Hi good people-

Does anyone out there know of the equivalent of oracles
RMAN in MS SQL server environs.

Im investigating the possibility of having my SQL

Oracle Press OCP exam guide frustrations

2003-09-16 Thread Craig Munday
All,

I just purchased a Oracle9i Fundamentals I exam guide published by Oracle 
Press and am very disappointed with the quality of the publication.  There 
seems to be quite a few mistakes, misleading sentences and typos (not in 
the Errata) which is very frustrating.

Also, there is a question in the Managing Tablespaces and Datafiles 
chapter that replies on the order of the multiple-choices, however the quiz 
software randomises the choices so the question no longer makes sense - and 
is impossible to answer as presented.

For those that have completed the OCP exam, is this what I am to expect?

Does anyone know of any other resources I might be able to use?  How are 
the OCP exam guides published by Sybex?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Craig.

There is no MSSQL utility that is directly 
equivalent to RMAN. You use Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer to manage 
backups.

RMAN-03015 error during TSPITR

2003-09-16 Thread Prem Khanna J
Hi,

My target instance is 9.2.0.4 on Host A ( Ms-win2k + SP3 ).
My recovery catalog is also 9.2.0.4 on Host B ( Ms-win2k + SP3 ).

My target destination for backup files is R:\ which resides 
on Host C (WinNT).This drive R:\ is common to both Host A and B. 
Things work fine accessing R:\ from both Host A and B.

I tried a TSPITR following the doc. 180436.1. It is for 8i.
Question #1: is it applicable for 9i also ?

If YES,

when i say (on Host A,the target),

run { 
   ALLOCATE AUXILIARY CHANNEL A1 TYPE DISK; 
   ALLOCATE CHANNEL c1 TYPE DISK; 
   recover tablespace users until time TO_DATE('MAR-05-2002 11:27:00', 'MON-DD- 
HH:MI:SS'); 
} 

i get the error below:

channel a1: starting datafile backupset restore
channel a1: specifying datafile(s) to restore from backup set
restoring datafile 1 to D:\ORACLE\ORA92\DATABASE\;\SYSTEM01.DBF
released channel: a1
released channel: c1

ORA-27040: skgfrcre: create error, unable to create file
OSD-04002: unable to open file
O/S-Error: (OS 3) Path not found.

Question #2: 
  
db_file_name_convert=(d:\oracle\oradata\pe92,d:\oracle\oradata\aux92);

log_file_name_convert=(d:\oracle\oradata\pe92,d:\oracle\oradata\aux92);

why does RMAN try to restore SYSTEM01.DBF to
  D:\ORACLE\ORA92\DATABASE\  ? 

i have not mentioned this path anywhere in my recovery action.

Question #3:

though it is not restore path,why does RMAN's Memory script append ;\ in the path 

i.e.,D:\ORACLE\ORA92\DATABASE\;\SYSTEM01.DBF

this is where it fails.

can someone explain me where the problem is ?

TIA.
Jp.

WAN Simulator :-

We have a WAN Simulator with 2 routers at either ends of it. 

Thruputs from 0 to 2 MBPS can be manually set as is required by the
run.



Application = Banking :-

Transactions mainly OLTP in nature (Both DML  SELECTS) . 

We can do CPU intensive batch Transactions too if advised by you

RE: Rman equivalent for MS-SQL server

2003-09-16 Thread Mark Leith
You can actually use Database Maintenance Plans, to mimic RMAN to a certain
extent. Database Maintenance Plans is basically a wizard that generates a
load of MSDB jobs that get run by the SQL*Agent. This does have some
limitations though. It has no support for differential backups, doesn't
support appended backups to an already existing device, you can't duplex
back up files, and a number of the backup options aren't available.

This is described in some detail in  SQLServer for Oracle DBAs an e-book
that I would highly recommend to all primarily Oracle DBAs that have to do a
certain amount of SQLServer work too.

This 
beast does not exist. You can use the Database Maintenance Plans in EM to 
manage your backups. I have found these to be flaky and prefer writing my 
own custom backup plans in scripts and schedule these as jobs. >From my 
experience on SQL Server I recommend doing a native SQL Server backup to disk, 
then have the third party backup software pickup those files to 
tape.

