About database archive

Dear sir
i hav Created One RFC for data base archive..
My archive program was working fine.. i used function module for read the data...
while executing This RFC its shows one popup for selecting session and files ..
under this pop up its shows all the archive objects like 000623 , 000573 number like that.,
manually i am selecting the number instead of how can fetch all numbers in back ground..
CALL FUNCTION 'ARCHIVE_OPEN_FOR_READ'
    EXPORTING
ARCHIVE_DOCUMENT         = '000623'
ARCHIVE_NAME             = ' '
      object                   = 'SD_VBRK'
MAINTAIN_INDEX           = ' '
   IMPORTING
     archive_handle           = handle
   NOT_AUTHORIZED           = 7
   OTHERS                   = 8 .
Thanks

Hello there and happy new year !
Thanks for the link, according to the documentation in this link, I'm supposed to install
SAPSECULIB (I don't have enough rights in my MarketPlace account to download softwares).
However, as I understand (please correct me if I'm wrong) what I have installed on my PC
is not a complete SAP system. It is just a trial version with an ABAP server allowing to test
local codes and developing. Are you sure that SAPSECULIB goes as well with a trial version
of SAP? because I checked in the installation package, there were no SAPSECULIB to install so
I thought maybe it is not going to work with this version of SAP Netweaver (Yet, it is strange
because in the download page it is specifed that we may create web dynpro with this package)
Thanks in advance,

Few basic questions about database administration

Hello,
I have a few basic questions about database administration.
1. I switched one of my oracle instances to archivelog mode. I just cannot locate the archive log files on my windows system. The %ora_home%/ora92/database/archive directory is desperately empty...
2.What is the tools01.dbf datafile used for?
3.What is the undotbso1.dbf datafile used for?
Thanks in advance,
Julien.

1. The archive log location needs to be specified in your init.ora file. By default, Oracle will place the archive files in either ORACLE_HOME/dbs or ORACLE_HOME/database.
2. The tools01.dbf file belongs to the tools tablespace which should be set as the default tablespace for system. It primary purpose is to hold Oracle Forms and Reports database objects, however, it should also be used for holding other non sys database objects such as the perfstat (statspack) or other third party database schemas e.g. quests sqllab.
3. undotbs01.dbf file belongs to the undo tablespace.

How often should a database archive its logs

Oracle 9i, Windows 2003
Our production database archives logs every 2mins and retaining those logs is becoming a problem, I was wondering if its healthy for a database to archive log evry 2mins and if not what do i need to do.
thanks in advance

I did see the link you posted earlier and it doesn't say very much, does it? Apart from
(1) big logs don't affect LGWR performance
(2) small logs will cause extra checkpoints to take place apart from those you wanted to take place by setting FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET
Well, taken together, both those points mean big logs are good news and small ones aren't. Which is exactly what I said above!
Unfortunately, you've completely missed the actual point I was making. It had nothing to do with "recovery time being a concern" nor with 100M being 100M and taking the same amount of time to apply.
It was actually point (2) above. I want logs big enough not to cause rapid log switching. But I have bulk loads. Therefore, I have to have ENORMOUS logs to prevent rapid log switching during those times. In fact, on one database I am connected to right now, I have 2GB redo logs which nevertheless manage to switch every 8 minutes on a Friday night. You can imagine the frequency of log switches we had when those logs were originally created at 5MB each! And the number of redo allocation retries...
Personally, I'd like 8GB logs to get it down to a log switch every 30 minutes or so on a Friday night, but with multiple members and groups, that's just getting silly.
But now I have an enormous log that will take forever and a day to fill up and switch when I'm NOT doing bulk loads. Ordinarily, without a forced log switch, my 2GB log takes 3 days to fill up.
If I were to have a catastrophic hardware failure, I could lose my current redo log. FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET can't do anything to ameliorate that loss: flushing the dirty buffers to disk regularly doesn't protect my data, actually. In fact, there is no way to recover transactions that are sitting in the current redo log if that log is lost. Therefore, having an enormous log full of hours and hours (in my case, about 72 hours'-worth) of redo is a massive data loss risk, and not one I'm prepared to take.
Therefore, ARCHIVE_LAG_TARGET allows me to have huge logs to deal with (2) above, but not to have more than half an hour's data at risk from total loss.
I know why the parameter was invented. I can understand the word "target" in its name, after all. But the WAY it achieves its design goals is simply to force log switches. And forcing log switches is a good thing for everyone to be able to do, when appropriate, even if they're not using Data Guard and standby databases.
You are at liberty, of course, to keep on reserving your opinion, but in this case it's ill-informed and missing the point: loss of the current log is not nice and regular log switches means the effects of that unlikely event happening are completely predictable and (importantly) containable.
That's just one advantage, not "loads". But it's a huge one.

