RE: PMON seems to not close sessions in a timely manner eg Max

2002-12-24 Thread Wong, Bing
Mine is 8.1.7.2 on HP.  
In init.ora, processes=1000 sessions=1000 mts_servers=8, mts_max_servers=20,
dispatcher=10

I have not seen maximum process reached but have seen Deadlock: MTS Max
Servers (20) reached because applications had more than usual connections
once in a while.  But that's ok with the applications.

Well, I had placed the db is MTS mode and still hit the max
processes(50)

#MTS_DISPATCHERS=(protocol=tcp)(dispatchers=5)(pool=on)(tick=1)
(connections=1000)(sessions=4000) 
#MTS_MAX_DISPATCHERS=32
#MTS_SERVERS=5
#MTS_MAX_SERVERS=64
#MTS_SERVICE=MYDB
#MTS_LISTENER_ADDRESS =
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(PORT=1521)(HOST=MYSERVER))

And was able to have only shared connections as opposed to direct
connections 

EG shows server=shared
select username, program, server from v$session 
where audsid=userenv('sessionid'); 

I think Ive read all the docs I can find on multi threaded server but
did not see anything about creating a service or adding a dispatcher, Im
of the understanding that placing the above in my init.ora file,  that
creates the dispatcher when I bounce the db? In this case as far as I
see my MTS service is MYDB.. Eg my SID

So, I must be missing something... I'd sincerely appreciate any
suggestions ... Examples?? From all the docs I see this is all that's
needed, obiviously not - Please advise


Thanks
bob

 
 Add a dispatcher, configure MTS, min server processes and add 
 an Oracle service for this MTS.
 
 An then let this app connect to Oracle through the MTS service.

 Each call takes only seconds but it seems like PMON dosnt 
 close the process in a timely manner, leaving what look to be 
 ghost process. If a few users hit the same app the processes 
 go to = 50 then I get the dreaded ORA-nnn max processes (50) reached
 
 I can watch processes increse and decrese with v$session 
 and v$process, they just dont seem to close quick enough. 
 (however, they do eventually close)
 
 Any ideas what to look for. Ive searched Google and for

 I think I'd like to tell PMON how frequently to check for

  Row cache locks on INSERTs with a sequence
  Thanks for the replies. 
  And, good guess Jonathan. 
  We've already made some changes to the stored procedure 
  implementing the INSERT statement. 
  Upon investigation, I found that the table involved is used as 
  a staging table in a batch process. Instead of 
  truncating the table at the start of the load process, they were performing a DELETE. The table had 0 rows, was 
  38MB in size, and had 300 extents. 
  The index underlying the PK constraint on this table had 632 
  extents. 
  In addition, looking at the code and table design, found that 
  they did not need a sequence at all. The 
  column utilizing the sequence was simply a dummy number not involved in defining any keys in the live table. Merely using 
  an internal counter in a PL/SQL loop would have 
  sufficed. 
  Nice. The developers were adamant to management that the 
  DBA team was at fault, did not know how to manage the 
  database, etc; and now they are skulking in the corner 
  avoiding us.

  If the wait times on the latch were significant, I 
  think I'd check that the inserts were high volume 
  inserts into tables with a very small extent sizes and lots of indexes, also with very small extents. 
  I wouldn't have thought it was anything to do with sequences.

everything completes succesfully and even the log file
says EXPORT COMPLETED SUCCESSFULLY WITHOUT ANY WARNING.

But while importing it,only 17 tables are imported.
after that the cursor stands still and the import does
not process further.the remaining 16 tables are not imported
at all.

why is it so ? have any of you come across such situation ?

will datafiles of size greater than 2G cause such problem ?

the DB is on oracle 8.1.6/Win2k.

kindly let me know guys.

TIA.

the images are to be displayed over mobile phones.so the time to

  for this to be achieved , i am confused , whether the images
  should be stored in o/s file system or in the DB ?

  --selecting a file from linux o/s file system ---
   or
  --querying it from oracle DB ( on win2k) ---

  which of the above will be faster ?

all these will be done with java . this being condition , i

I just wanted to ping the list to see what other people have done to control
or constrain adhoc query users??? 

