RE: Compare (diff) Oracle DB and MS-SQLServer DB
Ray, Have you looked at Embarcardero's DBArtisan tool? I'm not sure if it will do an active compare of the schemas etc. but it certainly works on both Oracle and SQLServer concurrently, and is in the ballpark that you are looking for..

Now, ERWin... I dont think so...not a good idea to use an ER tool. We would end up unnecessarily managing a model within ERWin, and we would have to retrofit the model (complete compare) each time before running the compare. Such a pain, and I would have to hire another person and keep paying another salary just to do this. I want to reduce my headcount not increase it. What we need is a very simple utility. Something like TOAD. But TOAD only works for ORACLE and does not let you set conditions, so it will be useless here. While I am dreaming... lets continue. We need something like an ADVANCED TOAD, i.e. which not only identifies the diffs but shows the deltas exactly, and which allows us to set conditions for the compare (eg: ignore tablespace, ignore INITIAL, ignore datatype, etc.).

Re: Cobol Zone Dec.
1) Zoned decimals is something like hex 'F1F2F3' for 123.
2) Those numbers are not zoned decimal. They look like packed decimal
with the last byte reversed. 'A' is 'C1' in hex and that means 1 positive.

Re: RAC
I agree with Scott's reply. Compaq may be able to claim the only Tru RAC, but not the only true RAC! I skipped the keynote/marketing stuff at IOUG-A Live! 2002, but I've seen the long version of Compaq 's demo/propaganda on RAC and, to put it mildly, they exaggerated - A LOT. I don't know what may have been said at any f their scheduled sessions at the conference, but... The business about (paraphrased) other vendors' RAC implementations being like an HA cluster is pure unadulterated rubbish. There is no constraint on any certified RAC configuration that would limit it to a single active node. (This applies also to at least one extremely non-certified configuration - my personal sandbox). There were four technical people from Compaq at the OPS/RAC roundtable (and one from HP). None made any such preposterous statements. In fact, one of the Compaq representatives said they are currently running RAC on Linux (not Tru64) on Compaq hardware. They did, of course, push Tru64 and its cluster file system. I can verify, from direct experience, that RAC on Linux CAN share a datafile on a raw device. I don't know what was actually said, but the statement attributed to Compaq about this is obviously nonsense. If RAC nodes can share a raw device, they can share a datafile on the raw device. (BTW: Didn't HP also do a Keynote session and demo on RAC?) Perhaps the Compaq representative was confused as to the distinction between an Oracle datafile and a filesystem file. I know that there are currently production RAC systems on NT, Sun, HP, and Compaq - at least. IBM may be on the list also. I know of one small site in the early stages of implementing RAC on a Dell RAC-certified configuration (Dell 6450 nodes running RedHat 7.1 SBE with an EMC FC4700 array). It will likely go into production within 2-3 months. Don Granaman [certifiable OraSaurus] - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 7:38 AM Jonathan, At the seminars I have attended it was pointed out that the :true RAC is COMPAQ only. The seminar was hosted by Oracle/Compaq. Compaq RAC allows multiple CPU's to mount and use/share the same datafiles in a true RAC configuration. The drives including the os drive are on a SAN and shared by the CPU's so knowledge is shared. It was pointed out the new Linux RAC can only share a RAW device and not a datafile. I don't know if this is true as I have not tried it yet. The speaker at the seminar said that with other OS's a RAC is like a High Availability (HA) option, one CPU is doing nothing until the first one fails or you only run different applications and datafiles on one CPU and other applications and datafiles on the second CPU. if one fails you have to mount the datafiles and switch applications to the active CPU.

