RE: Mean/Median - Another method
median; adjective: (statistics) relating to or constituting the middle value of an ordered set of values (or the average of the middle two in an even-numbered set) This is the definition of median. It's not a calculated value, it's more of a derived value. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/15/01 07:38PM Another way to compute median is here: 1. You should know that there is a linear relationship between Mean, Median and Mode. Find that relationship. 2. Find the mean of the data. Its nothing but the average. 3. Next you have find the mode. Mode is nothing but the most frequent data. suppose, sal is the column for which you want to find the median, then proceed like this - select sal, count(*) Number_of_people from emp group by sal order by 2 Desc; Now the first record returned by the above query represents the mode. Caputure the sal from this first record and call it as mode. 4. Now, Using the relationship u determined in step 1, calculate the median values by substituting the mode and mean values. PS: I know this is going to work is salary is an interger field. But I doubt it if its a real number. Listers,letme know if I am wrong.

Re: consistency in cost?
Interesting...CHOOSE means Oracle will decide whether to use RULE or COST. But a CHOOSE hint will force use of COST. Kind of diminishes the meaning of CHOOSE, doesn't it? Seems like a pointless hint... [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/08/01 11:45PM If the system is Rule based and you code Hints, the CBO will be automatically invoked Sam - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 08, 2001 10:12 PM Forgive my ignorance but I thought hints were only for cost based optimizer. Have you checked in case anybody has changed any parameters while the system is running as I know that changing the hash_area_size can change the execution plan?. Are you using parallelism as if a table had to be recreated for any reason and its degree changed it might do a FTS? Cheers Iain Nicoll -Original Message- Sent: 08 May 2001 17:31 To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Jared, The only difference is about a weeks worth of extra data. Well, the hardware is also different (Ultra450 vs. Ultra 5000. Also 1 vs 4 CPU). But regardless, shouldn't init.ora optimizer_mode=choose be identical to optimizer_mode=rule with hint=choose? If I have the time, I'll try to set up a couple of systems and examine by moving stats and taking some 10053 dumps. (one of the ones giving me a problem is in production so I have limited play time there). Henry -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, May 08, 2001 12:56 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Henry Poras Henry, You say 'nearly identical'. What are the differences? Are the 2 databases on the same platform? If not, what are the differences, hardware and OS? Jared On Monday 07 May 2001 21:55, Henry Poras wrote: I am working with an 8.1.6 database on Solaris 2.6 and I am wondering if there is any consistency in the optimizer. We have two nearly identical databases (one a clone from two weeks ago). A five table join has nearly the identical execution plan on the two databases. The difference is in the access method of the fourth table in the join; in one case it is accessed by a FTS and in the other, by Index. This difference has a large effect on performance. Statistics are nearly identical for this table in both databases (I looked at dba_tables, dba_indexes, dba_col_tables). Also, the init.ora is the same. When I changed the optimizer_mode to rule and added a 'choose' hint to the query, the execution plan was different again. I will look into this a bit further and post my results. Just wondering about other's experiences. Thanks.

When I connect to the NT and run the query by hand it also hangs. But I can join the NT table to each of the AIX tables and get instant results - I just cannot join all three. Turn tracing on for the session and check out the trace file. In all likelihood the session is not actually hung, just running very slowly. You can also monitor v$sess_io to see what activity is taking place for the session. Check out the explain plan. Do you have a copy of the explain plan from when it worked? Of course you don't, neither does anyone else. If you did, you could compare them. As it is, take a look at it, as it may be rather revealing.

Re: Constraint dependencies
Basically you should drop the constraints of type 'R' first, then drop the constraints of type 'P' and 'U'. See the CONSTRAINT_TYPE in the USER_CONSTRAINTS view. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/01/01 05:50PM Hi - When dropping and/or re-applying constraints for an entire schema, is there a dictionary table that can be queried (or some other way) to determine constraint dependencies - or do you just keep running the script until you do not get those errors? I would like to be able to identify the order that the constraints should be dropped (or added) so that I can write a script to be automated ( for example, to refresh test data from production).

Re: ORA-24347 (null column in aggregate function) - SQL*Plus
Looks like you have user with no objects. Try count(*) instead of count(object_name); [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/30/01 02:25PM I'm a little stumped. I'm using SQL*Plus 8.1.6.0.0 client to connect to an Oracle 8.0.5 database on a Windows NT server. I want to get the count of objects for each user, with a 0 count for users without any objects. But when i run the query, errors message ORA-24347 is returned. Why would that be? When I run the query directly on the server, using a SQL*Plus 8.0.5 client, the query returns the expected data with no errors. Is there a bug in Metalink for this? I didn't find anything, but maybe my searching skills need some honing. Should I stick with older versions of the SQL*Plus client?

