Re: undo and insert

For insert, in order to rollback, Oracle will still have to get the rowid of the new inserted rows, so that it can rollback when needed. So there will still be undo. - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 25, 2003 1:49

I have a related question : What about update? In rollback segment : Will it store the whole row for before image or just the changed column and rowid. Is there a way to get the size of the rollback from some where in the database. or v$ views. Like we can get an idea about redo size from redo log

Given the answer you got, you can bet that their application must be fun to look at ... Undo space is basically born-again rollback segments; look for Dan Fink's papers on the topic, you'll probably find all the answers you need there. I presume that you must be getting something like ORA-1555.

Hi! What exact error message you get? Maybe it's ORA-1555, not running out of free space in undo seg? If you got 1555's, then increase your undo retention to the lenght of longest query. Or redesign. The DBA is wrong, no physical copies of any tables are made in undo (well, unless you update all

The answer for this from our vendor is to increase the size of the UNDO based on their DBAs statement that UNDO is consumed rapidly because every query makes a physical copy of all tables and holds on to them for the retention period. Sherrie, In my considered opinion: Woohoohoohoo. That's a

Re: UNDO segments in 9.2

Is the table a pre-existing empty table, or is it being created on the fly by the import ? In the latter case, does your table have a primary key, or other index - as this could explain why you are seeing two large rollback segments. (Although 200M of table plus an index shouldn't take anything

There are two modes of rollback in 9i, undo and rollback. You either use the old way, or the new automatic way, but not both. You would need to turn off the new feature if you want to use the old method of doing redo. Do not criticize someone until you walked a mile in their shoes, that way