We have a group that is struggling with the adhoc query piece that's in
production.  Some of the users end up firing off insane queries.  The group
is trying to find a way to limit the amount of records queried for, so that
a wild query doesn't hose the database.

Appending a ROWNUM to the WHERE clause is one idea.  Using USER PROFILEs is
another.  Any other thoughts?? 

Dare I ask...this custom app also runs on SQL Server, so SQL Server ideas
would also be appreciated. 

Many thanks!!!

RE: Can I index this query?

2002-10-15 Thread Wong, Bing

If that content is statics, create a column that called TRACKINGEVENTID
stores 'TrackingEventId='.  Is EVENTID the same as TRACKINGEVENTID?

Partition it by QUEUETYPE so that it only goes after one patition instead
the entire table if partition does not affect other SQLs.

Howdy,

I have a table that has almost 2 million rows called eventqueueentry.
The layout looks like this:

Name  Null?Type
 - 

 EVENTID   NOT NULL NUMBER(10)
 VER   NOT NULL NUMBER(10)
 QUEUETYPE NOT NULL CHAR(16)
 PUBLISHER NOT NULL CHAR(16)
 CREATETIMENOT NULL DATE
 LASTREADTIME   DATE
 REMOVETIME DATE
 CONTENTS  NOT NULL VARCHAR2(4000)

The users do a query that looks like this:

SELECT  EventId, QueueType, Publisher, CreateTime, LastReadTime, RemoveTime,
  Contents, Ver
from
 EventQueueEntry  where QueueType = 'CodeUpdate' AND Contents LIKE
  '%TrackingEventId=27668677%' ORDER BY EventId

The queuetype field has only 3 different values. The value in the contents
field is close to being unique (high cardinality) but, as you can see, they
are picking off a value somewhere in the middle of a varchar2(4000) field.
Understandably, their query is slow. Is there anything I can do with an
index to speed this up?

RE: Hot Backup using EMC /BCV splits

Nat,

We have a similar backup strategy using a homegrown split procedure on
Compaq Tru64.  We split while all tablespaces are in backup mode as our's is
a controller based split and takes 5-6 minutes.  After all, if the split is
going to take place after the tablespaces are taken out of backup mode, why
put them in backup mode at all?!?   I personally would not rely on the
hardware to keep the database consistent during a split, but then again, I
don't have any experience with EMC.

Hello,

We are on IBM AIX 4.3.3  with EMC and BCVs. Our Unix admin has setup the
backups for the database in following sequence to do the Hot backup.

1.  Put all tablespaces in the database in Hot backup mode
2. Sleep 5
3. Put all the tablespaces back into normal mode
4. Split the BCV's
5. Mount on another machine and backed up from it.

What I am concerned is with step 4.  Split BCV's should be done at step 2
instead of step 4.
According to our Unix Admin, EMC takes care of consistency and there is no
need for any concern. As per him the split is instant split and EMC
guarantees consistency.

What do you all think.  What is the recommended procedure.

TIA,

Nate

The calendar_date(or changed to calendar_day) should be just the day of the

everyday's day.  
Or get rid of calendar_year and calendar_month since calendar_date contains

Ok i'm messing with dimensions.

dm_time to be exact:

create table dm_time
( calendar_date date not null,
  calendar_month number(2) not null,
  calendar_qtr number(1) not null,
  calendar_year number(4) not null);

insert into dm_time values(to_date('20020101','MMDD'), 1,1,2002);
insert into dm_time values(to_date('20030101','MMDD'), 1,1,2003);

 2 rows nice and simple

 trying to validate the dimension comes up with an error, my guess is 
because of the design of the table
 
 where basically calendar_date is child of
 calendar_month is child of calendar_qtr is child of calendar_year, 
wont validate.

-  the question i have is this, should month really be like 2002-01 with 
the year included, likewise with qtr, then it
will validate ok.

Was the design of dm_time just dont wrong or am i missing something here.

Hi all,
Having a bad start of week.
My temp tablespace is growing abnormally -from 3GB - 32 GB (Filled up
disk).
DB is 81700 on Tru64 Unix, 120GB in size, appx 150 front-End users running 
billing application for appx 200,000 customer base.
Initially set-up as OPS but undone though init.ora file still has
PARALEL_SERVER=TRUE, only one node is active.

