RE: 81714 aborted upgrade and core dumps on NT

2001-07-12 Thread Reardon, Bruce (CALBBAY)

Solved.
Time for the update and thanks to all for the replies and help.

To answer a question, we were using older versions of clients (more
specifically we are using Microsoft ODBC Driver with a 7.3.4 client and on
separate PCs Forms 4.5) but it turns out the problem is not related to this.

Instead, we were running into bug 1353943 with description "ORA-7445
[FEAD06D0]WHEN PARAMETER SERIAL_REUSE =ALL DURING PL/SQL EXECUTION "
Note that bug 1353943 also seems to effect you when you are using
serial_reuse=SELECT.

Now on NT you do not see the ora-7445 in the alert log.
Instead you get a core dump produced (and under 81714 / NT4 the
core_dump_dest does work for us) and you can get a stack trace from that
showing which Oracle functions were called.

Thanks,
Bruce Reardon


-Original Message-
Sent: Tuesday, 10 July 2001 8:38 

Bruce,

Core dumps are even more of a pain on NT since they
don't generate a helpful trace file as on other
platforms.  You should have a core.log file in one of
the dump directories (core_dump_dest didn't work on
NT, although I've heard it does on 8.1.7+, but haven't
tested it).

There should be a stack trace in it somewhere, but
that's about it.  If you're lucky, it will be unique
enough to help support identify an existing bug.

Yes, I have had cases where enabling tracing prevented
the error from occurring, thereby making it incredibly
difficult to resolve.

HTH,

The way I do now is : Query the line containing 'from' in text field of

Re: MINUS--Sql help

2001-07-12 Thread Yosi Greenfield

Rivandra,

The minus operator is a set operator. It subtracts one
result set from another. That is, the rows from the second
result set that exist in the first result set are removed from
the first result set, and the remaining rows are returned.

To substract one sql numeric result from another, use
sqlplus variables.

col a new_value a_hold
select 15 a from dual;

-- a_hold now contains 15

select 25 - &a_hold from dual;

will provide the desired result.

hth,

Yosi

Re: Problem with performance

2001-07-12 Thread Yosi Greenfield

Alexander,

All of the performance books you may one day read will tell
you that before you tune waits, first make sure your SQL is
good. That is, run explain plan (or any gui tool that will run
explain plan for you) and make sure the sql is using the
appropriate indexes, etc.

If all that works, then try increasing your buffer cache.

Yosi

RE: How to get the list of tables used in a view?

2001-07-12 Thread Reardon, Bruce (CALBBAY)

Hi Ashoke,

Under 817 you can use dba_dependencies - their may be other ways as well.

For example:

SQL> create table a (a integer);

Table created.

SQL> create table b (b integer);

Table created.

SQL> create view ab as select * from a,b where a=b;

View created.

SQL> select * from dba_dependencies where  NAME = 'AB';

OWNER  NAME   TYPE REFERENCED_OWNER   REFERENCED_NAME
REFERENCED_T REFERENCED_LINK DEPE
-- --  -- ---
 --- 
USER01 AB VIEW USER01 B
TABLEHARD
USER01 AB VIEW USER01 A
TABLEHARD

2 rows selected.

Searching dba_views.text will be a problem if the table names are split over
more than 1 line in the view definition.

Bruce Reardon

Hermanto,

Recreate the table with larger initial and next extent size.
Try not to have too many small extents since it becomes unmanageable
but rather have fewer larger extents.  I try not to have more than 30 or 40
extents.

Performance is not much of a problem with multiple extents but make sure
your 
extent sizes are multiples of multi block read size.

See Steve Adams tip on planning extents.

Hi gurus,
I have a problem with the table extent.
Actually, the table extent growth too fast.
Maybe I  set the extent configuration wrong.
So, I have to adjust the next extent almost every two months.
Now the maxextents value already reach 80 (oracle 7.3).
Is there anyone knows about how I should manage the extent of table ?
What I have to do if I have reach 121 maxextents value ?
Thanks before for your kind advise.

