RE: Who is Melanie Craft?
Apparently to celebrate his new marriage, Larry is releasing the new Oracle 10G Marriage Builder product, it requires plenty of tuning and costs an absolute fortune.

Re: ora-1555 under automatic undo management (resend ?)
I'm having an ora-1555 under Oracle9 database and not sure what I can do to get rid of it. I had some recollecions from Oracle8 days , but the things like adding a new rollback segment or shrinking the segments I don't think are applicable under the auto undo management. Besides separating the long queries from batch programs, is ther anything that I can do here? Hi Gene, Increase UNDO_RETENTION (which determines how long Oracle will attempt to keep your undo before being overwritten) and/or increase the size of your undo tablespace (to ensure Oracle will succeed in meeting your undo_retention target). Check out V%UNDOSTAT to see how it's going.

Re: powerbuilder in rbo and multiple constraint question...
Chris, I've worked on a large Powerbuilder App for a number of years. We used CBO all the time under 7.3.2, 7.3.4 and 8.1.7. You're right Powerbuilder per se requiring RBO is rubbish. Cheers, Chris Dunscombe Quoting Chris Stephens [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I'm working with a 3rd party vendor to resolve some performance issues with there call center app. The app is written in PowerBuilder. When I traced the offending sessions, I noticed the queries are being run under the rbo. When I run those same queries under the cbo the response time is dramatically different. I asked why they insisted on running under the rbo. There response was that it's a limitation of powerbuilder. I don't buy that for a second. ...anyone know for sure? ..and on a side note...my company is developing a call center app in .not. The dba's were conveniently left out of the design process. I just took a look at the schema they are using and noticed redundant constraints on almost every table. i.e. not null, primary key, unique on the same column. Before I investigate myself with a 10046, does anyone know if oracle has to do multiple recursive sql to validate each constraint or is it smart enough to know they are redundant and only validate the pk constraint? .when I saw this, I blasted the developers (admittedly some misdirected aggression) for not having a clue what they were working with and blankly stated that the redundant constraints (among other things if found...no bind variables for one) would negatively affect performance. ..after possibly putting my foot in my mouth I'm looking to validate what I said. ...if I don't get any responses to this, I'll run the trace myself and post my findings. oh yeah...the .not developers responded by saying the redundant constraints wouldn't be a problem in sql server. ...something I'm almost positive they haven't validated either.

RE: SQL server and JOB
Firstly Arslan, it should probably be pointed out that this is an Oracle list, not SQLServer. But, seeing as I deal with both database types, I'll have a stab at this.. You can create jobs under the SQLServer Agent. If you open up SQLServer's Enterprise Manager, and navigate to your Server, there is a directory tree there called Management, and under that will be SQL Server Agent, which manages three things - Alerts, Operators and Jobs.. If you highlight Jobs, then right mouse button click on the (probably) empty window on the right, you'll get a menu option to insert a New Job HTH Mark === Mark Leith | T: +44 (0)1905 330 281 Sales Marketing | F: +44 (0)870 127 5283 Cool Tools UK Ltd | E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] === http://www.cool-tools.co.uk Maximising throughput performance -Original Message- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 16 January 2004 12:59 To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi , How can i create a job in sql server ?

RE: What is Hash Join?
Thanks a lot for the information Kevin :), that's quite a light to me. So... Is it best to try to get hash join on execution plan at all time? Regards, Wendry. -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2004 9:09 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In my experience, Hash Joins have proven OUTSTANDING for joining two very large tables -- much faster than any other strategy. I copied the following from AskTom.oracle.com. It answers the question What is the difference between a Sort Merge and a Hash Join. From AskTom.Oracle.com: Well, a sort merge of A and B is sort of like this: read A and sort by join key to temp_a read B and sort by join key to temp_b read a record from temp_a read a record from temp_b while NOT eof on temp_a and temp_b loop if ( temp_a.key = temp_b.key ) then output joined record elsif ( temp_a.key = temp_b.key ) read a record from temp_a elsif ( temp_a.key = temp_b.key ) read a record from temp_b ) end loop (its more complex then that, the above logic assumed the join key was unique -- we really need to join every match in temp_a to every match in temp_b but you get the picture) The hash join is conceptually like: create a hash table on one of A or B (say A) on the join key creating temp_a. while NOT eof on B read a record in b hash the join key and look up into temp_a by that hash key for matching records output the matches end loop So, a hash join can sometimes be much more efficient (one hash, not two sorts) Hash joins are used any time a sort merge might be used in most cases.

RE: List problems (duplicate?)
For the record, I've been having the same problem at two email addresses. Iguess one question is whether it is consistently the same email that no onegets. If it's my mail gateway seeing it as spam, will everyone see it as spam?For example I got Dan's "Partioning question (duplicate?)" email from lateyesterday afternoon, but I never got the original post (even though I see it onthe fatcity.com website). Obviously Dan never got the original post either. Didanyone? This might help to narrow down the source of the problem.