Re: Please Advice on Performance Tuning
Trace each process with timed statistics = true and run tkprof on the trace files, then compare. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/27/01 01:25AM Hi all, We have got a Payroll Application develeoped in-house. It takes 30-34 Minutes to Run this Batch Application. General feeling is - it should be able to process it within 10-15 Minutes may be less than that. I am to look into this problem and give a solution to it. Steps I had followed as 1. Import the payroll user to another Oracle User in the same database. 2. Removed unnecessary Index , Put parallelism into few tables by Alter table tab1 Parallel(DEGREE 5) 3. Analyze the tables with compute statistics; 4. Run the payroll without checking any inefficient SQL or wrong programming logic in the those Packages( It has only two Package in it no other stand alone Procedure or function). Payroll under this new Oracle User runs in 22-24 Minutes, 6-9 Minutes less. So, I asked Payroll Person to remove those unnecessary Index, asked him to put parallelism into those tables which I had done. He runs the Payroll with no Improvement at all. I asked again to drop those table and recreate it with new storage parameter same as the one created at New User. Still no visible Improvement. At this stage every table in both user has same storage parameter,same index ,and also analyzed. The question is why in One User it runs in 22-24 Min and in another 30-34 Min ? Now Please advice me what do I check or to do, so that the it time takes to run comes down to 22-24 Min, same as the new user.

Re: OT: Reading the Oracle Tea Leaves
Nope, still in demand. It seems the more init.ora parameters and other stuff becomes self tuning, the more our knowledge and skill set is required at higher levels. As a for instance, it seems like CBO is finally working pretty well, but, there are more init.ora parameter settings that can influence CBO's logic, so they will still need us for awhile yet (hopefully).

Re: Oracle vs DB2
because Oracle delivers a higher quality of service than DB2. IBM touts its lower database price, but why risk your business on DB2, a product with many hidden costs? Technology Innovation Is Key By far, the largest hidden cost of running DB2 is IBM's low rate of innovation. Innovation is key to a robust but flexible IT infrastructure. Information systems must evolve constantly as end-user demand changes. They need to evolve rapidly to respond to business changes such as company acquisitions or unexpected competitive pressure. An IT infrastructure based on software products that lack innovation becomes legacy very rapidly. And legacy is expensive to maintain or replace. Oracle has been the database technology innovator for 20 years. In 1979, Oracle delivered the first commercial relational database. In 2001, Oracle delivers the first database caching technology that improves web performance and allows IT organizations to reduce hardware costs. Oracle has not stopped innovating over the past 20 years. Buying DB2 means buying into an infrastructure that is less advanced than your competitors' and that quickly will become legacy in no time. In the long run, buying DB2 equals additional and unnecessary costs as systems need to be upgraded or replaced to reap of the business benefits of more innovative technology. Customers Are The Real Proof Customer acceptance is the real proof, and customers are choosing Oracle: Oracle has been growing its software business at an average rate of 20% per year while IBM's software business has been flat or declining for nearly six years in a row. Customers vote with their pocketbooks and, clearly, they are voting for Oracle, not IBM. Oracle has a higher customer retention rate than IBM (AMR Research, November 2000) 11% of IBM DB2 customers plan on switching to a different database over the next 2 years. (AMR Research, November 2000) Oracle is the most commonly used database across all industries, with usage rates that are, on average, 3 to 4 times higher than IBM DB2 (AMR Research, November 2000) Oracle database is the most commonly used database for developers: a recent EvansData survey shows that 55% of developers use Oracle, only 25% use IBM DB2. The Oracle leadership fact page is on www.oracle.com Oracle Worldwide Marketing [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/24/01 11:57AM Disclaimer: I am *not* trying to start a religious war, and I am *not* trying to advocate DB2. I am simply offended. Thus this post. As some may remember, I'm doing an evaluation of Oracle vs DB2 vs SQLServer to determine our future direction. Here's a datum that makes a significant difference to us, dollar-wise. With Oracle, in order to make a database accessible to the internet through a web page, you have to buy an unlimited-user enterprise license. We had a senior sales person in our office yesterday, and we asked this question a number of different ways. He bobbed and he weaved, but he did not deny it. And the quote he supplied afterwards does not address the issue at all. Cost of unlimited-user Enterprise version for our installation (your mileage may vary) = Approx $160,000 Cdn. IBM, for the same purpose, will sell you DB2 UDB Workgroup edition (1 user), and something called WE Internet Access, for a total price of $6000 Cdn. I have a written quote from an IBM salescritter to this effect. $6000. $160,000. $6000. $160,000. Hm. Let me think. I respectfully submit that Oracle's pricing structure is out of line with market realities, and may have to undergo significant revision.

