Date conversion
Hi all One of the developers came to me. They are using a Genesys call logging system. It has apparently stored a date time in a number field as the number of seconds since 1970 1 Jan 0:00 They need to know exactly what time this is. I can not off hand remember that oracle got a conversion routine for this. Anyone know of one, they prefer something already there compared to something that I write. I was thinking figure out how many days the seconds represent, add this to the date of 1 Jan 1970. then figure out what time of day the remainder seconds are to determine the time of day ? Ideas.

I take STATSPACK snapshots every 15 minutes and if there's a performance problem caused by a few bad queries I can usually isolate the offenders. But constant fined-grained STATSPACK snapshots can be a lot of overhead so you may want something more lightweight. I've developed a DBA web app which queries V$SYSSTAT and V$SYSTEM_EVENT every minute. I assume regular queries on these tables do not impact system performance enough to worry about. I record the result sets from these queries outside of Oracle in a very light weight RRDTool "round robin database." (RRDTool is free, http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/.) >From this I can produce 55 graphs on demand for 5 different time spans: daily; weekly; monthly; quarterly; and yearly. Of course damagement loves graphs/pictures. The storage needed for one plus year's worth of minute to minute V$SYSSTAT/V$SYSTEM_EVENT query data only comes to 3.2MB for each database instance being monitored. A cool thing to do is produce a graph with a visually obvious spike in some V$SYSTEM_EVENT wait statistic at say 3:15PM yesterday then correlate that graphic spike to a specific problem query as recorded in STATSPACK. It provides nice "smoking gun" incriminating evidence to be used for putting duhvelopers on trial.

On one database, the users have identified a certain process that has marginal performance at best, and when anything gets out of whack it gets bad real fast. So the developers have added a logging feature in the application. When the user hits "submit", that is logged, along with the username and other relevant data. When the results are returned to the user, that is also logged. Now we have a measurement from the user's perspective. This has allowed us to detect problems a number of times before they were serious. When the users have complained about intolerable performance it has given us some actual numbers to review (rather than opinions or impressions). I think you have a good idea, but if possible you should go end-to-end, rather than just the database. I would go with STATSPACK snapshots if you just want to look at the server. That gives you an overall server status, while a single query may not detect a lot of severe problems. Dennis Williams DBA, 40%OCP Lifetouch, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 11:54 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L All, I would like to track the performance of my production databases by running the same SQL statement against each database every 5 minutes or so and recording the results. For example: sql> set timing on; sql> select count(*) from dba_tables; That was I would know if they are getting faster or slower over time. As anyone already done this? Would there be a good SQL statement to use? Thanks, Tom Terrian

The Sys. Admin. team wants to consolidate storage (and probably get a new toy too) on all of our servers, so they are evaluating a SAN (LSI Logic E4600). The DBA team is doing some research to determine the pros and cons of doing this, and I'd like to hear any of your experiences (good and bad) using SAN with Oracle. My understanding is that all of our database servers would remain intact, but the attached disk storage would move into the SAN. So, we still have the Production, Test, and App. servers with their processors and memory, Oracle homes, etc. The SAN will hold database files from Production, Test, Apps., staging, ODS,data warehouse, etc. Their arguments: -the SAN is very scalable (500 GB - 40 TB) -easy to manage disks in one central location -fancy statistics collection on all SAN disks -much higher throughput on the fiber SAN connections than with locally attached disk arrays -capable of using mixed RAID levels (0, 1, 1+0, 5, etc.) -can partition sets of disks in the SAN for specific server access -Snapshot backup capability is very fast in the SAN (much faster than traditional Oracle backups) DBA arguments: -How will this affect database performance? -What are the drawbacks, if any, with the pre-fetch of data performed by the SAN (i.e., SAN cache) -How tunable is the SAN -Fast, small disks are better for performance and less wasted space than the typical huge disks in a SAN (it's possible to use smaller disks in the SAN) -Prove it! After reading the "Sane SAN" article and a case study about Volvo implementing a SAN, I believe it's possible to have a great Oracle/SAN implementation if it's setup correctly and tuned. Other resources that you can Google are "Using SVA SnapShot with Oracle", "Performance Benchmark LSI Logic E4600 (STK D178)", "SAN Storage for Open Systems Environments", and of course check the OraFaq.

