9iAS v 1.0.2.2.0 Installation Problem
We are trying to install 9iAS 1.0.2.2.0 on a Dell Poweredge 2650 / P4 2Gig, we have succesfully installed this software in older model machines. When we try to run the installer from the distribuition media we get an error that the installer did not run because it was probably aborted and to run setup again. We bypassed this by downloading the OUI 2.8.18.2 (installer 2.2) and that way we were able to run the installation. Everything seems to run fine until we get towards the end a CMD windows is display and it hangs, we closed it manually. Then a new CMD window is displayed and some script flashes trhough, after this the installation gets to 99% and it hangs. The installer shows that is installing a .gif file and it stays there. Can somebody shed some light on me, and prompt me on a solution path? I spent hours serching through Metalink and havn't found anything that helped. I submitted a TAR, but you guys know it may take a while and I'm pressed for time. T.I.A.. Luis Octavio de Urioste Systems Analyst PH.

RE: should you seperate indexes from tables in seperate datafiles?

Luis -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2003 11:20 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L datafiles? The thing that occurred to me a few years ago (as a result of a test designed by Craig Shallahamer) is that what disks do gets very, very complicated when you add users. On any system busy enough to have a performance problem, the odds are usually slim that a disk is just sitting there waiting for your next I/O call. On a busy system, someone else's I/O call is almost always going to intercede between two of *your* I/O calls. As has been said many times, many ways... - DO separate tables and indexes into different tablespaces. There are lots of reasons you should do this. - DON'T necessarily feel that you have to put the index and data tablespaces on different devices. One decision criterion is performance: don't ever put two files on the same device if the sum of their I/O-per-second rates exceeds the I/O-per-second capacity of the device. Another decision criterion is availability: don't ever put more data on a device than you can recover in your acceptable downtime window. The list goes on...

Index and table access is not as simple as index entry..table row..index entry..table row..etc. I just ran a quick test (which may not be represntative and is using the primary key which can be understood as the row number in physical order of the data blocks) and I found (using the sequence of wait events) that there was substantial access to the index datafiles initially, followed by substantial access to the data datafiles. Then another single access to index, multiple access to data, single access to index, multiple access to data. It seems to me that this pattern is read several index blocks, then access several data blocks, read several index blocks, access several data blocks. This may be due to the sequential nature of the pk in the data blocks. It seems that the most efficient algorithm is to read enough index blocks to set up a list of data blocks to read, then go get them. Since you have the index block pinned, don't waste any resource in releasing the pin to pin the data blocks, then repin the index block. The other issue is that indexes can be accessed using multiblock reads (index fast full scan) and tables can be indexed using single block reads (table access by rowid). Garry Gillies wrote: It's hot here. I wish I was at the beach and I feel like a rant. oracle actually accesses indexes and tables serially Is it just me or is this blindingly obvious? You cannot access the table data until you have completed accessing the index data because the index data contains the location of the table data. During an indexed query on a single table the index will be accessed, then the table, then the index,then the table, then the index,then the table then the index,then the table. If the index and the table are on the same disk then a lot of time will be taken up by head seek movement. If they are on the different disks then the index heads can locate their data and stay there - and the data heads can locate their data and stay there. Less head movement, less wasted time. That is the argument for what it is worth. Real life is of course vastly more complex than this and we are swimming in very muddy waters, which is why there is so much argument on the subject (raid salesmen - spit).

I'm guessing it's expensive, and Computer ASSociates doesn't exactly trip my trigger. I'm trying to find a low-cost ER tool in order to get some simple data modeling done. So far, this is what I've found (VERY briefly): 1) Visio. Needs Enterprise edition. The UI is a pain, as far as I'm concerned. Pain, pain, pain. Cheapest viable option so far at less than $500/user. It can be used for more than just data modeling. 2) Oracle 9iDS. Hugely bloated. Relies on a 3GB (minimum) repository for some stupid reason. Apparently can't buy just Designer, which is all we need. Difficult to get started (concepts and management of workspace, container). Slow on a 2.4Ghz PC w/512MB RAM, although this may be due to me having to create the [EMAIL PROTECTED] repository DB on the same PC. Very comprehensive, though, from what I've seen. Can't access drawings from the OS, since they're (probably) in the repository. 3) No freeware tools such as dia, VisioModeler (pre-MS version of Visio), OpenOffice, or Koffice seemed to be able to draw crow's foot diagrams. 4) Sybase PowerBuilder. Didn't check out the download yet, although a demo of an older version (v6) seems like it would work. Not impressed with Sybase in general and it's probably in the $1Ks/user. 5) Data Architect from TheKompany.com only does physical modelling and their Kivio product doesn't seem to support crow's foot. 6) DeZign from datanamic.com. Haven't downloaded the demo yet, but the single screenshot looks promising. And at $149/user or $119/user for 10 licenses, I'm hoping...

