dbsnmp/intelligent agent for linux
i have read and read about this beast but most of the documentation is very confusing (more reference than howto) and the 'tips' seems to be folkloreish or guesses. i gather there are some things that need to be done to these files: $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/snmp_rw.ora $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora and that the 'lsnrctl' should have the dbsnmp_(start|stop) options. mine doesnt but i assume that is because it isnt configured properly or i mooked something else up. any help you can give me would be great ... thanks --- Gabriel C.

Urgent: Retrieving Disk Space
Hi! Our Oracle database is installed on second partition of the drive capacity 7GB. Last night one the developers executed a query to create and populate a table from another table. The query wasn't successful i.e., the table couldn't get created. However the database size has grown enormous almost occupying the whole disc space. There are control files, redo log files, archive log files. What to do? TIA!

Re: Urgent: Retrieving Disk Space
Aleem, Did you mention control files, redo log files, archive log files with recovery in mind? If so, you probably don't need it. Read next if you have all the files for the database on this one poor hard drive: Review the cause for create table as select... command. If it is the message like unable to allocate extent... something (don't remeber exact phrase) then your datafiles have AUTOEXTEND ON option. Once they extended to take all the space on the disk, you've got the error message. And your log information has probably also noticeable grown as Jack sad in another answer. You can shrink you datafile(s). But should not trash you archive logs (unless of course you want to have you database safe). To get rid of archive log info you may perform a full backup. -- Alexandre Hi! Our Oracle database is installed on second partition of the drive capacity 7GB.

FW: Can we drop and re-create tablespace without deleting the corresponding datafile thru operating system command?
My apologies for excluding the list from my email. Regards Theo -Original Message- Sent: 04 June 2002 09:21 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' corresponding datafile thru operating system command? Sorry for the delay, but this is to our time difference. Please find a more detailed explanation below: Dropping Datafiles and Tempfiles Unlike files that are not Oracle managed, when an Oracle-managed datafile or tempfile is dropped, the filename is removed from the control file and the file is automatically deleted from the file system. The statements that delete Oracle-managed files when they are dropped are: DROP TABLESPACE ALTER DATABASE TEMPFILE ... DROP Dropping Online Redo Log Files When an Oracle-managed online redo log file is dropped its Oracle-managed files are deleted. You specify the group or members to be dropped. The following statements drop and delete online redo log files: ALTER DATABASE DROP LOGFILE ALTER DATABASE DROP LOGFILE MEMBER In Oracle9i Rel.2 you can use the following: AND DATAFILES clause When you specify INCLUDING CONTENTS, the AND DATAFILES clause lets you instruct Oracle to delete the associated operating system files as well. Oracle writes a message to the alert log for each operating system file deleted. This clause is not needed for Oracle-managed files. The following example drops the tbs_02 tablespace and deletes all associated operating system datafiles: DROP TABLESPACE tbs_02 INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES; I hope that this was more helpful.

Another option: make constraint DEFFERABLE and INITIALLY DEFFERED (if i spelled this correctly) In that case inforcement is done on the moment of commit. There is some limitations, however.

RE: Urgent: Retrieving Disk Space
Jack, I had asked the developer to use another table space instead of system, he did that, but when restoring, the backup he missed that and the tables were restored in system table space. The default table space name is STD. I am not sure of the original size of temp table space. As I have understood from Alexendre's message that the system table space has grown in size (one way process), does not actually occupy that much.

I mentioned these files to know if any of these can be deleted/copied elsewhere safely? You MUST move you archive redo logs if you want your database to be recoverable. You need them if you make backups at all. Anyway you should periodically clean up the space for your archive redo logs, or else your database will hang somewhen because oracle will not be able to write log info. If you dont backup, then disable archivelog mode.(I should say: then backup :), but be sure you understand consequences. You should not delete control files and redo log files, of course. How do I check upon the reason of failure of a particular query? The developer recalls that the message was something like low disc space. If you have SQL_TRACE parameter enabled for the whole database, see the .trc files in the directory set by USER_DUMP_DEST parameter.

