DBAs and database into storages

Hi all,
About Storage and DBAs. What is your opinions about
the DBAs Oracle or other SGBDs know about Storage? What courses we must
to take about storage?
I need to know Storage Architecture, and databases, like Oracle?
thank you very much!

What vendor does your organization use?
Most of the storage vendors have pretty heavily customized tools/ utilities/ etc. for administering a SAN. Learning about EMC, therefore, would be useful if your organization uses EMC but not particularly useful if your organization uses some other storage vendor.

How to get the source file name and transform into database

Hi,
We need to load data from source file abc.csv into oracle table. during loading, we need to keep the file name abc.csv and write into the database table as one field. Is there anyone who did the similar task? and how to make it? Pls help!

Hi,
If you can write the filename to a text file, you may do the following:
(1) create a text-file containing the name of your source-file.
(2) create an external table using that text-file as input.
Now, you can SELECT the filename from the external table.
Of course, you need a way to : create the flat file, handle the flat file, etc.

Inserting or embed and image into cfmail output from a database-stored path to an actual image.

I am trying to insert or embed and image into cfmail from a database-stored path to an actual image. The actual JPEG image is stored in a folder called "images_personnel". The path to the image under the column titled photopath is stored in my database table as "/file/images_personnel/28.jpg". Displaying the image on the screen renders without a problem, embedding the same image as part of a cfloop query does not insert/embed the image into an email. All of the other output of the same cfloop displays and emails just fine. However none of the photos of each personelle show up. What an I doing wrong?
My code is below:
<cfquery name="Staffreport" datasource="master">
Select staffreport.*, name.personnelid, name.email, name.last, name.noiid, stafflt, CONCAT(name.fname,' ',name.middle,' (',name.last,')') AS teammember, CONCAT(name.fname,' ',name.middle) AS teammember2, concat(name.photopath,'',name.photo)as hisphoto, stafflt.*, trim(concat(ltfname,' ',ltmiddle)) as LT from Staffreport, name, stafflt
where 0=0
and stalt = '#Session.user_id#'
and ltid = '#session.user_id#'
and staweekbegin = <cfqueryparam value="#form.staweekbegin#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_date" />
AND staweekend = <cfqueryparam value="#form.staweekend#" cfsqltype="cf_sql_date" />
AND stapersonnelid = personnelID

AND CITY = 'richmond'
AND STATUS <> 'd'
AND STATUS <> 'T'
AND type = 'personnel'
Group by personnelid
Order by teammember
</cfquery>
<cfmail>...
<cfloop query="staffreport"><br />
<table width="90%" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="4" align="left">
<tr>
    <td colspan="2" align="center" valign="top" nowrap="nowrap" bgcolor="cccccc"><strong><font color="black"><cfif #staffreport.last# eq ".">#Ucase(Staffreport.teammember2)# <cfelse>#Ucase(Staffreport.teammember)#</cfif> - ID: <cfoutput>#Staffreport.noiid#</cfoutput></font></strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td align="left" valign="top" nowrap="nowrap" bgcolor="#000000">Name:</td>
    <td>#Staffreport.teammember#</td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td bgcolor="E6E1FD">Photo:</td>
    <td bgcolor="EBEBEB">
<img src="#staffreport.hisphoto#" alt="Photo" width="98" height="98">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td bgcolor="E6E1FD">Email:</td>
    <td bgcolor="EBEBEB">#staffreport.email#</td>
</tr>
</table>
</cfloop>
</cfmail>

You'll need to provide a full URL link to the image ("http://mywebserver/file/images_personnel/28.jpg"), not just a relative path. Remember, the email client that is used to view the email content knows nothing of the internals of your web server - it can only follow a complete URL to get images and other resources.

Convert flat file to XML document and store into Oracle database

First:
I have a flatfile and created external table to read that file in Oracle
Now I want to create an XML document for each row and insert into Oracle database, I think that XMLtype.
Could you please provide me some information/steps.
Second:
Is there performance issues, because everyday I need to check that XML document stored in the database against the in coming file.
Thank You.

Oracle 11g R2 Sun Solaris
Flat file is | (pipe delimited), so I did create an EXTERNAL Table
row1     a|1|2|3|4
row2     b|2|3|4|5
row3     c|6|7|8|9
I want to store each record as XML document. So it will be easy to compare with next day's load and make insert or update.
The reason is:
     First day the file comes with 5 columns
     after some days, the file may carry on some additional columns more than 5
     In this case I do not want to alter table to capture those values, if I use XML than I can capture any number of columns, CORRECT!. Please make me correct If I am wrong.
     This is the only reason to try to use the XMLType (XML Document)
     On Everyday load we will be matching these XML documents and update it if there is any column's value changes
daily average load will be 10 millions and initial setup will be 60-80 millions
     Do I have anyother option to capture the new values without altering the table.
Please advise!.

