Re: how to hint a unique index scan?

2003-06-18 Thread Michal Zaschke
You can define the exact index you want to use.

/*+ INDEX ( table [index [index]...] ) */

Is there anyway to hint a specific type of scan? I know you can hint a fast full scan. 

I have something odd happening. I made a copy of a tablespace and transported that copy with in the same instance. So in the one instance. I have two copies of this tablespace.

I have two tables that are 99% identical. IE one has about 1% more records and if you validate the indexes on each they are also less than 1% apart. 

Now in one tablespace an update does an Unique Scan and in the other the EXACT same update does a full scan and runs ALOT slower. I want to mess around.

anyway to force a unique index scan? Both tables are analyzed.

Re: Fixed_date and dbms_job

2003-03-14 Thread Michal Zaschke
Hi,

1) check job_queue_processes and job_queue_interval parameters in your 
init.ora file
2) have a commit after dbms_job.submit
3) if you want the procedure to be executed every second, then the next 
date should be 'sysdate+1/86400' =
dbms_job.submit(:job_num, 'myprocedure;',sysdate, 'sysdate+1/86400');

Hi Listers,

And the sysdate is:

Could you please give me hint how to resolve this

NOT NULL constraint and long parse time

2003-02-07 Thread Michal Zaschke
Hi all,

I had a problem with long parse time on one of my queries and want to know
if it is a bug or what.
Suppose two tables: tab1 and tab2 on my database 9.0.1.3.0. These tables are
both empty. Have a look at the column tab1.col1. The NOT NULL constraint on
it can be defined in two ways:
1) in a create table definition
2) with alter table add constraint

create table tab2 (id number(10) not null, col1 number(1) not null);
create table tab1 (id number(10) not null, tab2id number(10) not null, 
col1 char(12) not null, col2 number(4) not null);
--create table tab1 (id number(10) not null, tab2id number(10) not null, 
col1 char(12), col2 number(4) not null);
--alter table tab1 add constraint cns_tab1_col1 check (col1 is not null);
alter table tab1 add constraint pk_tab1 primary key (id);
alter table tab2 add constraint pk_tab2 primary key (id);
analyze table tab1 compute statistics;
analyze table tab2 compute statistics;


Now I want to execute SELECT:

select tab2.col1, count(tab1.col1)
  from tab2, tab1
  where (tab1.tab2id=tab2.id) and (tab1.col2 in 
(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25))
  group by tab2.col1;

In case 1) the parse time is too long and gets longer with more numbers 
in IN
condition. While in case 2) the parse time doesn't depend on the number of
values in IN condition.

I traced the query in both cases and the only difference was in calling one
more SELECT in case 2) just before executing my query. The query executed
before was:
select condition
from
 cdef$ where rowid=:1

And a note: Without ANALYZE on the tables (or with /*+RULE*/ hint) my query
is quick in both cases.

If you have any info about this behaviour, tell me please.

Thanks
   Mike

Re: Unix script to stop password-protected listener

2002-10-08 Thread Michal Zaschke

Yes, you can change your listener.ora file permission up to 600 on the
server side. In a shell script you can then use encrypted password found
in listener.ora on line PASSWORDS_listener.

lsnrctl EOF
set password C6C144CF750E3CA5
stop
exit
EOF

If the password is not in the listener.ora file, run lsnrctl, set
password manualy and execute SAVE_CONFIG. This will write a line into
your listener.ora file with the encrypted password.

HTH,
   Mike

 Hi ,
We can very well protect the Server side executables by changing the
 permission of the
file . We had implemented this on all our database sites and normal
 user don't have access
to lsnrctl,svrmgrl,namesctl etc .You can also protect the
 listener.ora file by changing the
permission to 770 or 700 as applicable to your environment . The
 sqlnet.ora file need to
be given read access to all and also the tnsnames.ora file (If you
 have not gone for nameserver) .

   SELECT decode(in_value,

  to_char(to_number(in_value) 
   to_number('60')), to_char(in_value/60, '9.99')||'
  hours')
 FROM dual
   /
  
   I'm selecting from dual just until I can get the

   what I'm trying to do even possible?  Any help or

svrmgrl vs. sqlplus

Can anybody say me why? And how to repair it?

Re: FW: insert privilege across db link

2002-01-04 Thread Michal Zaschke

I think that it depends on type of database link you created.
CONNECTED_USER versus CURRENT_USER.
Imagine two users - user A in database A and user B in database B.
User B wants to connect to database A using link and do something...

Now: If the database link is of type CONNECTED_USER then user B
connects to database A as /connected_/ user B so the rights must
be done for user B.
 If the database link is of type CURRENT_USER then user B connects
to database A as a user who owns the trigger (in this case as
/current_/user A).

If I understood you problem clearly it will be better to do database
link of type CURRENT_USER (your public db link in the example is
of type CONNECTED_USER).

Try reading 
http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/server.817/a76960/ds_admin.htm#24406
Maybe it will be clearer. :-)

HTH,

 Ok let's start over.hopefully this will be clearer.
 
 I created a public database link owned by system, system is the user I created the 
database link under.
 
 created in my Production database:
 create public database link ARCHIVE
 connect to system identified by repadmin_pass using 'ARCHIVE';
 
 create public database link PROD
 connect to system identified by repadmin_pass using 'PROD';
 
 User produser which owns the original tables is in the Production database
 User archiveuser owns the archive tables in the Archive database.
 
 Triggers were created under produser in the PROD database so when a delete takes 
place a row is inserted into archiveuser table in the Archive database.
 
 Triggers work fine when A schema tables are in Archive database.
 
 I need to grant some sort of insert permission but how.  Grant insert on atable to 
A@PROD doesn't work
 tried to grant insert on all tables to A, didn't work either.
 
 I get a permission error when the triggers are fired

Oracle9i Error within Cursor

2002-01-03 Thread Michal Zaschke

Hi all,
  I wrote a script bellow. If it is run on Oracle 8 it runs fine and
gives me all the result but on Oracle 9i it returns the error ORA-06502.
Can anybody tell me please why?
I have found a workaround - instead of
select col||'x' colu from tbl union select col colu from tbl;
use
select col||'x' colu from tbl union select col||null colu from tbl;
But it doesn't tell me, why the first statement doesn't work on 9i.

Thak you for your responses.

Mike


script
set serveroutput on
create table tbl (col varchar2(1));
insert into tbl values ('a');
insert into tbl values ('b');
select * from tbl;
select col||'x' colu from tbl union select col colu from tbl;
declare
  cursor cA is
select col||'x' colu from tbl union select col colu from tbl;
begin
  for vA in cA loop
dbms_output.put_line(vA.colu);
  end loop;
end;

Tables and indexes on different disks

2001-03-13 Thread Michal Zaschke

Hi all,

I've read an interesting section in Oracle Docu (Tuning I/O):

---
Separating Tables and Indexes

It is not necessary to separate a frequently used table from its index.
During the course of a transaction, the index is read first, and then
the table is read. Because these I/Os occur sequentially, the table and
index can be stored on the same disk without contention. 
---

Why do you then recommend to separate tables and indexes to different
disks?

Thanks
Mike
