Re: Large Export Problem ......
2) A caveat of using this method: Important: Incremental, cumulative, and complete Exports are obsolete features that will be phased out in a subsequent release I think this has already happened with 9i...

If we may need to recover between full backups, that is the tried and true means. But, on to your question. I'd look at a plan utilizing incremental exports. You start with a 'base' full export (weekly, monthly, whichever), and do daily incremental or cumulative exports. I'm not going to offer too much detail here because I've never actually used this and because you really should read all of the oracle documentation on this before implementing it ... http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/A87860_01/doc/server.817/a76955/toc. htm Two things I'll point out from that document: 1) A quote which directly addresses one of your issues... You can do incremental, cumulative, and complete exports only in full database mode (FULL=Y). 2) A caveat of using this method: Important: Incremental, cumulative, and complete Exports are obsolete features that will be phased out in a subsequent release Please let us know how this turns out for you or if additional help is needed. Thanks, Darrell [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/25/03 01:59PM Dear List, I have a large unarchived decission support database of size 270gig. We do take coldbackup of database files every sunday. We also take export backup to suplement the coldbackup. Export is taking too much time which we can't afford now. I need to reduce the export time to fit the weekend schedule. In the last few weeks it is failing as the database is down for coldbackups while the export is running. The database structure is as follows: Partitioned tables size: 200gig [static partitions(prior years) size 150 gig, and non-static partitions(current yr) size 50gig] non-partitioned tables: 70gig I don't need to export static partitions every week. Once in 3/6months is OK. I don't think I can eliminate static partitions in one full export script/parameter file. Iam thinking of eliminating the static partitions by taking export in TABLE mode, which includes only NON-STATIC partitions and the remaining NON-PARTITION tables. I may have to hardcode the table names. The database has lots of packages/stored procs which will be stored in the dictionary I believe. My questions are: [1] How can I reconstruct a database using this type of export if needed? [2] How can I simulate full export in this type (Table Mode) of export? [3] How can I export packages/stored procs and import to new DB if necessary? [4] Is there any other way to export the full database and eliminate the static partitions in a single step? [5] What is the best way to solve my export problem?? Any ideas are appreciated.

For the Ora-2020 - either increase the distributed_transactions parameter or
use dbms_sql instead of execute immediate where you can explicitly close the

RE: performance issues on sun
My bad. I should also have posted the 10046 trace. I did a 10046 trace and also a STATSPACK report. Of the total time, more than 50% of the time is spent waiting on DIRECT PATH WRITE and around 40% of the time it waits on DIRECT PATH READ. This is what prompted me to do a truss and see what it is doing.. From one of the Veritas whitepapers - I found this Quick I/O allows databases to access regular files on a VxFS file system as raw character devices, improving throughput for Oracle databases. Unlike raw devices, Quick I/O files can still be managed as regular UNIX files. There are three requirements to use Quick I/O: 1. Quick I/O driver (VRTSqio) must be loaded before a regular file can be accessed through the Quick I/O interface. 2. Files must be preallocated on a VxFS file system. The file must be preallocated because the file cannot be extended through writes via its Quick I/O interface. This preallocation can be done using the qiomkfile command. This command ensures that the file is created as a single large extent, or as a chain of direct extents. Using direct extents is inherently faster than using indirect extents. 3. The file must be accessed via its Quick I/O name extension (::cdev:vxfs:). In a VxFS file system, a file can be accessed using two types of interface: regular file and device file. The device file interface allows a regular file to be accessed as a raw character device. This is achieved by using the Quick I/O naming extension of ::cdev:vxfs: while accessing a regular file. For example, a file named system.dbf can be accessed as a raw character device when the name system.dbf::cdev:vxfs: is used for database access. Converting Oracle Database Files on VERITAS File System to use Quick/IO The scripts getdbfiles.sh and mkqio.sh are provided to easily change Oracle database files to use Quick I/O. The database files must be on VxFS file systems before they can be converted. The getdbfiles.sh script is a shell script that can be run by the Oracle DBA (with appropriate user ID) while the database instance is up and running. This script extracts the filenames from the system tables of the database and stores the filenames in a file called mkqio.dat. Alternatively, you can manually create the mkqio.dat file containing the Oracle database filenames to convert for use with Quick I/O. The mkqio.sh script processes a list of filenames in the file mkqio.dat and converts them to use Quick I/O. This conversion process should be performed while the database is closed. The mkqio.sh script must also be run by the Oracle user of the database instance to avoid any permission problems. I think Quick IO is needed on VxFS to perform KAIO calls. Have anyone done this before? Any input is greatly appreciated.