Read data from Excel and write into oracle database

Hi
I want to know how can i read data from excel and write into oracle database using java.Kindly help me out to find a solution.
Thanks and Regards
Neeta

Hai,
I am suggesting the solution.
I will try out and let u know soon.
Make a coma separated file from your excel file.
Assuming that your requirement allows to make a csv file.
This file may be passed as an file object to be read by java.Using JDBC you must be able to populate the data base.You can also use String Tokenizer if needed.
You do not want to go via sql Loader?
For reading the excel file itself do you want java?

XML document convert into String and Insert into Database

Hello all,
In the FIle to File Scenario I want to send the data to the Reciever System in xml Document and convert into String and insert into Database.
Please can you tell me exact way how to send it.
Thanks & Regards,
Raj

HI,
As per my understanding your scenario is File to file where you will get output fiel in XML format.
Now that XMl payload need to be passed as single string in the database via XI.
You cauld do this but you need to imply some manipulations such as
With the help of standard API you need to concatenate the XML tags and create the structre along with the data.
For e.g. in your outpuf file the XML structre contain data as
<field1>ABCD</field1>
Then in mapping
The source field will be mappeda s concat(<field1>) + value of Source field "ABCD" + concat(</field1>) to the target field.
This is the way that you could achive the requirments else there is no direct way avaialble for it.
thanks

Get the data from excel and insert into the database

I want to read the data from excel file, get the data from excel and insert into the database.

You can use the Apache POI HSSF API to read data from Excel files and you can use the Sun JDBC API to insert data in database.
This has nothing to do with JSP/JSTL.

Pool data from text file and insert into database

Can anyone tell me how to pool data from a text file and insert into database?
let's say my text file is in this format
123456 Peter 22
234567 Nicholas 24
345678 Jane 20
Then I need to insert the all the value for this three column into a table which has the three column name ID, Name, Age
Anyone knows? I need to do this urgently...Thank in advanced

1. Use BufferedReader and read the file line by line.
2. Loop thru the file and do the following steps with in this loop.
3. Use StringTokenizer to seperate each line into three values (columns).
4. Now create a insert statement with these values and add the statement to the batch (using addBatch() method of PreparedStatement or Statement).
5. Finally (after exiting the loop), execute these batch of statements (using ps.executeBatch()).

Help export from database P1 Partition and Import into databaseT1 Partiton

Hi,
I need to export one of the table partition(Range Partition) data from production database P1, and Import into another table partition of database T1.
Means export from one partiton to another partition, from database is P1, To database is T1.
exp command not worked in sqlplus prompt at SQL>.
Regards,
Venkat.

Hello,
I don't know exactly your Oracle release, but since Oracle 10.1 you can use either the Original export/import utility (exp/imp) or the DATAPUMP (expdp/impdp) which is recommended.
As previously posted, export/import is not launched from SQL prompt but straightly from a DOS session (for Windows) or a Unix session (on Unix/Linux).
These links will give you example about partition-level export and import, using the Original export/import utility:

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16536/original_import.htm#SUTIL1758
You have the same feature in DATAPUMP with the TABLES parameter:

Want to upgrade 8.1.5 database into 10.2.0.2 and implement RAC.

Hi,
I have two different databases running on 8.1.5.0 and 8.1.7.4 and the size of databases are 110GB and 130GB.
Now we want to upgrade this database into 10.2.0.2 and implement RAC.
Could any one suggest the best way/document to upgrade database into 10g.
Existing Platform is Sun Solaris 5.8(32 bits)
New Platform is AIX 5.2(64 bits).
Thanks

Since the database is being migrated from Solaris to AIX, you cannot physically copy the database to the new server. You can choose to use Oracle's export and import utilities. This depends on much downtime you can afford. You can also create a new database on the AIX server and use CTAS (create table as select) to bring over your tables. This requires some additional post-migration work on your part to re-create the indexes, constraints, default values, etc. Export/import will do most of this for you.
If you have the option to upgrade to Oracle 10gR2, another possibility is to upgrade your database on the Solaris server and use transportable tablespaces to create a new 10g database on the AIX server. Transportable tablespaces in 10gR2 allow you to migrate across operating systems. Be sure to review Oracle's certification matrix to ensure that you are installing Oracle database software on a certified platform.

Clone Production Database and Convert into Read Write Mode

Hi,
Please help me for below question...
How to Create Test Database from Production Database without transporting backup of Production Database to Test Database and the Test Database should be in different directory structure and converting into read write mode?
Please find me a solution as early as possible...
Thanks & Regards
Akhil

if you don't need to move backup from prod to dev you need to create rman catalog and have access on it from dev server , after that you will be able to duplicate your prod to dev without moving backup and database will be in Read write by default .

