, maxvalue) There are several drawbacks to using this strategy though, and I would start by questioning what you hopes to achieve through partitioning and investigate whether this notionally correct solution is going to do what he hopes it would anyway.

This ID doesn't change when you clone it as you describe. RMAN uses this ID, and will become confused if it sees two databases that are identical. One way around this is to run two RMAN catalogs. I have not considered it an advantage to use RMAN with the control file (non-catalog) option, so I haven't considered all the ramifications there. Have you looked at the RMAN DUPLICATE command to clone the database? Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 10:14 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi All, Though I have been using RMAN for quite a while now, I would like to ask for a clarification here. We have a production database with partitioning options on server A. We copy over the files (including the control files) of the prod database each night to a server B. We will then be using RMAN to backup the database on server. We intend to take a Full backup on Sundays and Incrementals on all weekdays. I know that when we take a RMAN backup, it writes information about that task to the target database's control files which is precisely why we need not have a catalog database necessarily. My question is when RMAN takes a backup once, will it return an error when tries to take an incremental backup a second time since we have replaced the control files overnight ?? I mean, will RMAN be happy with taking an INCREMENTAL backup of the database even if it finds that the control files on which it had written the backup info the previous night have been replaced with a new set of control files ?? Will it prompt for a full backup ??? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Oracle Licensing Mess
Someone posted the original on this topic, which I sort of stayed away from, I too often on those types of topics put my foot into the mouth. Anyway, the following came across the wires this morning from Information Week. Some of you may be interested, me I'm off to do some more with PostGres MySql!! Dick Goulet -- ** Oracle's Pricing Dispute Oracle just can't get away from pricing controversies. The software vendor is reportedly seeking extra license fees from customers in a dispute over just what constitutes a user in a batched multiplex computing environment. The consulting firm Meta Group, saying it has received a flurry of calls (from) angry Oracle customers, is urging customers to refuse to pay the fees. Industry observers say Oracle is aggressively enforcing its software license contracts. I hear Oracle is being mean to its customers, Wells Fargo Securities analyst Rob Tholemeier said last week before Oracle reported its third-quarter results. They are reviewing database agreements, being very tough, and trying to get more dollars out of them. Oracle CFO Jeff Henley, when asked about the issue during a conference call with Wall Street analysts, said the company has an ongoing license-compliance program, but that there's no new enforcement initiative under way. Multiplexing involves a shared pool of connections to a back-end database that makes it difficult to determine the actual number of users accessing the database. Under such circumstances, companies generally purchase database licenses on a per-CPU model or pay for all users at the front of the system. But Oracle, according to Meta Group, is trying to expand the definition of multiplexing to include batch feeds from non-Oracle applications into Oracle databases, and that user licenses must be purchased for all users of those source systems. One Meta Group client was told that it would have to pay $2.2 million in additional license fees to remain in compliance. It appears pretty clear to us that they have redefined what multiplexing is to an absurd degree, says Meta Group analyst Charlie Garry. Oracle says this definition has always been its policy. But Meta Group questions Oracle's move on both legal and ethical grounds. - Rick Whiting More on Oracle Oracle 3Q Earnings Drop http://update.informationweek.com/cgi-bin4/flo?y=eGTT0BdFGA0V20BaCt0Ae -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

RE: Re[2]: Fav. Urban Legend...Mem vs Disk
A most enjoyable book Venus on the Half Shell, written by Philip Jose Farmer under the pseudonym Kilgore Trout, who was a character in many novels - particularly Breakfast of Champions - by Kurt Vonnegut, who was a good friend of Mr. Farmer - also the author of the Riverworld trilogy (quadrilogy) and others. Oh, the connections! But the REAL purpose of this post (to keep it On Topic) is to report that my problem with excessive SNPx memory use turned out to be an artifact of upgrading from 8.1.6.0.0 - in which the interMedia Text indexing functions were handled by ExtProc - to 8.1.7.2.5 - in which the iM Text functions are incorporated into the RDBMS kernel. In 8.1.6 the 200MB used during index resyncs was released by ExtProc when the process finished. In 8.1.7 the SNP job runs the resync process and the 200MB used is not released. Periodically stopping and restarting the SNPx processes releases that memory and is an OK workaround. Jack Jack C. Applewhite Database Administrator/Developer OCP Oracle8 DBA iNetProfit, Inc.