Re: RAC
Which reminds me of a joke I heard once. You know what the difference between a used car salesman and a computer salesman The used car salesman usually knows when he is lying! ba-dum-dum John [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I agree with Scott's reply. Compaq may be able to claim the "only Tru RAC",but not the only true RAC"!I skipped the keynote/marketing stuff at IOUG-A Live! 2002, but I've seenthe "long version" of Compaq 's demo/propaganda on RAC and, to put itmildly, "they exaggerated - A LOT". I don't know what may have been said atany f their scheduled sessions at the conference, but...The business about (paraphrased) "other vendors' RAC implementations beinglike an HA cluster" is pure unadulterated rubbish. There is no constrainton any certified RAC configuration that would limit it to a single activenode. (This applies also to at least one extremely non-certifiedconfiguration - my personal sandbox). There were four technical people fromCompaq at the OPS/RAC roundtable (and one from HP). None made any suchpreposterous statements. In fact, one of the Compaq representatives saidthey are currently running RAC on Linux (not Tru64) on Compaq hardware.They did, of course, push Tru64 and its cluster file system.I can verify, from direct experience, that RAC on Linux CAN share a datafileon a raw device. I don't know what was actually said, but the statementattributed to Compaq about this is obviously nonsense. If RAC nodes canshare a raw device, they can share a datafile on the raw device. (BTW:Didn't HP also do a "Keynote session" and demo on RAC?) Perhaps the Compaqrepresentative was confused as to the distinction between an Oracle"datafile" and a filesystem "file".I know that there are currently production RAC systems on NT, Sun, HP, andCompaq - at least. IBM may be on the list also. I know of one small sitein the early stages of implementing RAC on a Dell RAC-certifiedconfiguration (Dell 6450 nodes running RedHat 7.1 SBE with an EMC FC4700array). It will likely go into production within 2-3 months.Don Grana man[certifiable OraSaurus]- Original Message -To: "Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L" [EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 7:38 AMJonathan, At the seminars I have attended it was pointed out that the :true RAC"is COMPAQ only. The seminar was hosted by Oracle/Compaq. Compaq RACallows multiple CPU's to mount and use/share the same datafiles in atrue RAC configuration. The drives including the os drive are on a SANand shared by the CPU's so knowledge is shared. It was pointed out thenew Linux RAC can only share a RAW device and not a datafile. I don'tknow if this is true as I have not tried it yet. The speaker at theseminar said that with other OS's a RAC is like a High Availability (HA)option, one CPU is doing nothing until the first one fails or you onlyrun different applications and datafiles on one CP U and otherapplications and datafiles on the second CPU. if one fails you have tomount the datafiles and switch applications to the active CPU. To use a true RAC you have to use Compaq and I think the market shareof the OS's are not True64, so there are probably not a lot of users ofRAC.RonROR mm [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/17/02 10:18PM I was talking w/someone today, and we realized that neitherof us knows of anyone actually using RAC in production.

RE: hi i'm back amongst the living
Come On Walt... I thought you installed Windozz first to allow the Oracle to install without a hitch and then upgraded your pc to Linux. Nt first, SP4,SP5,SP6 then Oracle 8.0, migrate to 8.1.6, upgrade to 8.1.7, patch up to 8.1.7.3, and if your lucky migrate to 9.0.1. When all is said and done and the database is working flawless you install the Linux release you desire. This way you eliminate the glibc and JDK patch for oracle's GUI installers.

Re: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem
Regarding the Enqueues: One follow-up is to connect as SYS and look at x$ksqst where ksqstwat != 0. This tells you two things (after the event). First, which type of enqueue has suffered waits, and secondly whether the waits in v$session_wait are represent a few very long waits or lots of shorter waits. (v$session_wait increments every 3 seconds, x$ksqst just once at the end) However, since your wait time is a large fraction of your elapsed time, you will probably be able to get some extra information simply by running a query against v$session_wait where name = 'enqueue' a couple of dozen times in quick succession. For the same reason, if you look at v$lock where request != 0 at regular intervals, you will be able to see the type and id of the wait. If you can identify the enqueue type, request mode, and id values, then you can track down causes more easily. Regarding the db file sequential read: Can I confirm that your report is describing a job where your session runs for six hours, and reports 1 hour of enqueues, and 4 hours of db file sequential reads, in that six hours ? If that is the case, then even though the reads are very fast reads (presumably helped by a large file-system buffer) then I suspect your SQL (or the strategy surrounding your use of SQL) needs to be examined. You MAY be doing an extreme amount of logical I/O to require 7M single block reads for one (effective) hour of CPU usage. For example, it is possible that the code has been 'tuned' to eliminate tablescans and increase hit ratios, with the detrimental side-effect that the logical I/O has gone up dramatically, and increased the actual cost of physical I/O. It is possible that the code has been written to loop through cursors and 'emulate' joining by executing several simple statements per row of the main cursor. In the short term, you may get an improvement in performance by shifting memory away from the file system buffer and into the Oracle buffer. The logical I/O won't drop, but the number of waits for filesystem interaction may. Anjo, the 307 is interesting. I have seen 307 and 107 (depending on wait event) appear as the max time with remarkable frequency on Windows systems, even when the machines were idle. I wonder if this may be due to some tick-granularity on Windows/DOS-based machines, rather than stress. (In fact, the first time I saw this was on a Sun that was under extreme pressure, and I made the same assumption that you did - now I'm beginning to wonder if there is more to it than that).

