RE: Retrieving Sets of Record via VB

Use the ADO Reordset Object PageSize Property to logically divide the
Recordset object into a series of pages,
Each of which has the number of records equal to PageSize (except for the
last page which might have fewer records).

 All,

 My current application is written in VB accessing the Oracle back-end.  
 I have just been asked about how to execute a query that may return 
 many thousands of rows, but only display, let's say, 1000 at a time.  
 After the first set of rows was returned, the user would click a 
 button and request the next thousand.

 We are currently using reference cursors and everything is working 
 well.
I
 was wondering if anyone has done something like this, and how did you 
 do
it?
 I could see using an inline view and re-executing the query every time 
 and selecting the range of records to return.  Storing the result set 
 in a temporary/rollup table might also work.  I obviously would need 
 to clear this table out every night.

 Any other ideas?

 thanks

RE: ORA-2289 - anyone?

From SQL*PLUS:

select sequence_name from dba_sequences;

Do the sequence names tt1462788_work_item_srl, tt1462788_tmp_asn_ship_srl,
etc. show up in the list?

Log in to SQL*PLUS using the same account that the biora8x.cpp app uses to
run SQL statements.
Are you able to create and drop sequences using that account?
Are you able to drop and recreate the tt1462788_work_item_srl sequence from
that account in SQL*PLUS?

From what I can see so far it is probably a problem with privileges.

Hi all,

I'm new at this game and am running into this Oracle error in our training

I have searched on the web and the archives but I am not sure about a
resolution to this issue. Any comments/insights would be appreciated.

After investigating the issue, I found that there is a crash when trying to
insert into temporary tables tmp_asn_ship,tmp_asn_ord and other temporary
tables. 

Here are the errors:

RE: ORA-1410 Silliness

2003-01-02 Thread Sherman, Edward
Title: Message




I found this in the Oracle Concepts 
manual.
Since your table is partitioned I thought it might be 
worth a look.


Queries and 
Partition Maintenance Operations
Queries whose execution starts before invocation of a partition 
maintenance operation, or before dictionary updates are done during a partition 
maintenance operation, correctly access via Consistent Read the data of the 
affected partitions as existing at query snapshot time. Such queries either 
successfully complete returning all relevant data as present at snapshot time, 
or fail to complete returning error ORA-8103 or ORA-1410. The application should reissue the query if 
one of these errors is returned. 
Queries that use a partitioned index, and that start with some of 
the index partitions marked as INDEX UNUSABLE, return an error when they 
actually access one of these partitions for the first time. This happens even if 
the partition has been made USABLE after query start.

Good 
luck

We have started using the NT/MS2000 Task Scheduler instead of the 'AT'
command to schedule jobs. I am concerned that if we lose the server we would
lose the schedule and have to figure out how and When all the batch jobs
were scheduled.

Does anyone know a way to script or otherwise document jobs defined to the
Task Scheduler?

A week or so ago I posted WRT having problems printing a report directly to
a printer from 9iAS R2.
I've been battling Oracle ever since to get this BUG resolved.
AFAIK, the bug exists for at least Solaris, AIX  HP.
Since I only have been working with Solaris for the last 6+ years, I might
benefit from those
who have more current knowledge on other variation of Unix.
One of Oracle scripts builds the actual command line using either the lp
or the lpr command.
What is now being constructed for my system includes -#1; which according
to the comments
in the scripts supposed to be the number of copies of the report to be
printed.
Is this a valid command line qualifier for any Unix supporting Oracle?

RE: anydata datatype update help

2002-10-04 Thread Sherman, Edward

I don't know squat about the ANYDATA type but I wonder if there is a
restriction that you can only update an ANYDATA column with a new value of
the same type. For example, if you initially put a '101' VARCHAR2 into the
ANYDATA column and then attempted to update it to 102, where 102 is a NUMBER
datatype it might fail whereas if you tried to update it to '102', where 102
is a VARCHAR2 then it might work.

Could this be causing your dilemma?

I notice there is a GETTYPENAME member function that will return the type
name of AnyData:

MEMBER FUNCTION GetTypeName(
   self IN AnyData)
   RETURN   VARCHAR2;

The function will return NUMBER, etc. (the type stored in the ANYDATA
record)
This would let you know what type is stored in the ANYDATA column for a
particular row and you could
Make sure your updating with the same type. Maybe do an explicit type
conversion of the new value before using it with UPDATE.

