Hi

I think this parameter is available from 8.1.6 where us I am in 8.1.5..Any

Raj,

It's new archiving tracing introduced in 8i.  If
you're on 8.1.6 or later you can control the level of
tracing with the LOG_ARCHIVE_TRACE parameter.

See the following docs:

Note 94055.1 Init.ora Parameter LOG_ARCHIVE_TRACE
Reference Note
Note 104405.1 ARCH tracefile messages VALIDATE,
PREPARE, INITIALIZE, SPOOL, FINISH

AFTER LOGON ON SCHEMA Trigger 8.1.6 .. HELP!

2001-05-14 Thread Arul kumar


Hi Everybody,
I am using oracle 8.1.6 db.
I want to create a trigger which fires for every new object created
in a particular schema. Basically, i want to grant privileges for
this newly created object to Roles, Users dynamically as and when
the new object created.
When i tried , the trigger got created but on creating a table
in that schema reported that " DDLs are not allowed in System
triggers except ALTERCOMPILE... " - command failed.
Is there any workaround to achieve issuing DDLs ?
Thanks.
Regards,
Arul.

Re: Oracle error -20001

2001-05-14 Thread Tim Sawmiller

Unless things have changed, 2 thru 20999 are user specified error numbers, not 
generated by Oracle.



 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/11/01 01:20PM 
Has anyone any idea what this means?

It is coming up when trying to use a procedure in a PL/SQL package to
display a web page. With some negative errors we are able to remove
them by reloading all for the application in the OAS manager but not
this one.

Searching MetaLink I come up with suggestions to patch Applications
11i or upgrade Developer 6 - neither of which are in use here. I also
came up with cause not determined.

Environment: Sun OS 5.7
 Oracle8i Enterprise Edition release 8.1.6.0.0
 OAS 4.0 - we are using a secure server

Both the package and package body are valid.

Any help in unraveling this would be greaterly appreciated.

 || you.
 ||
 || Lesse, I tried using forms 5.x on Solaris a couple of years
 || ago, and much to my dismay found that tnsnames.ora was
 || *required* in order to connect to a database.  This was
 || on a box that worked just fine with ORANAMES when
 || connecting via sqlplus or Perl.
 ||
 || Reports had the same problem.
 ||
 || I was troubleshooting some forms of the 6i variety on Solaris
 || a few months ago, and since I still had the tnsnames.ora setup
 || on that box from the previous go round with forms, I honestly
 || don't know if Forms 6i required it or not.
 ||
 || The trouble shooting was in native forms mode on Solaris 2.6,
 || though the forms were moved to another box and run in iAS,
 || which functioned just fine with ORANAMES.
 ||
 || I don't have ORANAMES setup here at home or I would try
 || and test this here.

Problem in fetching Table Info

2001-05-14 Thread Soman Manoj

Hi Gurus,

I am facing some problem while fetching data from
oracle.
I have to fetch all info like
column_name,data_type,data_length,Nullable and primary
key for particular table.
For that i had prepared 2 quiries like:
select A.column_name,A.data_type,
2   decode(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
  3  
decode(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
  4   A.data_length) as Length,
  5   A.nullable from
  6*  user_tab_columns A where table_name = 'TEST'

Which gives me info as :
COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
-- - -- -
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
FLD4   VARCHAR2  30 Y
FLD5   VARCHAR2 100 Y
FLD6   VARCHAR2  50 Y
FLD7   NUMBER22 Y 


Which is fine,but along with this i want info like
which fields are pkey for which i have one more query:

select C.column_name,B.constraint_type from
user_constraints B,user_cons_columns C
where
B.constraint_name=C.constraint_name and
B.table_name='TEST'

which gives me info as to which are pkeys in table,
But when i join these 2 quiries i get only 3 fields
which are in primary key like FLD1,FLD2,FLD3

COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
C
-- - -- -
-
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
P
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
P
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
P

whereas i want all other fields also along with that.
Output should be as :
COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
-- - -- -
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
P
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
P
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
P
FLD4   VARCHAR2  30 Y
FLD5   VARCHAR2 100 Y
FLD6   VARCHAR2  50 Y
FLD7   NUMBER22 Y 

I tried following query for this:
  1   select A.column_name,A.data_type,
  2   decode(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
  3  
decode(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
  4   A.data_length) as Length,
  5   A.nullable,B.constraint_type from
  6   user_tab_columns A,
  7   user_constraints B,
  8   user_cons_columns C
  9   where
 10   B.constraint_name=C.constraint_name and
 11   A.column_name=C.column_name(+) and
 12   A.table_name=B.table_name and
 13*  A.table_name = 'GEMS

Could any one Help me in this??