It seems to me that (theoretically) ***if*** you are doing structured denormalization correctly, that is exactly when you would want to do it, no? Unless you detect a performance problem, why denormalize at all? We always have folks that want to denormalize because they *think* there will be a performance problem. This usually occurs because they think that joining 3 or 4 tables will be too slow. I guess I've been under the impression that a good design process would be done with proper methods, including having (legitimately tested) performance metrics. Are you saying that is an overly idealistic approach for most real world situations? :) ... ... Only one table was highly denormalized, and that was nobody could figure out a reasonable way to normalize it. Not sure if I could yet. :) Well, as i said before, my understanding is that it was unnormalized, which is different from denormalized.

Fwd: Re: Where can I find real-life-examples about ORACLE
I'm an admitted purist...I look at denormalized and unnormalized as being the same. I've been on projects that wanted to introduce denormalization because the developers expected a performance issue. After I look at it and disagree, then the war begins. On the other hand, on my latest project, I agreed with a suggested denormalization after I heard all the facts. I like your point about calling it structured denormalization. Makes sense to me. As far as people making business decisions, why do they need to know about denormalization? That's an implementation issue. If they hired good IT people, then they're ok. If they didn't, they're screwed. Such is life in the big city. We need to get some successes under our belt so we can preach with confidence and having refenceable clients available. Eric D. Pierce [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/23/01 02:06PM And I'd be curious to know why you are curious! What I have gathered so far from the discussion is that normalization zealotry, probably similar to other purist perspectives in life, doesn't get any particularly huge respect in the real world. In other words, people that make business decisions have never heard of any conventional wisdom that violating normalized db designs will automatically wreck their organization. Like many other things, their IT infrastructure will inefficiently plod along, and suffer the burden of crappy models (grumbling dbas and all) in spite of a lack of conformance to theoretical orthodoxy. I would guess that in some cases, an organization's IT folks might be able to present a coherent business case for zealous normalization, but doing so is probably a rare skill, and perhaps even more rarely appreciated by the organization. Unfortunately the situation for structured denormalization is probably about the same, except that it may not have quite the political baggage, and so can just be used as a technical method. ep ps, don't forget that the word structured needs to be in front of denormalized. on the other hand, unnormalized (non-normal) by definition can't be structured. unnormalized implies a *lack* of methodology, whereas structured denormalization implies method/rules/order/metrics/analysis/etc. pss, do you remember reading the Oracle Magazine article on denormalization by Ulka Rogers back in the Oracle v6 (or maybe early v7) days?

It seems to me that (theoretically) ***if*** you are doing structured denormalization correctly, that is exactly when you would want to do it, no? Unless you detect a performance problem, why denormalize at all? We always have folks that want to denormalize because they *think* there will be a performance problem. This usually occurs because they think that joining 3 or 4 tables will be too slow. I guess I've been under the impression that a good design process would be done with proper methods, including having (legitimately tested) performance metrics.

Re:RE: Parallel index builds can crash
by the query server processes. Therefore, an index created with an INITIAL of 5MB and a DOP of 12 consumes at least 60MB of storage during index creation because each process starts with an extent of 5MB. When the query coordinator process combines the sorted subindexes, some of the extents may be trimmed, and the resulting index may be smallerthan the requested 60MB. ORA-1652 From version 7.x, we can create certain objects in parallel, or unrecoverable. In order for Oracle to accomplish this, temporary segments are created that eventually become a permanent part of the object, yet Oracle still refers to them as temp segments. Thus, most of the time you receive this error, it will be referring to the tablespace the object is going to be created in. Do the following query to find out if you're out of extents: select max(blocks), max (bytes) from sys.dba_free_space where tablespace_name = 'tablespace in error message'; For example, The above query may return: SQL blocks bytes 614312,580,864 Notice that the biggest CONTIGUOUS block of free space is only 6143 blocks and Oracle needs a contiguous block of free space of 6144 to create an object. You may have a lot of free space in separate blocks in your tablespace, but if it is not contiguous, Oracle cannot use it. Allocating extents requires that there be a contiguous block of free space. SOLUTION: 1. Add a datafile to the tablespace 2. Adjust the storage parameters of the object you are trying to create. Parameters to look at: initial extent, next extent, pct increase. 3. If you have a lot of free space in that tablespace, but the it is very fragmented, you may want to consider rebuilding the tablespace. 4. Enable AUTOEXTEND for the datafile - Also, Please reviewNote:100492.1Via metalink (Metalink - - technical library- - reach with note#) Title: ORA-01652: estimate space needed to create index - Also further researched and found:Bug:377439.-P Abstract: INDEX BUILD FAIL WITH PARALLEL DEGREE 1 - is there any ora-7445 and core dump file in udump directory? - is there an internal error (ora-600) trace file?

