internal usually refers to index maintenance ...
In my recent action, I did something like to get a better picture ...

SELECT username, seg_owner, seg_name, seg_type
  ,CASE WHEN stmt LIKE 'UPDATE %' THEN SUBSTR(stmt, 1, INSTR(stmt,'"',1,4)) 
WHEN stmt LIKE 'INSERT %' THEN SUBSTR(stmt, 1, INSTR(stmt,'"',1,4)) END  
stmt_type 
  ,CASE WHEN stmt LIKE 'UPDATE %' THEN SUBSTR(stmt, INSTR(stmt,'"',1,4)+1) 
WHEN stmt LIKE 'INSERT %' THEN SUBSTR(stmt, INSTR(stmt,'"',1,4)+1) END 
stmt_detail 
FROM ( 
SELECT UPPER(sql_redo) stmt FROM sys.tom_logmnr 
WHERE (sql_redo IS NOT NULL 
   AND LOWER(sql_redo) NOT LIKE 'comm%' 
   AND LOWER(sql_redo) NOT LIKE 'set%' 
   AND LOWER(sql_redo) NOT LIKE 'rollba%' 
   AND sql_redo NOT LIKE '%PERFSTAT%' 
   AND sql_redo NOT LIKE 'Unsupported%'))
/

where tom_logmnr is the table I built using CTAS from v$lgmnr_contents

Idea for testing: looking for redo associated with select
statement(s) that are cleaning out row level locks in
block(s) from previously committed DML transaction(s).
Have Fun :)

Hi Arup and Joe

When I wrote the SANS Oracle security step-by-step book I wrote in there
the list of restrictions for log miner including that is didn't support
selects and during the review process of my book someone in Oracle who
was reviewing it informed me that selects would be in the redo in one of
the 9i releases, so i changed the book to say fixed in 9i.
To be honest I now agree with you, it doesn't make sense for selects to
be in the redo, although i suppose they could include them if they
wanted to.
At least for 9iR1 I am sure they are not included as I did some tests 2
or 3 weeks ago when i was writing a paper "detecting SQL injection on
Oracle" for securityfocus.com and selects were definitely not recorded
by logminer. I did not also dump the archive log to trace to see if
there was no select in it but at least LogMiner does not recognise
selects. I copied the list i posted from a file yesterday without
thinking i was perpetuating this issue even though i saw myself a few
weeks ago it wasn't true.
kind regards

Hi Pete,

I am a little prerplexed by "selects are not recorded in redo prior to 9i

AFAIK selects are nevere recorded in the redo, and therefore archived
 

logs -
 

so they are never unearthed by LogMiner, even in 9i Release2. Isn't that
true?

Arup,  I kinda shook my head on that one also.  So Pete, you got some 
inside-scoop that i've missed, i admit i've not much touched logminer in 
9ir2(did alot of it and presentations back in 8i days), but have been

Hi Robin,

LogMiner is a good tool for forensics, after the fact type work i.e to
find out when your junior dba dropped that table. It shouldn't be used
to do run of the mill daily work. It has a few deficiencies that are
hard to work around:
o - log miner user PGA memory so cannot be used in MTS environment
o - it doesn't fully support objects
o - doesn't support chained or migrated rows (fixed in 9i, not sure
   which release.)
o - doesn't support analysis of clustered tables or indexes or IOT's
o - selects are not recorded in redo prior to 9i (again not sure which
   release).
creating a trigger and a history table is far far more sensible and
robust.
hth

kind regards

Re: trigger and LogMiner

2003-07-09 Thread Arup Nanda
Hi Pete,

I am a little prerplexed by "selects are not recorded in redo prior to 9i ".
AFAIK selects are nevere recorded in the redo, and therefore archived logs -
so they are never unearthed by LogMiner, even in 9i Release2. Isn't that
true?

Thanks.

Re: trigger and LogMiner

2003-07-09 Thread Pete Finnigan
Hi Robin,

LogMiner is a good tool for forensics, after the fact type work i.e to
find out when your junior dba dropped that table. It shouldn't be used
to do run of the mill daily work. It has a few deficiencies that are
hard to work around:

o - log miner user PGA memory so cannot be used in MTS environment
o - it doesn't fully support objects
o - doesn't support chained or migrated rows (fixed in 9i, not sure 
which release.)
o - doesn't support analysis of clustered tables or indexes or IOT's 
o - selects are not recorded in redo prior to 9i (again not sure which 
release).

creating a trigger and a history table is far far more sensible and
robust.

hth

kind regards

Pete

RE: LogMiner errors

2002-07-03 Thread Nguyen, David M

I got the errors fixed.  The reason the errors were generated because it
could not find time interval between July 1 and July 2.  I was able read
redo log with LogMiner but now I come with another question why report
display output in HEX data and why it only shows username is "SYS" only?  I
want to look at some transactions which were made by "DBIMPL" user that is
not there.

