Re: Newbie kinda question
Purchase the D2K package from Oracle. However Procedure Builder is being phased out by Oracle. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/23/01 10:55AM Hi Everybody, I'm currently studying for some Oracle Certification from a private organization, which will then put me through the Oracle DBA exams. I'm currently working on the PL/SQL programming modules. All the information I have consistently refers to Procedure Builder for programming with PL/SQL. However, I cannot seem to find where I can get a copy of Procedure Builder. I have gotten a copy of TOAD, however I'm not entirely happy with it. Statements which are allowed to run in SQL*Plus are not being run under TOAD for some reason. So, in summary, where can I get a copy of Procedure Builder ? Thanks, Michael.

Re: Can't code for s.... peanuts
Have you applied the function against the database. For example if you type
select owner,object_name
from all_objects
where object_name = 'CHECK_FOR_NAME';
If nothing is returned, it has not been stored in the database or you don't have
rights to view it using your current schema. If you did put it in the database, did it
go in with NO errors.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/23/01 02:26PM
Hi again everybody,
I'll try to be as descriptive as possible, sorry if I leave anything important out.
I have the following function which I'm compiling using PL/SQL Developer (tnx
Djordje).
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION check_for_name (
p_name_to_check VARCHAR)
RETURN BOOLEAN IS
CURSOR c_namestbl IS
SELECT lname
FROM names
WHERE lname = p_name_to_check;
v_return_value BOOLEAN;
BEGIN
OPEN c_namestbl;
IF c_namestbl%NOTFOUND THEN
v_return_value := FALSE;
ELSIF C_namestbl%FOUND THEN
v_return_value := TRUE;
END IF;
RETURN v_return_value;
CLOSE c_namestbl;
END check_for_name;
It compiles without errors (now).
The table 'names' is built like this :
SVRMGR DESCRIBE names;
Column NameNull?Type
--
FNAME VARCHAR2(20)
LNAME VARCHAR2(20)
SVRMGR
With data like this :
SVRMGR SELECT * FROM names;
FNAMELNAME
BruceWillis
SalmaHayek
Tom Cruise
Elle McPherson
4 rows selected.
But, whenever I try to do this :
EXECUTE check_for_name('Cruise');
so I can run the function from PL/SQL Developer I get the following error :
ORA 0900 - Invalid SQL Statment
However, If I execute the same statement from SQL*Plus or svrmgrl I get a differant
error :
SVRMGR EXECUTE check_for_name('Cruise');
check_for_name('Cruise');
*
ORA-06550: line 2, column 2:
PLS-00221: 'CHECK_FOR_NAME' is not a procedure or is undefined
ORA-06550: line 2, column 2:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
I'm running Oracle Enterprise Edition 8.1.5.0.0 on Windows 2000.
If that's not enough info, please let me know and I will supply whatever I can.
Thanks for reading this far :)
Michael.

My first question is what is your field of study in school? Is it computer related? Have you graduated, many employers want to see you graduate before they will hire you. Have you asked any of your larger companies about any IS extern programs that they might have. If you have graduated, have you put your resume into some of the job search engines like monster.com or hotjobs.com? Don't give up, the IS field is still hot, but not equally hot around the country.

Re: user defined data type
A date field contains both the date and time. If you only want to display the time use a call to to_char(my_date,'HH:MM:SS'). If for some reason you REALLY only want to store the time of day, I would store the number of seconds since midnight in a number. for example 6:32.35pm would be (18*60*60) + (32*60)+35 or 66755. This would allow the user to sort by the time. A third way would be to use a varchar2 field and store the time as HHMMSS or using my example above '183235'.

Re: SYS vs SYSTEM
What account I use depends on what I am doing. For example to set up roles, grant rights, and create users I use the SYSTEM account. For anything else, I use my DBA account. The reason is that if I ever leave and my account is removed, all those rights that I granted and all the roles that I created would go away. The SYSTEM account will never be removed. We learned this the hard way because we had a DBA leave and we removed his user id. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/15/01 05:55AM Hi all, I generally use SYSTEM rather than SYS for DBA work, and would like to discourage the use of SYS as much as possible. Partly because it bypasses auditing and the profile, and also because I tend to regard SYS as being for Oracle-specific things (like running scripts from $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin) and SYSTEM for doing the day-to-day tasks (like administering storage, performance monitoring etc).