TIA
Manoj.

Re: Can I partition my primary key constraint index?

2001-05-14 Thread Cherie_Machler


Diana,

Can I build the initial local primary key index using the storage and
tablespace clause to place the index in the correct index tablespace
to begin with.  This index is multiple gigs and my database is tight
on space right now.  I'm not sure that I have enough room to put
the index in the data tablespace and then move it to the appropriate
index partition tablespaces?

Do you put each of your primary key index partitions in a separate
tablespace?

The last DBA put all of our indexes into three tablespaces
(small, medium, large) which doesn't work very well when you
go to get rid of a partition.

Thanks,

Yes, Cherie, you can.  When creating the primary key constraint, use the
USING INDEX clause to specify any storage parameters you want for the
automatically created primary key index.  I always use the clause, because
I am a picky DBA and I want my indices in their own tablespace and with
their own storage parameters.  Also, if you specify that the index is
LOCAL, the partitioning will follow the same algorithm as the table.
Unfortunately, if you do LOCAL, the index partitions will automatically be
placed in the same tablespace as the table, but you can move the
partitions if you wish.

Please respond

to ORACLE-L








Oracle will automatically create an index for your primary
key constraint.

I have a lot of large partitioned tables in my data warehouse.
All of my primary key indexes are non-partitioned.  I would
like them to be partitioned.

When I drop the constraint and re-enable it, can I specify
at that time that I want the index to be partitioned?  Or do I
need to drop my index and rebuild it to be partitioned after
the fact?

Is there any problem with having partitioned primary key indexes?

Thanks,

Cherie

RE: comp.oracle.databases.server vs ORACLE-L: deathmatch

2001-05-14 Thread Boivin, Patrice J

Funny, the threads on my MS Outlook at home never show up as threads... I
end up with little entries all over the place.  Might as well rely on
e-mail.

The volume on the newsgroup is much higher, but perhaps as a result there is
a LOT of junk going through there, a lot of spam.  Some of it is offensive,
nobody seems to be moderating that newsgroup at all.  The listserv doesn't
have that problem, the last time someone sent job offers to the members of
this list, the sender received phone calls, and a flurry of e-mails to tell
him to cease and desist.  On the newsgroup I haven't seen it happen.  Maybe
if the spam was removed from the newsgroup, I would spend more time reading
its threads.

The threads also seem to cover a broader range of topics than this listserv
does.  I prefer this list because I do database admin, and although I
subscribed to the ODTUG listserv for developers, I like to keep the two
areas separate (DBA and development).

Once in a while in the evening I access the newsgroup to see what is going
on there, but often I end up sifting through hundreds of entries, deleting
80% of them or more.

I agree that there are knowledgeable people on the newsgroup as well.  

I prefer this listserv.

Subject:comp.oracle.databases.server vs ORACLE-L: deathmatch

I have to say that the newsgroup comp.oracle.databases.server is
much
more NT Friendly.
(IOUG: Did anything happen from IOUG concerning the ORACLE-NT-L
mailing
list?)
Not just Jonathan Lewis, but Sybrand Baker, Howard Rodgers, Ricky
Sanchez put out some pretty good stuff.

I'd post to the ORACLE-L from work - but its a long story.
Basically, I'm subscribed at work in DIGEST mode, but I can't get
out of
it.
So I post when I get home from the home mail account that I can't
use
from work.

Yes, most of the newsgroup is junk, but lately, I'd say that the
signal-to-noise ratio is comperable to ORACLE-L. 
Best thing is - its threaded. Email just plain sucks. Threading
rules
(not in an OS - just in messages).

and there's (practically) no lag.