It has been pointed out that there is one case in which it might be better to buy more slower CPUs. If an application has a number of highly CPU intensive processes (or threads) greater than or equal to the number of CPUs available, then the CPU usage will be unacceptably high. High CPU usage increases context switching overheads and introduces a risk of latch contention. If for some reason the CPU intensive processes cannot be tamed, then buying a greater number of slower CPUs may give better overall performance, despite the reduced CPU capacity and scalability. @ Regards, @ Steve Adams -Original Message- Sent: Friday, 19 April 2002 1:58 We are in the process of sizing a new server for multiple Oracle instances.

Re: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem
Oracle waits normally 3 seconds on a TX enqueue, checks for interrupts and goes again to sleep for 3 seconds. So if we see 307 on average, we waited longer. Now there may be tons of reasons of why that is: scheduling, granularity, etc. The thing to know/remember is that an enqueue wait is counted differently in different parts of the Oracle kernel. You can check for the session in v$sesstat (where name or stat# = 'enqueue waits') that will tell you how often the session waited for an enqueue. So take the wait time from v$session_event for enqueue and divide that by enqueue waits (v$sesstat) and you have the average enqueue wait time. If we can't trust the timing on NT we probably need a tool that samples more precisely ;-) Anjo. Jonathan Lewis wrote: Regarding the Enqueues: One follow-up is to connect as SYS and look at x$ksqst where ksqstwat != 0. This tells you two things (after the event). First, which type of enqueue has suffered waits, and secondly whether the waits in v$session_wait are represent a few very long waits or lots of shorter waits. (v$session_wait increments every 3 seconds, x$ksqst just once at the end) However, since your wait time is a large fraction of your elapsed time, you will probably be able to get some extra information simply by running a query against v$session_wait where name = 'enqueue' a couple of dozen times in quick succession. For the same reason, if you look at v$lock where request != 0 at regular intervals, you will be able to see the type and id of the wait. If you can identify the enqueue type, request mode, and id values, then you can track down causes more easily. Regarding the db file sequential read: Can I confirm that your report is describing a job where your session runs for six hours, and reports 1 hour of enqueues, and 4 hours of db file sequential reads, in that six hours ? If that is the case, then even though the reads are very fast reads (presumably helped by a large file-system buffer) then I suspect your SQL (or the strategy surrounding your use of SQL) needs to be examined. You MAY be doing an extreme amount of logical I/O to require 7M single block reads for one (effective) hour of CPU usage. For example, it is possible that the code has been 'tuned' to eliminate tablescans and increase hit ratios, with the detrimental side-effect that the logical I/O has gone up dramatically, and increased the actual cost of physical I/O. It is possible that the code has been written to loop through cursors and 'emulate' joining by executing several simple statements per row of the main cursor. In the short term, you may get an improvement in performance by shifting memory away from the file system buffer and into the Oracle buffer. The logical I/O won't drop, but the number of waits for filesystem interaction may. Anjo, the 307 is interesting. I have seen 307 and 107 (depending on wait event) appear as the max time with remarkable frequency on Windows systems, even when the machines were idle. I wonder if this may be due to some tick-granularity on Windows/DOS-based machines, rather than stress. (In fact, the first time I saw this was on a Sun that was under extreme pressure, and I made the same assumption that you did - now I'm beginning to wonder if there is more to it than that).

