Advance Tuning Books suggestion.

Hi Guru's,
Please suggest me some books for Advance Tuning.
Upto my understanding I feel I know some of the basic concepts of tuning.
Please advice me books on RAC also.
Thanks in advance

Hi Hans,
but not for the publisher of the other books you reference in which you appear to have an interest I'm only the Series Editor at Rampant (I'm not allowed to handle money!), and it's only my job to snag the best authors that I can find, then ride them hard to produce great Oracle books.
I'm proud to be helping these authors with their work, so OK, I guess that they deserve a shameless plug too.
Dr. Tim Hall (Oracle ACE of the year) - A FANTASTIC PL/SQL tuning book:
http://www.rampant-books.com/book_2006_1_plsql_tune.htm
Alexey Danchenkov and I created this 950-page monster tuning book which took us two years to complete:
http://www.rampant-books.com/book_2005_1_awr_proactive_tuning.htm
Kent Crotty has a god HTML-DB (Apex) book that shows aplication tuning:
http://www.rampant-books.com/book_2005_2_html_db.htm
Mike Ault has a collection of Oracle tuning scripts:
http://www.oracle-tuning.com
But let's not forget some of the other great Oracle tuning authors. Here are some of my personal favs, but not all:
Chris Lawson: A GREAT Oracle tuning book:
http://www.amazon.com/Art-Science-Oracle-Performance-Tuning/dp/1590591992
Guy Harrison of Quest - Dated, but the best SQL tuning book around:
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-SQL-High-Performance-Tuning-2nd/dp/0130123811
For application server tuning, don't miss Col. John Garmany's 10g AS book:
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Application-Administration-Handbook-Osborne/dp/0072229586/sr=1-5/qid=1167774708/ref=sr_1_5/104-1093814-8623900?ie=UTF8&s=books
Jonathan Gennick has a Regular Expressions book which realy helps for Oracle tuning:
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Regular-Expressions-Pocket-Reference/dp/0596006012/sr=1-1/qid=1167774799/ref=sr_1_1/104-1093814-8623900?ie=UTF8&s=books
Dave Krienes has an outtanding DBA book with tuning tips, very nice:
http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Pocket-Guide-David-Kreines/dp/0596100493/sr=1-5/qid=1167774919/ref=sr_1_5/104-1093814-8623900?ie=UTF8&s=books

  • Problems with Advanced Address Book Search

    Recently was running TB 24.2 under Ubuntu 12.4. All ran great, except could not search the Notes field in my address book. Got help from this forum and installed MoreFunctionsForAddressBook. This made the Notes field available for searching in the Quick Search window and in the Advanced Address Book Search dialog box (Edit > Search Addresses). Problem solved!
    Now have upgraded to TB 31.2.0. Quick Search window still works fine, including searching the Notes field. However, the Notes field is no longer listed in the Advanced Address Book Search, AND the Advanced Address Book Search does not work at all. I get zero results for any search on any field.
    Is the Advanced Address Book Search broken in TB 31.2.0? If not, any ideas on what I might have set up wrong to keep it from functioning? Any diagnostic I could run?
    Also, does MoreFunctionsForAddressBook no longer add fields to the Advanced search?
    I have worked on this for hours, with no luck. Suggestions are welcomed.

    Toad-Hall ---- Thanks very much!!! I completely missed the new version of the plug-in. I upgraded TB to v 31 and wasn't bright enough to think about the add-on compatibility.
    With MoreFunctions 0.7.1, my Advanced Search (Edit > Search Addresses) now has a lengthy list of search-field choices, including the Notes field. This is a life saver for me, since that's where all my keywords are.
    You really bailed me out on this one! Many thanks.

  • Looking for Bi Performance & Tuning book for BI...

    Hi
    I am looking for BI-7 (Performance & Tuning) book. Actually i looked  SAP Press site & found book "SAP BW Performance Optimization Guide" but its BW-3.5 based but I want for BI 7.
    Pls. Suggest me any good book on this topic.
    Thanks
    Edited by: Harpal Singh on Oct 5, 2010 9:45 AM

    I am also a BI developer...
    "SAP NetWeaver BW: Administration and Monitoring:
    offers a lot of insight into what happens when loading happens and also talks in length about how to tune the system using RSADMIN parameters etc...
    I found this book very useful and in fact it helped me a lot preparing for the BI Professional exam in data modeling ...
    and to answer your question - the BW performance tuning book also talks a lot about memory allocation / consumption etc which might be stuff that is usually used by BASIS ... and since the concepts are the same  - you could go with the 3.5 book and get to know the options you have ...