Just a shot in the dark.

Rachel,

  First time I hear about the ANYDATA type but I like to share my ignorance
and I guess it must be something akin to a C 'void *' - ie a pointer to
'something'. To bind properly, Oracle needs two things :
a) a pointer to the start of the memory area
b) something to tell how big this memory area is. Either it's a 'well known'
type, or you must use an end marker (typically, a '0' with character
strings), or you must explicitly give a size.

IMHO Oracle blows up because b) is missing. If you can insert, there must be
some way of telling it how large the variable is. I can't see why it would
be specific to an update (except if the PL/SQL engine is buggy, which
obviously it is, but even more so than appears to the eye). Are you sure
that there is not some obscure new function ... ?

the subject line pretty much describes it.

9.2.0.1, Solaris 2.8

We are using the ANYDATA datatype and while we have
no problems with
insert or select or delete, the process blows up
(ora-7445, coredump)
when we try to update the ANYDATA column. Within a
PL/SQL process,
using aliased tablenames and bind variables for all
values:

UPDATE   MI.T_IN03_ObjPrpty
 SET  IN03_Value_AD = :b7
 ,IN03_Seq_NO = :b6
 ,RF01_Publisher_KY = :b5
 ,IN03_Amend_DT = :b4
 ,RF02_Status_KY = :b3
 ,IN03_Status_DT = :b2
 WHEREIN03_ObjPrpty_KY = :b1

IN03_Value_AD is the ANYDATA column. Statement
works fine if we remove
that column. Statement blows up if we remove all
OTHER columns or if we
run it as is.

We've posted an iTAR and are waiting. I've searched
MetaLink and the
docs. Nothing useful.

But the search of the docs left me with a suspicion
that you can't
update an ANYDATA column.

Has anyone either successfully updated an ANYDATA
column or found
documentation somewhere that says you can't?

this is stopping development on a critical system.
I'm not the primary
DBA on it, but the consultant DBA doesn't have
access to MetaLink and
isn't on this list so I'm helping out.

Suggestions?  Worst case I suppose we could delete
the original row and
insert the new one but that's kludgy and messy and
an additional
performance hit on a system that needs to fly like
the wind. I'd
rather fix this properly... of course Oracle is
capable of saying that
the delete and insert IS the workaround and/or
standard procedure for
this.

If the number of 'redo log space requests' is much over zero then I should
increase the LOG_BUFFER size in my init.ora, at least that is what I get
from RTFM.  One question I have is that does the size of the LOG_BUFFER
parameter have to be a multiple of the DB_BLOCK_SIZE parameter?  I vaguely

RE: Cloning Problems

2002-07-29 Thread Sherman, Edward

Ethan,

Your first line of the trace file is the same as mine when I clone from cold
backups.
I also always do clean shutdown normal before cold backup but I think you
should be okay with shutdown immediate too (IMHO). I think if you are
renaming the cloned database then the RESETLOGS option is required.

You said the database was shut down IMMEDIATE and you had no control over
this.

Did someone else shutdown and do the backup for you?

Don't forget to check the obvious.
Are you sure the backup was completely closed (not rolling back) before the
backup began? (You're used to hot files)
Are you sure the database was not restarted before the backup completed?
Are you sure you copied ALL files to your cloned database? (I copy
everything, then delete control files, then create controlfiles)
Take a quick check on the timestamps on the files you backed up. See if
there are any time differences that jump out at you.

Good luck,
Ed

Yeah, went through the standard cloning process.  My first line of trace
file looked like this...


CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE DM8 RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG

I am wondering if I should have stated NORESETLOGS here instead, that way
the data in the redo logs would be available and then the cloned instance
could have performed instance recovery.  I have always used the method above
and never had any problems but that is likely because I have always done a
SHUTDOWN NORMAL instead of SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE.  While the SHUTDOWN immediate
performs a checkpoint it looks like there can still be stuff out there in
the logs that will require instance recovery.  Since I did a RESETLOGS I am
guessing this necessary info is missing.  Wondering if everything will be OK
if I try to find another way to get the clone opened, like setting the
hidden allow corrupt logs parameter.

