AW: EXTERNAL: Application-Query-Delete-Entry

2016-09-02 Thread Conny Martin
Dave,

it’s normal behavior of an oracle database to not release any space if you 
delete records. It’s also not an issue specific to LOBs. But there are ddl 
commands to reorganize the table online to reclaim “wasted” space.

alter table T63 enable row movement;
alter table T63 shrink space cascade;

and don’t forget to rebuild the indexes as well.

Regards

Conny

Betreff: Re: EXTERNAL: Application-Query-Delete-Entry

All,
Many thanks - I'm going with the archive/delete from source option.  The 
messages form is already down to a "manageable" number of records (2 million, 
we're sending about 10,000 messages per day!)
Interesting aside - this hasn't actually freed up any space on the database.  
Its apparently something in the nature of LOBs (which are used in the To/Cc/Bcc 
fields) which means that Oracle doesn't release the space as you may expect.  
One of our DBAs has some thoughts on resolving this that involves creating a 
copy of T63, copy records over, then replace T63 with the copy.  That leaves me 
feeling a little uncomfortable with the H/B tables and database integrity.

Todd,
Regardless of the method used (archiving, or application-query-delete-entry), I 
realised this could be a problem - I've already (manually) cleared down the 
email messages form.
Awkward though, as I had set it to run overnight and delete a small data set 
(should have only been 21 records), and it doesn't appear to have done anything.

Be cautious when adding the archiving, especially if the first night it runs if

Using the RRR|Chive method I started to delete 2.5 million (2,449,811 to be
exact) Email Messages one evening and it was finished the next morning when
I returned.

I just looked the run time from the logs. It took 7.5 hours. It put some
extra (CPU) load on the system but I didn't notice any performance decrease
in the UI. If you need you can specific a nicepausetime setting to lessen
the load.

Agreed.  I set mine up with ‘Create Date’ < $DATE$ - (86400 * 365 * 5) since I 
only had 5 years of back log. Someone thought saving every email was a good 
idea.
Then each week I lowered the multiplier by 0.1 so now I’m down to (86400 * 365 
* 2.9).
We had 2.6 million email.

Dave,
Have you tried using the Archive function to just “Delete from Source”?
It sets up just like an escalation with a timing cycle to run it and a 
Qualification to select which data to delete.

Thank you,

Subject: EXTERNAL: Application-Query-Delete-Entry

All,
I'm trying to figure out the syntax required for Application-Query-Delete-Entry 
 (Server is running ARS 7.5)
Trying to keep an "archive" of emails - we have a requirement to keep 6 months 
worth in the system (audit trail, proof of sending, etc.), and the form was 
actually turning out to be the largest on the system (over 7 million records - 
I manually deleted the older ones via the user tool, that is not fun!).
In an active link, just trying a simple
 $PROCESS$ @@:Application-Query-Delete-Entry "AR System Email Messages" '3' < 
($TIMESTAMP$ - (86400 * 75))
The 75 is related to a test system and the data that is on it (would obviously 
be changed on live).  The query itself is fine against the email messages form, 
it just comes up with a qualification error when run via the active link.
Any suggestions?  I could try an alternative using Application-Delete-Entry 
  and table walking, but that'll be horrendously inefficient 
in comparison to Application-Query-Delete-Entry.
Regards
Dave Barber

Re: EXTERNAL: Application-Query-Delete-Entry

2016-08-30 Thread Arner, Todd
Be cautious when adding the archiving, especially if the first night it runs if 
it will be trying to archive a large number of records.  We ran into some major 
performance issues.  We ended up slow adjusting the archive criteria so that a 
smaller amount of records were archived each night until the back log was 
processed.

Dave,
Have you tried using the Archive function to just “Delete from Source”?
It sets up just like an escalation with a timing cycle to run it and a 
Qualification to select which data to delete.