Re: Checking for code using hints(from database)

2003-09-16 Thread Tanel Poder
(reposting)

Hi!

I think you should focus on why you do have bad performance/CBO decisions
when all tables have been analyzed. Finding most expensive operations
(v$sql, 10046 trace, tkprof) - comparing their execution plans with
different statistics (tkprof, explain plan, v$sql_plan in 9i) - finding the
reasons behing bad CBO decisions (10053 trace).

But if you really want to search for hints, then you should search for
'%/*+%' in v$sql during normal database usage time (not v$sqlarea, because
it's access is more CPU resource hungry). DBA_SOURCE provides you
information about stored pl/sql only and you can't search wrapped code.

Hi!

In 9i, you can actually dbv files online. No blocks are falsely detected
as corrupt, they're just rescanned in case block header  tail SCN and wrap
bytes don't match. If the block is continuously in change, then block is
reported as being in flux not corrupt.

 Hi All!

 This is a question for the script gurus out there.  I am running
 an SAP system.  Recently, during a DR test, we found several
 files with corruption.  These were found originally with an
 ORA-600 [12700], and confirmed with dbv.

 So now they want me to run dbv's on the database files during
 the maintenance window.  Now, I can create a script that will
 scan all the files, but it's linear and will take for-flipping-ever.

 So, has anyone out there created a script (csh, ksh, sh, perl, whatever)
 that can take a parameter list of files, and keep several child
 processes running at a time?

 What I want to do is create a list of all database files.  This list
 would be input to a script that would keep 'n' child processes
 running (running 'dbv') until the list was exhausted.  Say that 'n'
 was six.  This process would keep 6 dbv's running.  When one child
 dbv process finished, the next in line would be started.

 Anybody done something like this, or am I just an ambitious dreamer?

 Thanks,
 Mike

2003-09-16 Thread zhu chao
Hi, friends:
We plan to purchase a HDS 9570 storage system with 4Gb Cache/14 Disks to
replace current Sun T3 storage.
Our database is an OLTP system with 80%read/20 write.
But decision has to be made whether HDS 9570 really worth its price and
how much it outperforms sun T3.
Those friends that are running HDS storage , can you share your
experience with using HDS storage for oracle database , how it performs and
what raid level are you running? (HDS claims that raid5 in HDS is as
efficient as raid10).
Thanks

Regards

set correct next time after fixing broken job

2003-09-16 Thread Jeffrey Beckstrom



If I mark a job as broken to prevent its being run and later mark it as 
being unbroken, it appears that by default the "next run date" is set as 
the current date. If I want to have the job rescheduled back to its 
original date/time, is there a way to do that. Let's say the job runs 
daily at 10:00 p.m. If I mark the job as broken and later as unbroken 
without specifying a date, it runs immediately. However, I know that I can 
code a date when I unbreak the job, but how can I do this in sql without 
hardcoding a date. We have several jobs we would sometimes like halted 
during maintenance and would like to avoid having to hardcode a date when 
unbreak them.

RE: Configuring RMAN

You 
have to create the catalog. Check the docs to see how to do this. In

Re: error transporting a tablespace from 8i to 9i?

2003-09-16 Thread Yechiel Adar
It looks like your 8i database is defined with national char set of
WE8ISO8859P1 and your target is defined with AL16UTF16 as national char set.
They have to match if you want to transport tablespace.

 We are trying to transport a tablespace from 8i to 9i. According to
metalink Oracle changed the NCHAR character set to 2 values so we dont have
a match.


 we can do an export/import, but no transportable tablespaces. Any known
work around? Short of destroying all our 8i databases and recreating them to
match the 9i standards(since the 9i ones cant use what is in 8i).

have you considered free or commercial search engines to save you the

Re: archive old data

2003-09-16 Thread Pete Finnigan
Hi Nancy

One way we did it three / four years ago whilst working on a finance
system was to build a second archive database. The main database table
in the production system held details of the financial transactions and
was partitioned into 13 partitions split on months, at each month end
the oldest one was exported off and removed from live and a new
partition was opened for the next month. 