RE: Rebuilding Index Organised Tables (IOTs)
Many thanks to all of those people who advised. Unfortunately we are running on 8.1.6.3, so cannot do alter table move.. as well :( If you get any info, please let me know. Meanwhile, here are few bits that I gathered in IOTs. Cheers Kumanan Why use Index-Organized Tables * Fast key-based access to table data for queries involving exact match and range searches. * Changes to the table data (such as adding new rows, updating rows, or deleting rows) result only in updating the index structure (because there is no separate table storage area). i.e. fast. * Also, storage requirements are reduced because key columns are not duplicated in the table and index. The remaining non-key columns are stored in the index structure. * Index-organized tables are particularly useful when you are using applications that must retrieve data based on a primary key. * Index-organized tables are also suitable for modeling application-specific index structures. For example, content-based information retrieval applications containing text, image and audio data require inverted indexes that can be effectively modeled using index-organized tables. * If all your columns contain numbers only, I would say your benefit from this usage is minimized. However you will still benefit from the storage reduction : * Index-organized tables are like regular tables with a primary key index on one or more of its columns. However, instead of maintaining two separate storage spaces for the table and B*tree index, an index-organized table only maintains a single B*tree index containing the primary key of the table and other column values. * Bad for updates as entire rows may have to be moved - as per the index tree structure. * Not good for frequent deletes/updates/ inserts. * Cannot be rebuilt like an index. NB: Except for 8i and above, no other indexes can be created on IOT. For an index-organized table, use the index_organized_table_clause of the syntax. The move_table_clause rebuilds the index-organized table's primary key index B*-tree. The overflow data segment is not rebuilt unless the OVERFLOW keyword is explicitly stated, with two exceptions: * If you alter the values of PCTTHRESHOLD or the INCLUDING column as part of this ALTER TABLE statement, the overflow data segment is rebuilt. * If any of out-of-line columns (LOBs, varrays, nested table columns) in the index-organized table are moved explicitly, then the overflow data segment is also rebuilt. The index and data segments of LOB columns are not rebuilt unless you specify the LOB columns explicitly as part of this ALTER TABLE statement. 117168.1: TS for IOT won't be visible as data can go into TWO different TS's: CREATE TABLE DOCINDEX (token CHAR(20), doc_oid INTEGER, token_frequency SMALLINT, token_occurrence_data VARCHAR2(512), CONSTRAINT pk_docindex PRIMARY KEY (token, doc_oid) ) ORGANIZATION INDEX TABLESPACE text_collection PCTTHRESHOLD 20 INCLUDING token_frequency OVERFLOW TABLESPACE text_collection_overflow; Generate the DDL for the table again with property Index Organised = Yes for full table IOT? 126392.996 create table EASY ( ..., constraint PK_EASY_IDPRIMARY KEY(EASY_ID)) ORAGANIZATION INDEX [STORAGE CLAUSE]; 116899.996 One more thing is if you are going to have lot of manipulations like update, delete on Index organised table, it will increase the burden since it has to reorganise the entire table. It is advisable to have Index orgnised table with less number of manipulations. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

This ID doesn't change when you clone it as you describe. RMAN uses this ID, and will become confused if it sees two databases that are identical. One way around this is to run two RMAN catalogs. I have not considered it an advantage to use RMAN with the control file (non-catalog) option, so I haven't considered all the ramifications there. Have you looked at the RMAN DUPLICATE command to clone the database? Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 10:14 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi All, Though I have been using RMAN for quite a while now, I would like to ask for a clarification here. We have a production database with partitioning options on server A. We copy over the files (including the control files) of the prod database each night to a server B. We will then be using RMAN to backup the database on server. We intend to take a Full backup on Sundays and Incrementals on all weekdays. I know that when we take a RMAN backup, it writes information about that task to the target database's control files which is precisely why we need not have a catalog database necessarily. My question is when RMAN takes a backup once, will it return an error when tries to take an incremental backup a second time since we have replaced the control files overnight ?? I mean, will RMAN be happy with taking an INCREMENTAL backup of the database even if it finds that the control files on which it had written the backup info the previous night have been replaced with a new set of control files ?? Will it prompt for a full backup ??? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

OAS 9i anyone?
Greetings, We are contemplating a purchase of Oracle Application Server 9i. Anyone using it? Mind sharing your experience? What prompted you to purchase an Application Server? Why was Oracle App Server chosen, as opposed to Weblogic, etc? J2EE considerations? Ease of configuration/maintenance? Who's in charge of OAS (DBA, SysAdmin, Developer)? Stability? We've had numerous issues with Weblogic recently, hence the question. Do you feel the ROI has justified the purchase? How many developers are involved in writing apps and/or supporting your installation? Thanks in advance for any and all responses.

