Re: MTS IS CONFIGURED BUT STILL DEDICATED CONNECTIONS USED
Probably your clients or the users have in their sqlnet.ora the parameter use_dedicated_server=TRUE or in the entry of the tnsnames.ora a clause like (SERVER=DEDICATED). Also issue an netstat to see if everything is alright. If you find any problem with the ports of the dispatchers, try forcing them in the parameter mts_dispatcher.

OT: Micsoft Technically Correct
A helicopter was flying around above Seattle when an electrical malfunction disabled all of the aircraft's electronic navigation and communications equipment. Due to the clouds and haze, the pilot could not determine the helicopter's position. The pilot saw a tall building, flew toward it, circled, and held up a handwritten sign that said 'WHERE AM I?' in large letters. People in the tall building quickly responded to the aircraft, drew a large sign, and held it in a building window. Their sign said 'YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER.' The pilot smiled, waved, looked at his map, determined the course to steer to SEATAC airport, and landed safely. After they were on the ground, the copilot asked the pilot how he had done it.

Re: 4 drives, 2 controller ( 3 drives on the SAME controller
Rahul You may need to rebuild the system completely depending on what is currently on those disks. On the other hand if you are using something similar to the HP Logical Volume Manger then you may be able to drop that volume out with out deleting the contents and when you reboot the system and run the tool it will recognize that there is a valid filesystem on that disk and simply create the necessary files and make the data available.

Re: OT, WOW really early
Depends on if it's a user-defined exception or not. : ) Seriously, I presented for the first time at IOUG-A 2001. I submitted a topic by the deadline date, which contained a brief ( 250 words, I believe) synopsis of what I wanted to speak about. The accept/reject decision is made from that information. After that, I was given a deadline to submit a white paper on the topic, and another topic to submit a Powerpoint presentation. The conference was in April, and I believe that the paper deadline was in Jan., and the ppt deadline was in March. Overall, I had a great time. I'm probably going to try and do it again. All the details should be available somewhere on http://www.ioug.org. Brian Christopher Spence wrote: What is required to submit a paper/presentation to IOUGA and get excepted.

UNIX SCRIPT ISSUE - URGENT
I need to extract the first 16 bytes of a filename (AIX 4.3) which consists of an IP address (nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn), and move that to first 16 positions in the file itself, plus adding a pipe (|) sign for a delimiter, and save the IP address as a file name with a .dat extension, before loading the contents into a table. My predecessor concocted the following: #!/usr/bin/ksh FN=$1 IP=`echo $FN|cut -c1-16` sed s/Report by Hosts/$IP| Report by Hosts/ $FN newfile.dat #-- End of file which is great for a single file at a time. Right now I have to perform this surgery on 19 986 files, which is in one place. Using the script above would take me over 20 000 hours. Any way I can grab the files one at the time based on a ls command, and invoke the script, and to end up when the last file has been processed. ALTERNATIVE: Each file contains the IP address which has to move into the first position after a string on line 13 which you guessed it: is called 'IP Address:'. Is their a way vi could be used to achieve the same result? Any input would be appreciated, Johan Muller __ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!

RE: Data load options
Title: RE: Data load options Hi Sean, Others have given you different options. Here's some considerations: 1. SQL Script. Can be SLOW May require intermittent commits in your script Manual and error prone Must go through SQL engine 2. SQL Loader Can be very fast (direct - bypassing SQL engine). Direct path load will invalidate indexes. You can keep track of rejected records easily (.bad file) Dependent upon your file format being EXACT, no errors. 3. Import Requires minimal manual fiddling Can be very slow - I once imported 150GB and it took ~3 days Does not seamlessly handle all object types (INtermedia (domain) indexes is one example) Restarting an import will take a lot longer. If your import fails, be sure and truncate/drop all tables before starting again. Have the option of not including indexes (INDEXES=N) Can also reset your storage parms prior to import (export with data=n, edit file [SSSHHH] and enter new storage parms / import, export with data=y, import data with IGNORE=Y) I'm sure others will have additional considerations to share.

RE: OT, WOW really early
to submit a paper, you just need an idea, a title and an abstract. The abstract needs to be somewhat catchy, the idea should be relevant and something that might interest attendees (anything on version 6, Oracle7 or Oracle8 is not a good idea G). To be accepted (to be excepted would be to be left out or excluded, you can do THAT by not submitting an abstract) -- when you learn the secret please tell me. I believe that the selection is not blind -- in that the selection committee members know the name of the presenter for the abstracts they read. So speakers who have presented before and gotten good ratings will be most likely to be asked back. But there are always new speakers each year as well. Some people (like Gaja) are in the you have been accepted, now what are you presenting category, in that they are KNOWN to be excellent speakers who draw standing room only crowds in the largest rooms.