RE: Cloning Problems

2002-07-29 Thread Sherman, Edward

I was looking in the docs :-)

In Recovery Manager Users Guide and Reference they have a script to shut
down the database for cold backup using RMAN.

It starts out something like this:


# Shut down the database cleanly using immediate priority. This type of
shutdown lets  
# current calls to the database complete, but prevents further logons or
calls. 
# If the database is not up now, you will get a message saying so but RMAN
will not 
# treat this situation as an error.
  
shutdown immediate; 
  
# Start up the database in case it crashed or was not shutdown cleanly prior
to
# starting this script. This will perform a crash recovery if it is needed.
Oracle   
# uses the default INIT.ORA file. Alternatively, use this form:  startup
force dba
# pfile=filename. Use the DBA option because you are going to shut down
again right
# away and do not want to let users in during the short interval. Use the
FORCE 
# option because it cannot hurt and might help in certain situations. 
  
startup force dba; 
shutdown immediate; 
  
# Here, we know that the database is cleanly closed and is now ready for a
cold
# backup. RMAN requires that the database be started and mounted to perform
a backup,
# so do that now. 



http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/server.817/
a76990/usingrma.htm#435660

You'll need to use your OTN account to see the page.

Also in the Glossary they define:

clean shutdown:

A database shut down with the IMMEDIATE, TRANSACTIONAL, or NORMAL options of
the SHUTDOWN command. A database shut down cleanly does not require
recovery; it is already in a consistent state.

Ethan,

Your first line of the trace file is the same as mine when I clone from cold
backups. I also always do clean shutdown normal before cold backup but I
think you should be okay with shutdown immediate too (IMHO). I think if you
are renaming the cloned database then the RESETLOGS option is required.

You said the database was shut down IMMEDIATE and you had no control over
this.

Did someone else shutdown and do the backup for you?

Don't forget to check the obvious.
Are you sure the backup was completely closed (not rolling back) before the
backup began? (You're used to hot files) Are you sure the database was not
restarted before the backup completed? Are you sure you copied ALL files to
your cloned database? (I copy everything, then delete control files, then
create controlfiles) Take a quick check on the timestamps on the files you
backed up. See if there are any time differences that jump out at you.

Good luck,
Ed

Yeah, went through the standard cloning process.  My first line of trace
file looked like this...


CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE DM8 RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG

I am wondering if I should have stated NORESETLOGS here instead, that way
the data in the redo logs would be available and then the cloned instance
could have performed instance recovery.  I have always used the method above
and never had any problems but that is likely because I have always done a
SHUTDOWN NORMAL instead of SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE.  While the SHUTDOWN immediate
performs a checkpoint it looks like there can still be stuff out there in
the logs that will require instance recovery.  Since I did a RESETLOGS I am
guessing this necessary info is missing.  Wondering if everything will be OK
if I try to find another way to get the clone opened, like setting the
hidden allow corrupt logs parameter.

So _that's_ what OPP stands for!

I registered online at http://www.2test.com
I just put the promotion code in the little text box.

Don't have to talk to anyone that way or answer questions.

If its your first time online you might have to go through an annoying

OPP worked for me. Haven't gotten my credit card bill yet though :-)

RE: DOS Script for pop up question ?

2002-07-12 Thread Sherman, Edward

I'm not a windows guy but I think you should quit writing DOS batch files
and use VBScript instead.

I think if you look in any windows magazine you will see VBScript listings
instead of batch file listings.

VBScript is powerful like Perl and handles pop up windows well.

VBScript doesn't seem to email very well, however, because an earlier post I
sent contained a simple VBScript demo in the body of the email and it got
bounced from ORACLE-L because it contained a virus signature.


So here's a link to some simple code you can try:
http://www.devguru.com/Technologies/wsh/quickref/wshshell_Popup.html

Save the code to a file with a .vbs extension and click the resulting icon.

You can get a book or search the web for code snippets like I do.

Have fun!
Ed

RE: download leads to sales call

2002-07-08 Thread Sherman, Edward

I never got a call for downloading Oracle 9i but they called me for
downloading Developer 6i and they even called me for downloading an ODBC
driver.

These calls came after about 6 weeks after downloading the products.