How to get the list of tables used in a view?

2001-07-12 Thread ASHOKE MANDAL

Greetings,

Is there any dictionary table/view where I can query the name of all the 
tables used by a particular view?

The way I do now is : Query the line containing 'from' in text field of 
dba_views for the specified view.

Is there any other way to get the list of the tables used by a view?


Thanks,
Ashoke

Re: find free space under HWM for a table

2001-07-12 Thread Chuan Zhang

Thanks for all your reply.

I am still confused about getting free space or blocks under HWM for a
table.

Let me first list something here for clarification. If something wrong,
please correct it.


1. dbms_space:

UNUSED_SPACE Procedure Returns information about unused space in an object.
To my understanding,  these unused space could be both above and under HWM.

FREE_BLOCKS Procedure Returns information about free blocks in an object.
Again, these free blocks include blocks above and under HWM.

>From this dbms_space package, you cannot simply get the free space or blcoks
under HWM.


2. dba_segments

blocks: Size, in Oracle blocks, of the segment.

3. dba_tables (analyzed)
blocks: Number of used data blocks in the table
empty_blocks: Number of empty (never used) data blocks in the table. It
seems above the HWM.

>From the above, you cannot get the free blocks under HWM. I define the "free
blocks" as " blocks are blocks which are never used or once used but later
released because of mass deleting"

Much appreciated for your reply.
Thanks,

Chuan

RE: OT: Order By Position and UNION

2001-07-12 Thread Larry Elkins

Thanks for the response. I'm wondering if it has always been like that or if
it changed with a recent version -- don't know since I have always used
positional notation going back to V5 when I started using Oracle (and yes, I
know people go back further than that -- that's not the point I was trying
to make). Taking your example further, if I alias each column (in your case
alias deptno and locid as empno), it will still work if I refer to empno in
the ORDER BY. Not that our queries make much sense ;-)

Anyway, I think it's obvious why I used OT in the subject line -- we are
talking about some trivial things here ;-) But, there is still the curiosity
factor that made me want to know if it has always been this way or if this
behavior was introduced in a particular version or point release. For
example, in-line views were "there" in 7.1 but not official until 7.2 (I
think those are the correct versions, it's been a while).

OK, I did a deja search since this is bugging me and at one point, based on
posts I pulled up and the examples they provided, you were *required* to use
positional. And as we see PL/SQL sometimes lagging SQL, there also were
mentions of where referring to a column name was supported in SQL but not in
PL/SQL, and references to in earlier versions where positional was required
in both. But, none of the posts happened to mention what version of the DB.

So I now know that I'm not crazy, that positional was mandatory at some
point. It's interesting what the manuals say and your examples showing the
difference between unioning 2 or 3 selects, and then what happens with
aliasing all to be the same. I'll stick with positional to be safe.

Larry G. Elkins

Re: sqlplus question ???

2001-07-12 Thread Yosi Greenfield

Yes, there is. You'll get at least 5 replies for this, 'cause
it's an easy one, but maybe I'll be first.

Sum computes on breakpoints, so you have to set the
sum (which you did) and also set the breakpoint (which
you did not).

Add

break on report

to the sql file.

Good luck,

Sure, the performance of the NetApp. Filers is pretty
good if you configure it right. Pay heed to some of
the basics in DBA101 - such as separate DATA from
INDX. This can be done with their volume manager and I
urge you to do that. Separation of write-intensive
components on separate volumes will also help.
Creating one huge volume with all the disks and not
separating contending components can and will cause
disk-level "head thrashing". This will cause I/O
bottlenecks regardless of your storage vendor.

Thanks for the kind words about the book. Could not
have done it without Kirti's support and efforts. 