Re: Indexes causing a slowdown
Yep. As you're loading, Oracle keeps trying to re-balance the tree. Oracle 8i handles this better. I have a client who avoided this problem by reversing the order of the digits of the sequence generated key, so, for example, if your next key is 123456789, you would reverse that and use 987654321 instead. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/04/01 11:16AM OS HP10.20 Oracle 7.3.3 (ya I know) Every now and then we get the situation were application grows to a standstill as far as loading data. These should all be straight forward inserts. Rebuilding the indexes causes the problem to go away. These indexes are all based on primary key values like sequence numbers. Now I know that indexes that are of that type will not have a balanced tree and will periodically need to be rebuilt but to me that should just affect things that are trying to select from the index. Problem is, it takes a full day to rebuild the indexes on this database and we cannot do this while the app is up due to activity levels keeping the tables locked.

There are no entries in the index for those rows... [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/30/01 06:30AM Hi, I have a table A with two identical, integer, nullable columns col1 and col2, both of which are indexed. The table A has 100,000 rows and takes up 11,000 blocks. The indexes on the two columns take about 225 leaf blocks each with BLevel=1. The optimizer goal is set to CHOOSE and the table analyzed with compute stats. Oracle version 8.1.7 on Win' 2000. Right, when I now run the query: SELECT COUNT(col1) FROM A WHERE col1=col2; the CBO is doing a full table scan on A (with 11000 physical reads) rather than just joining the two indexes to get the result. I have two questions: 1. Why is the CBO not choosing to join the indexes by default? 2. When I gave an INDEX_JOIN hint /*+ INDEX_JOIN (A COL1IDX COL2IDX) */, it did do a hash join of the two indexes which was faster but still took about 6500 physical reads while the two indexes put together take only about 452 blocks.

Re: Why can't I see any Application Systems in my Des 2000
This might have worked better had you created a repository from scratch in your new 8.1.5 database, then exported/imported the application systems from your old repository to your new one. This is how I would have done it. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/29/01 08:00AM I just migrated my database that supports Des/2000 version 2.1 from 7.3.4 to 8.1.5. I did not upgrade Designer and don't plan to at this time. Due to lack of any specific documentation anywhere on how to migrate this database, I simply created a brand new database of the same name on a different box as 8.1.5 and imported a full database dump that I had exported from the system Oracle ID on the old 7.3.4 database. I doubted this would work but thought I would try. I changed my tnsnames.ora file on my NT to point to the new database and brought Des/2000 up. The Application System pop-up window comes up and shows me no Application Systems. If I hit cancel on this popup, I can get to and bring up the Repository Adminstration Utility. I selected Upgrade, went through the various steps, and everything says that my repository is already up to date. I feel that I am missing some script. Perhaps a cat for Designer/2000. Is there any such thing? Is there anything else I can run from the Repository Administration Utility that will make my Application Systems show up in the pop-up window? Can anyone point me to any documentation on how to migrate a database supporting Des/2000 without upgrading Designer? I have looked through a lot on online documentation on Technet, Metalink but all of it assumes that you are upgrading Designer. Thanks in advance to any kind soul who can help.

RE: Tuning Matter == Parameter PCT_USED in a Table
Ok, I'll admit my ignorance. What the heck does "1 row" mean? It can't mean the row length, or you'll end up with a negative PCT_USED. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/22/01 09:35PM Hi Bambang, Analyze the table and you'll find the average row length in USER_TABLES.AVG_ROW_LEN. Subtract 90 bytes from the block size before expressing that as a percentage and round it up. Also, the formula should be PCT_USED = 100 - (PCT_FREE + 1 row).