So in a deathmatch, the interested newsgroup readers/posters would
have
won the competition 2 hours before the first post was received by
all
the ORACLE-L subscribers.

just my opinion.

the attached is typical for the material I see in the newsgroup.

If you installed the Oracle Administration Assistant for Windows NT,
there is a panel that contains a radio button as to selecting the
shutdown mode ('normal','immediate','abort').

to access it select:

Start - Programs - Oracle-Ora81 - Database Administration - Oracle
Administration Assistant for Windows NT

under the 'Databases' node, right click on the particular database
and
select startup shutdown options
in the Oracle Instance panel, you have a checkbox for Shut down
instance when service is stopped
under that is the radio button set for the shutdown options.

click ok - and close the MMC console.

If you are running W2K server or Pro - MMC is included.
If you are running NT4 - you need to have installed the MMC for the
Oracle Admin Asst plug-in.

Should Archive Log File OS Size be the same?

I am testing some recovery plans, and I tried to restore a cold backup and
roll the database forward.  However, when I went to apply the 1st archive
log since the cold backup it complained about a size of the transaction and
indicated the archive log was corrupted.

When I review all the archive logs on the production system I notice the OS
size of the files are not always the exact same.  Should they be the exact
same size assuming that no one does an alter system switch logfile
command?  The archive logs are 10MB each and some appear to be off 1-4k

1. NetBackup SERVER side: create permission files to allow alternate client
restore:
File NETBACKUP PATH/db/altnames/restore client name should contain
primary backup client name
2. NetBackup CLIENT side: 
 a/ set UNIX env variable  NB_ORA_CLIENT=backup client; export
NB_ORA_CLIENT,
 b/ set ORACLE_SID to original DB SID
3. restore infrastructure (like appropriate directories, UNIX permissions,

I am 
curious to know if the NOLOGGING option would work in an update or insert

Re: Can I partition my primary key constraint index?

2001-05-14 Thread Diana_Duncan


Cherie,

Hm, good question.  I think I remember (unfortunately, this was at my
previous job, so I don't have the scripts) that in order to specify LOCAL,
you lost control of the storage parameters -- they automatically default to
the same as the table.  But it's certainly worth a try.

I created separate data and index tablespaces for each partition, which
made the dropping of a partition and it's associated space quite simple.

Diana,

Can I build the initial local primary key index using the storage and
tablespace clause to place the index in the correct index tablespace
to begin with.  This index is multiple gigs and my database is tight
on space right now.  I'm not sure that I have enough room to put
the index in the data tablespace and then move it to the appropriate
index partition tablespaces?

Do you put each of your primary key index partitions in a separate
tablespace?

The last DBA put all of our indexes into three tablespaces
(small, medium, large) which doesn't work very well when you
go to get rid of a partition.

Yes, Cherie, you can.  When creating the primary key constraint, use the
USING INDEX clause to specify any storage parameters you want for the
automatically created primary key index.  I always use the clause, because
I am a picky DBA and I want my indices in their own tablespace and with
their own storage parameters.  Also, if you specify that the index is
LOCAL, the partitioning will follow the same algorithm as the table.
Unfortunately, if you do LOCAL, the index partitions will automatically be
placed in the same tablespace as the table, but you can move the
partitions if you wish.

Hi Ora DBAs,

I am working on Oracle 8.1.6 version on SUN SOLARIS 5.6 platform.

We r using a backend procedure which first TRUNCATEs a table ( GLOBAL
TEMPORARY TABLE - created with ON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS !)
and then populates with data.

After making a connection to the database, first time when executed
reports a  DEAD LOCK   on the table and comes out. Same procedure, if
executed once again doesn't report any error. It reports the error only
for the first time after a connection is established. Why ?

I am sure there was no other user using that table at the time of
procedure execution.

Thanks in advance.

RE: Can I partition my primary key constraint index?

2001-05-14 Thread Toepke, Kevin M

Ok, I'll jump in here 'cause I may be able to simplify the issue.

