Re: alter system does not work as advertised

2003-08-28 Thread Tanel Poder
Hi!

It works in 9.2.0.4 on W2k, so it might be a bug. I've seen other
problematic parametrs as well in previous patch levels.

 Maybe somebody can enlighten me on this,

 if I do a

 alter system set session_cached_cursors=100 scope=spfile

 I get the following message back

 ERROR at line 1:
 ORA-02096: specified initialization parameter is not modifiable with
 this option

 According to the documentation, by specifying scope=spfile, then

 The change is made in the server parameter file (SPFILE) only and will
 be set on the next startup

 Going by that statement, even though the variable is not-modifiable when
 the instance is up, I should still
 be able to change the parameter, then when I shutdown/startup the
 database during the night, the NEW
 value should take.

 If I can't modify the parameter in the spfile only, whats the point of
 the command ??

 Is this a bug or a feature ??

 Thanks

 Darren

Some parameters just never make it to the data dictionary...

In 8i there supposedly is an init.ora parameter called
create_stored_outlines = true ... can't find it referenced anywhere though
in the data dictionary.

use_stored_outlines doesn't show up in the OEM parameter listings either.

Oh well.  Win some, lose some.