RE: SYS vs SYSTEM
That might be true in Oracle 8, but was a problem in Oracle 7. Just being paranoid. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/15/01 11:11AM Bill, Roles created by a user never go away. They are not attached to the user. They belong to the system (I just tried this in 816 - created a user, granted CREATE_ROLE to that user, connected as that user, created a role and dropped the user - the role still exists). Likewise grants to database objects. Once they are established, they exist on their own. Dropping the user who granted the access has nothing to do with the grant itself (unless it is to objects that existed in the dropped users account, because these objects go away). I never user the SYS or SYSTEM accounts to create accounts, roles or perform grants. I use SYS (or internal) for db startup and shutdown and Rman backups only. I create a DBA account (which owns the schema for the database) to do all of the create account, roles and object grants. I actually don't even know the System account password - if I really need to get into it, I alter the password to a new string and connect to it. I'm not saying that you are doing anything wrong. Every DBA has their own way of doing things, and your way is perfectly fine (not that you are asking for approval! :) ). At least you are not using the SYS or SYSTEM account for schema objects. I saw this happen once! Hope this helps!

Re: Taking your time when a crisis occurs
backups that everyone misses and actually Oracle recommends against. That is backing up your online redo log files and doing that LAST. The reason is that there are more than likely active transactions that were recorded therein and those logs are not available.

Re: multiple schema in a database ???
Oh by the way, an easy way to set up the same structure for each user is to build all the tables in a setup schema, then do the following. 1) Export everything in the setup schema using the following command exp userid=setup/pass file=setup.exp 2) Create the new schema (user), making sure to set the temporary tablespace and default tablespace to the correct tablespaces. Make sure that the user is granted the CONNECT role. 3) set the quota on the default tablespace to a unlimited or a reasonable max. In a class environment, I would suggest a set size. Set the quota on all other tablepsaces to none. 4) connected as the dba, import the export from the setup schema into the new schema using the following command. imp userid=dbauser/pass file=setup.exp ignore=y fromuser=setup touser= newuser When you are done, you have an exact copy of the tables, indexes, sequences... that were in the setup schema.

RE: Help - temp tablespace growing constantly
If you have the autoextend off, you might run out of space in your temp tablespace. If you have autoextend on, your temp file will keep growing. If you have a reasonably sized tablespace, you might want to look at the queries or index creations. How big is your entire database and how large is your temp tablespace.

RE: inserting into DATE colum
A database table date column always stores the date and time. For example is the
current date and time was 09-apr-2001 at 14:23.32 .
INSERT INTO MY_TABLE(MY_DATE) VALUES(SYSDATE);
This would store the entire date and time.
INSERT INTO MY_TABLE(MY_DATE) VALUES(TRUNC(SYSDATE));
This would store the date with a time of 00:00.00;
If you want to insert a date that is formatted in a varchar2 field into a date field
you would do the following.
insert into TbTABLE values (To_Date('03/09/2001','MM-DD-'),
To_Date('03/09/2001','MM/DD/'),
To_Date('03/09/2001 11:11:11','MM/DD/ HH:MI:SS))
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/09/01 02:26PM
Helmut,
If you want to insert the date in any format other than 'DD-MON-' or
'DD-MON-YY', you need to specify the date format when you use the to_date
function.

Hi!
I have a question concerning inserting data in a DATE column. The deal is
that sometimes, I just wanna insert DD/MM/ and in other cases I wanna
insert DD/MM/ HH:MI:SS in the same column.
How can I handle that?
insert into TbTABLE values (To_Date('03/09/2001'), To_Date('03/09/2001'),
To_Date('03/09/2001'), To_Date('03/09/2001'),
To_Date('03/09/2001 11:11:11'))
Do I need to supply formatting information for the date to the insert
statement?
This is 8.1.6 on Win2k.
Thanks,