There was a requirement that archived data needed to be available but
didn't need to be online, so we built a second database with just the
finance transactions table with six empty partitions. All of the other
tables in the live system didn't get archived as they were either look-
up tables or small enough that the old data didn't impact the
performance and storage from a users perspective. This helped us as the
archive database then had a set of a few hundred synonyms that were
links to the tables in the live system. 

When archived data was needed by the business it was imported to the
archive partition's and users pointed the application at this database.
The access times were impacted by this method but our remit on providing
archived data on this legacy system was to save costs on disk space and
hardware. We scripted the rollover so it happened automatically at month
end. The solution was not perfect but it worked and saved disc space in
not needing to replicate the whole database and not having to archive
all of the data and allowed recovery of archived data quite quickly. The
production database held 1.5 - 2 terabytes of data by the way mostly in
the financial transactions.

hth

kind regards

Pete

I don't want to do something that is on the bleeding edge, I want to do
something that would be useful to the largest number of people.  

I leave the marketing to Oracle Corp., they know the newer products best it
seems to me.  I am not a concepts person, I don't go by the product
descriptions and features, I go by practical experience. (aka Trial by Fire)

Right now we are still planning / testing a migration to 9iAS 9.0.2. on

If you have any other suggestions, don't hesitate to mention them -- what

Subject:Fwd: Oracle Press OCP exam guide frustrations

All,

I just purchased a Oracle9i Fundamentals I exam guide published by Oracle 
Press and am very disappointed with the quality of the publication.  There 
seems to be quite a few mistakes, misleading sentences and typos (not in 
the Errata) which is very frustrating.

Also, there is a question in the Managing Tablespaces and Datafiles 
chapter that replies on the order of the multiple-choices, however the quiz 
software randomises the choices so the question no longer makes sense - and 
is impossible to answer as presented.

For those that have completed the OCP exam, is this what I am to expect?

Does anyone know of any other resources I might be able to use?  How are 
the OCP exam guides published by Sybex?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Craig.

  You

  In 8.1.7 I think it is simply create catalog. Then you have to

RE: SQLPLUS with cronjob is giving problem

Hopefully, you've read the fine manual and, therefore, know that
.profile, .kshrc and alike are not executed, so you don't have
ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID and alike?

RE: SQLPLUS with cronjob is giving problem

2003-09-16 Thread Mercadante, Thomas F
Sami,

You need to set your Oracle Home inside your shell script before you run
SqlPlus.  Cron runs as a syetm user, not as your local Oracle user - the
user you log in with.

You could simple add   . $HOME/.profile  right before your sqlplus
statement, or set your ORACLE_HOME environmental.  Type ENV at the comand
line to see what the Oracle environmental variables are set to.

Godd Luck!

I encountered this before and it turned out that I had to add the Oracle

already logged in because my environment variables were already set

 Subject:  Fwd: Oracle Press OCP exam guide frustrations
 
 All,
 
 I just purchased a Oracle9i Fundamentals I exam guide published by Oracle 
 Press and am very disappointed with the quality of the publication.  There 
 seems to be quite a few mistakes, misleading sentences and typos (not in 
 the Errata) which is very frustrating.
 
 Also, there is a question in the Managing Tablespaces and Datafiles 
 chapter that replies on the order of the multiple-choices, however the quiz 
 software randomises the choices so the question no longer makes sense - and 
 is impossible to answer as presented.
 
 For those that have completed the OCP exam, is this what I am to expect?
 
 Does anyone know of any other resources I might be able to use?  How are 
 the OCP exam guides published by Sybex?
 
 Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
 Regards,
 Craig.

middle tier centric application

2003-09-16 Thread rgaffuri
Whenever I talk to DB people or read DB articles/books the consensus is to use a 
database centric application. A person who just started recently says he has had alot 
of success with 'caching' in a middle tier using BEA Weblogic and limiting calls to 
the database. 

Does anyone have any experiences with this? He says that the 'beans' also make it 
highly portable. Just started reading Tom Kyte's new book and he says this is a big no 
no. However, I like to keep myself open minded to people with differing ideas and not 
have a total database bias.

You have to create the catalog. Check the docs to see how to do

have to register the databases you want to use this catalog for, etc. 
The docs are quite good.

Fw: pct_direct_access for a secondary index on an iot

2003-09-16 Thread bulbultyagi
Resending , didn't seem to have reached the list the first time.