==

**Redo log report:

USERNAME   LOG_ID TIMESTAMPSQL_REDO
-- --  -
   CAAACtAAAT';

SYS 24036 02-JUL-02insert into UNKNOWN.Objn:
   12(Col[1],Col[2],Col[3])
   values (HEXTORAW('c108'),
   HEXTORAW('c23b20'),HEXTOR
   AW('c106'));

SYS 24036 02-JUL-02delete from UNKNOWN.Objn:
   13 where Col[1] = HEXTORA
   W('c20c42') and Col[2] =

===

In addition, my database is running in NOARCHIVE mode does it mean I can not
go back to check what happened yesterday or couple days ago?

Is there a really good book about LogMiner that I can purchase or a website?

Thanks,
David

I believe also that you can't actually run LogMiner against an 8.0
database but have to generate the dictionary file (which you can do)
and then run the mining procedure with the dictionary file against an
8.1.x database

Re: LogMiner errors

2002-07-03 Thread Tim Gorman

Rachel is right on target.  You can create the package DBMS_LOGMNR_D in the
v8.0.x database to generate the dictionary file (after stealing the source
files from a v8.1.x database), but running DBMS_LOGMNR must be done in a
v8.1.x database.

If nothing else, create an extremely tiny v8.1.x database and instance just
for running LogMiner...

RE: LogMiner errors

2002-07-03 Thread Rachel Carmichael

I believe also that you can't actually run LogMiner against an 8.0
database but have to generate the dictionary file (which you can do)
and then run the mining procedure with the dictionary file against an
8.1.x database

RE: LogMiner errors

2002-07-03 Thread John . Hallas

David,

I recall that there is a limit (42 characters?) on the name of the
dictionary file.
2 ways round it. Create the file in the top level ie /export/dict.ora or
create a symbolic link with a shorter name.
I have a page on my web site which mentions this problem
(www.hcresources.co.uk).
Unfortunately I do not (yet) have internet access at my new site and cannot
recall what exactly is on the page (I do recall it is not yet finished)

LogMiner - Null Username

2002-05-14 Thread Walter K

Does anyone know why USERNAME in V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS is 
not always populated? I have encountered numerous 
instances where a select like 'Select username, 
sql_redo from v$logmnr_contents' shows a username for 
some operations and no username for others. 

I have also noticed that DELETE operations always have 
a null Username.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Re: Logminer - again

2002-03-19 Thread Lyubomir Petrov

Most of the transactions in the redo log are written
in this way:

SQL_REDO

set transaction read write;
insert/update/delete something
commit;

'set transaction read write' is the default setting
for a transaction and that's why it's there, I quess.
Commit is self explaining.

The statements with username = 'SYS' are either you
doing something as SYS or recursive SQL.

Re: Logminer

2002-03-18 Thread Lyubomir Petrov

Hi John,

You did not mention the Oracle version, but I hope
this will help. 

In $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/dbmslmd.sql (the script
that builds DBMS_LOGMNR_D package) there is a line:

TYPE col_desc_array IS VARRAY(513) OF col_description;

Replace it with something like:

TYPE col_desc_array IS VARRAY(1000) OF
col_description;

and then rebuild the package.

LogMiner and ORA-03113

2002-01-18 Thread Walter K

I'm trying to analyze some archive logs via LogMiner
and I keep getting the error ORA-03113 (end of file on
communications channel) when I query the
V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS view. I did a "new" and "start"
prior to running the query. This process that I am
going through works on some log files but not on
others. The log files aren't corrupted because I can
restore/recover the database and apply the logs
successfully for a roll-forward. I'm just running a
'select count(*)' query at this point.

Has anyone else encountered this and come up with a
solution?

I've checked MetaLink, Google, etc and so far have not
come up with anything that describes what may be the
cause. I'm running 8.1.7.2 (64bit) on Solaris 8.

MANY thanks in advance.

RE: Logminer in different SID

2001-12-17 Thread DENNIS WILLIAMS

Aldi - My advice is to use Logminer on your production database. I am
assuming that your DEV database is a copy or clone of your production
database. However, Logminer won't have the correct file names, for example.
You will have to go back to production, find the file you want, find the
file_id, convert that file_id to hex, then enter that into Logminer. Even if
your DEV is a clone of production. The data values will also be in hex. It
can be done, but it is probably much more useful to simply build the
Logminer dictionary on production.

Logminer Question

2001-12-14 Thread Carle, William T (Bill), NLCIO

Hi,

I have a process that inserts several rows into a table. Each row
contains a timestamp field that shows the time it was inserted. When I
interrogate Logminer looking for these rows, not all of them are shown. It
stops after a certain point. A commit was done and I know I have the right
redo log, but I don't see the rows from Logminer. Why would that be?

