Point-In-Time recovery question, Non-RMAN solution
Hi DBAs, Oracle 8i, ArchiveLog, No RMAN Testing Point-In-Time Recovery I am confused on what time to substitute in the RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL TIME 'timestamp'; For example 2 days ago 11/04/2003 approximately 17:00 I drop a table. Today I decide I want that table back. I want to do an incomplete recovery to get the table back. How do I know what timestamp to use? I have an idea the I dropped the table but not exact. 1. SHUTDOWN Normal 2. BACKUP current database 3. Restore datafile that has the table in it. 4. connect internal 5. startup mount 6. recover database until time 'timestamp??'; 7. Alter database open resetlogs; 8. BACKUP current database Step 5 is my confusion. Also I assume all data is now lost since last archive restored to the present. The only way I know to get that data back is to 1. Export the table that was dropped. 2. Restore database from step2 3. Import table from step1 Is there better ways.

Re: C program won't run in 9.0.2.3
Ruth,
Just to be clear you are pre-compiling(not compiling) under 9.0.2.3 and
compiling with same C compiler then linking with new 9.0.2.3 libraties. OS
is the same.
Obviously the contents of sqlca.sqlcode memory location is getting stomped
on as 1093480496 is garbage. I would not think the sqlca data structure
would change. I am assuming the code below is immediately following your
EXEC SQL statement. Are you doing any select...into where you may be
getting a buffer overflow. I know this is code that is probably unchanged
and you just want to precompile/compile/link in new Oracle environment,
these
are very hard to find.

Re: What is _NEXT_OBJECT
According to MetaLink _NEXT_OBJECT is a hidden entry in obj$ which determines the next object id to be created. It shouldn't be seen in DBA_OBJECTS. The fact that it is seen in ALL/USER_OBJECTS is a bug, 691329 fixed in 8.1.7. It will not harm anything.

RE: ora-600 when analyzing IOT
Igor,
When you gather statistics on an IOT with the ANALYZE command, it will
analyze the primary key and overflow segment so I would think
this is all that is required by CBO. Hopefully others have more insight.

Now, similar statement analyzing other IOTs works fine.
Also, on the same table (ipn_measurement) analyze worked fine yesterday,
and the table didn't grew too much since yesterday.
Any ideas?
Another question, do I really have to run analyze table on IOT for

because analyze index still runs with no errors.

RE: ora-600 when analyzing IOT
I am not sure but based on the definition of an IOT I would think you would
have to ANALYZE TABLE since the primary key data is not duplicated in
a separate index.

RE: ** is there PL/SQL for case
Starting with Oracle9i, PL/SQL supports the use of case statements and case expressions. These constructs are often convenient to use in place of complex if-then-else logic and function similarly to counterparts in other languages (e.g. the C switch statement). Case statements are standalone statements that can appear anywhere any other PL/SQL statement can appear. Case expressions are similar to case statements, but return a value and can only appear in places where any other PL/SQL expression can appear.

How to prevent single point-of_failure with ONAMES
Hi All, Oracle 8.1.7.4 Win 2000 ONAMES with region database I have ONAMES repository on server1 I have 2 additional onames services on server2 and server3(no database/repository). I received a NNO-50 serious errors in configuration data. I do not know how it happened but I had to truncate and reload nmo_master and the 3 onrs_* tables. However this error caused a single point-of-failure. None of the oname services on all 3 servers would start. I was under the impression under these circumstances that Oracle would use CHKP* files.

RE: How to prevent single point-of_failure with ONAMES
What had happened was the data in the table onrs_region got corrupted but the region database was still up. Somehow this caused all 3 name services to shutdown on all 3 servers. I do not have a clue how that is possible. There were checkpoint file on all servers but still no one connected. Perhaps the corrupted data got replicated to the other servers. The only error was the nno-50. Thanks Rick Jesse, Rich [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] world.comcc: Sent by: Subject: RE: How to prevent single point-of_failure with ONAMES [EMAIL PROTECTED] m 04/01/2003 10:18 AM Please respond to ORACLE-L Wierd. Our primary ONAMES server is 8.0.5 on OpenVMS, with the Region DB being on the same box. Our secondary ONAMES server is 9.2.0.2 on WinTuke using the same Region DB as the primary (amazing that 9iR2 can still use an 8.0.5 Region DB). Yes, we are working on upgrading this config, despite it being extremely stable due to non-support by Oracle Corp. One upon a time, a controller on the primary ONAMES / region DB server puked, causing the server to crash. While it was down, all Oracle Net connections eventually failed over to the secondary ONAMES server, which was indeed using the local checkpoint files for names resolution. It worked well with the only downside being that the clients had to wait for a TCP/IP timeout on the primary ONAMES server until it failed over to the secondary, but at least connections were able to be made. So when your primary failed the secondary/tertiary failed, too??? You stated that they wouldn't start, as though they hadn't been running. If they hadn't been running, there's probably no local checkpoint files, which I would think would prevent them from starting successfully. Were there any error messages?