They wanted to know what I was doing with Developer 6i and I told them I was
just messing around with it and we use VB for everything here (which is
true).

They called about the ODBC driver to ask if it worked (it didn't) and I told
them I didn't like the fact that I had to invoke Oracle Universal Installer
to get the driver installed and the dang thing didn't work. I told them we
have an M$ ODBC driver that installs more easily and it works and we're
using that. Then they asked me what version of Oracle I'm using and was I
planning to go to 9i (I think this is unrelated to the 9i download because
the download was so long ago). I told them not yet and they asked if I would
like someone to call me to help with the ODBC driver. I told them okay but
nobody ever called to help. Still using the M$ ODBC here.

By the way, the Oracle 9i download was for OCP upgrade, which I really
should start working on... tomorrow... heh!

HASH_VALUE in v$sqltext is signed whereas HASH_VALUE in v$sqlarea is

RE: How to move 200 GB db from prod to dev?

2002-06-06 Thread Sherman, Edward

I have a similar situation and here's how I  deal with it.
 
(I'm assuming your datafiles have the same name but the pathname is
different)
 
Production: SID = PROD = e.g.
/zbackup/array3/oracle8/dbs73/PROD/wds01.data.dbf
Development: SID = WDSU = e.g. /extdisk/oracle8/dbs73/PROD/wds01.data.dbf
 
In SQL*PLUS: 
 
SQL ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE;
 
Locate the trace file and copy it to the development machine.
 
Move data with a script similar to this:
 
 
rcp -rp /zbackup/oracle1/dbs73/PROD/* george:/extdisk/oracle1/dbs73/PROD
rcp -rp /zbackup/oracle2/dbs73/PROD/* george:/extdisk/oracle2/dbs73/PROD
.
.
.
rcp -rp /zbackup/array3/oracle8/dbs73/PROD/*
george:/extdisk/oracle8/dbs83/PROD
 
Yes it's annoying but you only have to write the script once!
 
Now you can edit that trace file while you wait for your data to finish
moving:
 
In my trace file I change the line:
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE PROD NORESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG
 
to
 
CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE WDSU RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
 
This changes the instance name (I'm not using log archiveing on the dev
database).
 
Now I have to edit all those pathnames.
I have stuff like
 
LOGFILE
  GROUP 1 (
'/oracle4/dbs73/PROD/redoPROD07a.log',
'/oracle1/dbs73/PROD/redoPROD07b.log'
 
Need to be changed to:
 
   '/extdisk/oracle4/dbs73/PROD/redoPROD07a.log',
   '/extdisk/oracle1/dbs73/PROD/redoPROD07b.log'
 
Also, things like
 
   '/array3/oracle8/dbs73/PROD/wds01data.1.dbf',
 
Needs to be changed to
 
  '/extdisk/oracle8/dbs73/PROD/wds01data.1.dbf',
 
 
But its not really a problem if you can use the vi editor:
 
Hit ESC key
then :1,$s/\/oracle/\/extdisk\/oracle/g ENTER
 
This changes all the /oracle to /extdisk/oracle
 
This also has the side effect that all my /array3/oracle8 has changed to
/array3/extdisk/oracle8.
 
Need to get rid of the /array3
 
In vi,
 
Hit ESC Key
then :1,$s/\/array3//g
 
Now all my paths are correct for the development database.
 
At the bottom of the controlfile tracefile I comment out the lines:
 
-- RECOVER DATABASE
-- ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG ALL
 
Change 
 
ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
 
to
 
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
 
Delete lines in the trace file from the first line until you get to the line
that says:
 
STARTUP NOMOUNT
 
Also delete or comment out any lines with a # character as the first
character.
 
Delete my old control files and run the trace file from SQL*PLUS to create
the new controlfiles and open the instance.
 
The renaming of the paths was done in two steps with vi but you can write a
shell script using sed to do the substitution for you if you like.
 
Maybe annoying but you only have to write the script once!
 
 
In your example you need to change PCLDB1 to ROLAND
 
You bring up the trace file with the CREATE CONTROLFILE script in vi and
just do:
 
Hit ESC
:1,$s/PCLDB1/ROLAND/g ENTER
 
and PCLDB1 will be substituted for ROLAND everywhere in the file.
 
If you want to write a script for this and are not familiar with sed then
maybe the UNIX sysadmin or a UNIX developer can help you with this.
 