Re: A problem to ponder
Have you tried rebuilding your indexes to balance them. If you are running cost based, have you rebuilt your statistics recently? Is this report using a table that is being used as a work table by other processes? [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/03/01 05:07PM V7.3.4.5 on V2.6 Solaris, if it matters. We generate a bunch 200+ reports (plz don't ask if they are all necessary) nightly via a series of tasks linked togther via shell scripts. In February many, many months before that this one report was averaging 20 minutes plus/minus 4 minutes to complete; night in and night out. Around 5 March this single report would either "never" finish, take 1 - 3 HOURS to complete or complete in about 20 minutes; WITHOUT any apparent reason for the change in elapsed run times. As far as we can tell "nothing has changed"! We've been unable to discern what is different between the nights where it completes in 20 minutes and nights where it does not. On those nights where it "never completes" if the session is KILLED and then re-run manually is ALWAYS completes in about 20 minutes. At this point in time this report is an annoyance and a mystery. We can live with the strange behavior, but would like to better understand why the elapsed times are so erratic. Running bstat/ estat while the report was on the system did not reveal any meaninful results. I'm asking for ideas and suggestions as I'm at a loss. TIA HAND!

Re: Update existing rows at import

RE: Exp Imp Overwirte posiible or not?
The DESTROY option on an import indicates whether the CREATE TABLESPACE commands only found in a full export should be executed. Setting DESTROY=Y destroys the data files of the database being imported into. This is only used when you want to rebuild an entire database, not to overwrite data in tables. If you really need the empty all the tables in a schema, disable the constraints on the tables, truncate them, and reenable the constraints. This will only work if the schema is self contained, and it's tables are not used as a foreign key for a table in a different schema. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/27/01 01:50PM IIRC, there is a flag for import "destroy=y" to do what you want. This is very dangerous and you should research all the implications before trying it. If you don't have the docs, try http://technet.oracle.com and read up on the import options.

Re: 1/2 control file failure - will database halt?
If you have a single corrupted database, replace the bad copy with the good one and restart the database. You should only have to modify the init.ora if the location of the corrupted or missing control file is not reachable. Each control file contains the exact same information. You have multiple control files to protect against losing all your control information. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/21/01 03:46PM I've been told a single control file failure will halt the database, even if you've got another control file on a second device; that the database will only come up again after editing the init.ora to remove the reference to the faulty control file and initiating a fresh startup. Is this still true, if it ever was true for any version of Oracle, for Oracle 8.X+? The person who warned me about the halt has been using Oracle since version 5.

RE: Re-claiming the space from Table after deleteion
The problem with truncating is that you have to release ALL records and the users procedure is deleting records older then one month, but not the more current records. And while you could move the data into a temp table, truncate, and reinsert the new records into the original table, you can't do this and keep the table available to the users. SHAIBAL TALUKDER [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/09/01 11:25AM Uttam, I think you are mixing up here. These are two different issues. You are talking about extent allocation and the thread is opened for reclaiming space from a table. As far as I know one can not reclaim space bellow the high water mark from a table. To reclaim the space you have to reduce the high water mark and you can do that by truncating.

Re: Re-claiming the space from Table after deleteion
It has always bothered me that Oracle has the compress=Y option on exp, but not a maximum initial extent size. We have a table that is larger then 2 gig and when you create an export, the table can't be imported without pre creating the table. If they had a max extent in exp, we could set it to maybe 1 gig and never have problems. The problem is that an extent must exist in only one data file and most Unix OS's have a max file size of 2 gig (though this is changing in new releases) SHAIBAL TALUKDER [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/09/01 11:31AM Raghu, If you go with compress = y you will end up with one big initial extent which is not desirable specifically if you are talking about real big tables. just my $0.02 Shaibal Raghu Kota [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Rafi This is the problem many big databases facing!!If you clean up the database every year and reorganizing the database You would't have see this scenario.