Re: EMC TimeFinder, and EMC TimeFinder vs Hot Standby
Yeah, that's it, Business Continuation Volume. The client site I was at was going to use that for a daily cold backup, and leave it disconnected for use as a "reporting" database. It was going to be a poor man's data warehouse. Not the best idea, but a method to at least get started. The plan was to re-synch in the early evening, then do the whole shutdown, detach, startup, backup process again. I do remember one flaw in the plan was that you couldn't have a second database instance on the same server accessing the BCVs because the disk addressing would conflict with the mirrored disks, so they needed a second, smaller server to mount the BCVs to for handling the second reporting database. The server involved was IBM AIX. I believe HP has the same limitation. Dunno if the limitation is server based or if it's a general disk addressing issue.

Case of the blind leading the blind deaf. Dick Goulet Reply Separator________ Author: "Tim Sawmiller" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 3/21/2001 11:45 AM But all is not gloom and doom for Oracle. Excerpts from Chuck Phillips of Morgan Stanley on the last quarter It's useful to keep the quarter in perspective. It's a miss but not a financial disaster: - Oracle made $900 million in operating profits in the quarter. This is real business. - Revenue of $2.67 billion was 5% below our $2.75 billion estimate -- not 25% below like some other pre-announcements. - The company booked $1.1 billion in license revenue instead of our $1.2 billion estimate -- so most deals closed. - Applications were up 50% in the quarter. Database was flat to slightly down in the quarter versus a tough compare. Total licenses increased 6%. Oracle was one of the last generals left standing on a brittle technology battlefield, and in the end couldn't avoid the bullets and hand grenades that were showering down from above. It has become clear that in an environment like this one, there are no bulletproof vests. Other software companies have to be concerned and will likely see something in March. Oracle has a strong product line, is well established with customers references and couldn't get quite enough deals done. Most other software companies are in far weaker positions from a product and positioning perspective.

Oracle Thursday announced financial results for the third quarter, ending Feb. 28. As expected, the company failed to meet the margins and profits it will need to achieve its savings goals, The operating margin for the third quarter was 33 percent. That's up 2 percent year-over-year, which is good, but it falls far short of the 40 percent margin that the company and financial analysts have said would be needed to achieve the company's goal of saving 1 billion in costs this year over last year. Combine the disappointing operating margin with flat, rather than growing, profits and what you end up with is a cost savings, year- over-year, significantly less than even the $300 million that it seemed was just barely within Oracle's reach two weeks ago. -- Mitch Wagner Read the entire story: http://update.internetweek.com/cgi-bin4/flo?y=eC2a0BdpN70V30LxJk *** ...

Re: quotes
Careful now...it's the only thing holding my stock position together... :-) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/13/01 09:27AM Isn't that utterly ridiculous. If you didn't call the 2nd server a "failover" server and just manually moved over the filesystems and net address, you wouldn't need a 2nd license! But if you automate the process with failover software, you do! The database and software are only ever going to be on one server at a time so what's the big deal? Oracle licensing has gotten so ridiculous that at our shop they've pretty much priced themselves out of the picture for all new databases. I suspect my managers aren't the only ones looking more seriously at SQL 2000 these days either. I'd look for Oracle to lose market share over the next 18 months. Not because SQL is better (it isn't), but the price performance ratio is much more acceptable. Dennis Taylor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Just got my oracle quote back.

RE: exporting MDSYS schema from an Oracle Apps 11i database?
Somewhere in the rdbms stuff (I can't remember where anymore) there should be a script
to create MDSYS and ORDSYS. These should be used instead of exp/imp.

FYI to the list: I found out why the export was unsuccessful. In

Re: confused about # of extents per segment performance issue
This really depends on the type of access. If it's random using indexes, the extents don't matter much. If you do a lot of full table scans, and the extents are scattered all over, there may be a performance degradation. YMMV as always. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 02/27/01 01:06PM Apparently, it's a widely held myth that a large # of extents (let's say "BETWEEN 5 AND 1000") per table segment is bad for performance. Yet the same sources who label the belief mistaken persist in pushing for fitting all of a table in the INITIAL extent. And that confuses the heck out of me. What gives? Is it that fetching a new extent on the fly, the act of obtaining a new extent, creates too much overhead? And finis, no more concern beyond this? If you approached a database for the first time and it already contained a segment with 500 extents, would that segment's number of extents not be a performance concern unless you expected it to continue grabbing new extents? Let's say it would never have a new insert, update, or delete. Would there be any performance value in crushing the segment down to fit in one extent? What's the definitive answer on this? I remain confused about coalescing as well; anyone know of a good whitepaper or article on coalescing/fragmentation for Oracle 8 and beyond? Thanks. - Dana __ Do You Yahoo!?