After you get the scripts written then its really easy to move you data and
get the instance running. It's only annoying the first time!
 
Good luck,
Ed

Hi! 

We are supposed to clone our production database onto a new development box
(both boxes are Sun Solaris). The db is about 200 GB in size.

What would be the best way to achieve this? Simply copying over the files
won't work, since the instance names are different:

Production:  SID=PCLDB1 = e.g. /u02/oradata/PCLDB1/system01.dbf 
Development: SID=ROLAND = e.g. /u02/oradata/ROLAND/system01.dbf 

So would export/import the entire db be the only way? (But writing out dump
file that big should be a little disk space problem...)

Renaming all the datafiles (approx. 100) would be kind of annoying... 

Any ideas? 

This is 8.1.7 on Sun Solaris. 

Thanks, 
Helmut

Looks like she took away the permissions.

Back then that site was the first one returned by Google.

Sorry the links were so short lived.

RE: Cronjob

2002-04-24 Thread Sherman, Edward

If you crontab -e and a job is scheduled to run during the time that you are
editing, then the job doesn't execute while you are editing. No jobs will
execute while you're in crontab -e. Even if you :w your changes. No cronjobs
will execute while the editor is open so don't forget to close that editor
when you finish.

I learned this from experience (HP-UX)

RE: WHICH UNIX FOR ORACLE?

2002-04-04 Thread Sherman, Edward


HP-UX  Stable, Do you like patches?
SolarisPopular, Good for the resume.

Linux  Free + You get coolness points.

IMHO... of course!


 

-Original Message-

Might as well get my two cents in... :-)

1. Solaris
Tied for 2... AIX, Tru64, HP/UX

(leaving NUMA out of the equation for now. If you like NUMA, then look into
the status of IBM's acquisition of Sequent, I'm out of touch with that right
now.)

Different hardware solutions from different vendors have different
performance, stability and cost characteristics, and so I'll assume that all
vendors have an appropriate solution on these factors, this may not be the
case.

With these assumptions, the primary factor for me is the timeliness of the
availability of releases, patches and patchsets. Sun Solaris 32-bit is the
winner on this factor on the grounds that it is Oracle's internal
development platform. All other platforms are ported from Sun Solaris
32-bit. When that changes, my recommendation would of course also change, as
it did when Oracle moved away from Digital/VMS.

Anyone who has been in a situation where a bug was causing service failure
and who heard that a patch was available for Solaris but not your platform
knows where I'm coming from on this one.

Note: for the exact same reason, never use 64-bit Oracle on Solaris unless
you absolutely need the very-large-sga support. 64-bit Oracle on Solaris is
slow to get patches and releases.

Best,
Paul

What are you planning..? A religious war..:)
well..here is my 2 cents,IMHO
1. HP-UX
2. SOlaris
3. AIX

in the order of preference. I have worked with all
three and I found HP machines to be  reliable and
HP-UX easy to work with. This is not to say solaris is
not but I had some nightmare stroies to tell about the
bugs and quality of support from SUN. Again this is
only my opinion and as everybody knows OS is ,to some
extent ,a matter of personal choice also.

RE: Database Query Tool

2002-02-26 Thread Sherman, Edward


You might try Oracle's Query Builder product.
It seems to be an upgraded version of the old Oracle Browser.
Its part of the Developer 6i package.

You can download Developer 6i at http:\\technet.oracle.com to see if you
like it.

They have one for NT but it seems to run well on Win95/98 and XP from what I
can tell. Haven't tried it on NT yet :-)

Good Luck,
Ed

Hi,
I was asked to recommend a Query Tool for some of our end users.  I have
used Q+E aka DataDirect Explorer for years.  Now I can't find it on the
internet.  It has changed owners many times and may not even be available
now.

Does any one have a recommendation for a COTS product that allows the user
with minimum knowledge of SQL to create SQL queries, views tables,
store/recall queries, ...

Is there an Oracle product that does that?  Discoverer seems to be a bit
heavy handed.

Thanks,
Mike

RE: tns-12545

2001-12-18 Thread Sherman, Edward

Some questions for you:

What are you using to try to connect to Oracle?
Are you trying to use SQL*PLUS or and application that uses ODBC?
Is the user who can successfully connect on the same domain as you or
different domain?
Does you connection go through an oracle names server?
Can you post an entry from the sqlnet.log file that shows what happens when
the connection fails?