RE: Need SQL Example
Ethan, Is it possible for you to use your function instead of decode? I guess that way you can evaluate situations wherein decode would not work. That way you could have it work on older versions of Oracle.

Re[2]: Information about User-defined Locks
Jon, User defined locks do not lock anything, except a very small chunk of the SGA, part of the shared pool. Now the question is: is the procedure hanging while holding the UL or while trying to acquire the UL? A UL must be acquired by using the DBMS_LOCK package, namely the ALLOCATE_UNIQUE and REQUEST procedure/functions. Therefore there must be a snippet of code like the following somewhere in the procedure: BEGIN DBMS_LOCK.ALLOCATE_UNIQUE(:server_lock_name, :server_lock_handle); :server_lock_allocate := DBMS_LOCK.REQUEST (:server_lock_handle, DBMS_LOCK.X_MODE,1, FALSE); END; If you can find the lock request code, look around to see if there is a DBMS_LOCK.CONVERT statement afterwards, which could cause the problem, or what other objects is the procedure trying to get at that may have been locked from elsewhere. Dick Goulet PS: You may find that the amount of time the REQUEST function is set to is 'infinity' namely 86400 seconds which is the default. If so put something reasonable in there and then check the status returned. In the example the amount of time I'll wait is 1 second. Now IF I get the lock the :server_lock_allocate = 0, else it = 1.

Re: Data load options
My experience with getting data into Oracle on an NT platform. If a small number of rows are being inserted or updated, use an application or SQL script. If the data already exists in some form outside of Oracle, transform the data into some form of a flat file and use SQL*Loader. If the data already exists in another Oracle database, export it and import it into your database (gotta be careful about tablespaces, schemas and not messing up existing data but that goes with the territory). Other methods include loading it into Access or some other MS product and using an ODBC connection to update Oracle. I've seen that used for everything from single row updates to medium sized (10M) bulk loads.

RE: RE: Data Modeling opinion? Help?
Chris, I don't think anyone is disagreeing with your evaluation of what SHOULD be done (emphasis on purpose). But, you have to deal with the people and politics of the client. As I said before, it sounds like something else is going on in the organization, and someone decided to pull and end-around on you for some reason. I would personally be more concerned about why they felt that they had to do this to get their way. Check your back, and make some friends (and maybe, learn the art of compromise? :) ) Tom Mercadante Oracle Certified Professional -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2001 2:40 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hmmm...when the spec is changed because of some business requirement then that's fine. But when it's changed because your own designers cant argue the design on technical merit then what? A spec should quote all the business rules, and some high level details about the overall architecture of the system. But the spec shouldn't tell you that you will have these two specific tables in the database, with these specific fields, etc. In the end the contractor is ultimately responsible for the validity and performance of the system that they deliver. The contractor will never be able to point back to some disclaimer and say We told you so. It will be next to impossible to point to the disclaimer when you start slipping the schedule or when the performance is not quite there. -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2001 1:09 PM To: Grabowy; Chris; Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Chris, True, except when I as the customer change the specs.

Re: UNIX SCRIPT ISSUE - URGENT
Since you have so many files, you are likely to hit problems with the line length of the various shells. Assuming that all of the files are in the directory /usr/myfiles and that the script mentioned below is named cvtip, is executable and is in /usr/local/bin (or some other directory in the path), you could do the following: $ cd /usr/myfiles $ find . -type f -print | xargs cvtip and that would do exactly what you want IF you modify the scipt as follows (this processes multiple files at the same invocation of the script): #!/usr/bin/ksh for FN do IP=`echo $FN|cut -c1-16` mv $FN ${FN}.old sed s/Report by Hosts/$IP| Report by Hosts/ ${FN}.old $FN done This modification processes multiple filenames on the command line. It also assumes that the file exists in the current directory (which I don't like, but which I don't want to work around right now). It first renames the file by tacking .old on the filename, then converts it as the previous script did and sends the output to the original filename (i.e., without the .old on the end) Hope this helps, larry On Wed, 25 Jul 2001 06:26:12 -0800 Johan Muller [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I need to extract the first 16 bytes of a filename (AIX 4.3) which consists of an IP address (nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn), and move that to first 16 positions in the file itself, plus adding a pipe (|) sign for a delimiter, and save the IP address as a file name with a .dat extension, before loading the contents into a table.