Yes, RAID3/4 primarily caters to applications that
perform bulk sequential reads with a few number of
users. But, with the WAFL (Write Anywhere File Layout,
referring to the act of writing filesystem meta-data
blocks anywhere in the file) architecture, the
overhead associated with the management of writes to
stripes of data within the RAID4 volume is greatly
minimized.

Very briefly, the write-anywhere design allows WAFL to
operate efficiently by scheduling multiple writes to
the same RAID stripe (when applicable) to minimize the
write penalty incurred with updating blocks
independently and repeatedly in a RAID stripe. This
along with the fact that NFS write requests are
grouped, scheduled and then written in a meaningful
order, makes it a very viable solution even in
"write-intensive OLTP environments". However, the
optimal configuration of the network segment on which
the Filer is put, is quintessential to optimal
performance. Follow NetApp's recommendations for that
and you should be fine.

Ross,

   I do not have any libnon8.a either on my machine, but I have a
libnoname8.a.

If I were you, I would try
cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib
ln -s libnoname8.a libnon.a

and run 'make' again. Just in case.

sqlplus question ???

2001-07-12 Thread Andrea Oracle

Hi all,

I have these in sqlplus:
set pagesize 999
Set linesize 100
Col file_name format a50
Col bytes format 999,999,999,999
compute sum of bytes on report
select file_name, bytes from dba_data_files order by
file_name;

The query returns all the data files back, but it did
NOT show the sum of the bytes.  Is there anything I
forgot to set?  Thank you.

Andrea

Properly designed and configured replication
environments, especially on 8i+, can handle a
phenomenal transaction level.  I've worked with sites
that replicate 20GB+ a day and db performance is

I am writing a SQL query using the MINUS operator.Both the select statements
return a number result and I
am trying to get the o/p with the difference of both the queries using the
MINUS
between the two select statements.But I am getting the o/p of the first
query only
and the displayed result is not the subtracted value.Both select statements
give
different number o/p when run individually.What could be wrong.

Is there anything that i am missing to consider when using the MINUS
operator.

Pls help

How about this?

ONS, ver817namesctl installs and builds OK, but I cannot get names (name
server) to run.if i run the make manually, it claims to be missing
libnon8.a

Sure enough, it's not on the file system. 

Any one run into this? I didnot find anything on MetaRetch, and R'ing the FM

Re: 9i standby

2001-07-12 Thread Rachel Carmichael

there are actually two kinds of "standby" that they are talking about in 
9i..

if you use the logminer to generate the SQL for the standby db, then you are 
applying SQL statements to the standby and you can run read-only 
transactions about it.

If you go to oracle online ed, there is a presentation on high availability 
there that you can sign up for (free registration) and it talks about this.

Re: Probelm with W2K large datafile creation

2001-07-12 Thread A. Bardeen

John,

I'm not aware of any P4 issues like this.  When you
say the process "went away" was the oracle process
still getting CPU time or was it idle?  Any disk
activity?

BTW, there is a nasty bug on 8i on NT/Win2K (bug
1668488) where files that autoextend exactly onto a
4GB boundary cannot be written to or recovered. 
Creating or manually resizing files seems to be OK,
it's only when they autoextend that the bug is
encountered.

HTH,

OT: Order By Position and UNION

2001-07-12 Thread Larry Elkins

Listers,

<<>>

For compound queries (containing set operators UNION, INTERSECT, MINUS, or
UNION ALL), the ORDER BY clause must use positions, rather than explicit
expressions.

<<>>

Now, against an 8.1.7 DB on WIN2K:

SQL> select deptno, loc from dept
  2  union
  3  select empno, ename from emp
  4  order by deptno --<< DEPTNO, not 1
  5  /

DEPTNO LOC
-- -
10 NEW YORK
20 DALLAS
30 CHICAGO
40 BOSTON
  7369 SMITH
  7499 ALLEN


I've always used positional notation in the ORDER BY on my queries using set
operators, and, the snippet from the SQL manual still says you have to. The
9i manual at tahiti contains the same statement regarding positional
notation. Now I've got someone telling me they *think* they were using
expressions even back in 7.x. Now I'm going to play it safe and continue to
use positional notation, but, I was wondering if anyone has any insight into
this. I hadn't tried expressions in V7 and was curious if it was accepted
even back then. Is this simply a documentation bug? There have been lots of
enhancements to Oracle's SQL over the last few years so I could see them
missing something.