RE: 100% CPU utilization, urgent
Lisa, To get info at the thread level and determine what thread within a process is consuming the most CPU you have to use something like performance monitor or Process Viewer. Using Performance monitor you want to choose THREAD from the performance object drop-down and choose ID Thread from the counter list.. In the instance list box you will see a separate line for each oracle thread showing the instance # of the thread. You can choose any/all of the threads and then choose ADD. The value now in the performance monitor will show you the actual thread ID that you can match to the SPID column in V$PROCESS. For ex. SELECT s.* FROM v$session s, v$process p where p.spid='spid_in_perf_mon' and p.addr=s.paddr; Rick Koivu, Lisa Lisa.Koivu@efair To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] field.com cc: Sent by:Subject: RE: 100% CPU utilization, urgent [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/20/2003 10:36 AM Please respond to ORACLE-L Thomas, thanks for your post.

Re: Rebuilding Indexes...
If you know you have 3 duplicate records in the table then the PK must have already been disabled so you have to rebuild anyway. I do not see where you had to disable in order to use the exception table. It was already disabled therefore it probably not an app problem but a disable constraint problem unless direct load bypasses constraint checking which I am not sure. Rick Rachel Carmichael To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] wisernet100@y cc: ahoo.comSubject: Re: Rebuilding Indexes... Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] om 12/27/2002 07:43 AM Please respond to ORACLE-L Here's a reason: have you ever tried to find the three duplicate rows in a 12 million row table without using the primary key constraint? I've had to disable or drop the constraint in order to use the exceptions table. Once I do that, even if I've built a separate index that enforces the primary key constraint, Oracle drops the index. So I HAVE to rebuild it. If I allow the index to be rebuilt when I re-enable the primary key constraint, it builds it in the default tablespace of the table owner, not where I want it. if anyone has a better way to fix this problem, I'm more than happy to hear it! It's a data warehouse and the third party app has a bug we can't find and on occasion sqlloads (via direct path) duplicate rows Rachel --- Jared Still [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Though I have published a script for determining indexes that need to be rebuilt, and then rebuilding them, I have to say that this is almost never necessary.

Re: best case scenarios for export/import
First of all you have to have an estimate on how long the import should take. Oracle rule-of-thumb formula for that is import elapsed time = export elapsed time X 4 At least you have a targeted time to shoot for then try to improve if necessary.

Re: import and rollback segments
If you cannot take the small ones offline, I do not think you can force to use a particular RBS. You could possible create multiple large RBS then take smaller ones offline then import. After completion put smaller ones online. You can try commit=y to commit after each buffer instead of each object. Use a larger BUFFER size on import to reduce round trips to export file. Perhaps others have some tricks Rick Leonard, George george.leonard@fa To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] rnell.com cc: Sent by: Subject: import and rollback segments [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/20/2002 08:09 AM Please respond to ORACLE-L Hi all Can a person somehow force a import process to use a specific rollback segment.

ORA-2083 DATABASE name has illegal character '-'
Hi,
Oracle 8.1.6.0.0 NT 4.0
I have the following logon trigger. It works fine as long I insert into
local table. If I try to insert into a table across a database link the
record get inserted but upon exiting the app whether it is

have exact same environment and it works Ok. It fails
on 3 other identical environments. Anyone heard of any possible bugs using
database link in logon trigger? I search metalink and google but
no such reported error.

Re:
I would recommend a restore because you are going to backup for applying a patch anyway RIGHT? Logminer would do nothing as far as the OS files getting overwritten by applying the patch. Rick Scott Stefick sstefick@harper To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] .cc.il.us cc: Sent by: Subject: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/03/2002 02:21 PM Please respond to ORACLE-L Gurus, I was just given a project to maintain a Computerized Maintenance Management System. When I asked the companies support staff how to roll back patches in the backend Oracle Database (Ver. 8174), they said that there was no way to do this. I'm guessing I could use logminer just incase a patch doesn't work. Would this be a good solution, or are there other (better) ways of safeguarding myself when it comes to patching?