RE: Upgrade Question
FWIW : Here is what we have been doing to keep a tab on this oraInventory stuff and make 8.1.6, 8.1.7, 9.0.1 releases work on the same server with their respective patches etc. 1) Keep a separate oraInst.loc file for each release, by renaming it (oraInst.loc.816, oraInst.loc.817 etc) so that there is none with default name (oraInst.loc). 2) Prior to installing Oracle s/w, we set ORACLE_BASE to ORACLE_HOME, so that the oraInventory directory for that release is created in the respective ORACLE_HOME. By default it is created in ORACLE_BASE. (As Ron mentioned, there is a Note on Metalink about this. I forget the Note#. Sorry.) 3) Prior to patching a particular Oracle release, we rename the corresponding oraInst.loc.NNN file to the default name (oraInst.loc), set ORACLE_BASE to ORACLE_HOME, run Installer to apply the patch. Also, we create the 'oui' directory within the respective ORACLE_HOME. We let the Java VM stuff take Oracle's defaults. This process adds more work in the steps while applying patch sets. And we do need to *remember* to follow this process. But is has been working fine without any problems. We came up with this process when our patching of 8.1.6.2 aborted for some reason, but it left the oraInventory directory in a corrupted state and prevented me from re-running the patching process. Per Oracle Support, the corruption in oraInventory directory structures is irreparable, and I had to install 8.1.6.0 and start again. Hope this helps...

Re: Complex Integrity Checking
Hi iulian, In the row level insert, update trigger you can log somewhere (in package PL/SQL-table or in other table) changes you are making. Than in the stalement level triggers AFTER UPDATE, INSERT you may perform you checks and raise an exception if needed. You cannot access modified table from row level triggers, but can do that from statement level trigger. And this is the only way to go. Of course, you can check it on Application level, but that's another story. This is not a strait forward way for checking for duplicate values. Try to re-state your requirements. Make use of additional calculated columns maybe, that you can to use regular unique constraints of Oracle. Perhaps, function-based indexes could help you. HTH, -- Alexandre Hi guys.

We have a file that has records in the 6 digit range. I'd like to test the controlfile, but I don't want to load the whole file. Is there a way to tell loader to only load, say the 1st 100 records?

RE: Complex Integrity Checking
I'm reticent about putting the checking code in the application before insertupdate statement, although I'm not sure why. I'm just thinking about concurency and all the implications. On the other hand I wanted to put the bussiness rules on the database side. Anyway, I'll use this approach, you told me, after all. But what if after I check for overlapped intervals, but before inserting, another user insert another record with an interval extending over mine. I know it sounds crazy but I really like to know how this kind of stuff are implemented. That's the way the unique values constraint work, I guess, and I'd like to know more about it. iulian -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, June 04, 2002 6:24 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L maybe I'm being simplistic and I know this will impact performance but why not simply do a select to see if the condition exists before the insert or update? --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I said something like the way the unique constraints work.

RE: Complex Integrity Checking
Title: RE: Complex Integrity Checking I would look into combining a before-insert row-level trigger with an autonomous transaction procedure. The procedure would execute the validating query using parameters passed by the trigger. If your new row values would cause an overlap then return a user defined exception to the trigger. The trigger should trap this exception and cause a failure in the transaction. I think it would work something like this: You attempt to insert an interval that will violate your rule. In the trigger on INTERVALS you pass the 2 :NEW values to the procedure. The procedure queries INTERVALS and sees the table as it existed before your insert but does not cause a mutating table condition (because it's defined as an autonomous transaction procedure.) The procedure finds that the new row will cause an overlap and returns an exception. The trigger receives an exception and propagates it with some meaningful message. The insert fails. Let us know how (if) this works for you.