I should also have posted the 10046 trace. I did a 10046 trace and also a STATSPACK report. Of the total time, more than 50% of the time is spent waiting on DIRECT PATH WRITE and around 40% of the time it waits on DIRECT PATH READ. This is what prompted me to do a truss and see what it is doing.. From one of the Veritas whitepapers - I found this Quick I/O allows databases to access regular files on a VxFS file system as raw character devices, improving throughput for Oracle databases. Unlike raw devices, Quick I/O files can still be managed as regular UNIX files. There are three requirements to use Quick I/O: 1. Quick I/O driver (VRTSqio) must be loaded before a regular file can be accessed through the Quick I/O interface. 2. Files must be preallocated on a VxFS file system. The file must be preallocated because the file cannot be extended through writes via its Quick I/O interface. This preallocation can be done using the qiomkfile command. This command ensures that the file is created as a single large extent, or as a chain of direct extents. Using direct extents is inherently faster than using indirect extents. 3. The file must be accessed via its Quick I/O name extension (::cdev:vxfs:). In a VxFS file system, a file can be accessed using two types of interface: regular file and device file. The device file interface allows a regular file to be accessed as a raw character device. This is achieved by using the Quick I/O naming extension of ::cdev:vxfs: while accessing a regular file. For example, a file named system.dbf can be accessed as a raw character device when the name

Re: File Table Overflow on Oracle DB Server
Here is Kirti's reply to it (long time back in June). I think it was to you that time also... Babu Vivek, You are right, this is an OS related issue, but a DBA must be aware of why it happens ;) Error 23 means 'File Table Overflow' and it is generated when the system wide limit for the number of simultaneously open files is exceeded. It is controlled by a kernel parameter 'nfile'. which defaults to a value arrived at by a formula that uses 'maxusers' (and a couple of other) kernel parameters. You can check the values set for 'maxusers' and 'nfile' on these servers, and get your SA to increase those on the server where you had a problem starting the database. Use '/usr/sbin/kmtune -q ' command to check currently set value for 'nfile' and 'maxusers'. Read more about 'nfile' at http://docs.hp.com/hpux/onlinedocs/os/KCparam.Nfile.html.

Different filesystems and mount points does not necessarily mean much in these days where a single storage array may be shared among multiple servers.

a
general overview of books that delve into the depth of unix internals.
Anyway, here is my favorite on Unix internals (hence, the name of the book

The problem that I had was that spcusr was creating some x_ views that already existed in the database (perhaps from Steve Adams' script). When the spcusr script encounters the errors, it quits and does not proceed with the remainder of the creation. I had to modify the script and take out all the references to the x_ views (or delete them, I don't remember which) in order to get a clean install. You should have the equivalent of an spdrop. If so you can run it and start over, but this will not remove the x_ views and synonyms. (Also make sure you're not using svrmgrl. statspack does not like svrmgrl) Good luck!

What is the significance of parameter OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ ?
When I tried to change the value the explain plan has changed .
alter session set OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ = 10
table access for Z was by index rowid
alter session set OPTIMIZER_INDEX_COST_ADJ = 100
table access for Z was full
How can I make effective use of this parameter .
If i dont want to use this in alter session,can this value be
set elsewhere.
what is the difference between setting this parameter to some other value
than
default
compared to using hints in sql stmt.
I've tried some hints like rowid,index but it did not work for the join
stmt
as it still used the FTS of Z before I tried to change the above parameter

10.

