Additional licenses reuired for using Sql Tuning Advisor In SQL Developer 4.0.3

Hi,
We have Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0. Do we need to purchase an additional oracle license for using SQL Tuning Advisor Option in SQL Developer 4.0.3 

We have Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0. Do we need to purchase an additional oracle license for using SQL Tuning Advisor Option in SQL Developer 4.0.3 
The Oracle Tuning Pack is DATABASE functionality - it is part of the database. Sql Developer just uses it.
Yes - to use ANY of the features of the tuning pack requires an extra cost license.

Oracle Tuning Pack
The Oracle Tuning Pack provides database administrators with expert performance management for the Oracle environment, including SQL tuning and storage optimizations. The Oracle Diagnostic Pack is a prerequisite product to the Oracle Tuning Pack. Therefore, to use the Tuning Pack, you must also have a Diagnostic Pack.
The Tuning Pack includes the following features:
  SQL Access Advisor
  SQL Tuning Advisor
  Automatic SQL Tuning
  SQL Tuning Sets
  SQL Monitoring
  Reorganize objects
In order to use the features listed above, you must purchase licenses for the Tuning Pack, with one exception: SQL Tuning Sets can be used if you have licensed either the Tuning Pack or Oracle Real Application Testing. A new initialization parameter, CONTROL_MANAGEMENT_PACK_ACCESS, is introduced to control access to the Diagnostic Pack and Tuning Pack in the database server. This parameter can be set to one of three values:
  DIAGNOSTIC+TUNING: Diagnostic Pack and Tuning Pack functionally is enabled in the database server.
  DIAGNOSTIC: Only Diagnostic Pack functionality is enabled in the server.
  NONE: Diagnostic Pack and Tuning pack functionally is disabled in the database server.
The Tuning Pack functionality can be accessed by the Enterprise Manager links as well as through the database server command-line APIs. The use of either interface requires licensing of the Tuning Pack

  • SQL Tuning Advisor evaluates statement using wrong plan_hash_value

    The execution plan for one of my SQL statements changed this morning. The statement is in a third-party package. The new plan runs worse than the old plan. I had the SQL tuning advisor evaluate the statement. I ran it three times. Each time it evaluated the original plan, not the new one. I can tell that because the plan_hash_value shown in the advisor's recommendations is the old plan's plan_hash_value. The old plan no longer appears in DBA_HIST_SQL_PLAN. I do not understand why the advisor is using the original plan, nor where it is getting it. It does not show up in Oracle Enterprise Manager either.
    Has anyone see this before?
    Do you have any suggestions how I can force the advisor to evaluate the new execution plan?
    I am running Oracle Database Server 10gR2 Enterprise Edition.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Following advice given earlier, I ran the SQL Tuning Advisor by executing DBMS_SQLTUNE from within a SQL*Plus session instead of via Oracle Enterprise Manager. The problem I originally encountered in OEM also happened using DBMS_SQLTUNE. Using DBMS_SQLTUNE I specified plan_hash_value => '3657286666' but the results of running create_tuning_task shows that the utility used a different plan_hash_value. See below:
    Based on this, I think the problem I originally blamed on OEM's creation of a SQL Tuning Advisor job was misdirected. I now believe that OEM supplied the proper information to the advisor, but the advisor did not correctly use what is was given.
    Below is what I submitted when I ran create_tuning_task and execute_tuning_task. Note that the value assigned to plan_hash_value is 3657286666. Following the messages from execute_tuning_task, see the output produced by the execution of report_tuning_task. In EXPLAIN PLANS SECTION heading 1 - ORIGINAL, note that Plan Hash Value = 3541843898.
    I submitted instructions to use plan_hash_value 3657286666 but instead it used 3541843898. Why did it do this??????
    I have not found a published bug that describes this condition.
    Thanks,

  • Sql tuning advisor for concurrent requests

    Dear all,
    I am having one doubt in my mind from very long time.Can we use sql tuning advisor from 10G(EM) to tune concurrent requests and reports?
    Regards