Re: Audit vs Logminer

2001-12-04 Thread Peter Teoh

I have used LogMiner once, and I was quite surprised at the Redo Log
details.   For example, all SQL that does not modify the database will not
be captured into the Redo Log file.  (eg, SELECT statement). But
Auditing definitely can capture all these.   Similarly if you issue the same
update statement multiple nos of times, only one is updated into the Redo
Log file.   Auditing will record multiple nos of times as entered.

Audit vs Logminer

2001-11-28 Thread O'Neill, Sean

8i Database, W2K server.  Apps team looking for audit trail functionality.
I've outlined the pros and cons of Oracle Audit vs using Logminer to extract
audit info from archived redo logs as below:

- Archiving of Redo Logs will be carried out in any case.  
- All required auditing data as far as I can determine would be captured in
redo logs.  
- Using Logminer to investigate them looks like it would be more difficult
than using Oracles Auditing features.
- Introducing Oracle Auditing has limited functionality and has a
performance overhead.  
- Oracle auditing would require programming of triggers to capture before
and after values which in turn has another potential performance hit.
- Oracle audit data needs to be monitored and requires additional management
time.

I've not used Oracle Auditing or Logminer so the above is based upon some
reading I've done.  If I've missed any important points please give me
feedback on same.  Also anyone any opinions, or better still experience, as
to which is better from performance POV.

Re: Logminer Question

2001-11-19 Thread Joe Testa

Ed, in the 8i world, there is more than you want to know amount of
redo/undo that goes on where the username is not available.  The format
of the redo logs(or oracle intentionally left out) leaves a bit to be
desired in the version of lognminer for 8i.


9i its a whole lot better.

some of the reasons are data dictionary allocation and deallocation of
extents as well as any rows that are migrated and /or chained will not
give you much to look at it the logs.

{9i New Feature: Logminer } This one is long also

2001-10-30 Thread JOE TESTA



IMPORTANT NOTE:
 
This will only cover the NEW features of logminer, this is NOT an 
exhaustive study on how logminer works, SO this means you 
need to already know how logminer works as the beginning aspects are not 
covered here. NOTE: the majority of this info comes from metalink doc id:  
148616.1, dated Oct 11, 2001
 
  
 
 If you want the total ins/outs of logminer, come and see me at 
IOUG-A, if all goes well, i'll be doing a 2 hr mini-lesson on the logminer, 
beginning (just what is a redo log) thru advanced(can i track DDL changes and 
how does it affect me for looking at old data before the table had a column 
added), and we'll contrast/compare the command line versus the GUI logminer 
viewer that comes with OEM. 
 
  
 
 and now back to the show: 
 
 Logminer has been enhanced quite a bit in 9i. 
 
Here are the features that will be discussed in this segment: 
 
New Dictionary options  Redo log files as dictionary  
Online data dictionaryDDL TrackingSkipping past redo log 
corruptionSkip uncommited transactionsChained/Migrated rowsClustered 
TablesDirect Path Insert LoggingSupplemental LoggingMine_value 
functionColumn_present functionGUI
 
- New 
Dictionary options:  Back in the 8i days, there was only flat file 
dictionary option.  This has been expanded to 
 
include: 
 
Redo log files as dictionary:  This is where the current dictionary is 
written to the redo logs, there are 
restrictions:    DBMS_LOGMNR_D.BUILD 
must be run on an Oracle9i 
database    The database must be in 
archivelog mode    The COMPATIBLE 
parameter value must be set to 
9.0.X    The dictionary must belong 
to the same database as the redo logs to be 
analyzed    No DDL is allowed during 
the dictionary extraction    SQL> 
execute DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR(options => -> 
dbms_logmnr.dict_from_redo_logs); 
 
Online data dictionary: This means you will be using the current data 
dictionary as it exists right now in the database.
 
To instruct LogMiner to use the database data dictionary, simply provide 
this option to the DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR 
 
procedure after adding the logs to be analyzed. No dictionary build is 
done.SQL> execute DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR(options => 
-dbms_logmnr.dict_from_online_catalog); -DDL 
Tracking:  
 
