Don-   Look for port conflicts between the Apache installed with 9iAS and the one with 9.2.  If you're using web cache on iAS check the port that is using also. Are you using iAS Release 2 (9.0.2)?  If so, and both the infrastructure and mid-tier are on the same server, they will each have

I've been told the same thing, but the reasoning was that they couldn't guarantee what was put out for download was actually the correct build. Not sure that's very reassuring, either. Jim -Original Message- Sent: Thursday, November 14, 2002 12:34 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORA

No, buffer is ignored for DIRECT=Y.  But RECORDLENGTH should be set to DB_BLOCK_SIZE, or a multiple of it.  I've had dramatic gains in performance doing this.   Also, pre-8i you couldn't do direct-mode export of LONG fields.  As of sometime in 8i you can (I know it works in 8.1.7).   Jim >>>

Well, that IS true (actually I think its NOLOGGING for index creation).  But if you have massive amounts of INSERTS or DELETES, dropping the index first and then re-creating can help.   If the number of deletes is truly large, and you've got spare disk space, and the table can be off-line fo

This could get ugly.  I'm thinking the decode/outer join method won't work because there's no table you can reliably use as a base for the outer join.  How about:   select emp_id, dept from dept_one union (select emp_id, dept from dept_two minus select emp_id, dept from dept_one) union (selec

Seemed fine when I tried it (and thanks for the idea!).  The trick with the indexes is that the ones on the partitioned table have to be local, which was in the scripts provided, and the 'exchange partition' had to say 'including indexes', which was not.  Adding 'including indexes' made this