Oracle Alert on Upgrades to 9.2.0.1
Corruption / Internal Errors Possible after Upgrading a Database to
Oracle 9.2.0.1It is vital that you read this alert if upgrading to
Oracle 9.2.0.1 from an earlier release
Versions Affected
This problem affects Oracle databases upgraded from pre-9.0.1 to
9.0.1.X and then to 9.2.0.1.
Platforms Affected
The problem is GENERIC - all platforms are affected.
Description
Silent database corruption and / or internal ORA-600 errors can
occur if an Oracle database is upgraded as follows:
An object is created in a pre-9.0 database
The database is upgraded to Oracle 9.0.1 (any Patch Set level) and the
object is truncated.
The database is subsequently upgraded to Oracle 9.2.0.1 and inserts
performed on the object. If any previously truncated objects
in the database use FREELIST GROUPS then data corruption can occur in
the above scenario . (FREELIST GROUPS are generally used in Parallel Server
(OPS) or Real Application Clusters (RAC) environments but may exist in single
instance databases.)
Where FREELIST GROUPS are not used freelist corruption can occur which
results in internal ORA-600 errors when the truncated object/s are inserted
into.
Likelihood of Occurrence
There is a strong possibility of hitting this problem for
databases upgraded as described above. The problem is most likely to occur on
heavily used objects and only where TRUNCATE has been used in 9.0.1.
Data corruption can only occur when the truncated object has FREELIST
GROUPS but this corruption can affect any other object in the database.
This problem does not affect automatic space managed segments.
Possible Symptoms
The possible symptoms of this issue include:
Database corruption of any object in the database. Corruption can
occur if an object with FREELIST GROUPS has been truncated in 9.0 as
the bug can leave a freelist entry pointing at space which is no longer part
of the truncated object. In this case an insert into this incorrect "free"
block can corrupt some other database object. Hence a number of different
errors can occur when the affected block is accessed.
For objects without FREELIST GROUPS an insert using the bad
freelist entry is like to result in an ORA-600 [ktsgsp5] or ORA-600
[kdddgb2] error in the inserting session. In this case the actual
freelist is corrupt but the ORA-600 prevents any subsequent data corruption.
Workaround
If you are Upgrading / Planning to upgrade
After upgrading to Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2) the freelists should
be rebuilt for all objects which fit the above scenario, especially if they
use FREELIST GROUPS. This should be done PRIOR to any insert
activity on the database:
Identify any objects using FREELIST GROUPS. These are the most
important objects to rebuild the freelists for if they have been
truncated: SELECT *
FROM dba_segments
WHERE freelist_groups1;
Identify any objects which may have been truncated. The following
query will show objects which may have been truncated in the past (it will
also show indexes which have had ALTER INDEX .. REBUILD used on them, and
similar operations). SET PAGES 1000
SET LINES 200
SELECT object_type, owner, substr(object_name,1,30) object_name,
subobject_name, created
FROM dba_objects o, sys.clu$ c
WHERE object_id!=data_object_id
AND data_object_id=c.dataobj#(+)
AND ( c.dataobj# is null /* Not in a CLUSTER */
OR c.obj# = object_id /* OR is the cluster itself */ )
ORDER BY 1,2,3
;
For each of these objects rebuild its freelists using the
DBMS_REPAIR.REBUILD_FREELISTS procedure, starting with the object which
have FREELIST GROUPS.Eg: execute dbms_repair.rebuild_freelists('SCOTT','EMP',null,dbms_repair.table_object);See
Detecting
and Repairing Data Block Corruption in the Database Administrators
Guide for details of using this procedure. Note that you should rebuild
freelists for all potentially affected objects REGARDLESS of whether they
have FREELIST GROUPS or not. If DBMS_REPAIR.REBUILD_FREELISTS reports
an error for any objects make a note of the details and contact Oracle
Support.
If you have already encountered a corruption
If you have already upgraded and encountered a corruption from
this problem the only solution is to rebuild the affected object/s.
If you encounter the ORA-600 [ktsgsp5] or ORA-600 [kdddgb2]
No data corruption should have occurred - only the objects
freelist is corrupt. It should be possible to rebuild the freelists as
described above. Note that these ORA-600 errors do not mean you have hit
this particular problem - these errors can have other root causes.
Patches
This bug will be fixed in Oracle 9.2.0.2 .
Patches for this bug for 9.2.0.1 can be found on Metalink by

Re: Oracle and Tru64
1. Per Oracle's Platform Strategy Advisory [last updated 28-May-02], Tru64 Unix will continue to be Supported. 2. Per Compaq at http://www.compaq.com/hps/download/Tru64UNIX_OpenVMS_Times_Rev2_052202.pdf from http://www.compaq.com/hps/commitment.html a. HP plans to sell AlphaServers till at least 2006 and support till at least 2011. b. Tru64Unix will sell till at least 2006 and support till at least 2011 [of course, it will be renamed as hp Tru64 Unix]. c. Tru64 features will start appearing in HPUX from 11.23 in 2003 and HPUX with TruCluster and ADVFS in 2004. d. Tru64Unix will NOT be ported to Itanium. It will be HPUX that will go to Itanium.