Re: Centralized StatsPack Repository
Title: RE: Centralized StatsPack Repository Raj I did this sometime back but later on somehow this went on to the backburner.. (I also had half-developed XL based interface to the central statspack data) In the central repository create the set of tables that statspack uses to store data under user "central". Create individual schema's with different instance names (that you want monitored). Under each of the schemas 1) create a db link with a dba user to the database that this schema monitors 2) create private synonyms for all of the v$, dba* views that statspack queries usingdb links created above (create synonym v$session for sys.v$session@target_db) 3) create private synonyms for all of the statspack tables to point to the "central" schema Now when you schedule statspack.snap it will read from the target db and insert data into the "central" user...

Specifically, collect information on the top wait events. I'm not familiar with Toad, but perhaps it can provide these. My personal favorite is STATSPACK, which comes with Oracle, but you'll have to install it. Or you can just directly query the V$ views. If the wait statistics confirm the need to increase these buffers, once you make the change you can measure these statistics again and confirm that you are making a positive improvement. Also, does your signature have some sort of foreign language font? When I opened your email I got an error message about that. Dennis Williams DBA, 40%OCP Lifetouch, Inc.

Re: Common PL/SQL package to truncate tables
Title: Common PL/SQL package to truncate tables
Of the top of my head,
there is a way where you can run a procedure under the invoker's rights rather
than the procedure owner's rights. if u create it that way, you need not bother
checking if the user who is calling the procedure has the rights to truncate the
table - oracle will do it for you

Subject: Common PL/SQL package to
truncate tables
We have a DSS database containing numerous
datamarts, each stored in it's own schema. Each datamart schema has a corresponding OPS$ batch account, which does
the ETL work. DML privs
on all tables within a schema are granted to a {schema}_LOAD_ROLE,
which in turn is granted to the
pertinent batch account.
Previously, each schema has it's own copy
of a common utilty package, which provided among other things, a routine to truncate a specified
table. The batch account would call this routine to perform all truncates. As the number
of datamarts grew it started becoming a pain to maintain and compile the same package in multiple
schemas.
So, the idea is to use a
database-wide common utility package which would be compiled under a DBA ID, with execute granted to the OPS$
batch accounts. This package's truncate routine would verify a truncate request by checking
the calling USER against DBA_ROLE_PRIVS to ensure it had the requisite {schema}_LOAD_ROLE for the
{schema}.table_name passed as a
parameter.
Any security holes or caveats with this
idea? Or maybe a more elegant way to accomplish this?
Thanks.

Re: Strange performance problem
I have seen something like this in the past and it was because there were two tables - named the same in two different schemas (public synonym, private synonym and all that mess).. Do you know whether this could be the same case as yours? Also check to see if the explain plan differs when u run it under different schemas. Babu - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 30, 2002 1:33 PM I got a call from a customer earlier. He said that he was trying to run a query and it was taking way too long. He ran the same query last Friday and it came back in seconds. I looked at it in OEM and noticed that two of the tables were being accessed by full table scans. These tables have 22,000+ and 24,000+ rows each. I took the sql from OEM and ran it in a svrmgrl session (connected internal), and it came back in seconds. His still hadn't come back. To further complicate things, I connected as the owner of the tables (the same user he was using) and ran the query again. This time, I ended up killing it after 10 minutes. I'm confused as to what can cause such a difference in performance from sys to another user. The server did crash sometime over the weekend. He said that it was fine before the crash.