Re:RE: Data load options
Lisa, SQL*Loader in direct path can cause you storage problems since it always appends to the table(s) ignoring blocks on the free block list. I found that out after a developer was using it for our data warehouse. At the end of a year he had burned almost 100GB of disk it kept increasing even though he was trying to keep only a rolling 180 window. On a hunch we exported the data, truncated the table imported the data back in. The amount of tablespace being used dropped 50%. Dick Goulet Reply Separator Author: Koivu; Lisa [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 7/25/2001 6:26 AM Hi Sean, Others have given you different options. Here's some considerations: 1. SQL Script. * Can be SLOW * May require intermittent commits in your script * Manual and error prone * Must go through SQL engine 2. SQL Loader * Can be very fast (direct - bypassing SQL engine). * Direct path load will invalidate indexes. * You can keep track of rejected records easily (.bad file) * Dependent upon your file format being EXACT, no errors. 3. Import * Requires minimal manual fiddling * Can be very slow - I once imported 150GB and it took ~3 days * Does not seamlessly handle all object types (INtermedia (domain) indexes is one example) * Restarting an import will take a lot longer. If your import fails, be sure and truncate/drop all tables before starting again. * Have the option of not including indexes (INDEXES=N) * Can also reset your storage parms prior to import (export with data=n, edit file [SSSHHH] and enter new storage parms / import, export with data=y, import data with IGNORE=Y) I'm sure others will have additional considerations to share.

A simple awk script to take the first 16 characters of the output of ls and put it into a data file follows: gawk 'BEGIN { while (ls | getline) print substr($1,1,16) | Report by Hosts}' new.dat Defry - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2001 10:26 AM I need to extract the first 16 bytes of a filename (AIX 4.3) which consists of an IP address (nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn), and move that to first 16 positions in the file itself, plus adding a pipe (|) sign for a delimiter, and save the IP address as a file name with a .dat extension, before loading the contents into a table. My predecessor concocted the following: #!/usr/bin/ksh FN=$1 IP=`echo $FN|cut -c1-16` sed s/Report by Hosts/$IP| Report by Hosts/ $FN newfile.dat #-- End of file which is great for a single file at a time. Right now I have to perform this surgery on 19 986 files, which is in one place. Using the script above would take me over 20 000 hours. Any way I can grab the files one at the time based on a ls command, and invoke the script, and to end up when the last file has been processed. ALTERNATIVE: Each file contains the IP address which has to move into the first position after a string on line 13 which you guessed it: is called 'IP Address:'.

Tuning question - Why did this index help so much?
The other week a new production process was running much more slowly than anticipated. A file needed to be sent out by 6:00pm and at the rate the table was being populated it wouldn't complete until around 9:30pm. The production people and developers came to me for help and I saw that the SQL Explain Plan that was usually being executed (this would run a few million times) was something like select a.col1,a.col2,a.col3,b.col2 from a, b where a.col4=b.col1 and a.col5=:b1 nested loops table a index a1 (unique) table b index b1 (range) This looked pretty good, but it occurred to me that only one column was being selected from table b, so if I added a index (b2) that combined col1 and col2 to table b then it wouldn't be necessary to read table b at all, all the information would be in index b2. This resulted in a plan of: nested loops table a index a1 (unique) index b1 (range) I did so on the fly (this was only a 4,000 row table so it took almost no time to create the index). I anticipated that it would cut about 25% off the processing time (only 3/4 as many block reads). Instead it cut about 75% off the processing time causing it to finish at 5:45 (I was a hero to the developers and production people, but had to warn them not to tell their management about it since I could get in trouble for not following the Change Control Process). My question is, where did the additional 50% efficiency come from? What am I missing? I'm glad it worked so well, but would like to understand why... -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Miller, Jay INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists 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: Sun cluster vs Veritas cluster
We're using Sun Cluster 2.2 and a mix of VCS implementations, all on Solaris -- 2.6, 2.7 and 8. It seems likely our HP Service Guard will also migrate to VCS as well.

RE: Rollback Segment Question
Kamel, Looks like you may have had multiple transactions in your PL/SQL prg. Since one transaction ended, the slot used by it to store undo information was reused by other transactions. Your query did not find the required undo information and thus Snapshot too old error. Had this been a long running transaction then more extents would have been automatically allocated. My best guess is that you were updating the table that you were querying. Its best in a situation like that to(if possible) avoid reading from the table that you are updating, else do what you did, i.e. pre-allocate extents.

In the v_$rollstat view I got : extents=2, rssize ~ 2 M, hwmsize ~ 2 M. I recreated the RBS with minextents 100, at this time my program run succefully.

Looking for a tool
Dear friends ! I'm desperately looking for a reporting tool with the following characteristics. It should be able to deploy various types of charts (Bar, Column, Line, Pie etc.) to a web environment. It should be able to extract its raw data from an Oracle (or other) RDBMS , using SQL. It should have some kind of a graph design tools, so new reports could be easily deployed through the help of report templates. Different filters should be applied to a report (i.e.: Specific ISP on specific date range). Aggregation reports should be available (Could be done by SQL aggregation). It should support displaying the data as both graph and tables. It should be platform independent (i.e. Could run on NT, Win2000, Solaris). The component should be database independent (Should be able to extract data from RDBMS like Oracle, DB2, MS-SQL). The component should be able to run from Tomcat/Apache as well as Macromedia JRun and BEA Weblogic. The component could be integrated and called from a web system Preferably, the component could have a Java API. I have tried to search all the known serach engines with no results. Please advice !