Re: kill the procedure Call
If you are using unix, you have to play with tcp kernel parameters. We have tuned these parameters: tcp_ip_abort_interval the time it takes for an existing connection to be closed tcp_ip_abort_cinterval the expiration time for establishing a new connection tcp_time_wait_interval the length of time the server holds a connection in a TIME-WAIT state after the end of the connection tcp_keepalive_interval the time period in which the server will continue sending probes to determine whether a connection is still active tcp_conn_req_max_q the maximum number of completed connections tcp_conn_req_max_q0 the maximum number of connections with handshake incomplete Default values Parameter Default Recommended tcp_ip_abort_interval 480 (8 minutes) 6 (1 minute) tcp_ip_abort_cinterval 18 (3 minutes) 6 (1 minute) tcp_time_wait_interval 24 (8 minutes) 6 (1 minute) tcp_keepalive_interval 720 (2 hours) 90 (15 minutes) tcp_conn_req_max_q 128 256 tcp_conn_req_max_q0 10242048 The best way to determine whether or not a system is having connection problems is to look at the output of the netstat -an command. The netstat -a command displays the current status of connections. With the addtional n option, the command does not attempt to resolve IP addresses as host names, both speeding up the output and making it more predictable. The following netstat command gives a quick summary of the number of TCP connections in each state. bash-2.01# netstat -anP tcp | tail +5 | awk '{print $7}' | sort | uniq -c 27 ESTABLISHED 6 IDLE 36 LISTEN 1 Remote - ignore this line 1 SYN_SENT 24 TIME_WAIT For example, if you see a large number of connections in the TIME_WAIT state, this may indicate that you need to reduce your time wait interval (tcp_ip_time_wait_interval) to a smaller value. If you find many sockets in the FIN_WAIT_2 state, your server is probably waiting for the final ACK from the client before moving to close these connections.

Phone up Embarcadero, and ask them for an extended trial key? This is pretty much the norm for these types of tools.. Embarcadero should just give you a key that will last for another month. Tools like this keep track of if a product was installed previously, and store some obscure key in the registry, so even an un-install cannot get around the license issue. Failing that set your system date back a year : Disclaimer: This is a joke, I do *not* know whether this will work with Embarcadero tools, and recommend that you get in touch with Embarcadero for an extended license key.

RE: A RMAN question
Thanks Jay.actually our clients want it that way that the cloned DB is backed up instead of the production DB. I think u r right about RMAN getting confused when it reads the controlfiles the next day for taking an incremental backup since they will have been replaced overnight. But I am using a recovery catalog database, so I dont understand why won't RMAN just go and take an incremental backup of only the changed blocks anyway instead of bothering about whats there in the control files of the target database. Does this also mean that in case I have to recreate the controlfile of the target database, I can never do an incremental backup during the first go ??

When it looks at the control files for the cloned db, they will have no record of a previous backup. What you are doing is a bit unusual in that the database on server A (which would be considered production) should be backed up. And if you are backing up the database on server A, why bother to backup the datbase on Server B? Especially if you are refreshing it each night. It sounds like you should really be setting up a standby database.

I guess I have not been able to make my question clear. You see, I need to backup only the cloned database on server B and NOT the database on server A. My scenario is as follows : The main db on server A is a partitioned data warehouse system and we r planning to copy over the data files and the control files every night to the cloned db on server B. Thereafter, we will b taking a RMAN backup of the cloned db on server B only. As I said, RMAN writes the backup info on the target database's control files when it takes the backup. I also said that we plan to take a full backup on Sundays and incremental backup on the other days. My confusion was : Say, RMAN takes a backup of the database on the cloned db on server B on a Monday. On MOnday night as per procedure, the control files and the database files from the main db on server A are copied over to server B. On Tuesday, will RMAN b happy taking the incremental backup again of the cloned db on server B even though it finds that the control files r different than the ones it wrote the backup info to the previous day ?? Or will it get confused and prompt for a FULL backup ?? Any ideas from anybody would b appreciated a lot.

