Re: Hello
This looks like the Novarg worm What say people ? If yes, then thank you Listguru for filtering out the binaries [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a mass-mailing worm. The worm will arrive as an attachment with a file extension of .bat, .cmd, .exe, .pif, .scr, or .zip. When the machine gets infected, the worm will set up a backdoor into the system by opening TCP ports 3127 thru 3198. This will potentially allow a hacker to connect to the machine and utilize it as a proxy to gain access to it's network resources. In addition, the backdoor has the ability to download and execute arbitrary files. The worm will perform a DoS starting on February 1, 2004. On February 12, 2004 the worm has a trigger date to stop spreading. - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2004 04:04 -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: [EMAIL PROTECTED] INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California-- Mailing list and web hosting services - 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: another OCP question -- help me guys
Hi list , sorry to pester you with questions regarding boson OCP questions . i have scheduled for #1Z0-031 exam and so desperately need help from this list . please bear with me for while . look at the 2 questions below . Don't apologize Prem, who else are you gonna call, ghostbusters? :) - QUESTION #1 what happens when you issue the command below . drop tablespace testtbs including contents cascade constraints and datafiles; but boson's choice is A. i wonder how ??? Statement is incorrect, cascade constraints is placed in the end. Fine that explains that boson is wrong. But if you want to prepare for ocp then , you must also consider the possibility that a novice like me was sitting at boson preparing these questions. So the next time you come across a question whose answer doesn't match yours do the following in the order specified: 1. Assume boson is right and recheck your answer. Try it out on a test database. (make sure you get the conditions of the question correctly implemented). See the docs. 2. Assume boson is right and read the solution /explanation for the answer, then tally it with your answer and solution. 3. Still not happy ? Assume boson is right and re-read the question, there may be one word or a comma or a full stop or a bracket ,etc that is completly changing the meaning of the question but you may skipped it when reading the question. (It happens a lot to me, but then I am dumb :). Now tally your answer with boson 4. Still not happy ? (there is no pleasing you, is there? :) ok now you can do two things: 4a. The question and the solution given by boson are blatantly wrong (because of a typo or because I had set the question paper ) AND YOU ARE ABLE TO COMPLETLY REASON OUT out what is so wrong about the question and answer, what should it have been, what if that part of the question was changed so , etc etc, ; then correct the question and answer and move onto the next one. 4b The question is still blatantly wrong but you have a nagging doubt, then ask around . There may be some obscure formula (which works only in OCP exams) or the answer may be the least of all the evils given . Either which way time to mug it up Now keeping in mind these policies, have another look at the two questions you have given above and below. - QUESTION #2 you need to determine how much space has been allocated for a table. which view would give you this information ? A. dba_extents B. dba_ts_quotas C. dba_segments my choice is C . but boson's choice is A . it says other views cannot give the required details . a metalink doc says that dba_segments.blocks gives the total number of blocks allocated to the table. what will be the choice that you would go for ? - Both A and C are right. What will really boggle your mind is deciding what to say if you get the exact same question in the ocp exam and you have to make a single choice. But relax ocp exams are not as troublesome, they are much more professionally prepared. so now i have the question whether boson is reliable ? how many in this list have used it ? or am i missing something : (( After reading my letter I hope there is at least one thing you can say : Boson is not reliable , but it is essential. Remember , there is a big difference between studying and studying for an exam . And the only way to ace the ocp is to do many question papers like boson. .. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: [EMAIL PROTECTED] INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California-- Mailing list and web hosting services - 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: OCP question from Boson practice tests
Prem , OCP has nothing to do with knowledge and nothing to do with the real world. So if you want to give OCP, forget what you know and humbly, play by its rules. Right now if your are serious about giving OCP exams then please enable suspension of disbelief , don't ask why and just mug up the following 3 (any one of them may come up in the ocp exam , though not together) : 1. To optimize the performance of a sort in a temprary tablespace , set the UNIFORM SIZE to be a multiple of the parameter sort_area_size 2. To optimize the performance of a sort in a temprary tablespace , set the UNIFORM SIZE to be a multiple of sort_area_size * db_block_size 3. To optimize the performance of a sort in a temprary tablespace , set the UNIFORM SIZE to ben * sort_area_size + db_block_size.