Re: Tuning question - Why did this index help so much?
it's possible that the index was small enough to stay cached in the SGA? From: Miller, Jay [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Tuning question - Why did this index help so much? Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2001 08:31:28 -0800 The other week a new production process was running much more slowly than anticipated. A file needed to be sent out by 6:00pm and at the rate the table was being populated it wouldn't complete until around 9:30pm. The production people and developers came to me for help and I saw that the SQL Explain Plan that was usually being executed (this would run a few million times) was something like select a.col1,a.col2,a.col3,b.col2 from a, b where a.col4=b.col1 and a.col5=:b1 nested loops table a index a1 (unique) table b index b1 (range) This looked pretty good, but it occurred to me that only one column was being selected from table b, so if I added a index (b2) that combined col1 and col2 to table b then it wouldn't be necessary to read table b at all, all the information would be in index b2. This resulted in a plan of: nested loops table a index a1 (unique) index b1 (range) I did so on the fly (this was only a 4,000 row table so it took almost no time to create the index). I anticipated that it would cut about 25% off the processing time (only 3/4 as many block reads). Instead it cut about 75% off the processing time causing it to finish at 5:45 (I was a hero to the developers and production people, but had to warn them not to tell their management about it since I could get in trouble for not following the Change Control Process). My question is, where did the additional 50% efficiency come from? What am I missing?

At the end of a year he had burned almost 100GB of disk it kept increasing even though he was trying to keep only a rolling 180 window.

RE: Tuning question - Why did this index help so much?
Kirti made a similar suggestion. But I had done a select count(*) on the table so that all the table rows would be loaded into memory. I suppose that the index blocks might not have been, but even there the likelihood that any given one of the million plus reads wouldn't find one of the 4,000 rows in memory seems rather small. Hmm, is it possible to Cache an index? I just tried an ALTER INDEX xxx CACHE; command and it didn't work.

In both systems, we've had problems where the cluster was in an unknown state and any action to change the state was risky to all the services in the cluster. This is rare for both products.

The tests were interesting, but we could conduct the tests without their involvement. Command-line jocks may at first prefer Sun, but I think Veritas is a better bet since it's not as tied to the hardware vendor, and is more likely to be common across Unixes, if you're in a site where you've got more than one Unix vendor's stuff to support, like I am.

Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2001 08:31:28 -0800 The other week a new production process was running much more slowly than anticipated. A file needed to be sent out by 6:00pm and at the rate the table was being populated it wouldn't complete until around 9:30pm. The production people and developers came to me for help and I saw that the SQL Explain Plan that was usually being executed (this would run a few million times) was something like select a.col1,a.col2,a.col3,b.col2 from a, b where a.col4=b.col1 and a.col5=:b1 nested loops table a index a1 (unique) table b index b1 (range) This looked pretty good, but it occurred to me that only one column was being selected from table b, so if I added a index (b2) that combined col1 and col2 to table b then it wouldn't be necessary to read table b at all, all the information would be in index b2. This resulted in a plan of: nested loops table a index a1 (unique) index b1 (range) I did so on the fly (this was only a 4,000 row table so it took almost no time to create the index). I anticipated that it would cut about 25% off the processing time (only 3/4 as many block reads). Instead it cut about 75% off the processing time causing it to finish at 5:45 (I was a hero to the developers and production people, but had to warn them not to tell their management about it since I could get in trouble for not following the Change Control Process). My question is, where did the additional 50% efficiency come from? What am I missing?

At the end of a year he had burned almost 100GB of disk it kept increasing even though he was trying to keep only a rolling 180 window.

SQL Script. * Can be SLOW * May require intermittent commits in your script * Manual and error prone * Must go through SQL engine 2. SQL Loader * Can be very fast (direct - bypassing SQL engine). * Direct path load will invalidate indexes. * You can keep track of rejected records easily (.bad file) * Dependent upon your file format being EXACT, no errors. 3. Import * Requires minimal manual fiddling * Can be very slow - I once imported 150GB and it took ~3 days * Does not seamlessly handle all object types (INtermedia (domain) indexes is one example) * Restarting an import will take a lot longer. If your import fails, be sure and truncate/drop all tables before starting again. * Have the option of not including indexes (INDEXES=N) * Can also reset your storage parms prior to import (export with data=n, edit file [SSSHHH] and enter new storage parms / import, export with data=y, import data with IGNORE=Y) I'm sure others will have additional considerations to share.