It is straight PR material, so read between the words as you choose. As I recall, Compaq had already decided not to build the next-generation Alpha chip before the merger arose. If you are interested, I would suggest that you attend the HP roadshow when it comes to a city near you and ask them the hard questions yourself. Having worked for a computer manufacturer in the past, I can assure you that the manufacturer would appreciate it if you bought the last system to come off the production line, then never called them for support. My company plans to continue operating our Tru64 systems for several years to come, and they have provided wonderful service. But we're purchasing new Sun systems. In this session, an HP Executive will highlight the important current and future role HP's business critical and high performance AlphaServer(tm) products play. We will also discuss the latest advancements across the hp AlphaServer product family, the latest on the future Itanium® processor family, and provide an update on the related operating systems strategy. In particular, we will share the updated OpenVMS(tm) roadmap for continued development and support on the AlphaServer platform as well as a review of the progress to date for porting OpenVMS to Itanium®-based systems. Discussion will also include the most up-to-the-minute plans for integrating Tru64(tm) UNIX® into HP-UX on the Itanium® architecture and the continued development and support of Tru64 UNIX on the AlphaServer platform.

Package with DB-Link including recursive function call returns in
we've created a package which analyzes data in a remote database and fills a table with the results of the analysis in the local db. in order to analyze the data across the db-link it's necessary to call a function recursively as shown in the script below. the function GET_PHYSICAL_DATACHANNEL is called recursively. the function IS_EVAL analyzes the data of the remote db using a synonym which describes the db-link. we are using Oracle 8.1.6 at the remote site, and 9.0.1 at the local site, this was also tested with Oracle Version 9.0.1 at both sites. when executing the package the select statement as you can see in IS_EVAL returns the result with the previous p_iDatachannelID, this happens after a couple of regards, Thomas Schmid CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY DBI_PROFILE IS FUNCTION IS_EVAL(p_iDatachannelID IN PLS_INTEGER) RETURN BOOLEAN IS v_iRetCode PLS_INTEGER := 0; v_iState PLS_INTEGER := 0; v_iEvalCnt PLS_INTEGER := 0; BEGIN SELECT count(id) INTO v_iEvalCnt FROM dbi_datachannel_lnk_def WHERE result_channel_id = p_iDatachannelID; IF (v_iEvalCnt 0) THEN RETURN TRUE; ELSE RETURN FALSE; END IF; RETURN TRUE; END IS_EVAL; FUNCTION GET_PHYSICAL_DATACHANNEL(p_iDatachannelID IN PLS_INTEGER) RETURN PLS_INTEGER IS v_fIsEval BOOLEAN := FALSE; v_iDatachannelIDPLS_INTEGER := p_iDatachannelID; BEGIN -- the datachannel represents a evaluation ??? v_fIsEval := IS_EVAL(v_iDatachannelID); IF (v_fIsEval) THEN v_iDatachannelID := GET_PHYSICAL_DATACHANNEL(v_iDatachannelID); ELSE RETURN v_iDatachannelID; END IF; END GET_PHYSICAL_DATACHANNEL; BEGIN -- initializes the package END DBI_PROFILE; / -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Schmid Thomas 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: Complex Integrity Checking
I don't believe that you can check for overlapping interval within a database trigger. For that, you'd need two tables: one to enter interval and one to check against.

RE: Complex Integrity Checking
iulian - If it makes you feel better, write a PL/SQL procedure to do the checking and always call it rather than the table directly. That way you've put your rule in the database.