I've seen a refernce to OPS in relation to de-allocation of extents but
can't
get further.
Any help will be appreciated.

RE: Database Normalization-Outdated?

Normalization process should be done at the logical level, but it can be

To speak to that point; we are the state tax department.  We received and
send mail, hundreds of pieces.  Our original tax appliation required us to
go to at least10 tables to get an address because it was completely
normalized.  When we go the new and improved version this was denormalized
for the sake of design and speed.  Storage is cheap now, but bad coding can
take more resources than you have.

Just my $.02,

 My Opinion:

 The purpose of Normalization is to reduce redundant storage. It is a trade
 off between affording redundancy(as far as you can?)and avoiding to many
 joins later. It can not be true accross the board. Designers should go by
 the merit/requirements of the application. If database is normalized as
and
 where it is possible(i.e. up to Boyce-Codd Normal Form); it might become a
 nightmare while trying to run BUSINESS OBJECTS/COGNOS/etc against it. As
 Hanna just mentioned joining 17 tables. AT my present work place I am
 dealing with a db which is so poorly designed. Now to be able to support
 BUSINESS OBJECT the developers are kind of taking band aid approach -
asking
 for denormalizing the db tables with so called WORK TABLES - It is
serving
 two purposes, saving them from coding nightmares and improving apps
 performance.

 As far as RI is concerned I have seen in places they do not use RI rather
 loves to maintain data integrity by using triggers. My opinion on this -
 This is more of a preference than to do with any technicality.
 I am for RI.

Basing it on my Solaris experience the \ is a control character so the
system will treat the ( and ) as part of the export command.  But doesn't it
need to be immediate before the ( and )?  I.e., \( instead of \ (?

What is the error you're getting?

Rafiq,

I upgraded an HP-UX 11.0 64-bit machine in early April. (8.1.6.3.0 to
8.1.7.3.0) It was the worst upgrade I've ever gone through, but everthing
appears to be running normally.  (I'm not using locally managed tablespaces
yet though.)  I was missing a couple of operating system patches and the
machine isn't the quickest in the world (and I have 3 databases on that
machine).  I plan on upgrading another HP-UX 11.0 64-bit machine to
8.1.7.3.0 by the end of the month.  I'm a little nervous about 8.1.7.3.0 on
Solaris 7, so I'm going to do some reading before taking the databases to
either 8.1.7.2.0 or 8.1.7.3.0.

this problem happens. You can check it degree from dba_tables or

You may use following query while running your job to establsish what type

RE: Locally Managed Tblsp. Vs Dictionary Managed Tblsp.

2002-01-02 Thread Wong, Bing

Happy New Year!

Agreed!  I like so much with locally managed tablespace because every extent
size is uniform, therefore no fragmentation; you don't have to worry about
the number of extents at the table level.  I even make the temporary
tablespace to be LMT.

What is the acceptable extent size if you mix large tables with small tables
(in terms of nbr of rows) in one tablespace?  For example:
you have 20 tables; 10 of them will have only less than 1000 rows, 5 of them
will have less than 2 rows and the rest will have 10 rows or more.
Now what is the appropriate extent size for the tablespace if you decide to
create only one tablespace for all 20 tables?  If you split into 3
tablespaces, then you can easily set the extent size for each.  Please don't
let it frustrate you!  If you are very concerned with wasting space, then
you should split into more tablespaces.

Hi -

Does anyone have experience with either of these products?  I'm
interested
in ease of installation, ease of use, and quality of support.  I realize
they are both pricey, but they both seem to do a lot.  I've been asked
to
look at alternatives (I'm sure the cost will be prohibitive, but we'll
see).

Also if you know of any comparable tools, I'm very interested to hear

them.

8.1.7.1 has bug related to memory leak on all UNIX platforms, I think.  Also
it has bug related to the maximum number of 536 concurrent active sessions.
I had applied patch 8.1.7.2.1 and problems went away.

If you have more than 300 or 400 connections, should consider MTS.

Something to think about.