Re: sequence
Joe you are absolutely right
From the sql reference : Where to use currval and nextval If
any of these locations contains references to both CURRVAL and NEXTVAL, then
Oracle increments the sequence and returns the same value for both CURRVAL
and
NEXTVAL.
Sorry for the rtfm question. I am really lucky to learn from you all.
Thanks list and a happy new year to you too.

Re: dual
Thanks - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2003 23:49 It's because we designed it that way. In earlier releases (can't remember the specific version we brought this in with), you could put more than one row in DUAL and then select them all, but all the things that should have returned only one row then failed with a 1403 (?) error - single row query returning more than one row. I remember well way way back in time before I joined Oracle having the fun of trying to debug why all our clients apps failed the night after we let a manager do the database maintenance. The forms that the apps used all included the date and time on the screen, and of course the manager had somehow ended up with two rows in DUAL, hence the failure. Very simple to address, by just deleting the extra row (and of course, never letting that manager do database maintenance again!). In due course, Oracle realized that DUAL was a special table and built into the kernel the functionality you mention to ensure that only one row is ever returned and hence those types of problems should not occur any more.

I'm new to HP-UX and need to find out how many processors are in a mchine
and at what clock speed they operate. I can get the number of CPUs through
glance or top, but I have no idea about the clock speed. How would I get
that information?
I would know how to do it on Solaris though... ;)

Re: Passed Net8 OCP Exam
Congrats dennis - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 17, 2003 00:54 I just passed the Net8 Administration OCP exam. This was my last exam, so I suppose I am now an OCP for Oracle8i. Thanks to everyone for their helpful tips. Some people said (or implied) that this is a very easy exam. I would dispute that. I found it just like the other exams, in that if you have quite a bit of on-the-job experience in the area, then it is easy. If not, you'll have to study more. In my case, - I don't like networking, and hate to drop everything to configure or debug someone's tnsnames.ora file. - Never had an Oracle networking class. - Our site has only needed local naming, so that is pretty much all my networking experience. Found all the questions related to local naming pretty easy. Never used Oracle Names, Connection Manager, MTS, Advanced Security. With the trend toward application servers with their connection pooling feature, I don't foresee us using any of those Oracle tools. I may need to use LDAP in the future, but that wasn't covered in the Oracle8i Net8 exam My goal was just to study and practice enough to practice the exam, and I accomplished the goal.

Re: shared_Pool_size
Arup , wow I am so glad that you answered . You always come up with the real mccoy answers. However I have a few questions stemming from what you said: 1. I tried running select * from v$sgastat where pool = 'shared pool' order by 3; on my 9.2.0.1.0 enterprise edition. I was unable to get any row containing name= 'db_block_buffers' and pool='shared pool' Which version did you run this on ? 2. If I allocate x MB to my buffer cache, does this mean that Oracle allocates that x mb for the buffer cache , and an additional x mb for managing the buffer cache and places it in the shared pool ? I did select sum(bytes) from v$sgastat where pool='shared pool; From this I subtracted the value of shared_pool_size. The difference is exactly equal to my db_cache_size. 3. What is the size of your buffer cache ? I wish Oracle had clearly defined all its memory needs in big big bold letters for novices like me. - Original Message - To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, October 03, 2003 9:16 PM Bulbul, I apologize for getting back to you late on this issue. As you can probably tell, I hardly find time to look at the Oracle-L messages. Anyway, your question is valid; actually it's an aberration of understanding the pool management in Oracle. When you define the shared_pool_size parameter in initialization parameter, that is not really the *whole* share pool, but only for part of it. The shared pool contains several other types of objects, such as PL/SQL Dianas, etc. Here is the output for my case.