Re: 9i standby

2001-07-12 Thread A. Bardeen

Properly designed and configured replication
environments, especially on 8i+, can handle a
phenomenal transaction level.  I've worked with sites
that replicate 20GB+ a day and db performance is
excellent.  On the other hand, I've also worked with
sites that were such a mess that replicating 100MB a
day was an effort.

I think there's just less margin for error in
designing and configuring a replication environment
when you're dealing with that high a transaction load.

RE: 9i standby

2001-07-12 Thread Gogala, Mladen

Replication happens in discrete chunks and there is a distinct possibility
of losing data if replication was used in banks. Banks and other financial
institutions are using OPS with EMC or DiskShark (IBM) based remote
replication
facilities. I know that Oxford Health Plans uses 4-way parallel server for 
both data safety and performance reasons.

card companies, and 
telephone companies were replicating there data using Oracle but it doesn't
look like it.
Anyone know what they are using? It also seems like for certain apps they

RE: rman question

2001-07-12 Thread Janardhana Babu
Title: RE: rman question






You may try duplicate database with the dbname the same as test database using RMAN. 


You may need to use the tag command while backing up sothat you can specify the tag while restoring, but, if more than one backupset available with the same tag (it is in most cases), it would restore the latest backupset with that tag. I haven't found anyother way to restore the old backup. Iam anxious to know if there is anyother possible solution from the list.

Hi Dear List,


We are using unix shell script to cold backup our production right now

once a week.
My question is if I decide to use rman instead shell script. How it
works with cold backup? Can I using rman catalog to restore a production
database to test database? Can I restore obsolete backups to another
machine using rman? Sometimes we have to restore old backups on the test

Thanks a lot.

Seema,

   It's not a matter of extent size, it's a sheer matter of number of
rollback segments. You do not have enough, and transactions are
scrambling for slots (if you have ever passed through a busy airport,
you get the picture. You need more runways).
  Official figure is one for about 4 concurrent active transactions, up
to 50.

Re: how to check BG process in WIN2000

2001-07-12 Thread A. Bardeen

Seema,

On NT/Win2K all of the Oracle processes are
implemented as threads within a single OS process. 
You'll need something like QSLICE (part of the NT
resource kit, not sure about Win2K) to view the
individual threads.

Not knowing the info that you're seeking, is
V$BGPROCESS of any help?

Probelm with W2K large datafile creation

I finally got 8.1.7 installed on the new Dell P4, had to manually set the
path and create a listener thru command line interface. When I tried to
create a tablespace at 8G (one datafile) the process went away (went to
lunch still nothing). Anyone know of a bug in this area. A 6G tablespace
create worked fine, and I could create tablespace datafiles this size on P3

oracle designer over embarcadero any day.  cheaper and more robust, with additional useful products (they are all bundled into the Internet Developer Suite).  and it is not tied to the nic card for licensing.

RE: how to check BG process in WIN2000

2001-07-12 Thread Tom Schruefer


I would be interested in that as well, I was able to do that in OS2, 
Win2000 should have caught up by now.

You can verify that the background processes have started though.  Go to 
the "Event Viewer" from the "Admin Tools" menu/folder (found in Programs 
and/or Control Panels) and select "Application Log".  BTW, as I found out 
after messing with Win2000, these logs can fill up and prevent required 
services from launching.

RE: Scsi I/O speed

Buzzwords are great.

There are a few good raid papers on my site that cover some of those he
mentioned.

w/t is write through cache
w/b is write back cache

Write back cache is basically battery backed up memory on the raid
controller to provide exceptially high transactional rates.