Re: Rebuilding Index Organised Tables (IOTs)
Correct, and apologies, it's too easy to give the quick and simple answer. If you want to rebuild the whole thing, without changing tablespaces, then: alter table iot_tab move overflow; You can't move the overflow with an online move, of course (except in Oracle 9, I expect). If you also have LOB columns you may have to add further details to make those move too, such as alter table iot_lob_tab move lob(my_lob) store as my_lob_seg; which would rebuild the index layer, overflow layer, and lobsegment layers.

RE: Oracle hangs...Oracle 8.1.7.3 and Solaris 2.7
Well, unfortunately we haven't solved the problem yet, so I don't have any solutions to share with everyone. We are using Sun hardware, and we have not run diagnostics on the memory. I don't want to dismiss that idea out of hand, but I don't understand how bad memory could be affecting only one of the three instances. There are two other 8.1.7.3 instances that run fine, never even a hiccup. The server has 2GB of memory. The application that uses this database (when its up) is connecting over the network, but when it hangs, you are unable to connect from a remote client or from on the server. I suggested to the support person handling our case that maybe we could try using some of the various oradebug options suggested by people on the list and suggested on Metalink, but he suggested looking at the following things first: This may be caused by a system resource problem. Was this DB relinked after the upgrade? It might help to get the initsid.ora's for all the instances What is the total size of each SGA? What is the value of the PROCESSES for each instance How much physical memory on the system? How much swap space?

RE: Rebuilding Index Organised Tables (IOTs)
Hi Jonathan, Even this may not be the case (in my opinion I could be mistaken, my respects for every one). As you know any index is made of branching blocks and leaf blocks. When we build an index, it's mainly to get rid of deleted rows/entries in the leaf blocks and reclaim that space. Also reorganize the branching blocks (index tree). The way I understand IOT it's made of PK index (ONLY THE BRANCHING BLOCKS PART) plugged into the table segment which could be considered as the leaf blocks. Moving the IOT will rebuild only the branching blocks or the tree part of the index. But the table segment or the leaf blocks will not be changed and will be moved as it's (including deleted entries) to the new place. Overflow is a different issue. Again any feedback and corrections will be appreciated. Unfortunately do not have time now to test what I said. Regards, Waleed -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 12:08 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Correct, and apologies, it's too easy to give the quick and simple answer.

Re: strange tkprof output for SQLs - II
Hello Mogens, I saw this problem whether or not shared pool was flushed for PL/SQLs. Here are my observations for SQLs!!! and PL/SQLs: - Enabling sql trace from current session: When a cursor is closed after their child recursive statements, their recursive statistics parsed after the statement are included in parent's statistics. Recursive statements parsed before the statement are not included. - Enabling sql trace from other session after a while(after the parenet statement is parsed): Recursive statistics are not included in parent statement. But tkprof doesn't use exac values in raw trace file. If they are not included, why doesn't tkprof return exac values in raw trace files ? I'll debug tkprof if it calls Oracle's kernel function to see if tkprof is just a simple formatter or calculates something that I'm missing. I did not understand this is expected behavior or not. I would like to know statistics in raw trace files are inclusive or exclusive. I'm facing diffierent behaviors for this problem. I've opened an iTAR. thanks in advance...

Re: More info on sql query running slow
I agree with /*+ORDERED */ hint suggestion (in combination with inline view). I've seen cases, when inline view itself didn't do the job, but along with /*+ORDERED */ hint proved to be a huge performance benefit. So, try: SELECT /*+ORDERED */ COUNT(a.phy_contract_id) FROM accrued_and_paid a, (select phy_contract_id from phy_contracts where company_id = 16 and contract_type = 'IC') b WHERE a.hold_payment_flag = 'Y' AND b.phy_contract_id = a.phy_contract_id; or, may be changing order of a and b.

Two more things to try : 1) /*+ ORDERED */ and the in-line view first in the FROM clause 2) Not using an in-line view but a a.phy_contract_id in (select ..).