Re: More parses than eecutes
It is the application code or the interface drivers... For example, if you SQL trace an application executing through ODBC from connect to disconnect, you'll see lots of statements like SELECT * FROM table-or-view where they only parse but never execute. My guess is that the ODBC driver is using those calls to perform rough describes or something of that purpose. I see it more often from the MS-supplied ODBC drivers for Oracle rather than the Oracle-supplied ODBC drivers. The Oracle-supplied drivers tend to query ALL_OBJECTS directly, instead... I don't know if you're using ODBC and MS-supplied Oracle ODBC drivers in particular, but that's one possible scenario. If they're not using ODBC, then the PSFT tools may themselves be doing something similar as a platform-independent way of get descriptions of database objects...? One trick to get good SQL traces from connect to disconnect for specific user accounts: embed the DBMS_SESSION.SET_SQL_TRACE procedure inside an AFTER LOGON database-event trigger (i.e. Oracle8i new feature) for a specific user account. Once created, you can enable and disable the trigger to turn tracing on and off. Just remember to disable (or drop) this trigger when you're done tracing -- otherwise you'll *never* forget the time when you forgot! I learned the hard way, and its a good thing the production DBAs affected were so good-natured about it (beers all around go a long way!)...

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE qlp_proc (file_and_parms IN VARCHAR2)
AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'qlp.main (java.lang.String[])';
/
And it works, but I need to test for success/fail. But if I try a FUNCTION
wrapper:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION qlp_func (file_and_parms IN VARCHAR2) RETURN
NUMBER
AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'qlp.main (java.lang.String[]) return int';
/
I get PLS-00311: the declaration of qlp.main (java.lang.String[]) return
int is incomplete or malformed.
Two questions: 1) Every example I've seen of the wrapper excludes the
brackets from the java.lang.String parameter def, but I can't get a compile
without it. Why? And 2) Anyone know what's wrong with my FUNCTION def?
Desperately needing a good Java tutorial, too!
TIA!

Re:RE: Oracle and Tru64
Peter, Please allow me to disagree. I came from the USAF with a very deep love for DEC hardware and software (VAX/VMS), only to be VERY disappointed by them when I was presented with DEC Ultrix. Their straying into the Unix world was a real nightmare. First off their sales folks over sold the capabilities of the 5000/240 workstation. A database server it was not. Ultrix was a failure right out of the gate. That monster combination was a guarantee that I would get a page every night that it was here and the server a re-boot. It finally took me three years to get a Ultrix tech to admit that they had not implemented a TCP_KEEP_ALIVE capability into Ultrix and that I would never see it. At that time the only path was to upgrade to an Alpha with OSF-1 which was crashing on a daily basis. Oracle back then recommended a cold backup of the database twice a day. One of the soccer dads whose's daughter was on the same team as mine was a DEC/Compaq employee. His recommendation was to stay away from OSF at all costs. He was one of the lucky ones when Compaq sold off the CASE tools operation. Oh how I would have loved moving back onto a VAX, but DEC was not interested in that platform any more and HP's 9000 platform was not only cheaper to acquire and support, but faster and more capable as well. We benchmarked a DEC Ultrix box specifically tailored by DEC to database work against an HP9000 that 'just happen to between owners'. The DEC was a multi processor unit, stuffed with every bite of RAM it could hold, multi scsi ports with load balancing on their (at that time) best disk system and a custom Oracle install with a highly tuned (by DEC engineers) Ultrix kernel. We passed then a dmp file with 1 million rows of data for two tables and 4 SQL scripts to run against the data. Took them all day to get the results. Did the same test with the HP that had minimal RAM, one scsi port and only the internal drives and a default Oracle install and only that tweaking of the HP kernel in Oracle's install manual. Same test ran in 4.5 hours hands down. I left DEC behind at that time, never to return. As of today, I love the HP's I have to work with. I do not believe them to be outclassed anywhere and that they do outclass all in terms of reliability and dependability. I must admit to really enjoying a server platform that does it's job day in and day out for months or years without so much as a burp. I'm sure that part of that are three very good SA's, but the hardware/OS speaks for itself as well. I did not shed one tear when DEC fell to Compaq, and will not now that Compaq is falling to HP.

RE: Complex Integrity Checking
Title: RE: Complex Integrity Checking Iulian, The solution for ORA-4091 is to create two triggers--a row level and a statement level. In the row level you simply record the values of :new.start_time and :new.end_time into a PL/SQL table.

