Oracle database normalisation and logical design documnetation

Hi ,
Am a begginer on DB design , can anyone help me find Oracle database normalisation and logical design documnetation for reference.
Thanks,
Swaroop

Database logical design and normalization are typically DBMS (Database Management System) independent. Meaning that you could do a whole LOGICAL design without regards to the platform in which it will be based. There are many, many resources on the internet if you search for them. if you used terms like "logical database design", or "database normalization" on Google or your search engine of choice I imagine you'll come up with many results.
When it comes to the actual physical design of the database (as in tablespaces, datafiles, indexes, etc) I would first consult the "Oracle Concepts Guide", and then something like the "Application Developer's Guide." This documentation is all available at:

Hope this helps!

  • Difference in select for update of - in Oracle Database 10g and 11g

    Hi, I found out that Oracle Database 10g and 11g treat the following PL/SQL block differently (I am using scott schema for convenience):
    DECLARE
      v_ename bonus.ename%TYPE;
    BEGIN
      SELECT b.ename
        INTO v_ename
        FROM bonus b
        JOIN emp e ON b.ename = e.ename
        JOIN dept d ON d.deptno = e.deptno
       WHERE b.ename = 'Scott'
         FOR UPDATE OF b.ename;
    END;
    /While in 10g (10.2) this code ends successfully (well NO_DATA_FOUND exception is raised but that is expected), in 11g (11.2) it raises exception "column ambiguously defined". And that is definitely not expected. It seems like it does not take into account table alias because I found out that when I change the column in FOR UPDATE OF e.empno (also does not work) to e.mgr (which is unique) it starts working. So is this some error in 11g? Any thoughts?

    It seems that my question was answered here - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2736426/difference-in-select-for-update-of-in-oracle-database-10g-and-11g

    The behaviour seems like it really is a bug and can be avoided using non-ANSI syntax. (It makes me wonder why Oracle maintains two query languages while dumb me thinks that this is just a preprocessor matter and query engine could be the same).

  • Running Oracle database 10g and 11g on same 5 RAC nodes

    Hello Gurus,
    Could any body throw light if I can install and sucessfully run Oracle database 10g and 11g on the same Oracle RAC installation setup.My setup is below
    Number of nodes-5
    OS- windows 2003 or RHEL5
    storage- DELL EMC SAN
    Clusterware- oracle version11g
    File system-Automatic storage management(ASM)
    After I successfully setup clusterware,ASM on the nodes,I would want to install 11g database on all 5 nodes .
    Then Install 10g database on only 3 of the nodes using the same clusterware.
    What are your views on the same.
    Also FYI... as per metalink node 220970.1(RAC: Frequently Asked Questions) one can do such a setup.
    what iam looking for is practical experience if anyone has implemented this in production system,if yes any issues faced and how tough it is to support.
    Thanks,
    Imtiyaz

    You could run an 11g database and 10g database on the same cluster as long as you use Clusterware 11g.
    The administration aspect will drastically change according to the platform you run on. As of now, it appears you don't know whether it will be Linux or Windows.
    It would be practical to support the same database release.

  • How to automate the Oracle database start and shutdown process

    How we can automate and oracle database start and stop procees with Linux start/shutdown process.
    I want to automatically start the oracle database at the time linux server and shutdown the database on shutdown linux server.

    Hi,
    I can share my scripts:
    1) /home/oracle/start_oracle.sh
    #Script should be ran as Oracle user
    cd /tmp
    export ORACLE_SID=orcl
    export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/ora9i
    lsnrctl start
    sqlplus -S /nolog <<ENDSQL
    connect / as sysdba
    startup
    exit
    ENDSQL
    emctl start dbconsole
    isqlplusctl start
    NOTE: emctl and isqlplus are optional
    2) /home/oracle/stop_oracle.sh
    #Script should be ran as Oracle user
    cd /tmp
    export ORACLE_SID=orcl
    export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/ora9i
    isqlplusctl stop
    emctl stop dbconsole
    sqlplus -S /nolog <<ENDSQL
    connect / as sysdba
    shutdown immediate
    exit
    ENDSQL
    lsnrctl stop
    NOTE: emctl and isqlplus are optional
    Then what you need:
    1) K91oracle_stop (put it in the desired run level)
    #!/bin/bash
    # description: Stop Oracle before reboots
    su - oracle -c "/home/oracle/stop_oracle.sh" >> /home/oracle/stoporacle.log
    2) S91oracle_start (put it in the desired run level)
    #!/bin/bash
    # description: Start Oracle after reboots
    su - oracle -c "/home/oracle/start_oracle.sh" >> /home/oracle/startoracle.log
    Bye.

