nls_sort

2003-09-29 Thread GKor
hi all

we had a strange sort order on a attribute in a table with dashes (-) in the
data.

example

query with default NLS_SORT (NLS_LANGUAGE=american)

R/10-02 
R/1-01  
R/101-00
R/101-03

query with NLS_SORT=BINARY

R/1-01  
R/10-02 
R/101-00
R/101-03

Anyone with an explanation why this parameter is not default BINARY ?


thanks

RE: composite primary key versus unique index

2003-07-10 Thread GKor
i did exactly the first thing you named.

 RE: composite primary key versus unique index 
---BeginMessage---
You mean you created an index A on the table with the descending column
order, and then added a primary key constraint, which created another index
on the same columns (except that all the columns are in ascending order).
Or did you do something different? If you did something different I'd be
curious to know exactly what you implemented.

 i didnt that try on Oracle, but our mainframe Rdms. We have 
 that situation
 there with the ascending en descending attributes in the primary key.
 The workaround is to create a unique index (with and without desc) and
 create afterwards a primary key constraint on it in oracle.
 we have oracle 8.1.7.4.10. (including patches)

 I don't understand how you can have those types of objects created.
 
 Let's assume this situation:
 
 create table T (a number, b number, c number) ;
 create unique index t_pk on t (a asc, b desc) ;
 alter table t add (constraint t_pk primary key (a, b)) ;
 
 In 8.1 and later, the third statement (add constraint) will return an
 ORA-0955 error because Oracle is unable to build the index 
 needed for the
 primary key constraint.
 
 In 8.0 and earlier, the desc keyword will be ignored in the 
 create index
 statement, so there will be no reason why you cannot create 
 the primary key
 constraint and foreign key constraints referencing that primary key
 constraint.
 
 
 Now, in 8.1 and later, if the index and the PK have different 
 names, like
 so:
 
 create table T (a number, b number, c number) ;
 create unique index t_idx1 on t (a asc, b desc) ;
 alter table t add (constraint t_pk primary key (a, b)) ;
 
 then the third statement (add constraint) will create a 
 second index on the
 table named t_pk, and again you will be able to create foreign key
 constraints referencing the primary key constraint.
 
 What version of Oracle are you running, and could you describe the
 tables/indexes/constraints involved?

 I have the following question for you :
 We have a mainframe database with tables which have composite 
 primary keys
 with an ascending and a descending item.
 For example a table with license regisitrations with primary key items
 LICENSE in ascending and REGISTRATION_DATE in descending order.
 As far as i know this is not possible with Oracle, only a unique index
 should be a candidate to do this. 
 I said should be, because if you need a foreign key relation to this
 specific composite index i get an ORA-2270 !.
 Anyone with an explanation why a create of a composite unique 
 index with an
 ascending and descending order works and not with the primary 
 key clause ?
 Is this triggered in oracle 9i or 10i ?

RE: fine grained access

2003-07-03 Thread GKor
thanks all for your quick replies. I think i will write a few triggers to do
the trick.

 Re: fine grained access 
---BeginMessage---
Hi Arup,

LogMiner is fine for certain tasks but not for auditing everything, it
has some deficiencies such as it cannot be used in an MTS environment as
it uses PGA memory, it doesn't fully support chained and migrated rows
(fixed in 9i), doesn't support selects (as they are not recorded in the
redo prior to 9i), doesn't fully support objects of analysis of IOT's or
clustered tables. 

But I do agree with you that the best solution is to use regular audit
or normal user triggers.

If the poster wants to use Fine Grained audit then there are a few links
to some good documents on my site http://www.petefinnigan.com/orasec.htm
that cover FGA.

kind regards

Pete

However, FGA is bit of an overkill in your case. It's typically the only
solution for auditing the seelct statements. For changes
(insert/update/delete), you could employ the regular auditing (AUDIT). that
will tell you who changed something, but not what. To see the what, you
could use log miner to unearth those statements with the data.

Yes, the database is down while doing this.

Opening the database and creating a controlfile works,
but I really didn't expect recovery on an 8.0 database 
to work with 8i executables.

with a number(5) datatype and a cobol  definition pic s9(5) comp-5 we don't
get the error message.
i read in the oracle manuals that there is no representation for the NUMBER
datatype in COBOL.
Anyone with an explanation ?

X_$KGLCURSOR view

2002-09-18 Thread GKor

hi everyone

anyone where the sys view X_$KGLCURSOR is being created ? I have several X_$
views on that particular scheme.

strange is that these views not appear on all servers, so i don't think
these are created via catalog or catproc procedures.

this is a oracle 8.1.7.0. install on a windows nt4 platform.

thanks

 That's why you use write cache only if it's battery supported.  Then it

  I'll take a shot at this.
 