SAN
All I have a meeting tomorrow where I am going to point out why SAN and Oracle does not go very well together. Here are my thoughts. Can you pick holes in this argument, modify it or suggest any changes TIA Babu SAN and Oracle ? Conflicting IO behavior * There are four types of IO in Oracle 1.Random Reads (RR) ? DBWR - Using indexes 2.Sequential Reads (SR) ? DBWR - Full table scans 3.Random Writes (RW) ? DBWR ? Writing dirty blocks 4.Sequential Writes (SW) ? LGWR, Arch ? Writing redo logs and Redo Archival + Control files * Bulk of any Oracle database's IO is done in RR, SR and RW. If SW is very high it denotes configuration problems. * SAN (or for that matter any RAID device) is configured for writing or reading large chunks at a time. The stripe size on most SANs and RAID devices are 256K or more. Compare this to the Oracle block size of 4k/8k in most databases (going upto 32K in datawarehouses) * SANs do *Read Ahead*. If one block is requested, they read more than one blocks *while at the disk* hoping that the same process will request the other blocks some time soon. Here is the conflict. * When ever Oracle does a RR, SR or RW it writes randomly and not sequentially. It will read/write a particular block at a time in case of RR and RW and 'x' blocks (where x = dbfile_multi_block_read_count) in case of SR. Therefore only during SR will Oracle use the entire stripe width. In all other cases, The difference in the stripe width and db_block_size will be excess IO. * Why *read ahead* will cause a conflict : * The internal structure of a datafile could be as follows. The file consists of 10 blocks. These are occupied by 3 tables. The blocks shown below are numbered using table_name.block_number |-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-| | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1.1 | 1.2 | 2.1 | 3.1 | 3.2 | 3.3 | 2.2 | 1.3 | 2.3 | | 3.4 | | | | | | | | | | | | | |-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-| * The first block on the datafile is the first block of table 1, second block is the second block of table 1, the third block is the first block of table 2 and so on.. (For simplicity sake, I am assuming Oracle will allocate space in blocks and not in extents) * Now assume Oracle requests the first block of table 1. Assume read ahead is set to three blocks (three blocks will be read instead of 2 blocks). In this case the SAN will read 2.1, 3.1,3.2. * The blocks 3.1 and 3.2 will be entirely useless as Oracle is never going to read it. SAN cannot tell that the block 2.2 that Oracle might possible request next is the 7th block in the datafile and so it can never *read ahead* intelligently. Why the buffer of SAN has very little impact w.r.t Oracle read performance? * Oracle has its own buffering for all IO types * DBWR reads and writes uses the DB Buffer Cache * LGWR uses the Log buffer * Db buffer Cache is managed by a LRU Algorithm (Touchcount from 9I). * Bulk of the IO done by Oracle is Logical IO (LIO) and not Physical IO (PIO). * Assume the buffer cache hit ratio is 80%. This means that only 20% of the IO calls are PIO. Only 20% of the calls ever hit the SAN's cache. Since this 20% is probably the least requested/never requested data (going by Oracle's LRU algorithm) , its quite likely that the SAN's buffers don't have this either. * Given that Oracle is going to cache even this 20% in its buffers, the next PIO call is going to be for something totally different ? which is not there in the SAN's buffer. * Couple this with the read-ahead (discussed earlier), Our SAN's buffer is now populated with lots of data that Oracle might never use a PIO to retrieve. * Thus the SAN's buffer can never really provide to Oracle the data it reads most ? Its already there in Oracle. To be fair, SAN's huge buffers will come as a boon to small databases ? where the entire database can be cached in the SAN's buffers. -- 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: Space Contention and LOG_BUFFER size
More than the number of time you are waiting for 'redo log space requests' its more important to find out how long you are waiting for that. 27 times out of a million might not be a big deal for you to tune. having said that, here is a posting by Steve Adams on this topic Q : Every day our production database has more than 10 redo log space requests. Oracle suggested that this number should be near 0. I resized the log files, and increased the log buffer to 1M. What else can I do? A : This idea of increasing the log_buffer to get space requests down to 0 is both ineffective and bad for performance. There is always a risk of space requests at log switches and a few other points when redo generation is disabled entirely. It does not matter how big your log buffer is then. You will get space request waits if you try to generate redo at that time. Also, a large log buffer is actually much worse for performance than the occasional space request, even if that is a genuine log buffer space wait. hth babu Farnsworth, Dave [EMAIL PROTECTED]@fatcity.com on 07/30/2002 12:19:02 PM Please respond to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To:Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: I am doing some performance monitoring on an 8.1.7 DB on Windoze.