For starters, back up your tnsnames.ora file, get a copy of the tnsnames.ora
from machine that connects and copy to your machine and try to connect.
(Never mind that your tnsnames is correct... just try it).
Some machines can have multiple copies of tnsnames.ora. Make sure you got
the right one.

If the tnsnames has a hostname in the HOST= paramter then try using the IP
address of the target machine instead.

Example1.world = 
  (DESCRIPTION = 
(ADDRESS_LIST = 
(ADDRESS = 
  (COMMUNITY = tcp.world)
  (PROTOCOL = TCP)
  (Host = Production1)    hostname
  (Port = 1521)
)
)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = SID1)
)
  )

Example1.world = 
  (DESCRIPTION = 
(ADDRESS_LIST = 
(ADDRESS = 
  (COMMUNITY = tcp.world)
  (PROTOCOL = TCP)
  (Host = 172.16.17.100)    use IP address instead.
  (Port = 1521)
)
)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = SID1)
)
  )

RE: Export question - appending date to dmp file

Try this:
 
DUMPFILE=EXPDATA_$(date '+%m%d%Y%H%M').dmp
echo $DUMPFILE
 
should return something like:
EXPDATA_120420011626.dmp
 
Which means export started on Dec. 4, 2001 at 4:26 PM.
 
do 'man date' to customize it further for your specific needs

RE: OT: NT cmd file parameters

2001-11-16 Thread Sherman, Edward


**SHIFT
If you notice, you can only use 9 parameters: from %1 to %9. In most
of cases this it more than enough. But, if you need to use more than 9
parameters in your program, you can use the order SHIFT. SHIFT makes the
parameters lose their current value and will give them the value of the next
numbered parameters. Quite confusing, I know. Lets see it.
If you give the order SHIFT, %1 lose it's value and, from now, has
second parameter as content. The same with %2, that now refers to the third
parameter... and so on till the %9 parameter. Now, the %9 values the 10th
parameter, that was unaccesible before.
You can execute SHIFT as many times as you want. But note that the
maximun DOS order width is 255 characters, so you don't make a program that
needs 50 parameters because you won't be able to type all of them.

RE: Last day of the month unix

Well, you can do date functions in Unix.  The date function is date.  It's
not normal, because Unix Commands are supposed to be cryptic.

But, you could do the following.  You'll want to test it because no to Unii
are the same...

cal|tail -2|head -1|awk '{print $NF}' (last day of current month)
cal 2 2001|tail -2|head -1|awk '{print $NF}' (last day of February 2001)

 Is there any function that can display out last day of the month for

   lastday(Oct,2001) return me 31
 Or a variable that store this value.

 Is Date an object in unix ?

Check the Date::Manip package. The simplest way is to check
for

UnixDate( 'tommorrow', '%d') == 1 ? 'last day of month', 'not last day';

Does anyone have any good scripts for rebuilding indexes nightly on Solaris

to run this through UNIX cron jobs than using the Oracle OEM job scheduler?
I suspect the cron job will be the favorable answer.

RE: Urgent -- pipe import ???

2001-08-13 Thread Sherman, Edward

Leslie,

This is what works for me on Oracle 7.3.4.4 on HP-UX

(zcat /extdisk/exp1/acc_per_06300200.dmp.Z  \
/extdisk/exp1/export_pipe ); \
imp parfile=/extdisk/exp1/newpar.par

Maybe you can try this if your Sun has zcat.

I have never seen a pipe work for a while and then fail. I think
it is probably not the pipe (unless you try to run two imports through the
same pipe at the same time?).

From what I can see your syntax appears okay (I didn't test it) and if it
was working at the start of import then it should continue working until the
import finishes. You saw correct import messages displayed before it hung?

Are you sure the export was a good one with message
Export terminated successfully without warnings. in the log file?

