RE: How to take sql*loader trace
That is why my advice was 10046 trace name context forever, level 8, not SQL_TRACE. With 10046, level 8 you can still get waits (tkprof in 9i understands them).

RE: UNDO Tablespace
The answer for this from our vendor is to increase the size of the UNDO based on their DBAs statement that UNDO is consumed rapidly because every query makes a physical copy of all tables and holds on to them for the retention period. Sherrie, In my considered opinion: Woohoohoohoo. That's a ridiculous thing for a DBA to say. I hope he was misinterpreted somewhere down the line because otherwise he's got a very flimsy grasp of the read-consistency model. In very simple terms Undo is used to hold a copy of any changed data (not the whole table!) which has not been committed and flushed to the datafiles. While it's there the data for an update transaction is available a) to the 'owning' transaction in case it has to ROLLBACK the updates it's made. b) to any other transactions which need to reconstruct the data as it was before the update began. On a more positive note I agree that we need the text of the error message in order to give some help.

RE: Limits on PL/SQL block?
-Original Message- From: Rudy Zung [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm seeing a PLS-00123 program too large error. Oracle's documentation says that the actual limit on the size of the block is dependant on the mix of statements in the PL/SQL block. Does anyone know how Oracle determines this limit? Is it a pure size of PL/SQL block in bytes, or is it number of unique statements in the block, or is it dependant on how much redo that the block may generate? I asked a question about the maximum trigger size on Metalink recently (the 9.2 documentation said that the maximum trigger size is 32K). Short answer - the easiest way to tell if a PL/SQL block is too big: try it and see if you get an error. Here is the full answer from Oracle: The limit of 32k for a trigger is platform dependent. The 32K limit is set taking into account the limit of 64K DIANA Nodes which includes the m-code and parsed-code. You may therefore end up having larger source code if the parsed-code ends up being lesser than the source code. In the shared pool, a package spec, object type spec, stand-alone subprogram, or anonymous block is limited to 64K DIANA nodes. The nodes correspond to tokens such as identifiers, keywords, operators, and so on. The m-code is limited to 64K compiler-generated temporary variables. Unfortunately, you cannot estimate the number of DIANA nodes from the parsed size. Two program units with the same parsed size might require 1500 and 2000 DIANA nodes, respectively (because, for example, the second unit contains more complex SQL statements). When a PL/SQL block, subprogram, package, or object type exceeds a size limit, you get an error such as program too large. Typically, this problem occurs with packages or anonymous blocks. With a package, the best solution is to divide it into smaller packages. With an anonymous block, the best solution is to redefine it as a group of subprograms, which can be stored in the database. You can query the user_object_size table on the database to find out the size of the procedure/package/plsql block. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Jacques Kilchoer INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California-- Mailing list and web hosting services - 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: rman implementation
Sai - Several factors: - This was several years ago, so memory fades. - This was the sys admin's first go at NFS. - Got through the initial configuration issues, and the system was up and running. Then several months later I was trying to use the device for RMAN recovery. It would hang with no errors. Experts on this list provided a lot of useful ideas, and put me much closer to the issue, but finally I ended up pushing Oracle Support. They insisted we take NFS out of the mix, just use regular disk. It worked, which forced the sys admin to go back and review everything. In the rhosts file, had the name with the wrong I.P. number. Surprisingly it would mount, but wouldn't accept heavy loads. And that is about all I can reconstruct on that. Unfortunately probably not particularly useful to you.

We ran into a couple of hitches. If you are able to mount a tablespace on the Netapp device, you should be past the first thing we ran into. The other issue had to do with the fact that RMAN opens many connections to disk, so when we tried to recover the backup, RMAN would recover some files, then quit. Changing a Netapp configuration parameter fixed that problem. Dennis Williams DBA, 80%OCP, 100% DBA Lifetouch, Inc.

Partitioning
I have worked with partitioning before but have yet encountered the following challenge - The table we are trying to partition is a large table with hundreds of millions of rows, which is ok. But it does not have a month column, although it has dates. I would like to partition by month because this table contains years of data and partitioning by days will result in thousands of partitions. Of course we can add a month column but I think that will require extensive downtime which we can't afford and I suspect it will cause row-chaining as well. So anybody care to share with me any other options/suggestions?