Starting with Oracle 8, you can create a Primary Key that uses an existing
index. This makes the administration stuff easier. You can create your own
locally partitioned unique index (using regular CREATE INDEX syntax). 

Once the index is created, you can create the PK (ALTER TABLE x ADD
CONSTRAINT y PRIMARY KEY (z);). The existing index will be used if Oracle
can use it.

This works with partitioned tables as long as the PK index is
equipartitioned with the base table.

Re: Installing Multiple Oracle Clients

 1) What is the easiest way to do these local installations?  With the old
16-bit version of the Oracle
 client, you could do a network install, then have the workstations
reference that installation by changing
 ini files.  I don't think that the 32-bit version of the client supports
network installs.  Has anybody had
 success with response files?  What is the trick to getting them to work?
Anyway, I'm looking for an
 alternative to visiting each workstation.

I used response file for 8.1.6 on Solaris 2.6 with xterm from a windows
machine.
Works great!

1. Create home dir and get .profile etc and set environment
2. Remote mount CD
3. Install Client with .rsp
4. Scripted FTP : tnsnames.ora
5. Test connection

All through a sequence of commands. No mouse clicking. Now going to machine.
No taking out putting in CDs...

My understanding of the question was - how to install Oracle client on
multiple Windows machines.

 1) What is the easiest way to do these local installations?  With the old
16-bit version of the Oracle
 client, you could do a network install, then have the workstations
reference that installation by changing
 ini files.  I don't think that the 32-bit version of the client supports
network installs.  Has anybody had
 success with response files?  What is the trick to getting them to work?
Anyway, I'm looking for an
 alternative to visiting each workstation.

I used response file for 8.1.6 on Solaris 2.6 with xterm from a windows
machine.
Works great!

1. Create home dir and get .profile etc and set environment
2. Remote mount CD
3. Install Client with .rsp
4. Scripted FTP : tnsnames.ora
5. Test connection

All through a sequence of commands. No mouse clicking. Now going to machine.
No taking out putting in CDs...

RE: Can I partition my primary key constraint index?

2001-05-14 Thread Cherie_Machler


Kevin,

Thanks for your comments.

I already have the existing (non-partitioned) index out there.
Is there any way to convert this to a locally partitioned
index?  I see ways to split existing partitioned indexes
into additional partitions but I don't see any documentation
on changing a regular index into paritioned index.
It's quite large and cumbersome so I hate to just
drop it and recreate it.

Isn't a local index by definition equipartitioned against
the base table?  I don't have to intentionally do anything
to have that happen except place the LOCAL clause
in the CREATE INDEX command, right?

Under what cirmcumstances might Oracle not
be able to use the existing index when I add the
primary key constraint?

Thanks,

Cherie

Ok, I'll jump in here 'cause I may be able to simplify the issue.

Starting with Oracle 8, you can create a Primary Key that uses an existing
index. This makes the administration stuff easier. You can create your own
locally partitioned unique index (using regular CREATE INDEX syntax).

Once the index is created, you can create the PK (ALTER TABLE x ADD
CONSTRAINT y PRIMARY KEY (z);). The existing index will be used if Oracle
can use it.

This works with partitioned tables as long as the PK index is
equipartitioned with the base table.

Diana,

Can I build the initial local primary key index using the storage and
tablespace clause to place the index in the correct index tablespace
to begin with.  This index is multiple gigs and my database is tight
on space right now.  I'm not sure that I have enough room to put
the index in the data tablespace and then move it to the appropriate
index partition tablespaces?

Do you put each of your primary key index partitions in a separate
tablespace?

The last DBA put all of our indexes into three tablespaces
(small, medium, large) which doesn't work very well when you
go to get rid of a partition.

Thanks,

Cherie

Please respond to

ORACLE-L










Yes, Cherie, you can.  When creating the primary key constraint, use the
USING INDEX clause to specify any storage parameters you want for the
automatically created primary key index.  I always use the clause, because
I am a picky DBA and I want my indices in their own tablespace and with
their own storage parameters.  Also, if you specify that the index is
LOCAL, the partitioning will follow the same algorithm as the table.
Unfortunately, if you do LOCAL, the index partitions will automatically be
placed in the same tablespace as the table, but you can move the
partitions if you wish.