    Hi Helios,
    I am just thinking wiht voice. If you have one code blog which is typed in sql-pl/sql for your concurrent request, its going and run on dbtier. So it has one SQL'ID and also can be check on AWR report. So i belive you can use sqltuning adviser for to can tune related sqlAFAIK, some Instances a single concurrent request may contain multiple SQLID's and in that scenario tuning approach is difficult. Any information how can we consolidate it. If tune one specific sql then the explain plan for other sql become more worst. I came across this situation so many time.
    Any information or inputs on this is really appreciated.
    thanks,
    X A H E E R

  • SQL tuning Advisor for old statements

    Hi all,
    i've identified SQL ID (through snapshots AWR) that make me performance problem. This is a old select statement (Mar 10, 2008) and when i try to run sql tuning advisor, it shows me this error:
    "There was a problem creating a SQL tuning task. ORA-13780: SQL statement does not exist. ORA-06512"
    I've set AWR for retain 60 days of Snapshot Retention, why i can't run tuning advisor for this statement??
    thanks very much for answers.
    Andrea

    Hi
    The problem is that the information of AWR is based on Historical information that Oracle retrieve of historical tables . AWR means Automatic Workload Repository.
    But when you execute the SQL tuning advisor task, Oracle needs retrieve the information of sql statement from SHARED POOL.
    The Library Cache is a part of Shared pool and contains an area named SQLAREA that stored information of execution plan for sql statements. This memory area is managed by LRU alghoritm.(last recently used) and the error is produced because this sql statement not is stored in this memory area.
    When the sql stament not reside in memory Oracle can't build the execution plan and then the error appear

  • Enterprise Manager - sql tuning advisor , Access advisor for SQL Tuning

    Hi,
    NO I mean in oracle 10g you have the enterprise manager which can be used to tune sql statements using the SQL ADvisor and SQL access advisor.
    I believe in oracle 10g the process of SQL Tuning is slightly easier using the Enterprise Manager ...so if some one could explain me that process...
    Again thanking you in advance

  • Differernce between SQL Tuning Pack and SQL Tuning Advisor, Access Advisor

    Hi. all.
    I have been using "TKPROF" in order to tune SQL till now.
    I am learning 10g, and would like to know the difference
    between "1. SQL Tuning Pack" and "2. SQL Tuning Advisor, Access Advisor".
    Are they same thing? If not, what are the differences in their "functionality"?
    All I know is that SQL Tuning Pack is not free, and SQL Tuning Advisor
    is packed with default installation. Right???
    Could you give me some html links or your "any advice and experience"?
    Thanks in advance. Have a good day.
    Best Regards.

    Hi,
    There are alternatives to the Oracle tuning packs, and remember the SQL advisors are relatuively simple, finding missing indexes and recommending MV's.
    A human can do a better job if you use the right techniques.
    BTW, you can get a SQLTuning advisor license online for only $3k:
    http://www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_news/2005_3_17_dql_tuning_access_advisor_licenses_available_online.htm
    SHAMELESS PITCH! - I wrote a book that describes techniques for tuning with scripts, instead of the advisors, if you are interested:

  • SQL tuning advisor recommnds to create SYS_OP_C2C function based index

    I have a large table and one index on it. I use some tool to populate data, this tool simple submits the sql to Oracle DB and it does NOT use use index for queries. When I run the sql tuning advisor it recommends to create additional index and use SYS_OP_C2C function, which I do not want.
    When I run the query via sql plus it picks up the index.
    Have any of you come across, why its recommending this additional non-sense?
    create index abc.xxxx on this_table(SYS_OP_C2C("this_column"));
    Thanks

    The internal Oracle function SYS_OP_C2C performs conversion from one character set to another character set - C(haracterSet)2C(haracterSet). There are situations when one will see this conversion going on without explicit command as in this case what should be a sign that the data types are not the same and implicit conversion is taking place and this might be also a problem from performance perspective as it may disable index usage.
    Make sure you the characterset and nls defined of any of the database and tool are same.
    Make sure the data type of the column on the index is same as database.
    Confirm with ETL vendor for your database support and any patches etc.
    Optimizer will only advise to use that function when characterset or data type does not match.
    Thanks,

