MySQL reporting question
moin moin, t1: t1id, varchar1, stuff t2: t2id, timestamp, varchar1, varchar2, status I need to match the most recently entered status from t2 with stuff from t1 in MySQL. t2 is grouped by varchar2. t1 will have millions of rows. t2 has millions of rows and will grow at 4 or 5 times the rate of t1. t2.varchar1 will often be NULL. Non-NULL values will mostly match up with t1.varchar1. t1.varchar1 can not be NULL. varchar2 is a clustering of information about varchar1, but usually only one entry in the cluster will have a value for varchar1. t1.stuff, t2.status == $some_val where max(t2.timestamp) and t1.varchar1 == t2.varchar1 and t2.varchar2 == t2.varchar2 This is for reporting and will run on a slave. Any suggestions on how to efficiently build out the report? Unlike my last DB job, I can create indexes, views, etc. I can also add columns to either table. ciao, der.hans -- # http://www.LuftHans.com/Classeshttp://www.TwoGeekTechs.com/ # Director of Engineering, FonWallet Transaction Solutions, Inc. # If you're not learning, you're not living. - der.hans --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss

Without any other details it seems simple, just create indexes on any join or where column, setup a slave box for data warehousing purposes, run the simple SQL On Mon, Jun 21, 2010 at 11:09 PM, der.hans pl...@lufthans.com wrote: moin moin, t1: t1id, varchar1, stuff t2: t2id, timestamp, varchar1, varchar2, status I need to match the most recently entered status from t2 with stuff from t1 in MySQL. t2 is grouped by varchar2. t1 will have millions of rows. t2 has millions of rows and will grow at 4 or 5 times the rate of t1. t2.varchar1 will often be NULL.

Breaking in to a Harddrive
Greetings All, So my dad bought a Hitachi Travelstar 5K100 and apparently the drive is password locked at a hardware level and requires some sort of voodoo to report back anything other than vendor data. Anyway I guess there is a byte code you send to the drive and then a password then you live happily ever after. Needless to say we don't have the password. I am sure there is data on the drive but none that we own so don't care if all data is lost. Looking for suggestions on breaking in or clearing the drive. Again total data loss is ok. Tried DD in case it was in the partition table and no dice.. -- James Finstrom --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
Re: OT: HowTo Gpartd Windows Mirrored Drives to Expand Usable Space?
ntfs software mirror should pretty much be broken once you pull it out of its host OS/environment. unless they did 2 partitions on one drive and then mirrored them. but in any of those cases the data should be 100% accessible mirror or no.

get the Hitachi drive diagnostics and see if you can write 0's to the drive or contact Hitachi support or contact the seller of the drive thats about all i can think of, because firmware level passwords are pretty hard to circumvent.

Re: MySQL reporting question
If your going to drop acid drop mysql and use Casandra. I hate Casandra because it makes no attempt at being acid complaint but it is the best of your high performance eventually/mostly consistent databases. Mind you I think anyone who thinks not using an ACID complaint database is a good idea did one to many hits of acid and is now locked in a permenait halucination / delision - OR - just does not give a $#*! about thier data. But your also talking to an accountant who would have a kaniption is his $1.5Millon books were off by a nickle and other may not care quite so much about their business. That being said with MySQL you can set up replication very easily and just run your reporting off of the replication box. Thus you can devoting all of your resources to a single query without worry. In addition if you are using an INnoDB engine vs a MyIsam engine your joins are far less expensive. In addition using inner joins vs subquerys is much faster. And if you have many tables you can increase performance by creating temp tables and views but again, you need to understand your dealing with cached data so design as appropriate.

Re: New Linux server at home
normally, its just file (smb) and printer sharing. Those tend to be the biggies and a home user with more than one machine in the house might employ. the more advanced geeks among that group would use something more esoteric (like opendirectory or some other single sign on authentication and syncing package). Us mac users (of which I am one) prefer afp over smb but both are usable.

Re: OT: HowTo Gpartd Windows Mirrored Drives to Expand Usable Space?
Just go to windows control panel - administrative tools computer management -disk management and disble the mirror and your second drive will be clean for whatever you like to do---no data lost on the primary drive o whatever version of windows this machine have- your place to work is disk management command line tool id call Diskpart. now be sure that you have a mirror because when you do that it is only on drive C, or one drive with 2 partition , then will be C and D, and if you have that mirror with a second drive, then you have C and D I understand that you're aware of that, but again, are you sure that has two drives, with gparted, it have a live cd that is able to work with drive mirror and change that, but it is better to do it within windows app. unless that whatever that computer have it is not important, you can try it, but is faster and simpler from disk management, now i got a question which laptop brand provide the ability of use 2 drives, unless that you use docking stations I never see one, well good luck Walter Tocalini On Tue, Jun 22, 2010 at 11:05 AM, Stephen cryptwo...@gmail.com wrote: Desktop replacements aren't known for battery life.. unless you count the shortest possible...

Re: Breaking in to a Harddrive
If the hardware manufacturer implemented the ATA spec correctly, the password cannot be bypassed by any normal means. That is, after all, what the password is supposed to do. With special knowledge of the specific hard drive model, not just the manufacturer, the model and even the specific firmware, one can find where the password is stored and erase or nullify it. Oh, and you might need special equipment to get to that password on the platters. To put it another way, throw this hard drive away and go buy a new one. It'll be less costly of your time.