Re: Partitioning
Is there a single column/value that you could do LIST partitioning on instead of range or hash? Rick Rishi.Jain@VerizonWi reless.com To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent by:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Partitioning 11/19/2002 02:38 PM Please respond to ORACLE-L We have a table with around 80 million rows. The table has been partitioned by hash as there is no clear way of partitioning depending on range etc.. The data is very unevenly distributed in these partitions. Some of them even have 3 times the number of rows as compared to the other partitions. This application is being ported from Informix to Oracle (9i R2). In informix the dba's had partitioned the table based on a function . He was taking the mod of the number ( dividing by 10 ) . The values were then placed in either of the 10 partitions ranging from 0 - 9. This really gave us very good distribution of data .Can we achieve something similar in 9i with list partitioning.

RE: New development in Cobol or PL/SQL - please help
Babette, If they are a Cobol shop then there is nothing wrong with using Pro*Cobol. I disagree with your statement about using PL/SQL for the business logic. I personally think you should put as much of that in the database. Rick Mercadante, Thomas F To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED][EMAIL PROTECTED] ate.ny.us cc: Sent by: Subject: RE: New development in Cobol or PL/SQL - please [EMAIL PROTECTED]help 11/18/2002 08:03 AM Please respond to ORACLE-L Babette, The decision really comes down to the organization. If they see themselves as *never* leaving the Cobol arena, and they have an ample supply of Cobol programmers, then they should stay with it. What you could do is to make friends with the applications people, and show them how PL/SQL works. What you will find is that they will take to PL/SQL like a fish to water. And pretty soon, more and more PL/SQL packages will be written that are simply called by the Cobol programs. Cobol would then be a simple entry point to the database - able to interface nicely with the operating system (reading and writing flat files, producing reports and forms), while the majority of the logic may be written in PL/SQL. Maybe, just maybe, the person making the decision see's no benefit to using PL/SQL. And given your local labor market, maybe he's right!

I understand the reason we are using Oracle is that the director has 15 years experience with it and loves it. Aaargh!!! thanks Babette May I play the devil's advocate? Even if Pro*Cobol seems to be a weird choice, there may be a case for not coding the logic in PL/SQL : database portability.

Re: Data modeling question
Jared, Yeah, It may be just a design issue but not quite sure. I was referencing from a document Data Modeling: It's Really All About the Relationships by Dr. Bert Scalzo of Quest Software. Data modeling is part of the conceptual design phase. When speaking of the E-R methodology, the data model produces 1. E-R diagram which represents the data structures in some type of graphical form. The second component is the data document which details the data objects, relationships, and database rules. Here is where I think it could be argued both a modeling/design issue. I certainly see some merit in your reasoning. I agree the use of surrogate keys would prevent this. I do not know why this was not mentioned by the author.

The FK can't be enforced on a multipart key if one of the columns is null, obviously. At least, I *think* it's obvious. What happen when you try to update column b in table 2 with a valid value? with and invalid value? There's a good case here for using surrogate keys, as always. That way, invalid values cannot be put in an FK column, since there is only one column needed to reference the foreign PK.

Now they are switching to Java and in future projects will be implementing RI in Oracle, so I'll have to be more careful about that. Dennis Williams DBA, 40%OCP Lifetouch, Inc.

If you drop table1, you lose them all Rachel --- DENNIS WILLIAMS [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Deepak, If there are many columns on these tables, your method may be best. However, this will generate a lot of redo. You can usually accomplish this with a CTAS nologging, which won't generate redo. If you really don't want to change the location, you can: create table temp as select * from table1 nologging drop table table1 create table table1 (column, column . . . ) as select * from temp nologging drop table temp Dennis Williams DBA, 40%OCP Lifetouch, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, October 24, 2002 3:15 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L We have a need to change the datatype of several columns in a table from number to varchar2. Most of the rows have data in these columns hence a direct 'alter table ...' will not work. We plan to create a temp table, move the data from these colums to that table, modify the column datatype from number to varchar2 and then update the colums with the data that was moved to the temp table.