Let us know how it goes.
Ed

Hi all,

I sent this last Friday.  Maybe not too many people
check mail on Friday, so I send it again:

For 815 on Sun5.6, I'm using pipe to import a 1G dmp.Z
file, which can be uncompressed to a 9G dmp file:

The directory I issue the following commands has 4G
available:
mknod /tmp/imp_pipe  p
uncompress  arbor_minexp_20010726.dmp.Z 
/tmp/imp_pipe  
imp file=/tmp/imp_pipe parfile=imp.par

The import worked fine for a little while and then
stuck in a table with 1048 row, which is not big at
all.  It stuck there for more than 8 hours until I
kill it.  (The database is not archived.)

Anything could be wrong?  Should I do the uncompress 
arbor_minexp_20010726.dmp.Z  /tmp/imp_pipe   in a
directory that has 9G free space???  Also I'm not
familiar with pipe, could the pipe fail?  

Thanks a lot!

Leslie

SQL*Plus Quick Reference

Somebody was asking about SQL*Plus quick reference a while ago.
Not sure if it was this list or the other one.
I think the best we could do was to find a quick ref. for Oracle 7.

SQL*Plus quick reference is now available for 8.1.7 and 9i (9.0.1)

For 8.1.7 go to http://tahiti.oracle.com/pls/tahiti/tahiti.homepage
Then click on the word books in the sentence  List of books, including
PDF for printing in the top right portion of the page.
Scroll down the page until you see SQL*Plus Quick Reference.
Click on the PDF link at the right side of the page.

For 9i go to  http://tahiti.oracle.com/pls/db901/db901.homepage
Then click on the word books in the sentence List of books, including PDF
for printing in the top right portion of the page.
Scroll down the page until you see SQL*Plus Quick Reference.
Click on the PDF link at the right side of the page.

Hope this helps somebody

RE: A Question on the Basics of PL/SQL

2001-06-28 Thread Sherman, Edward

Get the PL/SQL Programming book by Oracle Press.
Thats where I got the definitions below from.

It also comes with a CD containing scripts which will populate
database tables so you can try the examples in the book.

Go nuts!

-Original Message-
Sent: Thursday, June 28, 2001 5:17 PM
To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L


I am a bit confused as to when to use the following.  I 
cannot seem to find any definitive rules.

- function
Functions are named PL/SQL blocks that return a value and
can be called with arguments. They can be used as part of an
expression. They are legal in procedural statements, and certain
functions can be used in SQL statements in PL/SQL 2.1 and higher.
Functions can be stored in the database with the CREATE [OR REPLACE]
FUNCTION command, or they can be located in the declarative section
of another block.


- cursor
Cursors are used to control the processing for queries that return
more than one row. A cursor is declared using the CURSOR..IS syntax,
then processed with OPEN, FETCH, and CLOSE. Cursor attributes are used to
determine the current status of a cursor, with information about how many
rows the cursor has returned, whether the cursor is open, and whether the
last fetch was successful.


- procedure
Procedures can be stored in the database with the CREATE OR REPLACE
PROCEDURE statement, or they can be declared in the declarative secion of a
block. A procedure is a named block that can be called with parameters. The
parameters can either accept a value from the calling environment (IN),
return a value to the calling environment (OUT), or both (IN OUT).


- package
Packages are defined as two separate data dictionary objects--the package
header (or specification) and the package body. The header is created with
the CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE command, the body with the CREATE OR REPLACE
PACKAGE BODY command. Packages must be stored in the database; they cannot
be placed in the declarative section like procedures or functions. Packages
themselves can contain procedures, functions, variables, types, cursors, and
exceptions. Items declared in the package header will be visible outside the
package, while items defined in only the package body will be private to the
package. Packages also break the dependency chain because the package body
can be recompiled without affecting the package specification.

If someone can point me to a white paper, or whatever, 
that defines the rules for their usage I would be most 
thankful.

Thanks,
Ken Janusz, CPIM

You might try the cfg2html script
It dumps the ioscan,bdf,lvdisplay,pvdisplay,etc. as well as a lot
of other information about the machine, into an html file that you can view
on your browser. It might be a quick way to
get some documentation on your 60 machines. You can download it at:

I have about 60 machines without any documentation at all, I want to get
started on the hardware so I can then map on the database files.

Does anyone no of a utility that will report on the disk architecture on the
server that gives number of disks with there partitions and maybe other info
like raid levels etc.

Otherwise the only way I know is to use ioscan, df/bdf lvdisplay, vgdisplay
etc.