  Don't have any write caching.  Oracle may think that it has safely
  committed the transactions and they are written to disk when they are in
  fact only in cache.  If the machine were to shut down ungracefully,
 i.e.,
  someone kicks out the plug, then your database would not be in a
 consistent
  state.  Granted, the odds are small, but is it worth the risk?  If the
  database is archived and you don't mind the increased chance of having
 to
  do a recovery then I would say 0% read - 100% write.  Oracle is doing
 it's
  own read caching in the SGA and it's unlikely that the disk cache will
  correctly anticipate Oracle's read requirements.  Therefore, caching on
 the
  read side is only likely to increase IO.  Write caching does not lead to
  any increased IO but it does have some small risk of producing an
  inconsistent database.

 The answer depends on what O/S you are on.
 
 Unix :
 When the oracle software was installed you where asked about a Unix 
 group (normally called dba) that has privileges
 this group is then compiled and linked into the Oracle executable.
 When member of this group you can connect with / as sysdba and 
 from there grant sysdba to the user
 
 NT :
 Since it is not possible to relink the code on NT the group is hard 
 coded to ORA_DBA on NT/W2K
 When member of this group you can connect with / as sysdba and 
 from there grant sysdba to the user
 
 VMS :
 Here it is a system logical that i don't remember the name off (

 When having this logical set you can connect with / as sysdba and

Rman issue with oracle patch

Hi list

The setting :   A NT server upgraded to Oracle 81732 with the target
database installed on it.
A NT server with Oracle 81730 and the RMAN catalog
installed.

i did the following after applying the 81732 patch

After creating/installing new oracle and rman executable user should do 
 the following 
  sqlplus '/ as sysdba'; 
%ORACLE_HOME%\rdbms\admin\dbmsrman.sql 
%ORACLE_HOME%\rdbms\admin\prvtrmns.plb 
 If using catalog, then they should upgrade the catalog 
   rman catalog user/passwd@alias 
   upgrade catalog; 
   upgrade catalog;
this was executed with the new rman executable just installed.

After that the hotbackup fails with the following error messages :

 Onderwerp:Re[2]: os block size versus oracle bock size
 
 WHOA, No that is not a performance problem.  The Oracle block size needs
 to
 always be a multiple of the OS block size.  Most operating systems today,
 W2K
 being no exception, do not simply read the number of OS blocks that you
 request.
  They always 'read ahead' in the anticipation that you'll want that data
 in the
 very near future.  The amount of read ahead that is done is OS specific. 
 Therefore if your Oracle block size is = the OS block size the operating
 system
 will be doing a lot of reading for you that is irrelevant, which can lead
 to a
 phantom performance problem namely your wasting OS reads.  The idea here
 is to
 pick an Oracle block size that is appropriate for your application and a
 multiple of the OS block size.  Also set db_file_multiblock_read_count
 carefully
 since this controls the number of blocks that Oracle requests from the OS
 at one
 time.  If you need one block and have db_file_multiblock_read_count set to
 100,
 then you get 100 blocks, if the OS allows.

 Hi
 
 
 I'd say yes. For every Oracle block read the OS has to read two block
 which
 causes overhead.

external authentication issue

2001-09-26 Thread GKor

Hi everyone

We introduced external authentication on windows 2000.

I had the following init.ora parameter set 

REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE = EXCLUSIVE
OS_AUTHENT_PREFIX= 
and i forgot to set REMOTE_OS_AUTHENT = true.

connect with a / didn't work (of course).

I searched on Metalink and found 2 possible causes

the REMOTE_OS_AUTHENT = true parameter was not set in init.ora
and the SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) was not set in sqlnet.ora
(server and cliënt)

I set both parameters and stopped/started the database, but connect / did
still not work
(invalid username/password was the message).

When i change SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES in (NONE) (the default value)
it WORKED!!

Can anyone explain to me why SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)  doesn't
work as described
by Metalink.

Thanks in Advance

public roles urgent

2001-07-23 Thread GKor

Hi everyone

I have the following situation :
oracle 7.3.4. on windows NT 4.0 sp5


I have a public role with several grants in it.

Then i revoked the role from public today , after that i granted the role to
public.

Several users are complaining about the follwing  : ORA-00942: table or view
does not exist

The user still has the public role (via user_role_privs) but doesn't see the
granted tables.
When i drop and create the user everything is ok.

Does anyone has a clue why this happens and how i can eliminate this without
dropping the users.

RE: Function based index - insufficient priveleges

2001-05-28 Thread GKor

hi 

i found this on metalink

the proper privilege required to create function-based indexes.
Connect as dba and provide the user with the privileges required to create a
function based index.
If the user is creating indexes in their own schema: 
SVRMGR grant query rewrite to ;
 If the user is creating indexes in schemas other than their own: 
SVRMGR grant global query rewrite to ;