I'm not seeing a lot of volume nor anything I've sent recently. Funny you should ask.If you go to fatcity.com you will see that all email is arriving there unmolested. Several emails I sent did not appear in my inbox at 2 different addresses, yet they are on the server at fatcity.com. The most likely problem is that something is happening to them after they leave fatcity. The question is what. fatcity is on an ISP (RoadRunner ) that happens to allow dynamic IP addresses, a favorite tactic of spammers. RoadRunner therefore frequently is seen on blacklists, though fatcity is not responsible for any of the spam.That's one possibility. There are others. * your mail gateway is intercepting it as spam * your company's spam filter is deleting it. * ... ? Fatcity ( aka Bruce Bergman ) provides this service to oracle-l free. As such, there's a limit to how much time he can spend on this. Bruce has become an IS director and finds that his time is rather limited.

Fwd: UTL_FILE_DIR on 9iR2
Ah! - got it. To simplify my question I hadn't mentioned that I had more than one allowed directory, and this was where the problem lay: I did: ALTER SYSTEM SET UTL_FILE_DIR = 'directory1, directory2' SCOPE=spfile; Whereas what is required is: ALTER SYSTEM SET UTL_FILE_DIR = 'directory1','directory2' SCOPE=spfile; The first form is accepted by Oracle and looks ok in v$parameter but clearly doesn't do the same thing underneath! Good: this means I can delay implementing DIRECTORYs for a bit longer... (not that I don't want to use them, just that other things have priority) - Bill Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2004 11:15:35 + To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Bill Buchan [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: UTL_FILE_DIR on 9iR2 Hi all, I'm looking for some clarification on UTL_FILE_DIR on 9.2. I understand that this parameter is obsolete (Metalink Note 196939.1) and that CREATE DIRECTORY should be used instead. However we wanted to persist with the old method since we already have lots of existing PL/SQL that uses a look up table to decide where to read/write files; yes we'd move to CREATE DIRECTORY eventually but not right now. I thought that although UTL_FILE_DIR was obsolete it was really just deprecated and we could continue using it as before. If UTL_FILE_DIR = '*' then all is indeed well. However if I try to restrict the directories, i.e. UTL_FILE_DIR = '/only/allowed/here' then it does not work (yes, checked filesystem privs). ERROR at line 1: ORA-29280: invalid directory path ORA-06512: at SYS.UTL_FILE, line 18 ORA-06512: at SYS.UTL_FILE, line 424 ORA-06512: at line 4 I can sort of fudge it to work: SQL create directory /only/allowed/here as '/only/allowed/here'; Directory created. SQL grant read on directory /only/allowed/here to public; Grant succeeded. It's annoying to have to create directories with quoted names the same as the paths. Have I missed something or am I just going to have to use CREATE DIRECTORY like this until we have an opportunity to change the PL/SQL?

Re: What is Hash Join?
Hi! Note that hash joins are very prone to extreme performance degradation when statistics outdated (don't reflect real rowcounts/sizes in tables). When optimizer decides to go with hash join because it thinks that there is 1000 rows in driving table, but there is 100 instead, all driving table hash buckets (called build partitions) won't fit into hash area and they will spill over to disk causing a multipass operation which hit temp tablespace heavily. So, with big tables, plan hash joins carefully and keep your stats up-to-date (up-to-reality).

ORA-904 after table rename
We're developing some schema update scripts for an in-house application, which includes renaming an existing table, and creating a new version using the original name. No problem... or so I thought. :( All seems well under OEM and SQL+, but I have a developer who consistently gets an ORA-904 error (invalid column name) when trying to access the new table under TOAD.

Re: Connection Problem
I don't believe a 12154 error has anything to do with the listener. The request never leaves the client. It has all to do with the fact that sqlnet on the client can not find the service name in the tnsnames.ora. What is names.default.domain set to in sqlnet.ora. If there is no sqlnet.ora try appending .world to the servicenames in the tnsnames.ora (e.f. LIVE.WORLD = .)

Re: how to hide oracle password from a unix ps -ef | grep?
Sure. Create the database userid so that it is authenticated externally (Identfied externally). Then the userid can log in via SQL*Plus using a / instead of a userid or password. The OS userid should be a controlled account so that everyone and his grandmother cannot log into it. If it is a matter of encryption, turn on encryption by adding the encryption login parameter to the sqlnet.ora file. RWB Reginald W.

RE: Anyone using IBM's Flashcopy for hotbacks?
Rich, As I had indicated in a previous post on a similar topic, you will need to minimize writes to the SAN during a mirror split during FlashCopy (in IBM, BCV in EMC and ShadowImage in Hitachi). In my limited understanding, once the command to split is received by the SAN, it has to make sure that the write cache is *completely* written to disk. Taking on Tim G's excellent analogy of likening a SAN disk cache to a water tank with an inlet at one end and an outlet on the other, and the requirement of all writes to be written to disk during split, it becomes evident that the SAN has to very quickly bleed off the write cache as well as freeze or somehow delay writes during this time. An ALTER SYSTEM SUSPEND might help during the split. I have seen a 'runaway' Hash join very quickly fill up TEMP using direct writes and considerably delay splits. I really don't see any *read* related problems though at the time of split... YMMV!