Re: HIGH CPU WITH MULTIPLE CONCURRENT USERS (long)
I've got a little lost about who has said what in answer to whom about what - so apologies if I'm repeating comments, answering non-questions and giving incorrect attributions. The primary problem appears to be that performance plunges dramatically when concurrent increases. Three tkprof outputs for single use and multiple use are quoted below. The examples taken from 20 concurrent users are the best case and worst case of several reported. The first point is one that someone has already made, you have a hard limit on the number of CPU seconds available per second. NOTE - there are 4 CPUs on the system. Single user - takes 1.75 CPU seconds to run the query. Therefore 20 users should take about 35 CPU seconds to run all 20 copies of the query. Sharing this time across 4 CPUs you get an elapsed time of 8.75 seconds per user to complete. The worst case takes 9.81 seconds elapsed, the best takes 6.48. The range is a little surprising, but not totally insane. The fact that CPU usage (which is only accurate to the 1/100 sec per call) goes up from 1.76 to about 1.90 seconds is also not entirely ridiculous, especially when the CPUs are all operating under a run-queue of 5 tasks. The second point is the one I made earlier - I think your problem is excessive CPU in the optimisation phase, and I think this is related to the 50 values in your IN-list. Is your execution path an in-list iterator or a concatenation. Can you try running the query with the no_expand hint and seeing what the difference in CPU is ? Until you can reduce the CPU time to something like 0.01 seconds, your application will not scale. (Your simple table isn't partitioned is it ?)

Re: Number of CPUs vs. Speed of CPUs
My view: if you have a lot of contention: few fast CPUs if you have virtually no contention: few fast CPUs or large number of slower CPUs. if you have a lot of contention and a large number of slow CPUs, your contention will become worse (basically it will take longer to execute the synchronized code and with more cpu's there is more chance for sessions spinning on a latch ).

One of our subscribers asked Adrian Cockcroft, the author of Sun Performance and Tuning at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0130952494/ixora for a second opinion. Here is Adrian's response ... Few faster CPUs is a little more efficient and has lower response time. More slow CPUs gives a flatter more predictable response time curve as the load increases so you can run nearer 100% busy. Read any book on queuing theory, especially Neil Gunther's Practical Performance Analyst at http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/059512674X/ixora.

It has been pointed out that there is one case in which it might be better to buy more slower CPUs. If an application has a number of highly CPU intensive processes (or threads) greater than or equal to the number of CPUs available, then the CPU usage will be unacceptably high. High CPU usage increases context switching overheads and introduces a risk of latch contention. If for some reason the CPU intensive processes cannot be tamed, then buying a greater number of slower CPUs may give better overall performance, despite the reduced CPU capacity and scalability. @ Regards, @ Steve Adams -Original Message- Sent: Friday, 19 April 2002 1:58 We are in the process of sizing a new server for multiple Oracle instances.

Re: ORA-00600 [12333], [0], [0]
Unfortunately, support is correct. But to add a bit more: 600/12333
indicates that the two task layer in Oracle (just above sqlnet) has received
a function code, that it does not understand. I've been involved in a few
cases with this error, and we did also not reach any conclusion. My personal
opion is that this is really caused by problems/bugs in the underlying
network (either lower parts of protocol stack or hardware) or by bugs in
Oracle code. The latter - as subscribers to this mailing list will now - is
difficult to get a real handle on without a reproducible case.

Log on denied.... from script: Urgent - Pre-production Testing
Hi, We have an ETL script that logs onto the db. The scripts usually runs without error. During pre-production testing, we rec'd a logon denied error message. We re-ran the scripts and all was fine. I did not see anything in the alert log, only message for today was a redo log roll. Can anyone point me in the direction to troubleshoot this issue. We are in the testing phase of a system that is scheduled to go live and I am not preparded to allow this type of thing to slip by. Are there some other misc log either on Unix or Oracle that I can check to see what may have happed? I am running Oracle 8.1.7. on Sun Solaris 8 (both 64 bit).