Stripe size is the size used when creating arrays, it detirmines how the
scsi controller writes out to disks in stripes.

OS block size is the obvious.

Command tagging is when you allow the OS to send multiple scsi commands to
the controller to execute parallel.  This in theory reduces the need to
awknowledge each request and execute it.

Disconnect/reconnect support is another feature that allows the disk to
disconnect to from the system when handling a load of requests.  This
generally reduces the bus utiliization.


This is a very brief run down of the things mentioned.

Kevin,

download SandraSoft's benchmarking tools - download.com is a good place to
start. There is quite a difference between SCSI controller interface speeds
and actual trasfer speeds between the OS and the physical hard drive. The
Interface speed is a theoretical max, and is more important when configuring
several drives on a single controller channel - e.g. RAID 0, 0+1, 5, etc. If
you have 4 drives on a channel configured as a 4 drive RAID 0 volume, the
controller channel SCSI interface speed could be the rate-limiting-factor.
(e.g. 4 drives with an *average* transfer rate of 25 MB/sec = 100 MB/sec >
80 MB/sec).

As there is a cache on the hard drive (2-4 MB is customary) and could be a
cache on the RAID contoller (128 MB - 4 GB?) the channel should be saturated
during memory to memory transfers (after negotiation for the transfer has
taken place) - short bursts which are then slowed by the subsequent access
of the phyiscal media.

Typical sustained read/write speeds are on the order of 30 MB/sec on the
latest and greatest 10,000 RPM drives. The fastest sustained read/write I've
seen is here - is for the 15,000 RPM Seagate Cheetah - close to 50 MB/sec on
the outer tracks
http://www.storagereview.com/articles/200105/20010510ST373405LW_1.html

Interfacespeed (MB/sec)
SCSI
Ultra Wide UW  40
Ultra2 WideU2W 80
Ultra160   U160   160
Ultra320   U320   320

IDE
UDMA-33ATA-4   33
UDMA-66ATA-5   66
Ultra ATA  ATA-6  100

Most likely, seek time will dominate transfer time unless you hike the
operating system IO_size up from 64 KB.

this site looks like fun:
http://www.storagereview.com/cgi-bin/bench_compare.pl

remember - little 'b' is bits, big 'B' is Bytes.
This is extremely important if you happen to look at NAS - using Gigabit
Ethernet for shared storage.

alert log is not capturing all errors

2001-07-12 Thread lhoska

Hi List,
I have encountered a little strange incident.  Here is a brief:
I ran a package which runs every day early in the morning.  I create a log
of the process through the spool command.
Today my package didn't run.  It had an error saying 'ERROR at line 1: 
ORA-04068: existing state of packages has been discarded' .  Anyway, not a
big deal.  I think I eliminated the error.
The thing that puzzles me is that error IS NOT in the alert log.  I had an
impression that alert log would capture ALL of the errors occurring on the
system.  Isn't it the case?
Thank you for your support.

Try reducing your SHMMAX kernel parameter to under 4GB and see

Anyone know if the standby in 9i can be in readonly mode while the logs are

the case.

Re: List of installed patches?

2001-07-12 Thread Gene Sais

There used to be a command under OH/bin called inspdvers.

>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/12/01 02:31PM >>>
You have the Oracle script owhat or the command what.
However most of the times it doesn't work this way.
Therefore you must identify the library that was
applied. With the library you get the object file.
This can be done with the README.. Then
issue an:

ar -xv  

Compare the two sizes of the object file. If they have
the same size, you "win".

RE: how to check BG process in WIN2000

2001-07-12 Thread Jon Walthour


Seema:

As far as I know, all the Oracle background processes on Windows
NT/2000 run under the oracle executable. So, in Task Manager,
for example, all you can see is the resource usage of oracle.exe,
not of the individual processes. The only way I know to monitor
the individual Oracle processes on NT/2000 is from within the
database.

Hope this helps.