Hello list, I am unable to get a value in dba_indexes(pct_direct_access) for
 a bitmap index I created on an iot.  I am using Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 enterprise
 edition on windows .
 Can someone help me by telling me what I need to do.
 I have done the following :

 --First create the iot with a mapping table.
 sql create table countries
  ( country_id char(2) ,
  country_name varchar2 (40) ,
  currency_name varchar2(25),
  constraint country_c_id_pk primary key (country_id ) )
  organization index including country_name
  pctthreshold 20
  tablespace users
 overflow tablespace indx
  mapping table;

 Table created.

 SQL insert into HR.countries values ( 'C', 'A', NULL )   ;
 1 row created.

 SQL insert into HR.countries values ( 'D', 'A', NULL ) ;
 1 row created.

 SQL insert into HR.countries values ( 'E', 'A', NULL )   ;
 1 row created.

 SQL COMMIT ;
 Commit complete.


 --Now create a bmp index on it.
 SQL create bitmap index myindex on countries (country_name ) ;
 Index created.

 --This command should analyze the iot and its mapping table.
 SQL analyze table countries compute statistics;
 Table analyzed.

 --Might as well analyze the bmp index ( this does no harm right ? )
 SQL analyze index myindex compute statistics;
 Index analyzed.

 SQL select index_name, pct_direct_access from DBA_indexes where index
 _name = 'MYINDEX' and owner=user;

 INDEX_NAME PCT_DIRECT_ACCESS
 -- -
 MYINDEX

 --As you can see  I get a null value in the pct_dircect_access column.

Nosort parallel dml uses TEMP tablespace

ALTER SESSION ENABLE PARALLEL DML ;

RE: middle tier centric application

2003-09-16 Thread Mladen Gogala
Weblogic is an application server.  Beans are java snippets executed by the
httpd
proces themselves. Beans cannot access/generate HTML. If you wand Java code
do HTML, 
then we are talking servlets. Servlets are executed by separate processes
spawned
by the httpd processes (servlet engine). Servlets and beans can connect to
the database
using JDBC and they can do prefetch. That's as far as it goes. Force that
Java guy to
explain you what is it that he wants to, in English language and using
classic terminology.
If he can not, he doesn't know what he's doing and he's just trying to raise

RE: 'query rewrite' system privg

2003-09-16 Thread Mercadante, Thomas F
My guess is that just because the Mat View is enabled for query rewrite
doesn't mean that it's going to happen.  The Query Rewite attribute on the
Mat View probably indicates that it is eligible for rewrite.

RE: 'query rewrite' system privg

2003-09-16 Thread Mladen Gogala
Nope. It's required to use it, not to create it. By enabling query rewrite,
you
enable the RDBMS to rewrite your query and use it to resolve your select,
even if
the view itself was not mentioned in it. You can always create material view
and do select from it. Material views are snapshots with fancy names.

RE: middle tier centric application

2003-09-16 Thread Goulet, Dick
I'll agree with Tom Kyte to a point.  Caching database rows in the middle tier 
is a bad idea since you have no idea if they've been changed at the database level by 
another non three tier application, read that as SQL*Plus for instance.  To get around 
these problems WebLogic  it's similar variants have to query the database to see if 
the row in cache is the same as the row in the database (column by column)  then 
either process the update requested by the end user or send a incomprehensible error 
message back.  YUCK!!  At a minimum this results is twice the amount of data being 
sent between the middle tier server and the database, how inefficient!!  Now if your 
going to cache an entire panel as PeopleSoft calls them which are composed of 
several rows of data from tables that change infrequently that's not such a bad idea, 
although with some of the fun we've had recently with cached panels becoming corrupt I 
may well change my mind.

BTW, Java Beans are fairly flexible and portable so he's not onto a bad idea.  
But as with any programming language you can easily program yourself into some very 
nasty corners.  One should not use those containers for more than their meant to do 
and caching data is not one of those purposes.

Whenever I talk to DB people or read DB articles/books the consensus is to use a 
database centric application. A person who just started recently says he has had alot 
of success with 'caching' in a middle tier using BEA Weblogic and limiting calls to 
the database. 