Hi! There's actually more: db_name - identifies database name, has to be the same what is stated in controlfile (using create database or create controlfile). You can have several databases with same db_name in one server, there is no restriction. SID - When we actually want to open and use the database, we have to start an instance whichwill be servicing the database. When starting instance, whe have to specify SID (system identifier) for it. This is actually just a operating system name for instance (or should I say SGA shared memory segments). As you know, SID is specified using ORACLE_SID OS environment variable and is only used by listener, when spawning new processesor when attaching directly to SGA using bequeath protocol. You can not have instances with same SID in one server, even if you use different oracle homes. instance_name - An Oracle parameter for specifying Oracle instance name. Seems that operating system doesn't know anything about it.For example, if you use SID_LIST parameters in your listener.ora, then listener always knows how to spawn processes for given SID, because (almost) all it takes to start another server process, is the location of oracle executable and SID value. But if you want to connect using instance name (not SID itself) then Oracle instance actually has to register itself with listener before any server processes can be spawned. Note that ORACLE_SID and instance_name variables do not have to match. (Tested on 9.2.0.1 on W2K). If my SID is ORCL for example and instance_name is TEST, then I can connect using both SID=ORCL and SID=TEST in CONNECT_DATA section of TNSNAMES (again, the instance name has to be registered with listener). V$INSTANCE still shows SID (ORCL) in instance name fielt. As we know, in OPS and RAC environment you could have several instances servicing one database, this is one ofcommon reasons why db_name and instance_name would be different. (ORCL for db_name, ORC0, ORC1, ORC2, etc.. for instance names for example). Btw, does anyone know if I can have the same instance name in all RAC nodes? RAC shouldn't care much, because it uses instance numbers anyway? service_names - this is an additionallayer for logically spreading work across nodes in RAC (and possibly other load balanced environments such replicated databases and even logical standby). For example, if you have 4 node RAC and have defined two "services" such OLTP and REPORTING, then you could assign OLTP for nodes and REPORTING for one, but during month end reporting you could still keep OLTP on 3 nodes, 1 node purely for REPORTING and add REPORTING to one or more OLTPs as well. So, when user's are connecting, they don't request a specific node or instance, they just request a service. And in load balancing environments then users are directed to instances, where appropriate service is defined. It gives somewhat flexibility, but I've never used it myself (thus my explanation here might wrong ;) Cheers, Tanel. - Original Message - From: AK To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: Wednesday, July 02, 2003 9:49 PM Subject: service name, sid .