RE: opinions on naming primary keys in new database
We would use something like curt_id, not just id. That way you can query the dba_tab_columns or user_tab_columns to see everywhere a particular key is referenced. "Jeff Cox" [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/08/01 11:10AM Hugh, You are right that Richard Barker says not to use an entity name as part of an attribute name. (CASE*METHOD Entity Relationship Moddelling, by Richard Barker, page 3-9) And I believe Oracle still gives out this book in their Data Modeling class. I have seen databases that completely follow this method and others that include the table name in every column. As far as naming your primary key as a column called 'key', I don't like it either. I am also curious to see what is the preference of other list members. Regards, Jeff Cox IPS-Sendero Scottsdale, AZ -Original Message- Sent: Wednesday, March 07, 2001 4:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello, I wanted to get the lists opinion on the preference of naming primary keys. Please see my example below with the CUSTOMER table, and the customer TYPE table. The column 'type_id' is a foreign key referencing the TYPE table. This is just an example to get opinions. CUST TYPE +-+ +--+ | id | |id| | name| |desc | | type_id |--| | +-+ +--+ I like having my primary keys called id, and not including the table names in the columns of the original table. For example, in the CUST table, we would not have 'cust_id' as the primary key, we would just call it 'id'. But having 'type_id' as a column of the CUST table is okay because that is a foreign key, and not an attribute of the original CUST entity. Including the table name in a column that is not a foreign key, I believe, is redundant and not necessary. (I also remember reading this in a Richard Barker book.) All foreign keys would then have the standard of table_column, with the exception of tables with multiple foreign keys from the same table, and recursive relationships - which would then just include a more descriptive table_column name. This way, when you do a describe on a table, you will immediately be able to tell what are the foreign keys, and the primary keys. (I also believe in surrogate keys for most tables, so the problem of having a composite key is not an issue here.) I think that this will later make the database easier to understand to new DBAs and duhvelopers, which would have been nice when I worked on my first database. My questions: 1) What is your preference with primary and foreign keys - if you could design a database from scratch? 2) Am I off my rocker thinking that this is a good way to design a database? 3) We have a developer who wants to name all of our primary keys, 'key', and I am trying to convince her that we should use 'id' or 'nbr' instead. Has anyone ever used 'key' as the primary key of a table? This seems like it would be confusing when All constructive criticism is welcomed.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/23 8:20 AM I was wondering if it would be better to have three or four relatively slower CPUs than having only two faster ones.

The more CPUs exist the more time-consuming the debate (this is very simplified, I realize). Jonathan Lewis in Practical Oracle8i: Building Efficient Databases, Adison Wesley, p. says the opposite. Is this another one of those questions that has "it depends" as the only answer? Or that has very plausible theoretical answers that are mitigated in real life? I imagine that the I/O patterns play a part in the validity of either answer. Has anyone on this list tested to see which would be faster?

Re: shutdown Abort...Open normal??
STARUP FORCE - Issue a shutdown abort and then try to immediately restart the database. STARTUP RESTRICT - Open the database and only allow access to users with the RESTRICTED SESSION role. STARTUP MOUNT - Mounts the database, but doesn't open it for use. STARTUP NOMOUNT - Does not mount the database STARTUP RECOVER - Similar to the recover database command. It starts the database and attempts a recovery. STARTUP OPEN - Mounts and Opens the database STARTUP - Default open, which is STARTUP OPEN.

Re: Public Synonym SYSTEM causing Problem with Export
How about removing the public synonym and create a private one in the schemas that need it. Except for a table or procedure that is truly global, making a public synonym is never a good idea. "Nisha Patel" [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/13/01 09:55AM Hi All, I have a really wierd problem with a client who has tried to export the whole database. They get errors because there is a public synonym called System created by a user FCAADMIN. This public synonym caused several oracle supplied objects to go invalid resulting in the failed Oracle exports. I know we should not have a table called System but I had inherited the database and it is too late in the game to rename it. Does anyone have any solution to this problem?

Re: SQL parameter for batch runs [NT]
I have shutdown and startup scripts run by the root process via cron or init.d (automatic scripts at startup or shutdown). These scripts shell to the Oracle account, but because they start as root the scripts do not need the Oracle password. If you are running as the Oracle account you connect internal, which needs no password entered, and do your shutdown and startup's "O'Neill, Sean" [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/08/01 08:50AM Hi Folks, I have some SQL scripts which I use to Shutdown and Startup DBs. The SQL scripts are called from OS batch files and run using AT schedule service. Problem, or so I perceive it as being, is that I use SYSTEM user as part of script to connect to DB to Startup/Shutdown and I have the password for same (horror of horrors???) in the SQL script. So I'm wondering how othger folks manage the same process. Do you use the OS file protection to protect the SQL file from prying eyes or perhaps a particular Oracle account stripped of unecessary privs etc to include in script OR is there a antoher more secure way around this issue that I just have not realised?.