Re: Installing Multiple Oracle Clients

2001-05-14 Thread Danisment Gazi Unal (Unal Bilisim)

Hi,

It's not used by many people. But, If you have many clients, you can install client 
softwares on application server or different home on database server. do followings:

- map a server in which client softwares will be installed, such as 'L:'
- install client softwares to 'L:'
- export Oracle registry
- import registry to other clients

according to my test in previous years, Oracle just creates windows programs folders 
on client boxes which is not defined in registry. this is not important.

during connection, client software is copied to client from server. if performance is 
acceptable, you can use these configuration without installing to many clients.

Unfortunately, we have various 3rd party applications that are only certified with

client versions.
   The 8.1.6 client will be the default Oracle home, then we will install 8.0.5 and

that need the 8.0.4 or 8.0.5 version of the client.  The .bat files will change the 
PATH and ORACLE_HOME, then call the application.
   It looks like we are going to have to visit each PC to do a local install of the

for an alternative to visiting each workstation.

 2) Is there an alternative to using .bat files for referencing a different Oracle 
client?  Do many folks take the risk of using a newer version of the Oracle client 
for an application, even though that application is not certified with that version 
of the Oracle client?

 Thanks for the input.

It is possible that you can truncate these tables, but then you'll have to
recompile ALL (including SYS/SYSTEM) owned packages and user packages. Not
recommended without help from OWS ...

Here is Oracle Technical note .

Introduction:
=

The Designer/2000 User Installation Guide (UIG) describes an 'optional' step
to 
alter the storage parameters of SYS tables: IDL_UB1$ and IDL_UB2$.  
Occasionally, we take calls from customers who misunderstand why this step
is 
optional and why it is mentioned in the UIG at all.  Sometimes we also have
to
check these tables during certain installation problems, and this article is

intended to give a brief overview of what these tables are used for and how
you 
can check the current storage parameters of them.
 
Alter Table Storage Parameters 
== 
 
 alter table IDL_UB1$ pctfree 0 pctused 50
 storage (next 500K pctincrease 0);
 
 alter table IDL_UB2$ pctfree 0 pctused 50
 storage (next 500K pctincrease 0);
 
 
Overview Of Tables 
==  

These alter storage statements should reduce the amount of space being 
used to store the Designer/2000 PL/SQL packages in the SYSTEM tablespace. 
However, if the users are also going to create their own PL/SQL packages and

procedures on the database, then these storage values may have to be
reviewed 
to ensure there is sufficient space for them.  

NOTE: these tables and their corresponding views are meant for kernel
internal 
usage only and should NOT be queried by users! 
 
 
Checking Storage Values 
=== 
 
   col segment_name format a8 
   col sum(bytes)   format 99 
   col sum(blocks)  format  
   col extents  format  
   col next_extent  format  
   col max_extents  format  
   col pct_increase format 999 
 
   select   segment_name, sum(bytes), sum(blocks), 
extents, next_extent, max_extents, pct_increase 
   from dba_segments 
   wheresegment_name like 'IDL_UB%' 
   group by segment_name,extents, initial_extent, 
next_extent, max_extents, pct_increase; 
 
 
Example Output 
== 
 
SEGMENT SUM(BYTES) SUM(BLOCKS) EXTENTS NEXT_EXTENT MAX_EXTENTS PCT_INCREASE
--- -- --- --- --- ---  
IDL_UB1$ 105256960   51395  28 5242880 1210 
IDL_UB2$  26808320   13090  14 5242880 1210

OT:Tomato Story

2001-05-14 Thread dgoulet

After all of the MicroSoft bashing, this should be fun!!

 
  An unemployed man goes to apply for a job with Microsoft as a janitor. 
  The manager there arranges for him to take an 
  aptitude test (Section:Floors, sweeping and cleaning). 
  