Re: !! *Very* important Oracle-L message !!
Hope I'm not too late, Im in $20 to start and a monthly fee if needed. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ok, now that I have your attention, please read the following message from Bruce Bergman, owner of fatcity.com. It concerns the future of this list. Please read the entire message before replying. Thank you. Jared Still ( List Owner ) --- Hello ORACLE-L list members -- I would like to take a few minutes of your time for a State of the Union address, if you can call it that. This is a rather serious message, and I request that you take the time to read this message entirely. I've got a problem that needs resolution this week, and I'm hoping you folks can help me come to a conclusion. This message turned out to be fairly long-winded, so please excuse me for that. :-) Fat City (fatcity.com) is my company, and I am the provider of the list services that you receive ORACLE-L through. I've been hosting Internet mailing lists for over 10 years, and carry quite a few lists, including a big selection of Oracle-related lists (14, in fact). Fat City has always been a labor of love for me. Over the years it has rarely generated any income at all, and it usually does not cover my expenses -- most of the time it is a monthly loss for me. The vast majority of my 60+ mailing lists have been hosted for free, at my expense (as is the ORACLE-L list, for example). Yet I have absorbed these costs because I enjoy hosting discussion lists and I know a lot of lists can't afford to pay for quality service. I am soon to be one of the Rhythms Orphans. Rhythms, my DSL provider, has gone bankrupt and will be out of business by 10-Sep-2001. I need to find another provider of high-speed Internet in order to continue operations. I am at the point of either folding shop completely and going out of business myself, or trying to make Fat City a viable, money-making endeavor. I need to make this decision by this Friday (for financial and planning reasons). After Friday, I am committed one way or the other. My upstream ISP and I are on very good terms, and in fact, I've been a customer of theirs since 1985! As a result, they have graciously offered to help me out of this situation at considerable expense to themselves. I'm not at liberty to discuss the terms of the contract I would engage in with them, but suffice to say that is one of those once-in-a-lifetime opportunities that I'd be a fool to pass up. I have this offer personally from the President of that company, if I want it. Simply said, my ability to take them up on their offer and switch Fat City over to a dedicated T1 or better solution revolves around being able to generate quite a bit of additional income per month, and very soon. In an effort to be open and up-front with you folks about this, I basically need to generate an additional $500 more per month. Right now that seems daunting, but I've been working hard to line up that additional income, and I believe I can do it. Just not right away. My estimates are that it will take me four or five months to come up to that level. I need to get out there and sell website hosting and list hosting packages, and get new customers. That takes time, unfortunately. I need a buffer to enable me to get past this startup phase. After some discussions with Jared (the list owner), and some encouragement from him, I am coming to you to ask for you help in keeping Fat City financially afloat until I can be self sufficient. I'm not asking for a specific dollar amount from anyone, nor am I *expecting* anything from you folks. But if it is within your power to contribute some money towards this end (and yes, I know these are hard financial times for everyone), I am hoping you can help. If I can get sufficient promise of funds that will see me through the next few months, I am willing to jump in with both feet and make Fat City a viable business. If it looks like the contributions are not sufficient to enable me to do that, I will cease operations within the next 45-60 days. Let me be clear about a few things: If I *do* cease operations, I will give all of my lists time to find new list providers, and will make every effort to aid the shift over to the new provider, provide list dumps, archives, mail forwarding, etc. Even though Rhythms goes out of business on 10-Sep-2001, I have secured service until at least 10-Oct-2001 to enable this to happen. So don't worry about having to rush into your conversion if things don't work out. I would also like to clearly state that this is not some attempt to blackmail or coerce anyone into coming up with money. This will either succeed or fail based on what you folks can comfortably and willingly contribute. If I had the ability to cover this startup period myself, I would definitely do so. If Fat City ultimately goes under, it wil NOT be your fault, and

Well, pass the following along to damagement ask them again what they want to do: ** Internet Goes Red The Code Red worm ripped through Internet servers like no other previously unleashed piece of malicious code. We are witnessing Internet history, says Chris Rouland, director of Internet Security Systems X-Force, which tracks Internet vulnerabilities. Based on reports, Code Red has infected over 225,000 servers. The worm enters the targeted server through port 80. If the host is running Microsoft IIS, the worm executes a malformed HTTP get request to try to run a buffer overflow against the Microsoft IIS Indexing Service dynamic-link library. Once the worm successfully exploits the target, it starts searching for new servers to infect, and the compromised Web site is defaced. Code Red's ultimate target was Whithouse.gov. The worm was set to attack the White House Web site July 20 by unleashing a torrent of traffic at the site. According to Rouland, the White House managed to avoid the attack by switching the site's IP address. He says the author of Code Red made a critical design flaw by hard-coding the White House's IP address. That won't happen next time, he warns. When the ILoveYou virus struck last year, many copycats struck in the following weeks. I wouldn't be surprised to see many, many copy cats of this worm, he says.

