OTN service
I mentioned that the 32 bit solaris gz file for 8.1.7 that I downloaded from otn provided one disk image on the order of 900MB. What technology do I need to move to in order to burn this onto plastic? Are we talking dvd burner here? I asked oracle what the intent was with this, the answer is a classic: The OTN Service Network is specifically designed for customers who need support on software downloaded via OTN. The OTN Service Network offers pay-per-incident support provided by Oracle certified professionals. Support is available on Oracle Database Server, Oracle9I Application Server and Oracle Tools products. Pricing is $50, $75 or $100 based on the complexity of the issue. By intent, I ment what technology was targeted.

Re: Changing SQL statements inside the database
The Virtual Private Database (VPD) facility (a.k.a. "fine-grain" or "row-level" security) can be used to alter SQL on the server, regardless of origin. I implemented an access control list (ACL) feature for a system two years ago, complete with recursion inside PL/SQL for navigating the (implied) double-dimensioned linked-lists that typical ACL functionality requires. Navigating linked-lists is naturally something that you wouldn't want to code in a SQL statement, but VPDs did it quite nicely by allowing me to run a custom PL/SQL packaged function during the PARSE phase of a SQL statement. The packaged function is supposed to return a string which is tacked onto the SQL statement, so you cannot "modify" existing text in the SQL, but you can add additional SQL text to the WHERE clause, including subqueries. There are other little useful twists and tricks and gotchas involved, but that's the general idea... But, be *very* careful! You can just imagine how badly you can harm performance and accessibility through casual use of this feature... :-) - Original Message - To: "Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, May 02, 2002 7:18 AM > Hello list > > This time I need your help on how to implement a weird idea. > We have a third party application that fire wasteful SQL's to the database. > (Remember the discussion on using x$dual Vs dual some days ago?) > > I am wondering: Is there a way to change the SQL that the user send? > > In ADABAS on the mainframe I can activate a user exit that gets the command > that > the user send to the database and change it (Not only can, but we are doing > it!). > > Is there a way to do the same with SQL in Oracle? > > In the server (preferably) or in the client. > > Thanks > > Yechiel Adar > Mehish > > -- > Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com > -- > Author: Yechiel Adar > INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 > San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists > > To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message > to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in > the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L > (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

Re: How to know if another database is running on the same machine?
Hi Dmit, When you connect to a database and look at v$database, it will only show you information about the current database. On win2k you should check the following: 1. go to the services panel and make sure you have services created and started for each database 2. from the dos prompt check the listener to make sure it is listening for each of these databases 3. assuming you are using tnsnames file check to make sure each of these databases are in the tnsnames file 4. from the dos prompt see if you can connect to each of these databases using the oracle_sid set oracle_sid=oemrep sqlplus user/password select * from v$database; exit set oracle_sid=mydata sqlplus user/password select * from v$database; exit If all of the above are ok, you should be able to connect using the listener as well. Good luck, John [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >Hi! > >On my win2k server I configured two databases one for data (MYData) and the >other for EM Repository OEMREP.

Correcting user sql inside the database
Hello list This time I need your help on how to implement a weird idea. We have a third party application that fire wasteful SQL's to the database. (Remember the discussion on using x$dual Vs dual some days ago?) I am wondering: Is there a way to change the SQL that the user send? In ADABAS on the mainframe I can activate a user exit that gets the command that the user send to the database and change it (Not only can, but we are doing it!). Is there a way to do the same with SQL in Oracle? In the server (preferably) or in the client.

RE: ERD generation tool - Active Comparisons
Why? For consistnecy. I am in charge of making ALL changes to the data model, then rolling out those changes to the db. Our developers RELY on me and my tools for a database that reflects the model that we developed (Without Error). Therefore, everything we do here STARTS with the model (dreamy, huh?). And the developers agree with this as we can get literally hundreds of changes (this has calmed down now that we have our first release), and this is the best way in our case to manage it (one point of change). Now, I had been seeing some *weird* stuff creep into the model (inconsistencies, datatypes not being consistent from the logical to physical model etc). So, I spent some time going throught the entire model *fixing* the little stuff and syncing the logical and physical models. I ran a bunch of reports to looks at it (and got some of the wierdness that I mentioned previously like pk cloumn showing up a NULLABLE...etc). So, as a further TEST, I rolled out the model using the scripts generated by ERWin and just for the Heck of it, decided to do the compare and it failed. NO ONE was mucking with the database. But compares from model to db are useful for syncing the db IF something like that should happen. Think of it this way, copying a file in an editor (take Word for example). You may not NEED that extra file, but you would be completely WIGGED out if your copy was NOT the same as the original. Which was my point of doing it in the first - to test ERWin. It failed.

Re: pl/sql is INTERPRETED?
Hold on Lisa! Java is not complex. It's a very simple language actually. It took me a week to learn it, though I'm not using it now: I much prefer Perl. Getting a handle on all of the libraries and API's is another story, but Java as a language is pretty simple.