Re: Sightly OT: Unix scripting
(all examples are using /usr/bin/ksh shell) You could do it this way: DATE=$(date '+%y%j') DATE=$((${DATE} - 1)) [ ${#DATE} -eq 4 ] DATE=0${DATE} But you have bigger problems my friend. What happens if the date is 02001 and you subtract 1. The result is 02000 which is invalid. Since you are in a script that is using the db anyway why not do something like this: { sqlplus -s /nolog EOF connect / set pagesize 0 select to_char(sysdate - 1, 'YYDDD') from dual; exit; EOF } | grep -iv connected | read DATE Brian P.

refer to SYSDATE function in a CHECK constraint--doable?
Greetings all, I've got a table with a date field on a 8.1.6.0 db. I'd like to constrain the values entered into this field to be less than or equal to the date on which the record was entered. I figured a table-level check constraint would serve so I ran: ALTER TABLE TLB_COPIES ADD (CONSTRAINT TLBCPY_DATE_LAST_LABEL_CK CHECK (DATE_LAST_LABEL = SYSDATE) EXCEPTIONS INTO COMN_EXCEPTIONS) And Oracle complained thus: ADD (CONSTRAINT TLBCPY_DATE_LAST_LABEL_CK CHECK (DATE_LAST_LABEL = SYSDATE) * ERROR at line 2: ORA-02436: date or system variable wrongly specified in CHECK constraint I've also tried using TO_DATE(SYSDATE) after running accross that expression in some code examples in the docs (does SYSDATE not return a date type?), but get the same error. I've searched through metalink for this error, but everything I've found deals with how you've got to to_date() a date literal (e.g., no implicit conversions) and be sure to use a full four-digit year (as of 8.x I think). But I'm not seeing anything that refers to the sysdate function--is it just not allowed? I'm pretty sure you can use it as a DEFAULT...

RE: Oracle hangs...Oracle 8.1.7.3 and Solaris 2.7
Oracle supports response to my answers was to increase SHMMAX from 128M to 4G and SEMMNS to 2000. Upping the semaphores seems like a good idea, but when I questioned why we should increase SHMMAX to more than 2x the real memory on the machine, the answer was I had my Unix Guru look at these and he recommended the parameters. A little less than what I was hoping for... At this point I am going to start launching my own investigation, from tips from you guys and research on Metalink, to try to find out what these processes are doing when the server is hung. Thanks again for all the help. Reed -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 12:51 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Well, unfortunately we haven't solved the problem yet, so I don't have any solutions to share with everyone. We are using Sun hardware, and we have not run diagnostics on the memory. I don't want to dismiss that idea out of hand, but I don't understand how bad memory could be affecting only one of the three instances. There are two other 8.1.7.3 instances that run fine, never even a hiccup. The server has 2GB of memory. The application that uses this database (when its up) is connecting over the network, but when it hangs, you are unable to connect from a remote client or from on the server. I suggested to the support person handling our case that maybe we could try using some of the various oradebug options suggested by people on the list and suggested on Metalink, but he suggested looking at the following things first: This may be caused by a system resource problem. Was this DB relinked after the upgrade? It might help to get the initsid.ora's for all the instances What is the total size of each SGA? What is the value of the PROCESSES for each instance How much physical memory on the system? How much swap space? Type sysdef -i |grep SHMMAX Type sysdef -i |grep SEMMNS Still waiting for his reply to my answers...

Re: Oracle hangs...Oracle 8.1.7.3 and Solaris 2.7
Hello all, I think problem solving is an art. No one can know every solutions for every problems. If we don't use a methodical way, in other words if we use TEST-AND-SEE way, we waste our time. We should not jump into problem immediately. For your case: A- Problem: session/db hangs We don't know the problem yet. So, we can not talk about memory, IO, network etc. yet. We should not TEST the components one by one and SEE the results. If we don't know how to diagnose memory, what will happen ? or if problem is not related to memory what will happen ? wasting time. B- Identifiying the problem: Now, how will we identify the problem ? In your case, your session is hanging while connecting to db. Which phase: 1- Before handhaking with listener, Take sql*net client trace in level 16 and see 'err' postfix in the trace file. If there is no error message in trace, ignore this phase. 2- After handshaking is completed but before server process is created, Take listener trace in level 16. If there is no error ignore this phase. 3-after server process is created Take sql*net server trace for server process. If there is no error here, ignore this phase. sql*net trace files include OS specific errors too. So, They can give you some directions. Note: Trace files may not include any errors. Check if trace file includes wait-calls from next layer. I mean client requested a server port, but listener may not have returned a server port to client. If you don't see any problems in above steps, you should see that a server process is created. Now, debug this process by a debugger such as adb, dbx. You will see which Oracle's kernel functions are called. If debugger continues to write forever, that means process doesn't hang. If it repeats same kernel funcitons, most probably, it's endless loop. Also, you can dump process states. This can help what is happening there. According to Oracle's last kernel function, we can identify in which function Oracle hangs. You can also take truss,strace,trace output to see last OS call. Of course we can not write the fix, but at least we have an opportunity to identify the problem. regards...