I believe, 11i installation on Windows 2003 X64 is not fully supported.
what is your os version:
if it is windows 2003 32 bit, then it is supported on X86-64 servers for both database and application tiers
If it is windows 2003 64 bit, then only datatabase tier is supported on x86-64 servers

Standby database archive log apply in production server.

Dear All,
How I apply standby database archive log apply in production server.
Please help me.

How can i use standby database as primary for that 48 hour ?Perform a switchover (role transitions).
First check if the standby is in sync with the primary database.
Primary database:
sql>select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log; ---> Value AStandby database:
sql>select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log where applied='YES'; -----> Value BCheck if Value B is same as Value A.
If the standby is in sycn with the primary database, then perform the switchover operation (refer the below link)

Where to learn about database tuning from?

Hello,
I need to learn more about database tuning - practical aspect. Are there any sites/services that could help me? I can't use production environment of course, I need to prepare my own ones (Oracle DBs on linux and windows too) and workload too. How to simulate workload from many users?
Thanks in advance for help

How do you learn to paint? You can read every book on the subject, attend lectures by famous artists on paints and brushes and styles and what not..
None of this will turn you into an artist that can paint. Theory only goes that far.
And this is as true in performance tuning as in painting. You need to run into that brick wall called experience over and over again - and each time learn hard lessons that no theory can ever teach.
If performance tuning was that easy, we would have had fully automated tuning software in operating systems and database systems that could detect and fix all our performance woes on the fly.
Does not work like that.
Also, performance tuning is many times seen as an "after the fact" thing. Design the system. Code the software. Implement it. Then tune it.
Wrong. Also does not work like that.
Performance tuning begins at the very first workshop when brainstorming the basic design of the system. If performance and scalability are not part of that process, they cannot easily (if at all) be made to be part of the final system as a tuning exercise.
If I need to pass a single fundamental "uber-alles" principle for performance tuning - when dealing with it after the fact (as many of us do), then it is:
Identify The Problem
Do not confuse symptoms as the actual problem.
PS. Performance tuning is also many time (IMO) a situation where you have lost. Why? Because of if the code was designed and coded correctly, then there would not have been a performance issue. If the Oracle architecture was understood correctly, there would not be a problem. Which makes the advice by the other 2 posters so important. Understand Oracle. Understand how to design and code in Oracle. If done well, what is there left to performance tune?

Database Archiving mode

Hello all,
we are in upgrading BW 3.0B to BW 3.5 on MS Sql 2000. In the part of post upgrade activities, we need to check database archiving mode whether it is inactivation mode or disabled mode. How to check this? if it is disabled, how to activate database archive log mode?
Kindly help us.
kind regards,
Aruna,

Hi
Right click on the SAP database in Enterprise Manager - it is called the <SID> of your BW system.
There are three modes availabling - Simple, Bulk or Full.
You should set the mode to Full.

PCUI: Remove "Search in database/Archive" dropdown list in Opportunities

Hi,
I'd like to remove the "Search in database/Archive" dropdown list in the extended search in the Opportunities application (Z)CRMD_BUS2000111. The customer is not using an archive and as such this is a waste of screen real estate in his opinion (rightfully so, I'd say).
Now, I haven't seen a reference to this dropdown list in the fieldgroup definition, but I have seen the "data sources for queries" (I guess that's what it is called in english) node with two entries in there, Archive and Database.
Should I just delete the entry for the archive from there? Is is not used by other applications, and would I break something else with this?
Thanks
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Goto the transaction CRMC_BLUEPRINT.
In this transaction go to the following path.
Layout of People-Centric UI -> Application Element -> Search Group -> Search scenario
Inside this path select the entry OPP_GROUP and double-click on assign shuffler.
You would find two entries in the next screen. If you remove these entries the field would not appear in the Opportunity advanced search.
Reward points if this helped solve your problem!
Jash.

Industrial engineer study about Database System

As to improving database system efficiency, it is yes and no. No, you aren't likely to get into internals and compete against people with CS doctorates, but yes because applications do need an eye towards efficiency, and applications are where the money goes. As with so many things, it's the combination of technical ability and another kind of analytical ability that make you valuable to business. Business analysis goes through cycles and fads, what was once called business process reengineering will be called something else and have its gurus (just this morning I got an email about how BPM can improve my business). Just don't fall for any pie-in-the-sky internet entrepreneurs who promise to have the next SAP, go mainstream first, with at least what we in the US call a Masters degree.