We'd also need to dump the copy to tape, then startup this copy as another instance, so the Tivoli plugin to have RMAN manage this probably wouldn't be worth the money for us. So, has anyone done this? Which FlashCopy options did you use? Any major gotchas to not do this? Does the Flash cause I/O problems during the backup due to the block reads from the original DB?

Re: DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT
Yes. As long as your KEY_STRING is same, the encrypted value will be the same. Consider: SQL exec :i := rawtohex(utl_raw.cast_to_raw (dbms_obfuscation_toolkit.DES3Encrypt (input_string='12345678', key_string='123456789012345678901234'))) PL/SQL procedure successfully completed. SQL print i I--FB90F134036ABD29 Do it again. SQL exec :i := rawtohex(utl_raw.cast_to_raw (dbms_obfuscation_toolkit.DES3Encrypt (input_string='12345678', key_string='123456789012345678901234'))) PL/SQL procedure successfully completed. SQL print i IFB90F134036ABD29 The encrypted version is the same. This also brings up another good point - the key plays a vital role in the encryption process and should be as randomized as possible. In Oracle 9i you have the DESGetKey function. The other question is why do you want to do this? Perhaps you are trying to build a integrity assurance system that calculates an encrypted value before delivery, and then after delivery to confirm that data has not been tampered with in transit. If so, I would receommend using a hash, not encryption, i.e. MD5 procedure in the same package. It's less taxing on resources and does exactly what you want to do. Key management becomes easier in hashing, too. Hope this helps.

Workspace Manager Questions
Hello, I have some Workspace Manager Questions and I'm interested in general opinions/feelings about it. A little bit of background first: Our database is about 450GB, and we maintain a separate production and development instance. Multiple projects share the same instance, and the same tables, but they have different and overlapping data build and release cycles. When we migrate, we clone the database by putting it in online backup mode, copy the datafiles, and then restore as a new (production) instance. Obviously we're currently only in a position to release/migrate at the lowest common denominator, which creates downtime for the projects with significantly faster build cycles. We run 9iR2 on SuSE Enterprise. I'm interested in introducing Oracle's Workspace Manager in hopes of allowing migrations to occur while some projects are still in mid-build, and I'm curious about some of the following issues: 1) Reliability using Workspace Manager -- Each workspace has the potential to be up to 100 GB large and span several hundred tables. 2) Impact of conducting a migration while a workspace is open. -- I assume it wouldn't be a problem-- just extra data to copy, and a little bit of clean up time afterwards in production clearing out the open workspaces? 3) Feasibility of merging a workspace of this size back into the database -- Fortunately I don't foresee there to be significant conflicts during the merger 4) Best I can tell, the use of Workspace Manager wouldn't require any significant code changes. Is this correct? Any other Gotchas or things I should know about Workspace Manager? Any other opinions or approaches to solving this problem? We're also exploring the possibility of just giving each project its own instance, but there are significant shared data and projects which rely on the data as whole. (And yes, we have explored database links as a solution to this last point). Thanks much in advance for the insight wisdom. --Mike -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Michael Saffitz 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: Anyone using IBM's Flashcopy for hotbacks?
We have been using Hitachi and EMC SANs.
The procedure is
1. Issue BEGIN BACKUP commands for *ALL* the Tablespaces
2. Use the SAN's commands to split the ShadowImage or FlashCopy for
the DataFiles FileSystems
3. Issue END BACKUP commands
4. Issue an ARCHIVELOG CURRENT command [and we also BACKUP CONTROLFILE to
the ArchiveLog FileSystem]
5. split the ArchiveLog FileSystem
6. Backup the split images of the DataFiles and ArchiveLogs
-- Here I believe that it depends on whether use a SnapShot or SnapClone.
If you use a SnapClone [ie an exact duplicate of the data is made available,
also called ShadowImage or BCV], you'd have to wait till you backup this
complete SnapClone before you proceed to the next step.
If you use a SnapShot [ie the storage retains metadata information and maps
all changed blocks], you can drop the SnapShot after completing the backup.
6. ReSync/Resilver the image.
The active database is continuously available. The ALTER SYSTEM SUSPEND
command in Oracle will actually freeze all I/O.
Check with IBM about how I/O to disk is completed when you split the images.
The Storage must guarantee that all I/O has been completed against the
SnapClone
image before the command returns to your script which then issues END
BACKUP commands.
The Storage provider should be providing templates of the command scripts
where you can plug-in your Oracle ALTER ... commands.