Long time for Batch Processing
Hello All, We are observing a strange problem for a couple of days. One of our batch process which usually takes about 30 minutes to complete sometimes takes upto 8 hours to complete and this varies even though the batch load is almost the same everynight. Some details on the job The job is a simple Oracle replication process of about 20-25 tables. Put a trace on the session during the time it spent a lot of time and observed that the inserts into our table took a very long time. No waits were observed. The tkprof report shows the CPU time = Elapsed Time. One other thing observed was the RBS usage jumped up to around 8 Gb.The table size is only 700M, add about 5 indexes to it, still does not explain why RBS usage should be so high. On normal days i.e. when it gets processed in 30 mts., the RBS usage is only about 100M. After the job is done, the database size increase is only about 100M, so wonder what goes into the RBS. No transactions in the database at the time the batch runs. Behaviour is not consistent, some days are good , others bad. Did complete network testing, no problems, server tests, disk transfer tests , everythings seems fine. The DB is an 8.17 database. Any idea folks how to proceed. Thanks Satish
RE: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem
Hi Anjo, Q1: Are you running multiple jobs at the same time ? Could be true because you are running out of CPU How can you tell we are running out of CPU??? We are a development shop and have about 30 instances running on a single database server. There was just one major job running on this particular instance during the afternoon (although there may have been 3 or 4 additional connections). I will talk to the programmers about possible improvements to the SQL statements ... Thanks for the suggestions! Sam. p.s. If I have convincing evidence that the CPU on this box is overtaxed, it may help me to get another database server to spread instances onto. *** Date: Thu, 18 Apr 2002 23:22:17 +0200 Subject: Re: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem Sam, The enqueue problem looks like an TX enqueue problem. Given the fact that the average wait is 307 and max wait is 308, I can see that you are also running out of CPU on your box. The normal max_wait should be 300 and the average wait should be less than 300. So the question now is why is there an TX enqueue problem. Q1: Are you running multiple jobs at the same time ? Could be true because you are running out of CPU The different jobs could interfere with each other. Given the fact that only 4 log file sync's have been done, could indicate some job control updates take place. The problem with db file sequential read is not the average speed (2 msec is fast), but there are peaks (max_wait of 290 msec) and the real problem is 7.2 million read operations. The question you need to ask your self: Do I need to do that many I/O operations ? Could I tune the SQL to reduce the number of I/O or utilize my cache better ?

RE: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem
Jonathan, Thanks for your response. The programmer stopped the process last night because it was taking too long ... so there was nothing in x$ksqst when I looked this morning. However, thanks for the tips on how to troubleshoot this further. Can I confirm that your report is describing a job where your session runs for six hours, and reports 1 hour of enqueues, and 4 hours of db file sequential reads, in that six hours ? Yes, that is what v$session_event showed me. And I confirmed the start time with the programmer. Sam. *** Waits Problem Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2002 13:14:19 +0100 Regarding the Enqueues: One follow-up is to connect as SYS and look at x$ksqst where ksqstwat != 0. This tells you two things (after the event). First, which type of enqueue has suffered waits, and secondly whether the waits in v$session_wait are represent a few very long waits or lots of shorter waits. (v$session_wait increments every 3 seconds, x$ksqst just once at the end) However, since your wait time is a large fraction of your elapsed time, you will probably be able to get some extra information simply by running a query against v$session_wait where name = 'enqueue' a couple of dozen times in quick succession. For the same reason, if you look at v$lock where request != 0 at regular intervals, you will be able to see the type and id of the wait. If you can identify the enqueue type, request mode, and id values, then you can track down causes more easily. Regarding the db file sequential read: Can I confirm that your report is describing a job where your session runs for six hours, and reports 1 hour of enqueues, and 4 hours of db file sequential reads, in that six hours ? If that is the case, then even though the reads are very fast reads (presumably helped by a large file-system buffer) then I suspect your SQL (or the strategy surrounding your use of SQL) needs to be examined. You MAY be doing an extreme amount of logical I/O to require 7M single block reads for one (effective) hour of CPU usage. For example, it is possible that the code has been 'tuned' to eliminate tablescans and increase hit ratios, with the detrimental side-effect that the logical I/O has gone up dramatically, and increased the actual cost of physical I/O. It is possible that the code has been written to loop through cursors and 'emulate' joining by executing several simple statements per row of the main cursor. In the short term, you may get an improvement in performance by shifting memory away from the file system buffer and into the Oracle buffer. The logical I/O won't drop, but the number of waits for filesystem interaction may. -Original Message- From: Sam Bootsma Sent: April 18, 2002 5:33 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem We have a batch job taking a long time to process.