Wait! shouldn't the db block buffers be in db_block_buffers? What are they doing in shared pool? Even though the actual buffers are defined by the parameter db_block_buffers, and the bufferes are created there, the actual management of the buffers, i.e. which one is free, which one is at which end of the Least Recently Used (LRU) list, etc. are maintained in the shared pool. Theefore the 35 MB area you see is allocated to the management of the db block buffers, outside the 36 MB I have defined. The 36 MB I defined goes into the sql area (8 MB), library cache (10 MB), db block hash buckets (5 MB) and dictionary cache (1 MB) and about 11 MB is free = 36 MB. The rest are all outside the defined shared pool. Hence you see a different number. Hope this helps. Arup Nanda
contents of shared pool
List please try out the following : 1. select sum(bytes) from v$sgastat where pool='shared pool'; 2. find out the size of the shared pool you have specified in your parameter files. 3. subtract the two values 4. When I do the same as above the difference is exactly equal to my db_cache_size. So does this mean that if I allocate x MB to my buffer cache, Oracle allocates that x mb for the buffer cache , and an additional x mb for managing the buffer cache and places it in the shared pool ?

exam
Thanks Do you feel you learned anything from this exam? My initial answer was : If there is one thing that I have learnt from this exam , its that studying for an exam is different from studying. This principle doesn't seem to apply so much to backup and recovery , adminstration fundamentals ,etc. However now that I have had a day to think about your question I have the following to say. I have spent all this time ( while I was preparing for this exam) complaining and being nervous. I was wrong to complain. Its only when we have a deadline to meet that we sit down and devote time to something. If nothing else this exam made me sit down and give time to studying and learning. I am glad that this exam is a part of ocp. Because of this exam I came into contact with so many wonderful new things and concepts. Granted that the very fact that I had a deadline to meet meant that I only learnt their names and did not get to know them well but I learnt that the rabbit hole really goes deep . This exam has taught me to respect performance tuning. If i did not have to give this exam , I would have remained oblivious to my ignorance.

Re: exam
The exam was well made. They were very keen on 1. the exact values of the various hit ratios 2. deadlocks. All in all I would say that the preparation for this exam is a lot more tougher than the exam itself. Performance tuning course is VAST. But I could be wrong about the exam, because frankly the exam is all blurred in my memory. I don't remember the questions , all I remember is that as soon as the paper started I found that all the v$ synonyms stopped making sense to me. Had to read the words in the questions much more carefully in this exam than in any other exam. Most of the answers are so close to being correct till you zero in on that one word in the answer which makes the answer either totally wrong or the one. Performance tuning exam , well all I can say is that I am glad that its over. Now I can actually start studying performance tuning.

Row migration can be resolved using the ANALYZE command. C. Row migration can be reduced by choosing a larger block size. D. Row migration means that row pieces are stored in different blocks. E. Queries that use an index to select migrated rows perform additional I/O. Answer: A, B Shouldn't it be a and e ? What does answer b mean when it says : row migration can be RESOLVED Whatever the meaning , analyze .. or analyze.. list chained rows would not be able to differentiate between chained or migrated rows, right ?

Re: shared server connections
Mladen, aren't you talking about connection multiplexing and not connection pooling ? Isn't pooling is supposed to carried out by the dispatchers themselves. Let me know if I should rtfm. - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 19:44 Well, to successfully use connection pooling, you need connection manager. My information is that pooling by the instance is rather buggy and slow. Here is an excerpt from the oracle documentation: Oracle Connection Manager, an Oracle Net Services component, enables multiple client network sessions to be multiplexed, or funneled, through a single network connection to a database. The session multiplexing feature reduces the demand on resources needed to maintain multiple network sessions between two processes by enabling the server to use fewer network connection endpoints for incoming requests. This enables you to increase the total number of network sessions that a server can handle. With multiple Oracle Connection Managers, thousands of concurrent users can connect to a server. Figure 1-12 shows how session multiplexing can be used in a Web architecture. When Oracle Connection Manager is run on the same computer as an application Web server, the application Web server can route multiple client sessions through Oracle Connection Manager to ensure that those sessions have continuous access to an Oracle database server. This functionality is especially useful for Web applications where session availability and response time are major concerns. -- Mladen Gogala Oracle DBA -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2003 7:25 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: shared server connections Hello list, I am using 9.2.0.1.0 enterprise edition on windows.

If this user logs off, cpu usage falls down to normal. This happens with any user who tries to use a shared server connection. No such problem if a dedicated connection is used.