Index Partitioning
Title: Adhoc queries and limiting the amount of records queried... Hi all System is Siebel Ok I got a couple of tables about 6 GB big, up to 10 million rows. Some of the tables come out of the box with 30+ indexes, now for those not aware Siebel does not support the dropping of any indexes. I do though know what my indexes is that are hit the most and was thinking of partitioning them and or maybe the tables. Firstly If I was to partition only the table, Would I have to make any changes to the currently indexes other than rebuilding them. Second. Is it possible for to only partition a selected index. Here I keep on seeing local and global partitions - indexes. From what I can determine Global is bad news. How do I do local, what consideration are there. Some of the tables/indexes considered is orders, orderliness, shipments, shipments lines, all with well over 5 million records each. The queries is not date specific but more account or contact specific for the order if that's helps. I was considering partitioning on order_id but again it looks best to use hash partitioning since there is not real way of saying the queries will always go this way. Basically trying to reduce the work for Oracle to get to data. All my queries is already using the best possible index.

This is for Siebel 6.3 running against Oracle and shows Support suggesting to the client that the use of CBO is acceptable, providing statistics are kept up to date. Why are you interested in this? I thought we had now loaded our bulk data and only had deltas to do, or are you now looking at Newark data? If you want to go down this route you may want to open your own SR to Support, referencing the one below and asking for clarification that the use of CBO is OK. The only thing Siebel normally has against CBO is that it can perform poorly compared to RBO, given that the SQL Siebel generates is tuned for the use of the RBO. However if you test both approaches and find that CBO is faster for you I cannot see why it will cause you any problems, it is simply a performance change, not a functional one. Regards Chuck Service Request #: 38-240228854 Area: EIM S2000 Product Release: V6 (Siebel 2000-Enterprise) Version: 6.3 [10169] Database: Oracle Database Version: 8.1.6 Status: Resolved GMT Date Opened: 02/12/2001 22:06:29 Abstract: EIM Performance on EIM_COMM Messages: 1 2 3 Description: We are doing mass imports to the S_COMMUNICATION table and have noticed slow EIM performance. I've set the the SQL PROFILE and have determined that one particular query has resulted in 95.4% of the total processing time. I've done the explain plan. It showed 3 non-unique range scans for the update statement. The first index choice seems to be a bad choice, but there doesn't seem to be one that's better. The production is targeted to contain 5MM records loaded into this table on a tight conversion schedule. Any performance robbers must be removed to prevent a lengthy conversion time. Activity Type: Resolution GMT Created: 05/09/2001 05:12:27 Messages: 1 2 3 Comment: For the benefit of other readers, the performance degradation is owning to the fact that the database optimizer picked an inefficient index. Analyzing s_org_ext resolved the problem. The slow query is: UPDATESIEBEL.EIM_COMM IT SETT_COMMUNICA_PRCONI = (SELECT/*+ INDEX(BT S_CONTACT_U3)EIM Index Hint */ MIN(BT.ROW_ID) FROMSIEBEL.S_CONTACT BT WHERE (BT.BU_ID = IT.COMM_CON_BI AND BT.FST_NAME = IT.COMM_CON_FST_NAME AND BT.LAST_NAME = IT.COMM_CON_LAST_NAME AND BT.PRIV_FLG = IT.COMM_CON_PRIV_FLG AND (BT.MID_NAME = IT.COMM_CON_MID_NAME OR (BT.MID_NAME IS NULL AND IT.COMM_CON_MID_NAME IS NULL)) AND BT.PR_DEPT_OU_ID = (SELECTMIN(BT2.ROW_ID) FROM SIEBEL.S_ORG_EXT BT2 WHERE (BT2.BU_ID = IT.COMM_CON_ACC_BI AND (BT2.LOC = IT.COMM_CON_ACC_LOC OR (BT2.LOC IS NULL AND IT.COMM_CON_ACC_LOC IS NULL)) AND BT2.NAME = IT.COMM_CON_ACC_NAME WHERE (IF_ROW_BATCH_NUM = 4036 AND IF_ROW_STAT_NUM = 0 AND T_COMMUNICA__STA = 0) According to the execution plan, s_org_ext_m17 instead of s_org_ext_u2 was picked originally for the subquery on s_org_ext. Although Oracle optimization mode is set to Rule for the application, cost-based optimizer is used to generate the execution plan for the above query because of the existence of the index hint. This is the behavior of the database. The cost-based optimizer relied on statistics to generate an efficient execution plan, while the rule-based optimizer generates plans based only on SQL statements. The fact that there was no statistics available for s_org_ext is the reason why s_org_ext_m17 was selected. In this case, there are actually two ways to have the correct index, s_org_ext_u2, to be picked in the plan. One is to add the parameter "USE INDEX HINTS = FALSE" into the ifb file, which eliminates all the index hints during the EIM job. The other is to gather statistics for s_org_ext. Considering index hints might be useful for other queries, we decided to adopt the latter. Please note that it is necessary to update the statistics periodically