Write-back cache is much faster.

Basically the OS sends an IO request to the controller, it places the change
in the battery backed up memory and responds complete to the OS.
At this point the transaction is done.  Later (ussually seconds) the IO is
written to the disks.  This proves to provide very fast response time due to
the quick return to the OS, it also proves very quick as IO is handled in
larger chunks which takes advantage of the higher IO rates as well as
provides very good use of the stripe size to fully utiliize the stripe width
of a volume rather than sending it small IO's and only using few disks.

Write-through simply means the controller will not claim transaction
complete until the disks have stored the information.
This is generally due to the lack of battery backed up ram.
Battery backuped ram gives you the protection of power loss to finish the
transactions on startup.  Which is why you can give the quick return to the
OS safely.

There are a few articles on my site on Raid which covers a lot of scsi
technology.
You will find them all under Concepts sections under Articles.
The RAID Awakinging is a good article that covers write-back cache if I
remember correctly.

Buzzwords are great.

There are a few good raid papers on my site that cover some of those he
mentioned.

w/t is write through cache
w/b is write back cache

Write back cache is basically battery backed up memory on the raid
controller to provide exceptially high transactional rates.

Stripe size is the size used when creating arrays, it detirmines how the
scsi controller writes out to disks in stripes.

OS block size is the obvious.

Command tagging is when you allow the OS to send multiple scsi commands to
the controller to execute parallel.  This in theory reduces the need to
awknowledge each request and execute it.

Disconnect/reconnect support is another feature that allows the disk to
disconnect to from the system when handling a load of requests.  This
generally reduces the bus utiliization.


This is a very brief run down of the things mentioned.

Bug in dbstart Script?

2001-07-12 Thread mohammed bhatti

Folks,

I'm not sure if this applies to any of you, but the
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart script 8.1.6 for Solaris 2.6
appears to have a slight bug in it.  Whenever we
re-booted, during the system startup, the dbstart
script is called but none of our databases ever come
up.  I finally tracked it down to this offending piece
of code in dbstart:

if test -f $ORACLE_HOME/bin/svrmgrl; then
 VERSION=`$ORACLE_HOME/bin/svrmgrl command=exit | awk
'
 /PL\/SQL (Release|Version)/ {substr($3,1,3) ;
 print substr($3,1,3)}'`
...
...
...

which I've replaced with this:

if test -f $ORACLE_HOME/bin/svrmgrl; then
 VERSION=`$ORACLE_HOME/bin/svrmgrl command=exit | awk
'
 /Oracle8i Enterprise Edition (Release|Version)/ 
{substr($5,1,3) ;
 print substr($5,1,3)}'`
...
...
...

Our databases come up automatically after a re-boot.

hth someone.

and actual trasfer speeds between the OS and the physical hard drive. The
Interface speed is a theoretical max, and is more important when configuring
several drives on a single controller channel - e.g. RAID 0, 0+1, 5, etc. If
you have 4 drives on a channel configured as a 4 drive RAID 0 volume, the
controller channel SCSI interface speed could be the rate-limiting-factor.
(e.g. 4 drives with an *average* transfer rate of 25 MB/sec = 100 MB/sec >
80 MB/sec).

As there is a cache on the hard drive (2-4 MB is customary) and could be a
cache on the RAID contoller (128 MB - 4 GB?) the channel should be saturated
during memory to memory transfers (after negotiation for the transfer has
taken place) - short bursts which are then slowed by the subsequent access
of the phyiscal media.