A. LogMiner automatically records the SQL statement 
used for a DDL operation as such, so that operations like a DROP/ALTER/CREATE 
table can be easily tracked. In Oracle8i, only the internal operations to the 
data dictionary are recorded and it is difficult to track these operations (A 
DROP table results in several DML statements against the data 
dictionary). B. By specifying the 
DBMS_LOGMNR.DDL_DICT_TRACKING option when starting LogMiner, the LogMiner 
internal dictionary is updated if a DDL event is found in the redo log files. 
This allows the SQL_REDO in V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS to accurately display information 
for objects that are modified by user DML statements after LogMiner dictionary 
is built.     This option is not valid with the 
DICT_FROM_ONLINE_CATALOG 
option.    
1.  Build the 
dictionary:   
SQL> execute DBMS_LOGMNR_D.BUILD ('dictionary.ora', 
'/database/9i/logminer');    
2.  Alter the table to add a column 
:   
SQL> alter table test add(c4 
number);    
3.  Add the log which contains the ALTER 
statement:   
SQL> execute DBMS_LOGMNR.ADD_LOGFILE(logfilename => 
'/database/9i/arch/1_683.dbf', options => 
dbms_logmnr.new);    
4. Start the log analysis:   => 
Without the DDL_DICT_TRACKING 
option:      SQL> 
execute DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR(dictfilename => 
'/database/9i/logminer/dictionary.ora');
  
V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS.SQL_REDO 
contains:  insert into 
"SCOTT"."TEST"("COL 1","COL 2","COL 3","COL 4") values(HEXTORAW('c102'), 
HEXTORAW('c103'), HEXTORAW('c104'), 
HEXTORAW('c105'));  => With the 
DDL_DICT_TRACKING 
option: SQL> execute 
DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR(dictfilename => 
'/database/9i/logminer/dictionary.ora', options 
=>dbms_logmnr.ddl_dict_tracking); 
V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS.SQL_REDO 
contains: insert into 
"SCOTT"."TEST"("C1","C2","C3","C4") values 
('1','2','3','4');    Note: You must be sure that you 
have included the log which contains the DDL statement in the logs to be 
analyzed with 
 
DBMS_LOGMNR.ADD_LOGFILE. -

Either way...  I tried it with 9.0.0.0.0 beta 3 and I got the normal DML to work just fine.  However I could not get the DDL to work.. I set the parameters just like the doc says, but all my DDL queries just seamed to go out to lunch on me...  

My log files were very small for the testing...  5 MB files, and I only did 3 DDL statements...

Joe,

I didn't get to see the advanced logminer presentation at IOUG-A.
- is that one 201?
- any chance of seeing it at your user group meeting in July?
- does it exist in print anywhere?

Also Logminer doesn't work with IOT and tables suffering from chaining and
migrated rows. We should wait for 8.2 or 9i as they called.

Pretty much my take on it.

LogMiner is a  good specialized tool, but probably
not appropriate for serious auditing.

Thanks

Nope, not auditing as in the pure essence of auditing like oracle
auditing.

But I've done the concept of pin pointing what user dropped a table
based on the DML of the dictionary tables, tab$, col$, etc.

So thats an extreme subset at best.  Besides with oracle auditing you
can audit select statements(if i remember correctly), where as logminer
only does DML against tables and with some serious investigative work
DDL against tables(which in reality is only DML against the data
dictionary).

LogMiner and Auditing

2001-02-14 Thread jkstill


FYI: Resent with a different subject
-


I've seen a few posts on the list lately suggesting the use
of LogMiner as an auditing tool.

I have serious doubts about it's use in this capacity. Imagine
the following scenario.

Duhveloper:  'We just discovered that someone dropped a critical
 table in our system.  We think some unauthorized
 person has access to one of our production accounts!
 We need to find out who this was!'

( duhvelopers always speak with exclamation points )

DBA:  'Is this the same database that was installed by the
   vendor with default passwords?  The same database that
   I'm not allowed to change the default passwords on?'

Duhveloper: 'Uh, yeah, right.'
( Well, maybe not always )

DBA:  'OK, I may not be able to tell you who did it, but I
   can pinpoint when it happened with LogMiner.'

Duhveloper: 'Great!  How soon we get an answer!'

DBA:  'That depends on how closely you can narrow down the
   window I have to look in.  Approximately when did
   happen?'

Duhveloper:  'Well, we didn't find out til this morning.  The
  last time anyone can recall looking at the table
  was 10 days ago.'

DBA:  'This system generates a 500m log file 3 times an hour,
   24x7.  That means that a worst case scenario is I
   process 720 Archive log files, many of which are on
   tape, so I must bring those back 20 files at a time, as
   the largest disk space I can spare is 10 gig.  Working
   fulltime I may be able to give you that answer in 30 days.'

Duhveloper:  'Oh.  Well maybe we don't need it that bad. I know
  what we can do!  Why don't you change the default
  system passwords on that database.  I don't know
  why you didn't do it as soon as the vendor left!'

( Duhveloper skulks away when DBA's face turns a lovely shade
  of crimson and appears to be on the verge of burying Pompeii
  in an ash flow. )


Seriously, has anyone successfully used LogMiner for auditing
in a production database.

Joe, your input here would be appreciated.

Jared