RE: Database link performance
Title: Message Michael, Queries across database link's are notoriusly slow. I've just been thru this and came to the conclusion that you should create views on the source database (in your case db_B) to limit the records to be queried via the db link. I'm not absolutely sure, but in my opinion, any "where" clauses get processed on the local machine. Your example provides further evidence. I would guess that Oracle is bringing all 1.6 million rows across the link first, and then applying the "rownum" clause after the fact. I've had this exact same scenario, except with a more complicated multi-table query where there are millions of rows in each table. When I did not use a view, the query literally ran forever (I gave up). When I created a view, joining all the tables together on the source machine, things worked reasonably well. Hope this helps.

Re:RE: Oracle and Tru64
I worked w/ ultrix, was horrendous! Dec OSF/1 never took off, better than Ultrix but bad unix. Then came Digital Unix, not bad, but still not the best. But I did like the advanced filesystem, esp. cloning filesets, great for quick backups! Gene [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/04/02 03:13PM I never saw Ultrix but have heard other horror stories on this list and elsewhere. My first exposure to Dec was in '93 on the brand new Alpha's running openVMS. 64 bit and VLM long before any other vendor (and long before Oracle supported 64 bit, unfortunately)...and if the DEC wire-heads I worked for were right, a superior implementation of RISC architecture. Later on, we had to migrate our application to OSF which very soon after was renamed DEC Unix...which COMPAQ marketing renamed TRU64. Very fast and reliable.

Hey all,
Trying to get into this new fangled Java thingy in 8.1.7.2.0 on HP/UX.
Simple OS exec test, mostly plagarized:
// qlp.java
import java.lang.Runtime;
import java.lang.Process;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.lang.InterruptedException;
public class qlp {
public static int main(String args) {
int retval = 0;
try {
String lpCommand;
lpCommand = /usr/bin/lp + args;
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(lpCommand);
try {
p.waitFor();
} catch (InterruptedException intexc) {
System.out.println(Interrupted Exception on waitFor:
+ intexc.getMessage());
}
retval = p.exitValue();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return (retval);
}
}
// End of Java code
I run javac to compile it, then loadjava the class file into the DB. I
can then create a PL/SQL procedure as a wrapper:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE qlp_proc (file_and_parms IN VARCHAR2) AS
LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'qlp.main (java.lang.String[])';
/
And it works, but I need to test for success/fail. But if I try a
FUNCTION
wrapper:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION qlp_func (file_and_parms IN VARCHAR2) RETURN
NUMBER AS LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'qlp.main (java.lang.String[]) return int';
/
I get PLS-00311: the declaration of qlp.main (java.lang.String[])
return int is incomplete or malformed.
Two questions: 1) Every example I've seen of the wrapper excludes the
brackets from the java.lang.String parameter def, but I can't get a
compile
without it. Why? And 2) Anyone know what's wrong with my FUNCTION
def?
Desperately needing a good Java tutorial, too!
TIA!

Re: Remove Duplicates
your second query will identify the rowids that are duplicates but will not delete them. You'd have to then go through the exceptions table to actually delete the rows. however, the exceptions table is a good way to get an idea of how many rows will be deleted. If you do have a large number of rows to be deleted that might cause either out of space on the rollback segment or an ora-1555, you can loop through that table and do intermittent commits while deleting. The first query is an all or nothing situation. I've used both ways, but tend to use the delete when it's a small table. --- Terrian, Tom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I know I have seen this posted before...

Re[2]:db link service name resolution via Oracle Names?
Jared, Onames 8.1 did not mess up global names, but it did mess up global database links. In the earlier versions you could specify what service name you wanted to use as a global database link to a server and what account it would loggin to. In 8.1 they made a real mess of that capability so now you've got to define database links in the database once again. Of course if you did not make use of database links before, your probably not affected.

I think that something such as insert into my_table select new_start_time, new_end_time (both constants) from dual (well known view on x$dual) where not exists (select null from my_table where new_start_time between start_time and end_time union select null from my_table where new_end_time between start_time and end_time) should do the trick, making of course wildly optimistic assumptions about indices etc. And you can always check SQL%WHATITSNAME for the number of row processed if you need to keep track of rejects.