Does anyone have any experiences with this? He says that the 'beans' also make it 
highly portable. Just started reading Tom Kyte's new book and he says this is a big no 
no. However, I like to keep myself open minded to people with differing ideas and not 
have a total database bias.

You have to create the catalog.  Check the docs to see how to
do this.  In 8.1.7 I think it is simply create catalog.  Then
you have to register the databases you want to use this
catalog for, etc.  The docs are quite good.

RE: IOUG April 18-22, Toronto

2003-09-16 Thread Karniotis, Stephen
Everyone:

  Speaking as a Focus Area Manager, we are missing the following types of
presentations:

1. Presentations for beginners, i.e.: the basics  - too many of our
presenters concentrate on the intermediate or advanced.  Let me tell you
that we WANT to see more beginner presentations.
2. Troubleshooting type presentations helping users diagnose both
performance and development problems.
3. REAL Advanced presentations and not ones that you think are advanced.
Comments returned over the past few years indicate that the advanced'
presentations are not as advanced as stated.  
4. Tighter quality sessions that offer concrete technical value and ROI for
our audience.

Should be enough

Thank You

I asked my manager if I can go, maybe I can present a paper.

Now I just have to decide what topic to present on.

I don't want to do something that is on the bleeding edge, I want to do
something that would be useful to the largest number of people.  

I leave the marketing to Oracle Corp., they know the newer products best it
seems to me.  I am not a concepts person, I don't go by the product
descriptions and features, I go by practical experience. (aka Trial by Fire)

Right now we are still planning / testing a migration to 9iAS 9.0.2. on
Windows (I know, no comments please), maybe I can do a paper on how to
install, configure, secure, and manage 9iAS effectively.

If you have any other suggestions, don't hesitate to mention them -- what
would be most useful to you at your site?

Do I ever want to go to this conference!

Patrice.

Re: Configuring RMAN

2003-09-16 Thread Tanel Poder
Hi!

cd'ing to a directory doesn't help in unix unless directory . in PATH is
before /usr/bin or whereever the redhat linux rman is located.

Type which rman in your prompt and you'll see which rman is being used.

You have to run $ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman if you want to get right rman. Or
modify your path variable to have $ORACLE_HOME/bin before other linux bin
directories (btw, I wouldn't do that, I believe system bin dirs should
always be first in path)

RE: Configuring RMAN

2003-09-16 Thread Mladen Gogala
Type which rman. If the answer is /usr/X11R6/bin/rman then you're not
dealing
with oracle utility, but the lovely thing described below. There is  also a 
utility called spam, which serves to prepare spam, spam, egg, bacon and
spam.


PolyglotMan(1) PolyglotMan(1)

NAME
   PolyglotMan, rman - reverse compile man pages from format-
   ted form to a number of source formats

SYNOPSIS
   rman [ options ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION
   PolyglotMan  takes man pages from most of the popular fla-
   vors  of  UNIX and transforms them into any of a number of
   text source formats. PolyglotMan  was  formerly  known  as
   RosettaMan.  The name of the binary is still called rman ,
   for scripts that depend on that name;  mnemonically,  just
   think  reverse  man.  Previously  PolyglotMan   required
   pages to be formatted by nroff prior  to  its  processing.
   With  version  3.0, it prefers [tn]roff source and usually
   produces results that are better yet. And source  process-
   ing  is  the  only  way to translate tables. Source format
   translation is not as mature as formatted, however, so try
   formatted translation as a backup.

  You have to create the catalog.  Check the docs to 
 see how to
  do this.  In 8.1.7 I think it is simply create 
 catalog.  Then
  you have to register the databases you want to use this
  catalog for, etc.  The docs are quite good.

RE: Embedded transactions

2003-09-16 Thread Nelson, Allan
Title: Message



Sure 
there is, remove the inner commit and commit them both together. The fact 
that you want to roll back the inner one dependant on the state of completion of 
the outer one indicates that what you have is really one transaction that has 
been mistakenly divided into two.

Re: RE: Embedded transactions

2003-09-16 Thread rgaffuri
if you need to 'rollback' everything, then you should make it one transaction. You can 
add savepoints and rollback to: if you want to limit it that way.

commit means complete. You should not commit unless you are sure you may not want to 
rollback. 

why are you committing in the inner transaction?