  After the test, the manager says, You will be employed at minimum 
  wage, $5.15 an hour. Let me have your e-mail address, so that I can
  send you a form to complete and tell you where to report for work on
  your first day.  Taken aback, the man protests that he has neither a
  computer nor an e-mail address. To this the MS manager replies, 
  Well, then, that means that you virtually don't exist and can
  therefore hardly expect to be employed. 
  Stunned, the man leaves. 
  
  Not knowing where to turn and having only $10 in his wallet, he
  decides to buy a 25 lb flat of tomatoes at the supermarket. Within
  less than 2 hours, he sells all the tomatoes individually at 100% 
  profit. Repeating the process several times more that day, he ends
  up with almost $100 before going to sleep that night. And thus it 
  dawns on him that he could quite easily make a living selling
  tomatoes. Getting up early every day and going to bed late, he 
  multiplies his profits quickly. 
  
  After a short time he acquires a cart to transport several dozen boxes
  of tomatoes, only to have to trade it in again so that he can buy a
  pick-up truck to support his expanding business. By the end 
  of the second year, he is the owner of a fleet of pick-up trucks and
  manages a staff of a hundred former unemployed people, all selling 
  tomatoes. 
  
  Planning for the future of his wife and children, he decides to buy 
  some life insurance. Consulting with an insurance adviser, he picks
  an insurance plan to fit his new circumstances. At the end of the
  telephone conversation, the adviser asks him for his e-mail address
  in order to send the final documents electronically.  When the man
  replies that he has no e-mail, the adviser is stunned, What, you
  don't have e-mail? How on earth have you managed to amass 
  such wealth without the Internet, e-mail and e-commerce? Just imagine 
  where you would be now, if you had been connected to the Internet 
  from the very start! 
  
  After a moment of thought, the tomato millionaire replied, Why, of 
  course! I would be a floor cleaner at Microsoft! 
  
  Moral of this story: 
  1. The Internet, e-mail and e-commerce do not need to rule your life. 
  2. If you don't have e-mail, but work hard, you can still become a 
 millionaire. 
  3. Seeing that you got this story via e-mail, you're probably closer to 
 becoming a janitor than you are to becoming a millionaire. 
  4. If you do have a computer and e-mail, you have already been 
 taken to the cleaners by Microsoft.

It would bet that the joke was inspired by Somerset Maugham's excellent short story The Verger, featuring a man who is illiterate.

I found an online version of the Somerset Maugham short story here. In my opinion, it's well worth taking 10 minutes of your time to read.

IDL_UB1$ is one of four tables that hold compiled PL/SQL code:

IDL_UB1$
IDL_CHAR$
IDL_UB2$
IDL_SB4$

As to what is actually inside these tables, here's a related extract from the
PL/SQL docs:

PL/SQL is based on the programming language Ada. As a result, PL/SQL uses a
variant of Descriptive Intermediate Attributed Notation for Ada (DIANA), which
is a tree-structured intermediate language. It is defined using a meta-notation
called Interface Definition Language (IDL). DIANA provides for communication
internal to compilers and other tools.

At compile time, PL/SQL source code is translated into machine-readable m-code.
Both the DIANA and m-code for a procedure or package are stored in the database.
At run time, they are loaded into the shared (memory) pool. The DIANA is used to
compile dependent procedures; the m-code is simply executed.

These four tables hold the DIANA and the so-code m-code.  I think m-code is
short for machine-dependent byte code but there is a sizable
machine-indenpendent part as well.  If you have a look at sql.bsq, you can see
that Oracle documents the type column of these tables as follows:

   part  number not null,
  /* part: 0 = diana, 1 = portable pcode, 2 = machine-dependent pcode
 */

Good luck

Hi Jay,

Does anyone know what the SYS.IDL_UB1$ table is?

It suddenly grew to app. 100Meg in my Development database.  I tried
searching on it on Ixora on Friday but as soon as I did my 
computer crashed.
Now that I'm back up I decided it might be safer to post here :).

Did you recently install Dev/2000 or load up *lots* of new procedures /
packages? Not surprising this happened on a development database - AFAIK
this SYS owned table stores pieces of the source and is subject to *lots* of
chained rows...