  • Can anybody recommend useful performance and tuning books.   I plan to take the 12c perf tune beta on March 21st

    Can anybody recommend any useful performance and tuning books.
    I should probably limit my search to 11g or higher.
    I am starting to prep for the 12c perf and tuning beta I have scheduled on March 21st.
    Thanks Roger

    Hi,
    I will review your review.
    I do see this Oracle 12c book at Amazon written over a year ago.
    Its not a certificaiton book.
    I also did take the course at Oracle for 11g performance and tuning.
    Amazon book:
    Oracle Database 12c Performance Tuning Recipes: A Problem solving approach.
    Thanks Roger

  • Automatic clearing of Advance while booking invoice

    Hi
    How can I clear the advance payment at the time of Booking invoice.
    I don't want to run F-54 separately for clearing the advance payment.
    I also want to have WHT (TDS) entries passed at the time of booking invoice.
    Is there any way? Can anyone suggest the TCode for the same.

    HI Kapil
    you have to follow the standard method of
    F-47-DPR
    F-48-DP made (with TDS on advance paid)
    MIRO-Invoice posting with TDS amount
    F-54 Advance clearing  against Invoice
    No other short cut for this.

  • Using Michael Wohl et al's FCPX Advanced Editing book in 10.1

    Hi
    I got Final Cut Pro X Advanced Editing (by Michael Wohl, Alexis Van Hurkman and Mark Spencer) out of the library. It has 2 dvds set up with events and projects folders as per pre-10.1. I've followed instructions and copied the sparseimages to an external drive.
    I suppose I could mount the sparseimages and open fcpx and click update and choose the location which would then create a library with those folders contents. Though maybe I should copy the sparseimages folders to my drive first and then click update otherwise fcpx might try to create a library in the sparseimage which I doubt it could do. Hmm. It's late, my brain is a bit fuzzy.
    Any suggestions on best way to make it usable for 10.1?
    best
    elmer

    Thanks, Tom!
    Ben: Is that the one by Boykin? You can suggest books to the library and I believe that's the one I did suggest and they have ordered it.

    Also, do not forget Paul, Jonathan  and Kimberly's excellent

  • Need book suggestions

    Hi All,
    My brother has just started to study the Java language.
    I would like to help him buying some GOOOOOOOOD book.
    Do you have some suggestions for me ?
    I've heard Thinking in Java 4th edition, Head First Java 2nd edtion and Sams teach yourself Java in 21 days are very good ones and covers the new Java 5 version.
    What are your opinions about these three books. What is better ? Are there another good ones for begginers ?
    Does Head First Java 2nd Edition cover all new Java 5 features, such as Generics, Wrapper Classes, AutoBoxing, StringBuilder, Covariant returns, etc ... ?
    And finally, which one comes with a CD-ROM containing code exercises and/or a book in pdf version for studying on-the-go ?
    I am really interested about your suggestions.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Edisandro.

    Hi jverd,
    I'm sorry to crosspost this question.
    After my first post, I thought that I choosed an
    unappropriate thread. So I thought I would post my
    question in a most appropriate thread.
    I'm sorry jverd.That's okay. If that happens again, please provide a link in the original thread to the new one, and a quick comment saying why you did it. That will keep the discussion centered in one place.

  • Advanced (or semi-advanced) OSX Books... Advice?

    Hi people.
    I'm hoping this is the right place to post... Basically, I've been using Macs now for 9 years-I'm a Graphic Designer by qualification, but in the real world, this just hasn't materialised. So, of late, I've been considering re-training, learning a new skill. And after some lengthy telephone calls and discussions with partners, elders, friends, I'm going to go down the Apple Certified Technician route. I love Apple products and hardware/software, and working with something I love being around sounds like a good career prospect. I'm young, no real commitments, and there do seem to be alot of jobs locally that ask for people with good Apple training/user knowledge, so I've figured why not.
    I've been in-touch with an authorised training centre, explained the situation, what I'd like to achieve, and based on the user knowledge I have, which course would they recommend I consider. Basically the guy said that 'Mac OSX Essentials' is a good place to start. I'm sure at £950 it is! I can't help but feel a little intimidated by the cost, how much there is to learn and the fact the course is 3 days. Thats alot of cramming! So, what I'm trying to do is get some books about OSX so I can learn a bit more first. Thing is, it's alot harder than it sounds!
    Basically, from my own experience-there are an abundance of 'Beginner' Mac books. There are also loads on PC > Mac. There are lots of specific books about iLife and related software etc. Heck, there are even books titled something like 'So you're a senior and you're learning to use a Mac'. All these books are great, but as I thumb through them, all the info is very basic and not as informative as I need them to be.
    I want to learn more about OSX-how it works, why DU pumps out codes like 'dr-wr-wrx'. I want to know what they mean, why they change-I want to learn about system processes etc. I know all this stuff could be found on the internet, but I can't use my iMac on the train or in the canteen at work! I want a kind of book titled something like 'Advanced OSX' or something. I was wondering if anybody had a book they can recommend, or know of a book that may suit my needs-something I can carry in my rucksack so if I have the chance to have a read I can!
    Sorry for the tragically long post...I felt the need to be very precise about my requirements!
    Dan

    I recommend doing the training that Apple suggests for the course and certification - links below. I would just use the book they recommend for that specific course. As quoted from the first link, "The primary reference for this exam is the book: Apple Training Series: Mac OS X Support Essentials (Peachpit, 2008)".