RE: Connect to a remote database without a link

2003-09-16 Thread Stephen Lee

Deprecated?  Already?  That sure didn't last long.

As far as what data types, I think it is whatever you can grab with a select
statement.  If you have long datatype, you need to do a 
set long 12345 (or whatever)

other stuff to set are 
set arraysize 100 (or whatever)
set copycommit 1000 (or whatever)

I like the command.  It seems to do a decent job of hauling over sizable
chunks of data.

Re: RAC Parallel Query Issues

2003-09-16 Thread Ravi Kulkarni
Thanks Mogens,

It works great with no parallelism set. 
But when parallelism is set to DEFAULT it fails
(intermittently). The tables are imported from a
Non-Rac production environment.
Found a note on Metalink last night which says DEFAULT
is calculated as : CPU_COUNT*PARALLEL_THREADS_PER_CPU
and DOP is DEFAULT * INSTANCES.
The DOP it was using was 48 (6 cpus*4 thr/cpu*2
instances)
This is the same setting in Production(infact with
more cpus and hence larger DOP) but has been running
fine. I guess the issue is magnified due to slaves
being spawned at the other node and the QC sync'ing
with them. I see huge number 'IPC send completion
sync' events during this time. 
I had to alter degree from 'Default' to 2 for some
tables and disable parallelism to smaller lookup
tables to get it working. These went unnoticed in a
single instance box.
Thanks,
Ravi.

 These files are on a RAID  1 LUN.  Both copies of the file are gone.
Again not corrupted but gone.  I don't know if using duplexing rather than RAID 1 
would have mattered here, but I am changing things so that one group of redo logs is 
on internal disk and written via the duplexing method.

backup problem

2003-09-16 Thread LeRoy Kemnitz
All -

I am implementing RMAN on my unix boxes.  The dbs are already in
archivelog mode for about a year.  The system admin was backing up the
files from cold backups.  Today we realize the backups are no good.  The
tape is unreadable.  Most of the archived logs (.arc) files have been
removed from the system.  Now I have no way to put them back!

How can I set rman to start backing up from today forward?  Hoping to
get a good backup and dependable from rman.

TIA

Session Stat interpretation - total runtime

2003-09-16 Thread Erroba, Ildefonso N
I believe that a number of threads have already discussed how to equate the
total runtime of a given session to its individual stats as shown in
v$sesstat, but I could not find on my collection of threads relating to this
subject.

The stats below shows that the individual session stat is more than the
total runtime. I calculated session stat using the wait events (1268 secs) +
CPU used by this session (182141/100) = 3089 secs, whereas the total runtime
is only 2622 secs (sysdate - logon_time). Could somebody help in accounting
for the discrepancy? Appreciate any input on this.

  The book will be in the O'Reilly warehouses tomorrow (9/17), 
  presumably outbound to stores on the same or next day. I'd expect

RE: Raid Arrays and Power Loss

2003-09-16 Thread Matthew Zito

Okay, core questions:

-as someone asked, what's the make/model of storage?
-has your raid array lost its config?  In other words, is the storage there,
just with an empty vtoc/volume table/partition table (insert your particular
OS nomenclature)
-Is the filesystem good, just empty?  When you say the file is gone, is the
/u1 directory empty, or is the filesystem structure there, just that file is
gone?

Okay, I just saw your message that shows its solaris 8 + veritas.  Here's
what probably happened.  The box was powered on without the RAID array
powered on and consequently veritas doesn't see the disk groups/volumes that
are on the RAID array.  Have you tried doing (as root):

vxconfigd -km enable

This will cause a rescan of the existing volume groups.  Afterwards, what
does a vxprint -hrt look like?

In general, power loss to a RAID array will not produce the results you
describe - I think its far more likely that a system-array interaction is
preventing proper access to your storage.

Thanks,
Matt

 These files are on a RAID  1 LUN.  Both copies of the file

 using duplexing rather than RAID 1 would have mattered here, 
 but I am changing things so that one group of redo logs is on

   You have to create the catalog.  Check the docs to see how to
   do this.  In 8.1.7 I think it is simply create catalog.  Then
   you have to register the databases you want to use this
   catalog for, etc.  The docs are quite good.