With the alert.log you are incorrect. Oracle only get a handle on the file when it writes to it. The rest of the time, it does not need nor keep a handle on the alert.log. You can move or delete the file and neither Oracle nor the OS care. A new alert.log will be created as soon as Oracle needs to write to one.

Ron Rogers wrote:


 Team,
 Correct me if I am wrong, please.. If you delete the alert.log file with the database up and running, the oracle still thinks the file exists and writes to a non existant file that you can't see. The proper method of reducing the file size is to copy the file to a backup location, and edit the original and delete rows from the file. OR if you do not need to keep the original log for analysis you could copu /dev/null  alert.log.

 Just a house keeping note.

 Sinardy,

 First, I suggest you find some time and sit down and READ the Oracle
 documentation. Otherwise you are going to get a large number of RTFM
 emails, and some flaming as well.

 Now.. the alert log is created (if it does not already exist) or written to
 every time Oracle wants to record an event that has happened in the
 database/instance. So log switches will be in there, database shutdown and
 startup messages, errors dealing with the infrastructure of the database
 (failure to extend a rollback segment, failure to get space in the temp
 segment, disasterous database errors etc) There are other messages as well,
 I'm not going to list every one.

 Bdump contains trace files that relate to the Oracle background process --
 anything generated by smon, pmon, etc

 Udump contains trace files that relate to specific user Oracle processes

 Cdump contains core dumps, associated with one or another trace files in the
 bdump directory.

 Hello, Cherie,
Short note first - when you drop primary key the associated index will be
dropped too.
To partition the index you will create this index first and then 
alter table table name add constraint index name primary key(column
list);

Oracle will automatically create an index for your primary
key constraint.


I have a lot of large partitioned tables in my data warehouse.
All of my primary key indexes are non-partitioned. I would
like them to be partitioned.


When I drop the constraint and re-enable it, can I specify
at that time that I want the index to be partitioned? Or do I
need to drop my index and rebuild it to be partitioned after
the fact?


Is there any problem with having partitioned primary key indexes?


Thanks,

RE: Problem in fetching Table Info

2001-05-14 Thread Scott Crabtree

Manoj,
Nothing helps your sql skills like traversing the data dictionary,
put on your hip waders get out your TUSC posters, a magnifying glass, a
bottle of scotch and dive in.  Here is one way, by no means the best or the
only.  


SELECT A.column_name, A.data_type,
DECODE(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
DECODE(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
 A.data_length) as Length,
 A.nullable, min(con_p) || min(con_c) ||  min(con_r), column_id
FROM 
 user_tab_columns A, (select B.constraint_name con_name,
DECODE(B.constraint_type,'P','P',null) con_p,
DECODE(B.constraint_type,'C','C',null) con_c,
DECODE(B.constraint_type,'R','R',null) con_r,
B.table_name tname, C.Column_name col_name
FROMuser_constraints B, user_cons_columns C
WHERE   B.constraint_name = C.constraint_name
  AND B.Table_name = 'AG_PRODUCT'
  ) my_all_cons
WHERE
  A.column_name= my_all_cons.col_name (+) AND
  A.table_name = my_all_cons.tname (+) AND
  A.table_name = 'AG_PRODUCT'
  GROUP BY  A.column_name, A.data_type,
DECODE(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
DECODE(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
 A.data_length),
 A.nullable,
 column_id
   ORDER BY COLUMN_ID

If you like recursive SQL, take the table_name out of the inline view and
join my_all_cons.tname = A.table_name in the outer.  Great for watching
recursive sql for those with Unabridged Data Dictionaries  

HTH,

Hi Gurus,

I am facing some problem while fetching data from
oracle.
I have to fetch all info like
column_name,data_type,data_length,Nullable and primary
key for particular table.
For that i had prepared 2 quiries like:
select A.column_name,A.data_type,
2   decode(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
  3  
decode(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
  4   A.data_length) as Length,
  5   A.nullable from
  6*  user_tab_columns A where table_name = 'TEST'

Which gives me info as :
COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
-- - -- -
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
FLD4   VARCHAR2  30 Y
FLD5   VARCHAR2 100 Y
FLD6   VARCHAR2  50 Y
FLD7   NUMBER22 Y 