Re: Hiding passwords
In ntfs you can set permissions on a file . But that wouldn't stop a member of the adminstrator group. What you need to do is to aditionally encrypt the file or folder as well. Then no one else can even list the contents of the folder, not even another administrator. In xp its as easy as right clicking the file/folder , select properties , advanced, 'encrypt contents to secure data'. Now every time you need access just double click the file/folder. Decryption is allowed only for you and occurs on the fly and transparently. But make sure you backup your certificates just in case the system crashes and you have to reinstall. You can then import your certificates and decrypt this folder. - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 18:49 In Windows2000 you can encrypt a file... Not sure how well that would work though, since if you install your software as local administrator (not good practice) then anyone else who logs in as administrator would be able to see / run the file too...

This is true. But to accomplish the same functionality, you can dynamically create a temporary .bat file that creates the environmental and then execute that bat file. Unfortunately on Windows, anything that you do can be repeated by someone else who logs onto the system. I guess you could secure a folder that only the Oracle account could see, and have these scripts placed in those folders so that the other users cannot get into them without rebooting the machine and bringing it up in DOS mode. That (I think) would prevent snooping. Not sure though. Tom Mercadante Oracle Certified Professional -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2003 6:00 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Paul, Any chance these scripts could be run from Cygwin, Uwin, MKS Toolkit, or anything that will let you use a korn shell? That would simplify things tremendously. One of the problems with Windohs is that you cannot execute a script or program so that it can return a value to a local environment variable. That ability would make this task simple from command.com. Another possibility is to put your passwords in the registry, restrict that portion of the registry, ( or the whole thing ), and use a Perl script to retrieve the passwords and kick off the other jobs. What I do in linux is use a password server ( as seen in Perl for Oracle DBA's) and retrieve the password across the network, encrypted of course. This works on windows as well, though you're there restricted to doing this strictly from within the Perl script.

shared server connections
Hello list, I am using 9.2.0.1.0 enterprise edition on windows. I have a database in shared server mode. Every time any one tries to use a shared server connection , I find that after the execution of any query the processor usage shoots up to 95-98%. I have two dispatchers configured , and whenever I specify pool=on , I see the following : As long as the shared server connection is maintained the processor usage remains high and the v$dispatcher_rate(CUR_LOOP_RATE) and v$dispatcher_rate( CUR_EVENT_RATE ) values for the concerned dispatcher go on increasing steadily even though there is only one user and he is sitting idle. If this user logs off, cpu usage falls down to normal. This happens with any user who tries to use a shared server connection. No such problem if a dedicated connection is used. If I restart the instance after setting pool=off then there is no such problem.

query rewrite system privilege

Thanks for all your help especially mladen and thomas. - Original Message - To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, September 20, 2003 00:42 Hello, The answer to your question is that the query rewrite system privilege has been deprecated in Oracle 9i. So the behavior you see is correct. I think we need to fix the documentation. Also, the user does not need special privileges to enable query rewrite in the session or for queries to get rewritten with materialized views. All privilege checks are done only when creating the materialized view (similar to an index). Regards, Shilpa Lawande.

Re: 'query rewrite' system privg
Mladen , so what you are saying is that even if a user doesn't have 'query rewrite' privg but has create materialized view privg he can create a materialized view with query rewrite enabled and sucessfully execute 'alter session set query_rewrite_enabled=true;' but even then query rewrite wouldn't be enabled for him ?

It's required to use it, not to create it. By enabling query rewrite, you enable the RDBMS to rewrite your query and use it to resolve your select, even if the view itself was not mentioned in it.

Resynchronizing the stored outline definition
Hello list , I am using Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 Enterprise edition on windows.
I get an error while trying to resynchronze a private outline after I have
edited it.
I get this error when I use the identity statement
SQL create private outline test from private test ;
create private outline test from private test
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-18004: outline already exists
However the following succeeds :
SQL exec dbms_outln_edit.refresh_private_outline ('TEST' ) ;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Any ideas why the identitiy statement fails ?