Attach User define tables and view table need add to database into my add-o

Hi there,
I want to deploy an addon, there are User define tables and view table need add to database.
I need some advice on some issues..
1. Can I attach User define tables and view table need add to database into my addon.
2. I wonder which chance is properly to add them, if add these user define objects in time of install and I can't get the enough information that connect to SQL server
Thanks for any help.

Hi Weerachai,
Here's an example of how to create a user-defined table in code. My suggestion would be to check if it exists when your add-on starts up and then if not, create the tables, fields and objects.
'User Table
    Private Sub CreateTable(ByVal sTable As String, ByVal sDescription As String, ByVal oObjectType As SAPbobsCOM.BoUTBTableType)
        Dim oUserTablesMD As SAPbobsCOM.UserTablesMD
        Dim iResult As Long
        Dim sMsg As String
        oUserTablesMD = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserTables)
        If Not oUserTablesMD.GetByKey(sTable) Then
            oUserTablesMD.TableName = sTable
            oUserTablesMD.TableDescription = sDescription
            oUserTablesMD.TableType = oObjectType
            iResult = oUserTablesMD.Add()
            If iResult <> 0 Then
                oCompany.GetLastError(iResult, sMsg)
                MessageBox.Show("Error Creating Table: " & sTable & " Error: " & sMsg)
            End If
        End If
        System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oUserTablesMD)
    End Sub
'User Field
    Private Sub CreateField(ByVal sTable As String, ByVal sName As String, ByVal sDescription As String, _
                            ByVal iSize As Integer, ByVal aFieldType As SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes, _
                            ByVal aSubType As SAPbobsCOM.BoFldSubTypes, ByVal sLink As String, _
                            ByVal bMandatory As SAPbobsCOM.BoYesNoEnum)
        Dim oUserFieldsMD As SAPbobsCOM.UserFieldsMD
        Dim oTable As SAPbobsCOM.UserTable
        Dim iResult As Long
        Dim sMsg As String
        Dim i As Integer
        Dim x As Integer
        Dim bFound As Boolean = False
        Dim oField As SAPbobsCOM.Field
        oTable = oCompany.UserTables.Item(sTable)
        For i = 0 To oTable.UserFields.Fields.Count - 1
            oField = oTable.UserFields.Fields.Item(i)
            'MessageBox.Show(oField.Name)
            If oField.Name = "U_" & sName Then
                bFound = True
            End If
        Next
        System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oTable)
        If Not bFound Then
            oUserFieldsMD = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields)
            oUserFieldsMD.TableName = "@" & sTable
            oUserFieldsMD.Name = sName
            oUserFieldsMD.Description = sDescription
            oUserFieldsMD.Type = aFieldType
            If aFieldType = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha Or aFieldType = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Numeric Then
                oUserFieldsMD.EditSize = iSize
            Else
                oUserFieldsMD.SubType = aSubType
                oUserFieldsMD.Mandatory = bMandatory
            End If
            oUserFieldsMD.LinkedTable = sLink
            iResult = oUserFieldsMD.Add()
            If iResult <> 0 Then
                oCompany.GetLastError(iResult, sMsg)
                MessageBox.Show("Error Creating Field: " & sTable & "." & sName & " Error: " & sMsg)
            End If
            System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oUserFieldsMD)
        End If
    End Sub
If you want to create a View I think you would have to use the RecordSet object. This will ensure that you don't have to log in to the database again
Hope it helps,

Dear Friends,
I installed oracle 9ias. and then i hosted my form,report into that server . All was working properly.

at the instalation of oracle 9i database one error comes
and shows that Agent configuration Assistant Installation
fail.
but After installation of database it work properly.
there is no problem.
but when I try to run from through web(by using oracle 9ias)
it gives Internal error(500).
i check and find that my appache server for 9ias is working properly and in services of windows 2000 no error comes.
HOW CAN I INSTALL BOTH (ORACLE 9IAS AND ORACLE DATABASE )INTO SAME MACHINE.

Is the only way to import large amount of data and database objects into a primary database is to shutdown the standby, turn off archive log mode, do the import, then rebuild the standby?

I have a primary database that need to import large amount of data and database objects. 1.) Do I shutdown the standby? 2.) Turn off archive log mode? 3.) Perform the import? 4.) Rebuild the standby? or is there a better way or best practice?

Instead of rebuilding the (whole) standby, you take an incremental (from SCN) backup from the Primary and restore it on the Standby. That way, if, for example
a. Only two out of 12 tablespaces are affected by the import, the incremental backup would effectively be only the blocks changed in those two tablespaces (and some other changes in system and undo) {provided that there are no other changes in the other ten tablespaces}
b. if the size of the import is only 15% of the database, the incremental backup to restore to the standby is small