  • What is this SQL Tuning Advisor's Advice means

    HI ,
    I am Tuning a query wit hthe help of ORACLE 10 g 's SQL Tuning Advisor.I got the following recommendation .
    **Consider removing the disconnected table or view from this statement or add a join condition which refers to it.**
    I didn't understand what does this mean.
    Can anyone please help me
    Thanks,

    Simply saying if i apply that profile i will get Good plan.But I want to change the SQL itself rather than applying profile.in that case what can be done.Automatic SQL Tuning deals with this problem with its SQL Profiling capability. The Automatic Tuning Optimizer creates a profile of the SQL statement called a SQL Profile, consisting of auxiliary statistics specific to that statement. The query optimizer under normal mode makes estimates about cardinality, selectivity, and cost that can sometimes be off by a significant amount resulting in poor execution plans. SQL Profile addresses this problem by collecting additional information using sampling and partial execution techniques to verify and, if necessary, adjust these estimates.During SQL Profiling, the Automatic Tuning Optimizer also uses execution history information of the SQL statement to appropriately set optimizer parameter settings, such as changing the OPTIMIZER_MODE initialization parameter setting from ALL_ROWS to FIRST_ROWS for that SQL statement.
    If you want to change the SQL, You can re-write the SQL and evaluate the Performance recommendations SQL tuning Advisor.

  • SQL Tuning Advisor (STA) recommends indexes that already exists?

    I have enabled the STA to run twice a week, while we are going live with a new application in a new database. I want to insure we have good performance as the load goes up. I was not involved in the original design, which there not not much of, I've discovered. Since we are licensed for it, it seemed like a safe thing to turn on.
    The STA ran last night and the report tells me it looked at 736 SQLs with findings, 143 without findings, and skipped 0.
    What puzzles me is that, in the "Statistics Finding Summary", it's reporting stale stats on some tables which I know are up to date, as I ran stats on them yesterday and there were no updates to them.
    Worse, in the "Index Finding Summary", it reports indexes needed that already do, in fact, exist.
    Is there some reason for this? Is there some way to get the STA to be aware of these and avoid the erroneous findings so that I can concentrate on real ones?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    Hi Mark,
    Thanks for your interest, yes, the index is being used . Here is the evidence that you were asking about.

  • Oracle 10g SQL Tuning Advisor

    I am working as a junior DBA. I tried to tune a query using SQL Tuning Advisor that is with DBMS_SQLTUNE.I have created the tuning task successfully with DBMS_SQLTUNE.create_tuning_task.But when i execute the tuning task with EXEC DBMS_SQLTUNE.execute_tuning_task() i got an error like
    SQL> EXEC DBMS_SQLTUNE.execute_tuning_task(task_name => 'rep_three');
    BEGIN DBMS_SQLTUNE.execute_tuning_task(task_name => 'rep_three'); END;
    ERROR at line 1:

    I tried to execute DBMS_SQLTUNE as DWH user.I have granted the advisor,DROP ANY SQL PROFILE,ALTER ANY SQL PROFILE,CREATE ANY SQL PROFILE privileges and DBA roles to the DWH user. The way i ran DBMS_SQLTUNE is, first i logged in as DWH user and i tried to execute the query for getting the SQL_ID for the query. For getting the SQL_ID i selected the SQL_ID column value for the DWH user session from v$session.I kept that query executing and meanwhile i opened another session as DWH user and created the tuning task as follows
    DECLARE
      l_sql_tune_task_id  VARCHAR2(100);
    BEGIN
      l_sql_tune_task_id := DBMS_SQLTUNE.create_tuning_task (
                              sql_id      => 'b65fj39dkkb9v',
                              scope       => DBMS_SQLTUNE.scope_limited,
                              time_limit  => 3600,
                              task_name   => 'rep_three',
                              description => 'Report Tuning');
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('l_sql_tune_task_id: ' || l_sql_tune_task_id);
    END;
    /The creation of tuning task was successful.And i executed the tuning task as follows
    EXEC DBMS_SQLTUNE.execute_tuning_task(task_name => 'rep_three');The above mentioned errors came when i executed the tuning task.
    I am also adding the query which i have tried to tune