My hot backup is to put one tablespace in backup mode one at a time and copy
that data file to disk and alter it back online.  No problem

Kimberly,
 You can change a tablespace to read only with no problems and you should
take a backup to capture the change. Your last paragraph stated you wanted
to move the datafile to the disk that the tape backup picks
That will cause you problems if you move the datafile. You should copy the
datafile because the Oracle knows that it is located at disk-1 not disk-2.
Your users can still select from the tablespace as usual and if I remember
correctly they can truncate if they have the priviledge but not delete from.
I use the same method every 6 months. Archive older data to a read only
tablespace that contains my archive tables. 
Remember, all of the tablespaces in the datafile have to be read only.

Just throwing something out cause I am not sure if I am thinking correctly.
I have a database that is not using partitioning so we split each month out
into seperate tables/indexes by month and store them in their own
tablespaces.  These are kinda big so we occasionally put a tablespace into
read-only mode, shutdown the database, perform a cold backup right to tape.


Problem is, we are putting this database into ServiceGuard.  Its kind of a
big pain in the butt to shutdown a database that is running in ServiceGuard
yet still have the disks available.  So I will now have to start handling
this will the hot backup.  NOTE: not using RMAN and really don't want to.
Its not that I don't trust it, just not worth it in this environment.  

I am thinking that everything will be ok if I put the tablespace into
read-only, move the datafile to the disk that the tape backup picks up
during the OS backup along with a backup control file.  I should then be
able to recover this with no issues.  

Sound logical?

 Yes you can.   But it will only be that way for new records added.  We
had
the same problem on 8.0.5 .

But that should be ok.   Our problem was that , on new records, we had
reads
coming thru that appeared to do full table scans while the initial
inserts
were coming thru.  This, apparently, caused a problem with the tables
because locks started to build up.  When we changed our initrans to 2 on
all
those tables, our locking problem went away.

We need something to monitor the DB and alert us, and something to run

This could save me months of research and surfing.

RE: Question about temporary segments

I would just increase that AWW_INDEX1 larger and then downsize it after
rebuilt.



-Original Message-
Sent: Thursday, October 18, 2001 2:35 PM
To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L


From Metalink Doc ID: 136644.996

During an index rebuild, there are two types of temporary segments involved.


First, there are the temporary segments that are used to store partial sort
data when the SORT_AREA_SIZE is too small to process the complete sort set.
These segments are built in the user's default TEMPORARY tablespace. 

Second, as the index is being rebuilt, it uses a segment which is defined as
a temporary segment until the rebuild is complete. Once this segment is
fully populated, the old index can be dropped and this temporary segment is
redefined as a permanent segment with the index name. 

The error you are seeing is probably due to there being insufficient room in
the index's tablespace to hold both the original index and the new version
concurrently. The new version of the index, currently a temp segment, will
be in the tablespace where the index is required.

Greetings All;
I am confused and hope someone can straighten me out.

My confusion surrounds temporary segments and where they are created.  I had
assumed that temporary segments were created in a user's, assigned temporary
tablespace.  However when I have a creation failure, for example, if I am
attempting to rebuild an index that is currently in tablespace aww_index1, I
received the following error: (ORA-1652: unable to extend temp segment by
1280 in tablespace AWW_INDEX1), this is telling me that the temp segment is
being created in the tablespace that the permanent object exists in.  Is
this always the case?  Is the only purpose of the user's, assigned
TEMPORARY table space for sorting.  Can I tell Oracle to redirect the
creation of the temp segment to a different tablespace?  If so how is that
accomplished?

Thanks in advance.

Hi all, 

We installed 815, 817 on Sun 5.6.  There is an 817

same database but at 815 level.  

I don't think I can copy 817's backup files and create
a 815 db, since the backup already has 817
characteristics.  Is there a way to do degrade?

If I create an 815 db, and do an export/import, how do
I make sure the dmp from 817 only have 815
characteristics.  Full db export won't work, is it? 
And does schema export has nothing to do with Oracle
version, if so, I can use schema dmp file.

matter what the size of extent.

Hello,

I'll do an reorganization of a database (about 140 gigs). Some people say
that it'd be good to use 128K, 4M and 128M extents. I saw somewhere it'd be
160K, 4M and 160M. Which size do you advice me ? I have also many small
indexes (less than 16K).