Date fields store as varchar2???
Hello, Our DB has a GMT time zone, while our data warehouse has EST. For our application, some guys here insist that we store dates as varchar2 to avoid all the problems associated with data in the two databases. Though personally I want the dates to be stored in oracle date datatype, I would like to know more about how date fields behave in different processes... like 1) Snapshots - if the date in the data WH is going to be refreshed via a snapshot, what will the value be. 2) Export/Import 3) SQLLoader I depend on this list to give me some expert advice on this.

Re: EMC Storage Array Issue
Since I started this thread, I thought I'd update everyone on what the problem ended up being. There is a problem with one of the power supplies on the switch in the SAN. The other power supply was not plugged in, so it halted everything occasionally. We plugged the other power supply in, and haven't had the problem since. Now we need to get the power supply replaced. Interesting that EMC tried to blame it on Oracle first. Scott Canaan wrote: We have implemented a Sun Solaris Cluster (4 machines), connected to an EMC storage array. The migration began last fall, and we now have 15 Oracle instances, with a mixture of 8.1.6 and 8.1.7, located there. We recently have had 2 occurances of asynchronous I/O wait times exceeded. When this occurs, every database crashes at the same time. The solution from EMC is to turn asynchronous I/O off in all of the Oracle instances (disk_async_io = false) and to increase the database writer slaves (dbwr_io_slaves = something not 0) to emulate asynchronous I/O. Has anyone run into this problem before? If so, how did you correct it? My feeling is that EMC is trying to give us a bandage to cover up the real problem, by trying to get Oracle to ignore it.

RE: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem
Hi Jonathan/Anjo/Sam: Let me say that v$system_event (and I assume it´s valid for v$session_event too) does not report the enqueue average wait time correctly. (unless until version 8.1.6, I don't know what version are you using) To calculate the precise number of enqueue waits you have to use v$sysstat enqueue waits (*) statistic or to do TOTAL_WAITS-TOTAL_TIMEOUTS (*). it's the same. So, to get the correct average you should divide TIME_WAITED/(*). In order to resolve the enqueue waits I'd take Jonathan advice. First identify the class of enqueue wait you're facing. You can do that running a query against v$session_wait (like Jonathan said) or by tracing the session with event 10046 and interpreting the output. Is this the only transaction running against these tables in the moment you're executing this procedure? If this were true, then I think it'd not be possible to see enqueue waits of type TX. right? So it must be another type of enqueue problem. Find out which type of enqueue problem you have. select * from x$ksqst where ksqstwat != 0 HTH Greetings Diego Cutrone - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 19, 2002 10:59 AM Jonathan, Thanks for your response. The programmer stopped the process last night because it was taking too long ... so there was nothing in x$ksqst when I looked this morning. However, thanks for the tips on how to troubleshoot this further. Can I confirm that your report is describing a job where your session runs for six hours, and reports 1 hour of enqueues, and 4 hours of db file sequential reads, in that six hours ? Yes, that is what v$session_event showed me. And I confirmed the start time with the programmer. Sam. *** Waits Problem Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2002 13:14:19 +0100 Regarding the Enqueues: One follow-up is to connect as SYS and look at x$ksqst where ksqstwat != 0. This tells you two things (after the event). First, which type of enqueue has suffered waits, and secondly whether the waits in v$session_wait are represent a few very long waits or lots of shorter waits. (v$session_wait increments every 3 seconds, x$ksqst just once at the end) However, since your wait time is a large fraction of your elapsed time, you will probably be able to get some extra information simply by running a query against v$session_wait where name = 'enqueue' a couple of dozen times in quick succession. For the same reason, if you look at v$lock where request != 0 at regular intervals, you will be able to see the type and id of the wait. If you can identify the enqueue type, request mode, and id values, then you can track down causes more easily. Regarding the db file sequential read: Can I confirm that your report is describing a job where your session runs for six hours, and reports 1 hour of enqueues, and 4 hours of db file sequential reads, in that six hours ? If that is the case, then even though the reads are very fast reads (presumably helped by a large file-system buffer) then I suspect your SQL (or the strategy surrounding your use of SQL) needs to be examined. You MAY be doing an extreme amount of logical I/O to require 7M single block reads for one (effective) hour of CPU usage. For example, it is possible that the code has been 'tuned' to eliminate tablescans and increase hit ratios, with the detrimental side-effect that the logical I/O has gone up dramatically, and increased the actual cost of physical I/O. It is possible that the code has been written to loop through cursors and 'emulate' joining by executing several simple statements per row of the main cursor. In the short term, you may get an improvement in performance by shifting memory away from the file system buffer and into the Oracle buffer. The logical I/O won't drop, but the number of waits for filesystem interaction may. -Original Message- From: Sam Bootsma Sent: April 18, 2002 5:33 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem We have a batch job taking a long time to process.