Typical sustained read/write speeds are on the order of 30 MB/sec on the
latest and greatest 10,000 RPM drives. The fastest sustained read/write I've
seen is here - is for the 15,000 RPM Seagate Cheetah - close to 50 MB/sec on
the outer tracks

Most likely, seek time will dominate transfer time unless you hike the

>>>[EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/10/01 01:26PM >>>
Hello,
I need to recreate a database, basically make a complete copy of one of
the
existing databases on a new server.  My networking people already copied
all
datafiles, control file, log files, init file, etc to the target server.
They also reproduced operating system directory structure.
What I need to do is to make the second part of the task work, create
the
database, services, etc and make it run.
I have not done it before and if I was doing it I would probably do
export/import type of thing but the higher ups would like to have it
done
this way.
One of the people has an idea suggesting just recreating the registry
setting by exporting it from the existing machine to the new one.
The other option is to reinstall Oracle but I am not sure how to make it
to
accept existing physical components(datafiles, control file, etc).
If someone has a suggestion I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you in advance.

RE: Re: rollback gen

Nicholas:

Some DDL (CTAS in particular and other commands that are not
exclusively DDL) will generate rollback. The rollback is due
to the data dictionary changes incurred in creating the new table
and extent allocation. If you're not sure, check it out. Just
do a simple test to confirm it.

Kevin,

download SandraSoft's benchmarking tools - download.com is a good place to
start.
There is quite a difference between SCSI controller interface speeds and
actual
trasfer speeds between the OS and the physical hard drive. The Interface
speed is a
theoretical max, and is more important when configuring several drives on a
single
controller channel - e.g. RAID 0, 0+1, 5, etc.
If you have 4 drives on a channel configured as a 4 drive RAID 0 volume, the
controller channel SCSI interface speed could be the rate-limiting-factor.
(e.g. 4
drives with an *average* transfer rate of 25 MB/sec = 100 MB/sec > 80
MB/sec).

As there is a cache on the hard drive (2-4 MB is customary) and could be a
cache on
the RAID contoller (128 MB - 4 GB?) the channel should be saturated during
memory to
memory transfers (after negotiation for the transfer has taken place) -
short bursts
which are then slowed by the subsequent access of the phyiscal media.

Typical sustained read/write speeds are on the order of 30 MB/sec on the
latest and
greatest 10,000 RPM drives.
The fastest sustained read/write I've seen is here - is for the 15,000 RPM
Seagate
Cheetah - close to 50 MB/sec on the outer tracks
http://www.storagereview.com/articles/200105/20010510ST373405LW_1.html

Interfacespeed (MB/sec)
SCSI
Ultra Wide UW  40
Ultra2 WideU2W 80
Ultra160   U160   160
Ultra320   U320   320

IDE
UDMA-33ATA-4   33
UDMA-66ATA-5   66
Ultra ATA  ATA-6  100

Most likely, seek time will dominate transfer time unless you hike the
operating
system IO_size up from 64 KB.

this site looks like fun:
http://www.storagereview.com/cgi-bin/bench_compare.pl

remember - little 'b' is bits, big 'B' is Bytes.
This is extremely important if you happen to look at NAS - using Gigabit
Ethernet
for shared storage.

RE: x$table

2001-07-12 Thread Guy Hammond

I think I read once that the X$ tables correspond directly to the C
structs and other data structures used by the Oracle kernel itself, or
maybe that's in the murky depths one level below X$. I don't know of any
situations in which it would be "safe" to attempt to manipulate them. In
fact, unless you're sure what you're doing, stick to DBA_ and above! :0)

RE: view contents of datafile

2001-07-12 Thread Hand, Michael T

Joe,

I am reading between the lines here, so bear with me.
I think you will be disappointed with the results.  Oracle (8.0.x at least)
will assign extents in a round robin fashion across all online datafiles in
a tablespace.  All three files will have some extents in them.  The only
solution (well, there may be others) is to include a step to drop and
recreate the tablespace after the export.  And, assuming you export with
compress=y, you can create empty tables in the rebuilt tablespace, and know
before you import rows if the tablespace is large enough.

If my tablespace became so big that it had 3 datafiles
and became so fragmented, then I export and import
the whole databse, how can I tell if the REORG only
used up one or two datafiles.

OR is there a utility to see contents of a datafile?

As far as I know, no. DDL statements do not generate