Re: alter system reset
You are correct arup The parameter originally existed as *.parameter=value After running alter system set parameter=value sid='lahiri' ; it now exists as lahiri.parameter=value So either I specify the sid name while setting the parameters or I should use the following to reset the parameters alter system reset parameter sid='*' ; Thanks - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 20:29 ALTER SYSTEM RESET applies to RACs only and you need to give the SID parameter.

Note how you used the SID in setting the value alter system set shared_pool_size=40M scope=spfile sid='lahiri' ; This properly set the value for the SID lahiri, not globally.

Re: Resynchronizing the stored outline definition
Duh,oh
Thanks
But Jared , the problem was that the FM itself told me to type :
CREATE PRIVATE OUTLINE p_ol1 FROM PRIVATE p_ol1;
Ref : Oracle 9i Database Performance Tuning Guide and Reference a96533.pdf
page 7-9 , Chapter 7 : Using Plan Stability to Preserve Execution Plans,
Section : Example of Editing Outlines
Would really appreciate your input about the ora-03113 and core dump problem
I keep getting when I use create_stored_outlines :
Suppose two users scott and hr have select any table, create any outline
privileges and select_catalog_role.
SQL conn scott/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Connected.
SQL select count (*) from scott.emp ;
COUNT(*)
--
6
SQL conn hr/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Connected.
SQL alter session set create_stored_outlines=hr;
Session altered.
SQL select count (*) from scott.emp ;
COUNT(*)
--
6
SQL create table test as select * from scott.emp ;
create table test as select * from scott.emp
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
(And I get a core dump file )
The same thing happens irrespective of the category name I use in alter
session set create_stored_outlines , even when i specify alter session set
create_stored_outlines=default;, and even when I use random values.
But when I do the following then no problems :
SQL conn hr/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Connected.
SQL alter session set create_stored_outlines=false;
Session altered.
SQL create table test as select * from scott.emp ;
Table created.
Any ideas ?
.

Killing jobs
Hello list Q1. How can a dba remove the a job scheduled by another user ? DBMS_JOB does not allow a user to touch any jobs except their own. Q2. Every time I schedule a job using dbms_job it doesn't show up properly in dba_jobs or all_jobs or user_jobs until I logoff and log on again . Let me explain : I have scheduled a job as scott on my test database 9iRelease 2 9.2.0.1.0 on windows. There is a table called Test in the scott schema . It has a single column of type date. I want to insert date into it every 30 seconds. I ran the following as scott : variable jobno number ; variable instno number ; begin select instance_number into :instno from v$instance; dbms_job.submit ( job = :jobno, what = 'insert into scott.test values( sysdate ); commit ; ', next_date = trunc (sysdate + 1/(24*60), 'MI'), interval = 'sysdate + 1 / (24*60*2)', no_parse = true, instance = :instno, force = false ) ; end ; / print jobno This completed sucessfully. at time 13:13:43 hrs Now I check user_jobs select JOB, last_date, next_date, next_sec from user_jobs where job = :jobno; JOB LAST_DATENEXT_DATE -- ----- 5 24-aug-003 13:14:00 I checked again at 13:14:30 , 13:15:00 , 13:15:30 , 13:16:00 , 13:16:30 , etc and it always says the same as above. (null value in last_date and 13:14:00 as next_date) I logout at 13:17:00 and log back in. Now when I run the query I get JOB LAST_DATENEXT_DATE -- ------ 724-aug-003 13:17:05 24-aug-003 13:17:35 and the scott.test table has a single value select * from scott.test ; 24-aug-003 13:17:05 Any ideas ? -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: [EMAIL PROTECTED] INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California-- Mailing list and web hosting services - 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: What are the restrictions in naming an Oracle SID/Database?
DB_NAME specifies a database identifier of up to 8 characters. The following characters are valid in a database name: alphanumeric characters, underscore (_), number sign (#), and dollar sign ($). No other characters are valid. Oracle removes double quotation marks before processing the database name. Therefore you cannot use double quotation marks to embed other characters in the name. The database name is case insensitive. In fact cannot use non-ASCII characters in a database name and in the create database statement. For example cannot use special characters from european \ asian character sets like characters with umlauts. - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 30, 2003 21:19 : What are the restriction in naming an Oracle SID/Database? : : 1.