  • Oracle Database 10g and Oracle Client 9i together

    Hi, I've been lost some nights in this problem, in my job I will need migrate my Oracle Database 10g for a new computer, on the other hand, there is a software in this computer wrote in Visual Basic and this running only Oracle 9i Client.
    Is it possible configure my new server for run Oracle Database 10g and Oracle 9i Client together?
    Thanks!
    Emerson

    You can certainly use an Oracle 9i client to connect to an Oracle 10g database. Technically, you may have to apply the 9.2.0.4 patchset to the Oracle client to be completely supported, but that may not be strictly necessary.
    You can also have both a 10g database and a 9i client installed on the same machine in different Oracle Homes. You may have some issues on Windows, however, if you are using software that is not multi-home compliant (i.e. the Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle) or if you call Oracle command-line utilities (exp, imp, etc) without explicitly setting the PATH first.

  • Oracle Database Express Edition 10g; Designer, PL/SQL; Download

    Hi,
    I am new to this forum, I hope that I am posting in the right one :)
    I am refreshing my SQL knowledge an installed the "Oracle Database Express Edition 10g Release 2 (10.2)" which works fine. I now would like to learn PL/SQL and Oracle Designer.
    Are these 2 also offered as a free download for personal use? Since the Oracle website is pretty complex I am not sure what I should download.
    Can I run these programs on one WinXP Home machine?
    Thanks for your help!

    Designer is not free like Express Edition. You cannot use it for any commericial purpose without a licence.
    Designer is a big tool. I don't know why it shouldn't run against XE but it is a tough blighter to configure and install. It is also a moribund product, so the answer to this question:
    Is there a newer Designer version available?is likely to be "No" whenever you ask it.

  • Difference between Oracle Database XE and APEX?

    I searched, but couldn't seem to find if this question had already been answered.
    I just picked up beginning oracle application express by wrox.
    I came to oracle and downloaded Oracle Database XE then went to search for apex.
    Installed Oracle Database XE ..signing is as system your options appear to be administration, object browser, sql, and utilities.
    unlocked the HR sample user account and logged in..it has the same options above, but also application builder.
    So, I guess my question is..
    1. why does HR have application builder, but system does not?
    2. do you need to download and install Apex or is apex already preinstalled using Oracle Database XE?
    3. is Apex the same thing as application builder or are they completely different.
    Thank you for you answers
    Thomas

    Oracle 11g XE is the FREE version of the Oracle database product.. APEX is the development product that LIVES in the Oracle database. So if you download the database, you get a copy of APEX to use...
    System is NOT a usual user in the database, and in fact you should NOT be using it unless you need to change some settings in the database..
    Thank you,

    I used always SQL Server as database and it was easy to use after installation.
    With SQL Server configuration management program I could to launch the SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service and the database server start up!!
    With SQL Server management studio I could to launch the client application, then was establishing a connection to the server and all was working fine!
    Now, how to work with oracle database?
    I installed oracle server and client version 11g R2 on windows 8, but how can I start the server database? .. and how can I start the client application for querying?
    regards in advance.
    P.S.: Sorry for my english. 

    SomeoneElse
    thanks for the response.
    I setting the service to start manually because otherwise windows is slow to startup.
    In particular I have precisely this oracle service on my operating system after installation.

    - ) OracleServiceSYSDBA
    What are the services that start the server and I have to launch?
    What is the client program in menu --> start -- > all program --> Oracle - OraClient 11g home..... that I have to use for querying database?
    thanks.

  • Can Oracle Database 10g and Oracle Database 10g Express Edition co-exist ?

    I just installed Oracle Database 10g Express Edition. But I also want to access isql*plus for study purposes.
    Can I download/install Oracle Database 10g without removing Oracle Database 10g Express Edition ?

    I decided to download and install Oracle 10g myself and it was pretty quick to install. So I answered my own question : Oracle 10g Express is definitely able to co-exist with Oracle 10g no problem.
    I want to post/share this answer for others who started with Oracle 10g express first - the journey I started.
    The url isql*plus is displayed near the end of the installation together with the enterprise manager url. Pretty cool.
    Now I can learn both Oracle 10g enterprise edition and Oracle 10g Express which is based on apex engine.

  • Oracle database read and write?

    I want to see on the basis of the Oracle database table to read and write rates.How can I see

    A table can exists across multiple tablespaces. A tablespace can consists of several data files. Data files can be across multiple ASM diskgroups. An ASM diskgroup can consists of multiple LUNs. A LUN can comprise of several physical disks on the storage system.
    So what EXACTLY is the problem?
    What will a magic metric of "20 writes/25 reads" on the EMP table tell you? What would this mean and how would these numbers be applied to make the system better?
    In other words - you have come up with a solution that needs write/read rate on a table. You have not told us what problem this solution of yours will address. We need to know the problem - as a solution is only ever as good as the accuracy and detail of the problem description.