Which is fine,but along with this i want info like
which fields are pkey for which i have one more query:

select C.column_name,B.constraint_type from
user_constraints B,user_cons_columns C
where
B.constraint_name=C.constraint_name and
B.table_name='TEST'

which gives me info as to which are pkeys in table,
But when i join these 2 quiries i get only 3 fields
which are in primary key like FLD1,FLD2,FLD3

COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
C
-- - -- -
-
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
P
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
P
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
P

whereas i want all other fields also along with that.
Output should be as :
COLUMN_NAMEDATA_TYPE LENGTH N
-- - -- -
FLD1   NUMBER 5 N
P
FLD2   NUMBER 3 N
P
FLD3   VARCHAR2  10 N
P
FLD4   VARCHAR2  30 Y
FLD5   VARCHAR2 100 Y
FLD6   VARCHAR2  50 Y
FLD7   NUMBER22 Y 

I tried following query for this:
  1   select A.column_name,A.data_type,
  2   decode(A.data_type,'NUMBER',
  3  
decode(A.data_precision,NULL,A.data_length,A.data_precision),
  4   A.data_length) as Length,
  5   A.nullable,B.constraint_type from
  6   user_tab_columns A,
  7   user_constraints B,
  8   user_cons_columns C
  9   where
 10   B.constraint_name=C.constraint_name and
 11   A.column_name=C.column_name(+) and

When using sqlplus to do the select you are most probably using the privileges
that have been assigned to you in a role. Privileges assigned to
a user through a role are not used (or applied) inside PL/SQL blocks (procedures/functions).
You need to have the appropriate privilege explicitly granted to the user
who is executing the procedure/function. In your case you will need
to explicitly grant select on the v$session view (or base table, sys.v_$session)
to the user account that is executing the procedure.

RE: strange problem

2001-05-14 Thread Deshpande, Kirti

Hi Narender,
 You will need to grant explicit select privilege to the user id for
accessing the underlying view sys.v_$session to be able to do this in a
PL/SQL procedure. The id may have access to the v$session via a role. And
that would not work in a PL/SQL procedure.

HTH..

Re: Mean/Median

2001-05-14 Thread Pat Hildebrand


 
 Any scripts (sql or pl/sql) out there to compute various statistical things
 in Oracle?
 

Would depend on just what you are looking for. A quick look at
Oracle's SQL functions showed avg, st. deviation, and variance
although no median but that should be easier to write than some of the
others.

Unknown Oracle user

2001-05-14 Thread Louis Avrami

Hello all,

I was scanning through several Oracle 8.1.7 databases that I inherited
recently, and noticed that there was a user ID by the name of RAO in
each of the databases, with DBA privileges.

For some reason, I recall seeing somewhere that this user is created
when installing a particular product.  Does this sound familiar to
anyone?

Thanks,
Lou Avrami

Multi-platform Editors - Was: Unix

2001-05-14 Thread Oweson Flynn

Hi Roland,

(DISCLAIMER - I have no interest in Pacemaker software, other than that Paul
has a good product)

I use an editor called CRiSP extensively - it is a GUI-based version of a
character based editor called Brief (from Underware), that got bought by
Borland (remember them ...).

It runs under Windows, Unix, Linux
It has lots and lots of features (including the ability to FTP a file from a
UNIX server, allow you to edit it locally, and then FTP it back, if you
really want to). But you could also edit the file directly on the server if
you wanted to.

It is also the only editor that I know that will allow you to highlight a
COLUMN, and then do regular expression changes on the column.  Unlimited
Undo's, file compares, extensible etc. etc.

Colouration of reserved words (including SQL) - very configurable -.
Pricing is extremely good as well (GBP 150.00 for Win/Nt), and he is
constantly working to improve it.  You can also buy locked or Floating
licenses.

Works well with your favourite complier to become an IDE (allows you to
compile from within the editor, picks up the output and displays the errors
and highlights the offending lines)

Go to www.pacemaker.co.uk and have a look - you can also download an
evaluation copy there.

Regards
Oweson Flynn