    Best book for Swing that I've seen so far is [The online Java Tutorial]Yes, big yes.
    One note though: I'm a bit suspicious against the "Learning Swing with the NetBeans IDE" tone the tutorial recently took, but I'm not sure of your objective:
    - If you want to learn Swing, the IDE might get in the way (the generated code has acceptable quality, but Netbeans prevents you to edit it directly). If this is your objective, I'd recommend to follow the tutorial (a very good resource, indeed), but to code things manually (the tutorial provides downloadable and copy-pastable examples). One area where NetBeans' visual design helps is experimenting with layout managers: it's easy to right-clik in the GUI builder and see the effect of the changes.
    - now if you want to quickly set up a GUI for an app with limited investment in learning Swing, I find NetBeans' GUI builder quite handy. AFAIC, I use a duo of Eclipse/NetBeans, depending on the task (taking care not to overwrite NetBeans's protected sections when I edit throug hEclipse).
    - One colleague that used to work with VB tools once mentioned that NB was far late compared to the tools he used to work with, but I suspect what he was referring to were binding widgets to business logic results (reading DB tables, etc..;). NetBeans now addresses these areas too, although I don't use it for that.
    Good luck with Swing.

  • Address Book Suggestion: See who is NOT in a Group

    I recently moved all of my contacts from Entourage to the Address Book in OS X, and am very happy with it. On top of the ease of use of the Address Book, its integration with MobileMe and the iPhone is wonderful.
    As I organized and updated my 300+ contacts, I began to sort them into Groups. I quickly found that I could move people to the group easily, but I had a hard time remembering who was NOT in that group already.
    I would like to suggest adding a view or filter to see who is NOT in a given group. That way, you can quickly scan your list of contacts, and add any that are missing, completing the group.
    Thank you!

    This would work for contacts that are only in one group, but some are in more than one - rather than creating a smart group for every group (doubling the number of groups I have), I would like to suggest this be a feature of the Address Book app, much like how Home Sharing in iTunes 9 will tell you what music is NOT in your current library, so you can choose to import it.

  • Can't order photo book, suggestions?

    Whenever I try to order a photo book through Aperture, it requires me to login in with my apple id. Which I enter, but then I have to go through the steps to verify my acct as if it's a new account (password, secret question, but it recognizes my birthday already).
    Then I verify my address, which it populates automatically, but doesn't like the city, state, zip code portion.
    I reenter that info.
    Eventually, it'll give me more errors, usually ending with "try again later".
    Does anyone have any suggestions on what I'm missing?
    I had hoped there was an update I was missing to Aperture, but everything is current.
    I've gone through my account settings, verified my address, created a new password.
    Now, I'm at a loss of what's creating the issue.
    If anyone has any input, it'd be greatly appreciated.
    thanks
    jp

    yeah, i came across that issue too when i was trying to solve this problem.
    sure enough, my password was too short by today's standards.
    so i've updated everything.
    still the same issue though, won't let me order
    thanks though
    anyone have any other suggestions to make aperture accept my appleid, so i can order?
    thanks
    jp
    btw, i've just updated aperture too

  • Advanced java book needed

    i need a throrough java book to add to my collection which goes over the most advanced of java programming (reflection, polymorphism etc...) in hopefully one book which has clear examples. if you know of one please give me isbn or title/author id be so grateful. thanks!

    So many topics though!
    There is a book on Java thread ("Java Threads v2"?)
    There are several books on java optimization (like use StringBuffer instead of String)
    The Java Lang Spec 2 book.
    The Java Virtual Machine 2 book.
    The Java Native Inteface 2 book.
    I suspect the Sedgewick Algorithms book is good, unless you already have one for another language.
    There are some enterprise level books but no titles I can recall right now.
    And naturally there are books that apply to advanced java work like some of the design books (like the UML stuff.)

  • Java Book Suggestion

    I just finished my first java course which covered everything up to and including composition, inheritence and polymorphism. However this course was taught with the programs running at the command line. So I am looking for a good book that covers gui's, panels, layout managers etc, that will reinforce the concepts I have already learned but will also give me some experience with some more advanced topics.

    As stated in literally 100's of posts--the [Java Tutorial by Sun.|http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/]

Maybe you are looking for