Re: Pinhitratio vs gethitratio
Tracy, The best thing you can do to your sanity is to completely ignore these kinds of ratios. If the wait interface shows a problem you might now and then end up looking at certain ratios in order to determine the real reason for waits, but that's it. Ratios as the ones you mention are meaningless.

Re: Enqueue and DB File Sequential Read Waits Problem
Diego, Let me say that v$system_event (and I assume its valid for v$session_event too) does not report the "enqueue" average wait time correctly.

(unless until version 8.1.6, I don't know what version are you using) To calculate the precise number of enqueue waits you have to use v$sysstat "enqueue waits" (*) statistic or to do TOTAL_WAITS-TOTAL_TIMEOUTS (*). it's the same. So, to get the correct average you should divide TIME_WAITED/(*). In order to resolve the enqueue waits I'd take Jonathan advice. First identify the class of enqueue wait you're facing. You can do that running a query against v$session_wait (like Jonathan said) or by tracing the session with event 10046 and interpreting the output. Is this the only transaction running against these tables in the moment you're executing this procedure? If this were true, then I think it'd not be possible to see enqueue waits of type TX. right?

RE: REPLICATION/FAIL OVER
Seema - I have only done just a little testing of replication, so I'm hardly the expert. I believe the answer to your question is yes. You can make db1 the master site for the 4 tables and db2 the master site for the 3 tables. The bigger question is whether changes can be made to these tables from either side. If the answer is no, then simple snapshots will be sufficient. If the answer is yes, then you must look at how the application is designed. Can you make changes to the application to avoid problems in replication? But people tend to approach replication with a set of ideas and then find that they must change those ideas as they learn more. Oracle Replication is not a high-volume method, so you must have a good handle on how many rows will get changed each day. A good book is Oracle Distributed Systems by Charles Dye.

Re: EMC Storage Array Issue
Hi Scott/All, We have been able to identify the root cause for the issues we had with EMC during the last 2 weeks. The root cause was an issue with EMC PowerPath in a SAN environment where it was not able to resolve alternate paths. We are upgrading from PowerPath Version 1.3 to Version 2.0 to resolve the problem. The frame didn't dial out to EMC and it took some time before we identified the root cause. Regards, Denny Recently we had issues with EMC. Last week we started getting IO timeout on one of our frames followed by files being accessed disappearing. We lost controlfiles, redo log files and library files. EMC hasn't been able to tell us why it happended. I would like to hear about solutions/explanation they come up with for your problem. Quoting Scott Canaan [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Since I started this thread, I thought I'd update everyone on what the problem ended up being. There is a problem with one of the power supplies on the switch in the SAN. The other power supply was not plugged in, so it halted everything occasionally. We plugged the other power supply in, and haven't had the problem since. Now we need to get the power supply replaced. Interesting that EMC tried to blame it on Oracle first. Scott Canaan wrote: We have implemented a Sun Solaris Cluster (4 machines), connected to an EMC storage array.

When this occurs, every database crashes at the same time. The solution from EMC is to turn asynchronous I/O off in all of the Oracle instances (disk_async_io = false) and to increase the database writer slaves (dbwr_io_slaves = something not 0) to emulate asynchronous I/O.

