RE: Free Java dba monitoring tool and Java source code

2001-04-21 Thread Sam P. Roberts (ZADCO ITIS)

Andy any luck with installing the tool.
I enclose word doc about the tool

Any problems with installation, please dont hesitate to contact me.
The initial setting up of a Java application is always tricky, but once
youve done one, you can get a clear picture.

Thanks

Hi Sam,

 As part of my masters dissertation I have developed an SQL monitoring tool
 using Java/JDBC/thin drivers that allows the DBA to see who is taking up
the
 resources currently in a database. 
 This is not at all a commercial venture, purely
 academic. Plus if you want to learn about Java/JDBC this can be an
 invaluable asset/starting point as you know the subject well and you can
see
 how the tool has been built.

I'd love to see your Java Oracle DBA Open Source tool, up on a public
internet
site somewhere for download! :-)

Some other Java-Oracle type Open Source links you might want to look at, to
help further your own work, are:

Apache JServ = http://java.apache.org/jserv/index.html
DB Prism, Java/Oracle servlet engine =
http://www.plenix.com/dbprism/doc/Home.html
Tomcat (replacement for JServ) =
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/index.html
jDBA, another Java Oracle DBA tool = http://www.jdba.org
ViennaSQL, Java/Oracle SQL tool = http://vienna.sourceforge.net

jDBA may the one you're most interested in, but using Java as the
programming
language for Open source projects, including Oracle ones, is growing rapidly
in
popularity! :-)

Hope this is of some use 8)

Rgds,
AndyD

Recheck your classpath and the versions of your classes file(i.e. correct

I am trying to test a jdbc application using Oracle' thin client driver from
AIX. The database that I am trying to go against is 8.1.6 server on an NT
box. I keep getting the following error on compile:

OracleConn.java:10: Class oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver not found in type
declaration.
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
   ^
The CLASSPATH does contain classes111.zip. I have also tried using
classes12.zip in the CLASSPATH. Each time I get the same error.

This is the piece of code I'm trying to compile:
public OracleConn()
{   try
 {
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
  }
 catch ( Exception e)
 {  System.out.println("Error Loading driver");
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

public Connection getOracleConnection(String dbname, String userid, String
pwd)
{
 String url = "jdbc:oracle:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:1521:" + dbname;
 Connection myConn = null;
 try
 {
  myConn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, userid, pwd);
  System.out.println("Connection successful") ;
}

...


What am I doing wrong

Thanks,
Manas.

RE: Deployment of Oracle Client

2001-03-12 Thread Sam P. Roberts (ZADCO ITIS)

The way we did it to 2000 users without a hitch.
You dont need to install full client, only sqlnet or net8 (approx 28meg).
We use Novell launcher. Take a snapshot on one machine, then novell
automatically launches it to all clients.There should be similar products to
this.(I think SMS by Microsoft). We have a constantly changing environment
whereby the applications are updated,we use this method to update all local
machines,and it works a dream. This is for now as we have a mixture of fat
client and browser based.

How do most organizations deploy sqlnet client to a large user base?  We've
currently got hundreds, maybe thousands of users with various versions of
the client installed on their desktop.  We're also about to roll out Windows
2000 to a large percentage of these users.  In testing we've determined that
earlier desupported client versions (7.3.4 and such) seem to work on W2K
with the apps currently deployed.  I'm not happy with a "cross your fingers
and hope" approach and have been pushing to get most users up to 8i as a
client.  Ideally I'd like to have something the users can download and
install from the intranet.  In searching technet downloads all I find is the
entire bloated 200MB Oracle Client as a download - much too big for our
remote users to download and install.  All I want is the Net8 pieces I'd
need for sqlworksheet, or TOAD, or an ODBC connection, so that the download
and install time would be within reason.  Anybody have suggestions?  How are
people on this list deploying Oracle apps to many users?  Thanks.

Hi, 
  The suggestion till yet provided are the correct ones and safest. But
try this in your test database, get you table id from sys.obj$ table. Then
get the columns details from sys.col$ table by giving the table id in where
clause. Update the row which corresponds to the column which you want  to
modify.

It's not possible to rename a column.You can instead

Yeah right!  I have six years of experience and I use shutdown abort all the
time.  Just force a checkpoint first to speed up hot recovery on the
startup.  The other forms of shutdown take too long, and may never complete
if you have long running transactions that don't do frequent commits.
Check out the following paper if you think I am wrong...
http://www.wolfenet.com/~jeremiah/241.pdf

Startup force, on the other hand, I would never use this unless I had a high

 One thing I would say Neena - ONLY use SHUTDOWN ABORT as an absolute LAST
 resort!!
 
 If you are shuting down the database normally, on 8, first do a SHUTDOWN
 TRANSACTIONAL, if you need to close the database quickly, try a SHUTDOWN
 IMMEDIATE, wait for 5 or so minutes, and if all else fails ONLY THEN issue
 a
 SHUTDOWN ABORT!!
 
 SHUTDOWN ABORT can cause corruption, and recovering is a bit of a pain the
 arse (as a list memeber found out recently).. You don't seem to have a lot
 of experience with Oracle, as Joe mentioned. Now I have around 3 years
 experience and STILL have NO experience with Backup and Recovery (fair
 enough it is not an issue for me).