Tom Mercadante Oracle Certified Professional -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, June 04, 2002 4:26 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L I think that something such as insert into my_table select new_start_time, new_end_time (both constants) from dual (well known view on x$dual) where not exists (select null from my_table where new_start_time between start_time and end_time union select null from my_table where new_end_time between start_time and end_time) should do the trick, making of course wildly optimistic assumptions about indices etc. And you can always check SQL%WHATITSNAME for the number of row processed if you need to keep track of rejects.

RE: Database link performance
Michael, Did you try this with the DRIVING_SITE hint? (May not help, but worth trying). My understanding is that where a STOPKEY such as rownum is involved, the table (or the result of the query) would be brought across the dblink into the local TEMP tablespace and the STOPKEY applied lare on. What you are seeing is the time for the whole table to be brought across via the DBlink and the condition applied after that. A look at 'V$MYSTAT' for that session should normally show an inordinately large value for 'bytes received via SQL*Net from dblink', and you should also see corresponding waits on 'SQL*Net message from dblink.

custom DD views to allow users to see source without needing exe rights
Good afternoon co-listers, Recently we had a problem with TOAD and I thought I would share our solution. TOAD looks at the views ALL_ARGUMENTS and ALL_OBJECTS to see procedural code. Unless a user has the ability to execute a package/procedure/function, they cannot see the source code through these views, and can't see the source in TOAD. This limitiation is hard-coded in the view structure. Upon reflection, it occured to me that I could recreate these views in the users' schema, customized to remove the necessity of having execute priv to see the code, and since Oracle looks local first during object name resolution, it would probably use these views instead of the data dictionary views. This worked. The two views that I customized are below - feel free to use. jack silvey ALL_ARGUMENTS: select u.name owner, /* OWNER */ nvl(a.procedure$,o.name) object_name, /* OBJECT_NAME */ decode(a.procedure$,null,null, o.name) package_name, /*PACKAGE_NAME */ o.obj# object_id, /* OBJECT_ID */ decode(a.overload#,0,null,a.overload#) overload, /*OVERLOAD */ a.argument argument_name, /* ARGUMENT_NAME */ a.position# position, /* POSITION */ a.sequence# sequence, /* SEQUENCE */ a.level# data_level, /* DATA_LEVEL */ decode(a.type#, /* DATA_TYPE */ 0, null, 1, decode(a.charsetform, 2, 'NVARCHAR2', 'VARCHAR2'), 2, decode(a.scale, -127, 'FLOAT', 'NUMBER'), 3, 'NATIVE INTEGER', 8, 'LONG', 9, decode(a.charsetform, 2, 'NCHAR VARYING', 'VARCHAR'), 11, 'ROWID', 12, 'DATE', 23, 'RAW', 24, 'LONG RAW', 29, 'BINARY_INTEGER', 69, 'ROWID', 96, decode(a.charsetform, 2, 'NCHAR', 'CHAR'), 102, 'REF CURSOR', 104, 'UROWID', 105, 'MLSLABEL', 106, 'MLSLABEL', 110, 'REF', 111, 'REF', 112, decode(a.charsetform, 2, 'NCLOB', 'CLOB'), 113, 'BLOB', 114, 'BFILE', 115, 'CFILE', 121, 'OBJECT', 122, 'TABLE', 123, 'VARRAY', 178, 'TIME', 179, 'TIME WITH TIME ZONE', 180, 'TIMESTAMP', 181, 'TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE', 231, 'TIMESTAMP WITH LOCAL TIME ZONE', 182, 'INTERVAL YEAR TO MONTH', 183, 'INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND', 250, 'PL/SQL RECORD', 251, 'PL/SQL TABLE', 252, 'PL/SQL BOOLEAN', 