SQLLoader
Hi, I have to load an ASCII dump into Oracle with loader that contains date information in a different national character set than my databse. Can I specify a different nls_lang ( Do an alter session set = nls_lang...) before the load? If so, can you please give me the syntax?

Backup recovery tools for 7.3.4 from 9i
Hello, we have an application running the Oracle 7.3.4 version. We have recently bought the 9i 9.0.1 version. Is it possible to use the 9i backup and recovery tools to backup the 7.3.4. database?

resizing/moving datafiles for performance ??
Guys, the DB is on 8.1.6 / Win2K. there entire DB ( 33 tables and 110 indexes) is in USERS tablespace. the USERS tablespace has only one datafile USERS.DAT of size 12GB. it's on 8 * 10 GB HDD with RAID 5. we are facing performance bottleneck now. V$SESSION_WAIT shows many rows for DB FILE SCATTERED READ and DB FILE SEQUENTIAL READ. all these events wait for USERS.DAT to be read. it's a highly read OLTP site. So,will moving the table and index data to different tablespaces with relatively smaller datafiles ( say 1 GB ) improve performance ? OR since it is on RAID5 , will moving make any difference ? 10-20 MB of data gets added to the DB daily. if resizing/moving improves performance,what should be the size of my datafile ? kindly give me a solution guys.

Re: DB copying : Attack of the Clones!
Hi Kirti Do you absolutely need full size copies? If small referentially correct subsets were suitable you could use our DataBee software to re-create and re-load the test databases as necessary. In other words, you would not need to back up and restore full size databases. You simply press the button and regenerate the subsets when required. Depending on the size of the subset, the refresh would not take more than an hour or two. The load process is quite straight forward - many of our customers just create the initial subset databases and then off load the truncate and reload work to the developers and testers themselves. The DBA's are removed from the loop and because the databases are small the create process is very quick - the developers and testers can refresh their databases whenever they want. Actually, DataBee would clone the full size databases just fine - its just not really designed for that purpose in mind. DataBee: http://www.DataBee.com In any event, you should have a look at our freeware DBATool. It contains (among other things) a rule based schema adjuster that should take care of your requirements to modify the DDL in the test schemas http://www.DataBee.com Thanks Dale Edgar Net 2000 Ltd. [EMAIL PROTECTED] I was 'volunteered' to participate in a task force charged with finding quick solutions (in less than 2 weeks) to support following Dgmt decision: Clone 14 production databases in their entirety for ongoing code testing, recreating production problems etc. BTW, if we decided on any 3rd party tools, then Dgmt wants it installed within the next 4-5 weeks.

If it is, you need to upgrade your software. There is a published exploit against the version of Apache used by Oracle's latest iAS release. Oracle has released a patch which stops the exploit I have built Oracle web servers for years, but I am now of the mind that these things should not be built by DBA's but by webmasters. I am undecided whether to one should go with iAS or construct your own with Apache. The mod_plsql module for instance was not created by Oracle. It and things such as forms server and reports server will run against such a construction. However, we were advised last week that the Windows NT machines will be converted to XP this year. As a result, I started to look at the 9i Internet Developer Suite. About every third line is a statement to the effect that the 9i database, 9 iAS, and 9 iDS are made to work together. I haven't figured out what one is giving up if one builds their own web server and also installs components for the 9 iAS distribution. Is it just convenience? One reason for giving up the convenience is security. An exploit is discovered and possibly published. Apache fixes the problem. If I have built my own I can get the patch from Apache and rebuild the web server. If I'm wedded to iAS I need to wait for Oracle to incorporate the patch into its offering. This could be a matter days to over a week. However weighing-in on the 9 iAS side is the ease of installing a fix. The Apache fix for the aforementioned problem required a rebuild; you need someone wise in the ways of make files and

Hi, Assuming that all of the disk partitions are striped across all of the disk you probably won't see any performance difference wherever you put the files and whatever size you make them.

We had a similiar experience here. I would say that only 10% of the users are really using PowerPlay to its full potential.

Most of the other users bring up canned PowerPlay reports, and tweak a dimension or two. Very few of them build their own reports and drill deep down into the data. I still think it is a great tool.

RE: Sequence number generation
So far we haven't gotten into a problem of locking, there are about 15-20 users of the system. -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2002 8:28 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject:RE: Sequence number generation I really don't see where this method scores over a sequence number. But I can see a number of places where it loses out. What happens when you select from the table and then don't commit the transaction that selected it? You'll still have a gap in your sequence. It's the same as a sequence but with a larger overhead, slower performance and Igor mentioned the possibility of locks on the table stopping the update processes altogether. Just (as they say) my deux euros Mike - Original Message - To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2002 3:38 AM To have a better control, we always use tables for holding counters. Depending upon the requirement, either one table to hold different counters or multiple tables, sometime in master tables as well. This does not any additional coding, the trigger in which you fetch from sequence you select from table. To keep it synchronized with the transaction, we make counter table block HTH! Aleem -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2002 11:48 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: RE: Sequence number generation It is not possible to avoid sequence number loss . If a user requests a sequence number, then ultimately rolls back that transaction, that sequence number is lost . However you can catch such lost sequence numbers programatically and reuse then. that would require a bit of extra coding. -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2002 10:43 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi Is it possible to avoid sequence number loss in the sequence number generation. if so how?