Re: ORACLE 9i Database and Oracle9ias application
Actually, there are a number of InterOperability patches for 9iAS 1.0.2.2 with the 9iDB. I'm only running 9iAS 1.0.2.2 against 8.1.7 yet. BTW, if you check the Certification Matrix on Metalink, do not select the product Application Server (9iAS) This contains incomplete certification for 9iAS 9.0.2 on Solaris. Select Internet Products and then Oracle9i Application Server Enterprise Edition Quoting the certification : Oracle9iAS Rel1 (V1.0.2.2.x) is certified to run against a Oracle9i Database 9.0.1 (on all supported platforms) in RAC configuration. 9iAS 1.0.2.2 can run against any certified 9.0.1 (9i) backend database, with exceptions and limitations: Oracle9iAS Database Cache and Oracle Enterprise Manager functionality are NOT supported in this configuration. In order to run in this configuration, Oracle9iAS Forms Services users should apply Oracle Forms Patch 5. Oracle9iAS Portal - Apply patches for bugs1794996 and 1806057. Apply workaround (07_DICTIONARY_ACCESSIBILITY =true) for bug 1554423 Users connecting from Oracle9iAS v1022 to Oracle9i database through jdbc thin drivers - Apply patch for bug 1725012 9iAS Wireless, J2EE (OC4J), iFS, Unified Messaging and eMail Server are, surpringly, listed seperately in the certification.

Yes, you can use oracle for both, but will need a way to change ORACLE_HOME.

Re: refer to SYSDATE function in a CHECK constraint--doable?
HI Roy, As you have already figured out sysdate cannot be used in a constraint. John [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Greetings all, I've got a table with a date field on a 8.1.6.0 db. I'd like to constrain the values entered into this field to be less than or equal to the date on which the record was entered. I figured a table-level check constraint would serve so I ran: ALTER TABLE TLB_COPIES ADD (CONSTRAINT TLBCPY_DATE_LAST_LABEL_CK CHECK (DATE_LAST_LABEL = SYSDATE) EXCEPTIONS INTO COMN_EXCEPTIONS) And Oracle complained thus: ADD (CONSTRAINT TLBCPY_DATE_LAST_LABEL_CK CHECK (DATE_LAST_LABEL = SYSDATE) * ERROR at line 2: ORA-02436: date or system variable wrongly specified in CHECK constraint I've also tried using TO_DATE(SYSDATE) after running accross that expression in some code examples in the docs (does SYSDATE not return a date type?), but get the same error. I've searched through metalink for this error, but everything I've found deals with how you've got to to_date() a date literal (e.g., no implicit conversions) and be sure to use a full four-digit year (as of 8.x I think). But I'm not seeing anything that refers to the sysdate function--is it just not allowed? I'm pretty sure you can use it as a DEFAULT...

RE: Remote DB Installation
You need to establish a telnet or ssh connection to the remote server.

Re: Remote DB Installation
Just a few options - I'm sure there are others that I haven't listed: 1) VNC from ATT Labs http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/ VNC needs to be installed on client and server. 2) (method I use for Unix/Linux remote installs) SSH w/ X11 tunneling You'll need a local X Server - either buy one that runs on Windows (not sure if any free ones still exist), or I use my Linux machine with XFree86. See ssh docs for details on ssh tunneling. -Joe --- KENNETH JANUSZ [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a possible opportunity to install an Oracle DB (8i or 9i) for a company located in Central America.

RE: Remote DB Installation
Sorry I was too quick in sending. With the telnet, you need some sort of X windows application - liek Reflection X or XWin or something like that. The Oracle Installator will work via this. -Original Message-From: Sujatha Madan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Friday, 22 March 2002 3:08 PMTo: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-LSubject: RE: Remote DB Installation You need to establish a telnet or ssh connection to the remote server.