'UNDEFINED') data_type, default$ default_value, /* DEFAULT_VALUE */ deflength default_length, /* DEFAULT_LENGTH */ decode(in_out,null,'IN',1,'OUT',2,'IN/OUT','Undefi ned') in_out, /* IN_OUT */ length data_length, /* DATA_LENGTH */ precision# data_precision, /* DATA_PRECISION */ scale data_scale, /* DATA_SCALE */ radix radix, /* RADIX */ decode(a.charsetform, 1, 'CHAR_CS', /* CHARACTER_SET_NAME */ 2, 'NCHAR_CS', 3, NLS_CHARSET_NAME(a.charsetid), 4, 'ARG:'||a.charsetid) char_cs, a.type_owner type_owner, /* TYPE_OWNER */ a.type_name type_name, /* TYPE_NAME */ a.type_subname type_subname, /* TYPE_SUBNAME */ a.type_linkname type_link, /* TYPE_LINK */ a.pls_type pls_type /* PLS_TYPE */ from sys.obj$ o,sys.argument$ a,sys.user$ u where o.obj# = a.obj# and o.owner# = u.user# ALL_OBJECTS: select u.name owner, o.name object_name, o.subname subobject_name, o.obj# object_id, o.dataobj# data_object_id, decode(o.type#, 0, 'NEXT OBJECT', 1, 'INDEX', 2, 'TABLE', 3, 'CLUSTER', 4, 'VIEW', 5, 'SYNONYM', 6, 'SEQUENCE', 7, 'PROCEDURE', 8, 'FUNCTION', 9, 'PACKAGE', 11, 'PACKAGE BODY', 12, 'TRIGGER', 13, 'TYPE', 14, 'TYPE BODY', 19, 'TABLE PARTITION', 20, 'INDEX PARTITION', 21, 'LOB', 22, 'LIBRARY', 23, 'DIRECTORY', 24, 'QUEUE', 28, 'JAVA SOURCE', 29, 'JAVA CLASS', 30, 'JAVA RESOURCE', 32, 'INDEXTYPE', 33, 'OPERATOR', 34, 'TABLE SUBPARTITION', 35, 'INDEX SUBPARTITION', 39, 'LOB PARTITION', 40, 'LOB SUBPARTITION', 43, 'DIMENSION', 44, 'CONTEXT', 47, 'RESOURCE PLAN', 48, 'CONSUMER GROUP', 51, 'SUBSCRIPTION', 52, 'LOCATION', 56, 'JAVA DATA', 'UNDEFINED') object_type, o.ctime created, o.mtime last_ddl_time, to_char(o.stime, '-MM-DD:HH24:MI:SS') timestamp, decode(o.status, 0, 'N/A', 1, 'VALID', 'INVALID') status, decode(bitand(o.flags, 2), 0, 'N', 2, 'Y', 'N') temporary, decode(bitand(o.flags, 4), 0, 'N', 4, 'Y', 'N') generated, decode(bitand(o.flags, 16), 0, 'N', 16, 'Y', 'N') secondary from sys.obj$ o, sys.user$ u where o.owner# = u.user# and o.linkname is null and (o.type# not in (1 /* INDEX - handled below */, 10 /* NON-EXISTENT */) or (o.type# = 1 and 1 = (select 1 from sys.ind$ i where i.obj# = o.obj# and i.type# in (1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9 and o.name != '_NEXT_OBJECT' and o.name != '_default_auditing_options_' union all select u.name, l.name, NULL, to_number(null), to_number(null), 'DATABASE LINK', l.ctime, to_date(null), NULL, 'VALID','N','N', 'N' from sys.link$ l, sys.user$ u where l.owner# = u.user# __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Remove Duplicates
Ferenc, I agree with your improvement on the first query but I disagree about your opinion about the EXCEPTIONS method. Especially if there are not too many (in proportion) duplicates you can remove them as follows : create table my_table_dup as select distinct * from my_table where rowid in (select row_id from exceptions); delete my_table where rowid in (select row_id from exceptions); insert into my_table select * from my_table_dup; Granted, not a single shot, but fairly straighforward and relatively easy to follow. The big advantage here is that you do one sort (the SELECT DISTINCT) but it is performed on the limited subset of the duplicate rows. All statements involved perform fast, and the current indexing is pretty irrelevant. Concerning the ADD CONSTRAINT itself, this is the kind of operation where the Oracle kernel guys usually write good code. -- Regards, Stephane Faroult Oriole Software -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Stephane Faroult 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).