Re: iAS installation update
Patrice, I've installed 9iAS successfully, what I've done is just run the installer from the CD and on a new machine (virgin OS install) I selected all the defaults, and guess what everything work. In turn 9iAS created an ORACLE home in which there is a 806 and an iSuites directory, apparently when they say the 806 home what they refer to is that directory, the 806 directory seems to be where the tool set (Forms/ Reports) are housed and the iSuites where the Apache server and that stuff is. On a machine with a whole bunch of other ORACLE products, such as DEV 1.6 (FORMS 4.5 / Reports2.5), Designer 2000, Developer 6i and Personal Oracle 8.1.7, I've chosen a different home for each product and everything works fine. Of course a bunch of stuff is duplicated, but who cares Hard drive is cheap, the main thing is that everything works as advertised. When I tried installing everything on default Oracle homes nothing worked and it was a nightmare. My experience from the installs. Good luck Tavo Boivin, Patrice J wrote: FYI, I logged a TAR with Oracle last week or so because one Metalink tech had said in passing that Forms and Reports had to go into its own, separate oracle_home. This follows from a previous TAR I had logged with them, simply asking which products work best together. I had read the installation manual for iAS and had earlier found this: Note: Be sure not to install Oracle9i Application Server in an Oracle_home containing other Oracle products, including the database. Such an installation could overwrite shared components, causing the products to malfunction. (on p. 3-5, 4-5, 5-5). Now, in Oracle Reports Developer Getting Started - Release 6i for Windows, it says: Reports Developer 6i must reside in the default oracle_home. Reports Developer 6i and the Oracle8 or Oracle8i server must reside in separate oracle_Homes, although they can reside on the same physical machine. Similarly, in a web application deployment, Report Server and Oracle Application Server must reside in separate oracle_homes, although they can reside on the same physical machine. (p.1-16) Forms and Reports 6i happen to require an Oracle 8.0.6. oracle_home. This posed a dilemma: how can I install iAS in the default home, when many of its components require access to an origin database. I do not plan to use iAS with 8.0.6., I plan to use it with 8.1.7.. I thought I would have to install Forms and Reports 6i first, remove the tidbits that the Oracle Universal Installer installs by default, then install 8.1.7., and then install the iSuite components. Of course by the end of this tortuous process there were errors. I had a different Metalink technician this time, who told me to ignore what the first technician had said, and to just install iAS based on the installation manual, never mind the other worries that I had. So, I am ignoring the Oracle Reports Developer Getting Started manual, and I am installing based on the iAS installation manual. Hopefully that will work. /begin rant I still wish the Oracle techs could have told me which versions of the various products are concurrent, they just keep insisting that all their products are certified to work together. All I wanted to know was which oracle_home type do the various products use? Forms and Reports 6i requires an 8.0.6. home, Developer6 used an 8.0.5 home, etc. the Metalink techs do not appear to have a list, they didn't understand my question. When I logged a TAR on this I received three e-mails telling me that my TAR had been passed to different people, in the end the last tech told me that products sometimes are released together, but that it is not all that important, because everything is certified to work together. I can't shake the feeling that iAS is a bundle of things that were just slapped together. Seeing the old installer pop up during the installation doesn't help remove that impression. Hopefully when the next release comes out it will install in something other than an (old) Oracle 8.0.6. oracle_home. Since it's called Oracle9i iAS, maybe the Forms and Reports Servers will go into a 9i oracle_home (?). /end rant (this is my impression, not my employer's etc. etc.) Sorry if this comes across as a little harsh.

Re: 16 bit sqlplus cannot connect to PO8i
Rahul, It seems to me that you are having a problem reading the proper TNSNAMES.ORA for the different DBs. What I would do in your situation is to search for all TNSNAMES.ORA files in your PC, since you have products installed in more than one home and more than one version you should have multiple. Edit them and see which ones contain the entries that you need, in one or more of them some entries will be missing, what you can do is copy/paste the missing entries, once you have the file you want then copy it to all the different Homes and you should be able to connect to the different DB's.

Re: Oracle Development Tool
Hi Deepak, This is a good one, we use SQL* NAVIGATOR and TOAD, 2 cents are that on the developer side SQL*Navigator would be a more complete tool, specially if you buy all the bells and whistles available (SQL formatter, Knowledge Base ...), and TOAD would be a better tool on the DBA side of the House. Yes a lot of the functionality is very similar, but the bottom line is that they are two different tools and depends on how you are going to use them. I suggest you download a trial version and call Quest for a technical walkthrough on both of the tools (Engineer on the phone very good and free) then you can make your final decision based on your own experience. Before calling for the walkthrough I would prepare a list of the tasks that you would like to perform or expect to perform in a routine manner and compare the tools based on that list.

Luis,
Don't feel bad, this is a valid question.
DROP USER CASCADE is not always the most efficient way to
drop a user, especially a user with a large number of objects.
I've had that command fail a number of times, and had to rerun
it until I decided there must be a better way.
DROP USER CASCADE can generate a *lot* of recursive SQL,
and therefore can take a very long time. It also eats up system
resources at a prodigious rate.
I've found that when dropping a schema owner, it's much easier
to drop their objects individually, then drop the user.
e.g.
spool '_dropscott.sql'
select 'drop ' || object_type || ' scott.' || object_name ||
decode(object_type, 'TABLE', ' cascade constraints;',';')
from dba_objects
where object_type in ('TABLE','PACKAGE','PROCEDURE','FUNCTION')
and owner = 'SCOTT';
spool off
@_dropscott.sql
drop user scott cascade;
I still include the 'cascade' on drop user to pick up any objects not
included in the above list.
Works for me, YMMV.

WIN2k - Backup
Dear List Members: We are in the planning stage of upgrading from NT 40 to Windows2000 and from 8.0.5 to 8.1.7 and I'm putting my ducks in a row. My question is, has anybody used Win2k Backup to Backup the database ? Can it handle somehow shutting down the DB for cold Backups ? I currently use ArcServIT with the Oracle Agent and it handles the whole "Enchilada".Should I upgrade ArcServIT and keep it? Are there any better Backup Solutions? Any input will be appreciated.