Re: Date fields store as varchar2???
Storing dates as varchar2 doesn't sound like a good idea to me, especially in a data warehouse. All date comparisons will require converting to date type. In many cases you probably don't want to stored dates in your data warehouse anyway. They should be in a robust date dimension table. The date component is used to determine the key to the date dimension table at load time. If you want to keep the time component in the DW you will need to determine the granularity required and make it a part of your date dimension for consistency. That could conceivably create a rather large date dimension. Granularity for 10 year date dimension: 1 day: 3652 rows 1 hour: 87,648 rows 1 minute: 525,880 rows 1 second: 315,532,800 rows That last one is a seriously large dimension! A little too big for practicality. 1) Snapshots - if the date in the data WH is going to be refreshed via a snapshot, what will the value be. GMT 2) Export/Import GMT 3) SQLLoader GMT Your DW in EST will not know that these are EST dates. Prior to 9i, Oracle really is not too aware of TZ. I haven't yet explored what 9i will do though in the way of TZ. Hope you aren't querying your DW with 'sysdate'. :) Jared On Friday 19 April 2002 12:28, Celine John wrote: Hello, Our DB has a GMT time zone, while our data warehouse has EST. For our application, some guys here insist that we store dates as varchar2 to avoid all the problems associated with data in the two databases. Though personally I want the dates to be stored in oracle date datatype, I would like to know more about how date fields behave in different processes... like 1) Snapshots - if the date in the data WH is going to be refreshed via a snapshot, what will the value be. 2) Export/Import 3) SQLLoader I depend on this list to give me some expert advice on this.

Re: MySQL vs. Oracle database
Um, no, not really.
SAPDB is Sybase, pure and simple.

I don't think you're wrong. MySQL gets dissed frequently on this list,
but it's really a nice little product. IMHO it's much closer to Oracle
than Access.
It works well for us. Doesn't scale like Oracle, but works well.
In some ways it scales better than Oracle. For load+query
(a.k.a., warehouse) operations it can be faster than
Oracle because it doesn't get tangled up with rollbacks,
etc. On systms with many instances it also can be much
simpler to administer.

Re: Good Article on differences between ORACLE and SQLServer

Re: Number of CPUs vs. Speed of CPUs
Power units are history. You can renew them, but you can't buy more. It's by CPU or named user per server. Jared On Thursday 18 April 2002 14:20, Seefelt, Beth wrote: I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure you still pay by power units. a 4 x 200Mhz costs the same as a 1 x 800Mhz. I agree to some extent, but fewer and faster should not be a hard and fast rule. There are other things to consider, like how many concurrent cpu intensive processes are running on the system. On a single cpu system, it only takes 1 bad query to hog the entire system, with 2 cpus, they can only suck up 50% of it at most...and can your application benefit from parallelism? -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, April 18, 2002 3:44 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L I may be blowing smoke out my back side but here is my opinion: Fewer and Faster Reasons: I think Oracle has started to license by cpu instead of the power units thing. So if it is cpu number, then fewer and faster is cheaper. Oracle also was and may still be licensing based on maximum box capacity. So if you have 2 machines that are both 4 way (4 cpu's installed), but machine one max'es at a 4 way and the second machine max'es at a 10 way, you pay more for each license on the 10 way than the 4 way even thought the 10 way is using just 4 cpu's. Doesn't make much sense to me but that's how pricing worked last fall. From an OS level, when cpu's are added it's a diminishing return issue. So historically a 4 x 800mhz is faster than a 8 x 400mhz. Brian P.

System applying grants
Hi gurus, I created a script to assign some grants automatically to some roles and users. As the user sys, I assigned to user system the GRANT ANY PRIVILIGE, GRANT ANY ROLE, roles and when run the script get the error of insufficient privileges. What I dont want is to connect to each user to apply the grants. How can achieve that ?

Hi all, I'm confuse with Segment Header and Data file header. some said LMT keep the free block information (bitmap) in Segment header and some said Data file header. I have 3 questions 1. where oracle keep LMT bitmap each data file header or each segment header ? 2a. if it is store in data file header can one tell whether is LMT or DMT by view (first line) of the physical file ? 2b. if it is stored in segment header which view of base tables store these information. 3.

Re: System applying grants
That won't give SYS the privileges you think it does. For any user, including SYS, to be allowed to grant direct privileges on another users objects, that user must have explicity direct grants with the 'with grant option'. e.g. to allow SYS to grant privileges on the table EMP owned by SCOTT, you must log in as SCOTT and issue this command: GRANT ALL ON EMP TO SYS; The user SYS will now be able to grant privilege on SCOTT.EMP to other users.
