Re: RE: Oracle 11i new features
Better still!! Maybe they will call everything (database/iAS/JDeveloper/IDS) 11i :) Cyril On Sat, 31 May 2003 John Kanagaraj wrote : Nope! - Oracle 10i will be the end of the world (as Oracle knows it at least :) since we already have an Oracle 11i (aka Oracle Applications 11i - but generally known in the ERP world as Oracle 11i or Apps 11i). Fyi - it mutated from Apps 10.7 to Apps 11.0.x and now to Apps 11.5.x - the 'i' replacing the 5 here.

Re: Re: thanks all/OCP
Hi, I am sorry if I sounded discouraging.

I personally think OCP has lost credibility for the following reasons a. People are known to get through using the 'jack pot method' (ie close ur eyes and pray and click the option!) b. People are known to sms the answers!!! c. Finally everyone in the industry seems to know that if not the 1st attempt atleast by the 3rd attempt people 'have to get through' Stuff like the above have made interviewers all over wary of OCP candidates who mouth a lot of jargon without the necessary experience. This creates a unique problem where a candidate is likely to have a 'false sense of confidence' just because he 'read something somewhere' and this makes it difficult for the interviewer to 'imagine the candidate in his team working on workarounds ;)' and difficult for the candidate to 'learn' So the interviewer is likely to take the 'safe option' of hiring a guy who has 'genuinely worked 10%' at 10% pay rather than hire a guy who has 'genuinely worked 10%' done OCP (10i!hahaha) and expects to be paid 100% and has airs :( All the best Cyril PS: By the way Oracle claims that OCPs get paid more...

We did miss Eric 'Google-gunner' Pierce though! Starting off with a first round of free drinks from Ari (c/o Expand Beyond - thanks Ari!), everyone settled in to talk and listen and order and eat, amidst swapping stories of glory and honor and sleepless nights recovering the Db as well as horror stories of layoffs and interviewing clueless candidates. Also swapped were details of X$ tables and other UNIX internal structures (who can do without those!) as well as hunting and other adventure trips. Ari showed us some cool toys (were there more than two Pocket PCs on you, Ari?) and we all 'Oohed' and 'Aahed' over them.. Steve A's birthday was celebrated in usual Chevy's style with the gift of a straw hat and special birthday-boy dessert (although he claimed that his birthday was actually today as per Australian time!).

Licensing! Again!!

Re: Re:Driving table
hi Firstly, can we please keep this online?

Thanx PS: sorry If i missed this...in some earlier post.

In general you can use this in both CBO and RBO, since in my experience doing things well for RBO has no ill affect on CBO. The table order in the 'from' clause should match the order in the 'where' clause. Since Oracle reads a statement backwards, bottom to top, left to right, the last table listed in the 'from' clause should have the most restrictive and therefore the last condition in the 'where' clause. The reason for caring about the driving table is that the rows returned from that table drive the remainder of the query. So if you can return the least number of rows from that table you then have less work to do thereafter. If you want a more detailed discussion, can we take it off-line. Dick Goulet Reply Separator Author: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 4/6/2001 2:45 AM Hi friends , I have got some query regarding , how the query is exactly executed ?? We always take joins and if we see the plan of the query , there is always one main driving table . Some times I get feeling that , in the join the right most table is the driving table . But that is not always true , this is my observation from several plans . In Oracle documentation alos ita mentioned that ( Server Concepts, 815 or 816 : Optimisation of Joins ), "one driving table is selected" , but at least I cannot makeout which of the several tables will be selected as driving table . What can be the potential criterions of selecting a driving table ? Please , if you all can throw some light on the same or can redirect to some document , that would be great .

Re: Re: SUN vs. HP
HI.. can someone please tell me a 'bit more' about HP does it follow the 'basic tenets' of UNIX or is it a 'freak deviant' version of UNIX (like AIX!!!).. For starters what is service guard please? is it a cluster software? or RAID software to handle disk boxes? How 'different' is HP unix from Solaris?

If we tune the OS and DB then we can get maximum performance. One word of caution is that, if u use Mc Servicegaurd then u shud go for OPS. Which works for only on RAW partitions. Administration will not be a easy job. Instead go for AutoRAID box which HP has got. It converts itself bet RAID5 and RAID1/0. My recomendation will be for RAID10, where u have disk mirroring,stripping and protection for Data and better performance. I have not worked with SUN. But i have heard that the native code,compilation and testing of oracle is in the SUN OS. But HP is also a good OS.

fast_start_io_target and log_checkpoint_interval
Hi! is there any difference in the way oracle processes FAST_START_IO_TARGET and LOG_CHECKPOINT_INTERVAL apart from the fact that fast_start_io_target gives us a measure of no:of i/os required for instance recovery and log_checkpoint_interval gives us the number of o/s blocks required for instance recovery. My question is, if both r 'MORE OR LESS' doing the same thing, why the 'redundancy'??? surely am I missing something here... Kindly correct me..

RAM usage
Hi, I am sorry if I missed out the reply to this or amy 'repeating' the question But can someone help me please? I am trying to find the 'exact' amount of memory consumed out of the RAM by each Oracle process. The Oracle manual says that , "NOT ALL of the memory displayed by ps command is due to PGA" some of it is Oracle code (is it Oracle executable?) Can someone please tell how to estimate the amount of memory required? ie how much PGA? how much Oracle code? how much overhead etc? Thanks a lot PS: Please note that the above exercise is not academic and is urgently required by me to order for RAM _ Chat with your friends as soon as they come online.