Doubt about database point in time recovery using rman

Hi Everyone,
I have been practising various rman restore and recovery scenarios . I have a doubt regarding database point in time recovery using rman. Imagine i have a full database backup including controlfile scheduled to run at 10 PM everyday. today is 20th dec 2013. imagine i want to restore the database to a prior point in time ( say 18th dec till 8 AM). so i would restore all the datafiles from 17th night's backup and apply archives till 8 AM of 18th dec . in this scenario should i restore the controlfile too from 17th dec bkp ( i am assuming yes we should ) or can we use the current controlfile ( assuming it is intact). i found the below from oracle docs.
Performing Point-in-Time Recovery with a Current Control File
The database must be closed to perform database point-in-time recovery. If you are recovering to a time, then you should set the time format environment variables before invoking RMAN. The following are sample Globalization Support settings:
NLS_LANG = american_america.us7ascii
NLS_DATE_FORMAT="Mon DD YYYY HH24:MI:SS"
To recover the database until a specified time, SCN, or log sequence number:
After connecting to the target database and, optionally, the recovery catalog database, ensure that the database is mounted. If the database is open, shut it down and then mount it:
2. SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
3. STARTUP MOUNT;
4.
Determine the time, SCN, or log sequence that should end recovery. For example, if you discover that a user accidentally dropped a tablespace at 9:02 a.m., then you can recover to 9 a.m.--just before the drop occurred. You will lose all changes to the database made after that time.
You can also examine the alert.log to find the SCN of an event and recover to a prior SCN. Alternatively, you can determine the log sequence number that contains the recovery termination SCN, and then recover through that log. For example, query V$LOG_HISTORY to view the logs that you have archived.
RECID      STAMP      THREAD#    SEQUENCE# FIRST_CHAN FIRST_TIM NEXT_CHANG
         1 344890611          1          1      20037 24-SEP-02      20043
         2 344890615          1          2      20043 24-SEP-02      20045
         3 344890618          1          3      20045 24-SEP-02      20046
Perform the following operations within a RUN command:
Set the end recovery time, SCN, or log sequence. If specifying a time, then use the date format specified in the NLS_LANG and NLS_DATE_FORMAT environment variables.
If automatic channels are not configured, then manually allocate one or more channels.
Restore and recover the database.
The following example performs an incomplete recovery until November 15 at 9 a.m.
RUN
SET UNTIL TIME 'Nov 15 2002 09:00:00';
# SET UNTIL SCN 1000;       # alternatively, specify SCN
# SET UNTIL SEQUENCE 9923; # alternatively, specify log sequence number
RESTORE DATABASE;
RECOVER DATABASE;
If recovery was successful, then open the database and reset the online logs:
5. ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
I did not quiet understand why the above scenario is using current controlfile as the checkpoint scn in the current controlfile and the checkpoint scn in the datafile headers do not match after the restore and recovery. Thanks in Advance for your help.
Thanks
satya

Thanks for the reply ... but what about the checkpoint scn in the controlfile . my understanding is that unless the checkpoint scn in the controlfile and datafiles do not match the database will not open. so assuming the checkpoint scn in my current controlfile is 1500 and i want to recover my database till scn 1200. so the scn in the datafiles (which is 1200) is not not matching with the scn in the controlfile(1500). so will the database open in such cases.
Thanks
Satya

Questions about database access in WCS 7.x version

Hello,
In WCS version 7.x, events from controllers are stored in database. The limits for these events are 7 days and 40000 events. Does anyone know where we could change these limits?
In the other hand, we can´t access to database because we don´t know user and password to access database. Can anyone pass me default credentials for database?
What is the procedure to change database password in WCS version 7.x?
Thnaks in advance.

Don't know about username and password for the database, but this might help:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6305/products_qanda_item09186a00807a60f0.shtml
Q. How many alarms are kept in the WCS when are they cleared, and what is the average size of each alarm?
A. The WCS keeps the last 40,000 events in the system and clears them up after seven days. An event or alarm can have 1000 bytes on average.
A. Under the <WCS_INSTAL_DIR>/webnms/conf folder, there is a file called NmsProcessesBE.conf. Within this file, the user needs to modify the parameter CLEAN_EVENT_INTERVAL (default value is seven days) and the parameter EVENT_WINDOW_SIZE (default value is 40,000). The server needs to be stopped and restarted after the user makes the modifications.

Standby Database (Archive Log Mode)

I'm going to be setting up a standby database.
I understand that the primary database must be in archive log mode.
Is there any reason for the standby database to be in archivelog mode?

Since your primary Db is in archive log mode, so will be your standby, when it is made primary.But. you can use STANDBY REDO LOGS from 9i version, where these Standby Redo Logs then store the information received from the Primary Database.
As per metalink:-
>
Standby Redo Logs are only supported for the Physical Standby Database in Oracle 9i and as well for Logical Standby Databases in 10g. Standby Redo Logs are only used if you have the LGWR activated for archival to the Remote Standby Database.If you have Standby Redo Logs, the RFS process will write into the Standby RedoLog as mentioned above and when a log switch occurs, the Archiver Process of the Standby Database will archive this Standby Redo Log to an Archived Redo Log, while the MRP process applies the information to the Standby Database. In a Failover situation, you will also have access to the information already written in the Standby Redo Logs, so the information will not be lost.