Anyone have something that can read the oracle dbf files? A client
got my name from a friend and is asking if I can recover some of his
data from a corrupt file in a database that has no backup. I have heard
Oracle has something to do this but charges alot to perform this for
them. I would like to help them with this and get my foot in the door
for more projects like setting up backups:)

I believe it is all of the clients documentation for the last 3 years.
Oops:)

  NO .
  i do my partitionning on 
  this STATUS column.
  
  When i do insert in this 
  table, data are correctly inserted in the right partition BUT if I want to 
  update the STATUS field, it returns me an error I found 
  ambiguous:
  "ORA-14402: updating

  The "would" is confusing

If this is an attack by outside terrorists, please
don't equate Islam with terrorism, or say things like

not condone this kind of behavior and abhors

RE: Logical Backup for a large database

I would suggest to export schema by schema and schedule the jobs to run
different time.  In the export job, use pipe file at the unix level to
compress the export file.  The command is as follows:

To export and compress at the unix level...

mknod export_pipe p
compress  export_pipe  export.dmp.Z
exp  ...   file=export_pipe


To import and uncompress...

uncompress  export.dmp.Z  export_pipe
imp ...   file=export_pipe

Last week one of my user dropped a table since we don't have any backup
except for rman backup. It is not allowe me to do any recovery on 7/24
database.  Anyway we recreate the table(we are lucky, this table hold
parameters)

This make me think of situation of lossing very important big table. We have
about 1000 tables with bigget one of  8GB .

Is there any idea how to perform a logical backup on a database with 150GBs.
Or take a TSPITR in case of those kind of thing  happen again.  From my
case, imp/exp looks impossibe from point of view of timing and spacing. The
question will be the same for TSOITR on large database. Is there any other
way to prepre those kind of situation.

Take a look at index_caching parameters, they can make a big difference when
using cost mode, Oracle's settings are very poor.

I have a good article on my site www.vampired.net under Performance which is

Hi there,

Unfortunately you can't just throw things like FIRST_ROWS at a select
statement to make it run faster. The person who wrote the statement should
have taken into account such things as:

a) Size of tables, ordering, which is the driving table
b) Indexes, are the being used, running statements through explain plan will
show you where the bottlenecks are...failing that TKPROF will identify
potential problem areas with your database.
c) Size of queries, joins etc.

Too many developers do not write code to be efficient, as long as it returns
the correct values it doesn't matter whether it takes 2 minutes or  2
hours...

I've spent a number of hours/days/weeks/months tidying up poorly optimised
code, it's an absolute nightmare for the DBAs and it doesn't look good on
the developers.

Cheers,
Kev.

RE: computer history stories - Now: Age discrimination?

2001-08-06 Thread Wong, Bing

I decided to delete most of the messages to make this list shorter.

Was any one born with  Smart/Einstein ability without learning?

IQ from what I understand is COMPLETELY related to how fast you learn.

IQ is your ability to learn, nothing to do with how Smart you are.

Smart is how much you know, nothing to do with how you learn.

Do not criticize someone until you walked a mile in their shoes, that way
when you criticize them, you are a mile a way and have their shoes.

since when did IQ have any relation to how fast you learn?

some of the most brilliant people I know are slow thinkers, who take time to

process what they are learning and take even more time to make sure that 
what they are saying is accurate before they speak.

RE: ORA-00600 on Production DB - Need advice

2001-08-06 Thread Wong, Bing

This may not be related to your problem.  My shop had problem with 8.1.7,
HP-UX 11.0  - 32 bit.  We encountered memory leak bug.  Oracle knew about it
and had not had a patch yet, I think.  So we disable the db handle caching.

Mondays, gotta love em, they make Fridays worth the wait.  I've got a
production database (8.1.7, HP-UX 11.0 - 64 bit) that started throwing an
ora-600 when users try to log in.  I've created a TAR (3 hours ago), but
haven't gotten any response.  Here's the error:

ERROR:
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [kzckini: nzdsi_i], [28750], [],
[],
[], [], [], [

Metalink has a couple of messages stating that this is an OS problem
related to the ulimit size, availability of virtual memory, and the ability
to create a pga.  Suggested remedy is to increase the ulimit.   My SA has
dismissed this as a cause.  I've knocked all the users off, but still can't
log in.  When I run ulimit I get the following:
 qe2n1: /u001/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/dbsulimit
 4194303

Any suggestions?