oratab file
All On one of the database servers we have, the oratab file has been changed to include a :parameter after each entry and that parameter is used to determine whether the database is supposed to be shutdown at a certain time. It kind of struck me as a odd way to do this... This created problems for me when I was trying to get OEM discover this database and I had to remove this parameter to get OEM discover the database. So the question is : Have you seen this some where else? Is this (editing of oratab)supported? PS : This is not my database. I had to look into it for some other reason and I discovered this.

Re: PX Deq: Table Q qref
All I have some more information on this. I turned on event 10046 on this. From this I was able to note the following... 1. I start the sql script and spool the results 2. It waits for less than a second on process startup and PX Deq: Join ACK. I think these are waits for starting up the parallel query slaves and then they acknowledging the startup. 3. Then it starts waiting on PX Deq Credit: need buffer and PX Deq Credit: send blkd. I think these are when PQ actually returns data to the QC 4. Then it starts witing on PX Deq: Execute Reply. I see numerous waits on this. I am not sure on what this wait means. 5.After two hours, it starts waiting on PX Deq: Table Q qref and SQL*Net message to client. By this time, it has finished writing to the spool file. I verified this from the unix timestamp. The trace also shows FETCH #1:c=0,e=0,p=0,cr=0,cu=0,mis=0,r=15,dep=0,og=4,tim=57419669 6. After about 3-4 hours later the SQL prompt returns to me. During this time it has not written to the spool file. So I am not sure what is being done in this time... What is it doing during the Step5 desciribed above? Also why does it show Fetch when I have already gotten the data.. Can any of you pl comment on the above... Am I missing anything or am I interpreting it wrong... Thanks a lot Babu - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 4:03 AM Not entirely sure, but I think this is a query slave trying to make, or break a link from another layer in the DFO. As the query gets to completion, I would expect to see the QC gathering results, and the slaves either in: PX Deq Send Blkd (i.e. more data to send but another slave is currently passing data to the QC) or PX Deq Execution message (roughly, this is from memory) which means all its data has been transmitted and it is waiting for a message from the QC to tell it to die.

I created a procedure to remove up to 2.4 million records out of a 13+
million record table with bulk binds and forall. Figured that would be the
fastest way. While doing this delete, other processes were accessing the
table, but not the rows that were being deleted. Things went fine.
Eventually, records that were being deleted were being updated, then the
probelms started. The job that did the big delete was killed in favor of
deleteing the records in smaller batches. However, whenever I try to delete
or update some of the records that were affected, the process hangs, like
it's waiting on a commit or rollback from a previous transaction. I have
bounced the db and this is still occuring.
Is there a way to check if the blocks are indeed waiting for a commit or
rollback and provide that as needed?
Thank you

Re: not using indexes
are all your tables/indexes analyzed? if the statistics are not current then the plans chosen by the CBO can be very bad. babu - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 12:40 AM Dear All, I have been entrusted to tune a web based application.

There was a remarkable increase in performance. Can any one tell me why we have to specify the hints in the queries, when the tables are having index already. Platform: WinNT Oracle 8.1.6.

Re: Moving Oracle software
i dont think you need a relink all. the path is always taken from your env variables so it does not need a relink... may be on some patch levels you might need a relink. try it w/o relinking and it it works its fine i have tried it w/o relinking and it works fine... babu - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2002 2:51 PM If I copy the oracle software directories from one machine to another, should I run relink allbefore using them? This is an 8.1.6.3 implementation running under Solaris 2.7. The directory names are different on the new box (i.e. ORACLE_BASE is not the same), and the O/S patch level is off a little. As a test, I moved the oracle software from one directory to another (on the same machine), and the database came up fine. I ran relink all just to get familiar with it; it seems to have worked fine, but it produces a lot of messages and it's hard to decide whether they can all be ignored or not.
