RE: Overhead Associated with Signon Audit in Financials 11.0
Hi Vicki, We're not running 11.03 (we're on 10.7) and we have auditing running for sign-on audit set for Responsibility (so we get recorded what responsibility they're using). We were running it set for User so that the DBAs could use that information to get back who was running what. In both cases we didn't see an appreciable decrease in performance, though we have less than 100 users who only change responsibilities a couple of times a day (at most). We are running the "Purge Signon Audit data" concurrent manager program daily to keep the FND tables reasonable size but we run a custom program to move some of the data to custom tables for analysis. When we researched it, the consensus at the time was User is best, Responsibility is OK, but turning it on for Forms is a major impact (we didn't test as we didn't need to know which forms people were using).

RE: strange behaviour of sequence

Is the sequence cached? Check out Note:62002.1 on Metalink - Applications
which use Oracle sequences which have the CACHE option enabled will often
'skip' values. This article discusses the cache option, why numbers can be
lost and how to minimize this occurrance. You'll either want to pin it
using DBMS_SHARED_POOL.KEEP (depending on your version of Oracle you may
need a patch to enable pinning of sequences) or not cache it.

Guys,
one of my developers is using sequence to auto-increment the value
of a column while inserting.
he has created a sequence like this.
SQL create sequence testseq start with 1;
and then uses a INSERT statement as below in a JSP.
insert into testtab values ('BREAD'||testseq.nextval);
after some inserts .when he does SELECT from TESTTAB...he
finds
the values as :
BREAD1
BREAD2
BREAD3
BREAD4
BREAD21
BREAD22
it should increment by 1.but it is not so ?
any hint/clue

OT: Metalink patch searches rant
All, I'm so frustrated that I had to rant to the list - my co-workers don't have much sympathy. I haven't been searching Metalink for patches in the last two weeks, but the new search functionality really sucks. When trying to search for Linux patches, I must put in Linux Operating System Family which promptly makes the ONLY release RedHat Advanced Server 2.0. Not right when I want to search certified SuSE SLES7 (or even if I had RedHat, 2.0 is only certified on 9i, not 8i!). Must mean there are only patches for RedHat 2.0 on 9i? Yeah, right. Urrgh! Plus, in the new Beta search, drop downs are a thing of the past - just about every field must be queried separately (those lovely pop-up windows), though supposedly the searches can be saved (haven't tried that yet, no reason to!). I'm sure there are tons of other limiting features to the new search, but I did get a huge laugh when I queried RDBMS 8.1.7 and got 500 patches returned (there are more but it only returned 500) - if you ever wanted an idea of how many patches are out there, there's a good indication. There's only 12 patchset/minipacks, though (lots of patches rolled into one, I guess). I did notice the new Beta search doesn't have an easily found feedback button (it's back on page one), but I did fill out a long gripe to them :) Enough ranting, back to trying to get around the search engines (both newly-fixed-old and new-Beta-2.0) to find the patches I need.

RE: Reasons to upgrade from Oracle 7.3.4 to 8i
Not completely unsupported - plenty of old patches exist and can be downloaded and applied. There's tons of support docs on solving issues aside from applying patches. If the DB crashes (which doesn't happen often as the databases are usually stable and the hardware unchanging) support will work with you to get it back up. BUT if you do have to change hardware or OS, and the DB doesn't work with it, you are SOL (and will get the song and dance from support about only option is upgrade). Many companies are unwilling to invest the money, time and effort to upgrade the DB and application for a stable system, unless they see a ROI that isn't solely related to desupport of the DB. Other reasons to upgrade: ability to upgrade OS and hardware, tools that only work on newer versions, index options (bitmap, etc.).

RE: Metaslink is back up
Yes, but without iTAR access - it's not even on my menu! If I try to access the tar directly I get Insufficient Privileges : You don't have Tar Access Privilege. 'Course I do have access to the silly How to Ensure Uninterrupted MetaLink Access.

Sorta OT: Metalink Humor
Listers, Does anyone else see the humor in this? From the Metalink web site, the top two New Notes topics are this: How to Ensure Uninterrupted MetaLink Access. 17-JAN-2002 N Temporary Interruption in iTAR functionality: US, Canada and Latin America Only! 14-JAN-2002 N And topic How to ensure uninterrupted MetaLink access? has the first line of: The easiest way to ensure uninterrupted access to MetaLink is to use MetaLink. REALLY?? Access is that easy? When it's down, USE it? Hmm Hey, can I try it at 2am this Sunday? No? Oh that's right, the iTar piece is down. But if I use it, it's there, right? Something is missing in logic here... Thank you for using MetaLink! The MetaLink Team Now that I've had my giggle for the day, it's back to work.

RE: Oracle/Server Audit
Jared, You might take a look at https://www.ecora.com/ecora/products.asp. Doesn't look like they cover everything on your list (and more than one module covers what you stated), but I saw an early demo that looked good. Margaret -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, September 24, 2001 3:28 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: Oracle/Server Audit First off, let me state that this post is NOT referring to Oracle Database Auditing. That may be one of the criteria in the audit I'm referring to, but is only peripherally relevant to my question. What I need is a document that can be used to audit a server that one or more Oracle databases are on, audit the setup and configuration of the database itself, as well as an audit of operational items. Here are examples: System: OS version Physical/Logical volume layout. Is it local, SAN, NAS or something else? Backup hardware, software and capabilities. There can be OS specific sections: Unix: Oracle database owner. location of oratab NT: Domain: Failsafe in use? Details if so. Oracle: Have default passwords been changed? Who has DBA access? Who requires DBA access? Is Archiving on? If so, is it setup properly? Operational: OS monitoring, backup and deletion of archive logs? OS level monitoring in place. e.g. disk space, alert.log monitoring, sniped session monitor, etc. Backup/recovery tested? Documented? And lastly, a section with recommendations for all of the above. All comments, suggestions and recommendations are welcome. URL's to document(s) with a fair amount of this already in place are especially welcome, and will be rewarded with a virtual beer, or beverage of your choice. :) Or if I see you at IOUG, a real one.

Oracle's Pricing Change...
http://www.computerworld.com/storyba/0,4125,NAV47_STO61402,00.html Quote Every year, we lower our prices, and we sell more software, Ellison said. This is, in fact, a price reduction from [the power-unit model]. For some configurations, according to figures posted on Oracle's online store, the new per-processor scheme will cut prices by anywhere from 15% to 18% compared with the UPU approach. I thought that was the line when they introduced power-unit pricing ;) Margaret Murray Sr. Oracle DBA Hussey North Berwick 207-676-0330 or 207-676-2271 x330 -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Murray, Margaret INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

Oracle's ftp site
Anybody know where oracle has moved (hidden) their ftp address now? What doesn't work: ftp://external-ftp.us.oracle.com ftp://209.246.5.40 ftp://205.227.44.220 ftp://oracle-ftp.oracle.com In case it helps, the error I get says "An error occurred reading the contents of the folder.

RE: Metalink Again
Sure am!! Can't search - AGAIN. For months now, the search and advanced buttons have not worked (I click on the button, the screen gets busy and 2-15 minutes later it refreshes - no change in the screen - ARG!). My solution has been to go into Forums and use the advanced search link there, but now it reports: "There are no Technical Forums available yet. Try again later or contact us." Anyone else have other work arounds to search??
