Applying the 10.2.0.4 database patchset with version-enabled tables

We recently applied the 10.2.0.4 database patchset to a database where we had a few version-enabled tables. Applying the patchset took a bit longer than expected and looking through the log, it took about 30 minutes to upgrade Workspace Manager.
1) I know in the past that Workspace Manager patches were separate from database patches. Metalink NOTE:341353.1 "Why does the Workspace Manager version differ from the current RDBMS patchset version" seems to indicate that this is no longer the case,
>
From patchset release V10.2.0.4 onwards, the Oracle Workspace Manager updates are integrated with the generic RDBMS patchsets.
>
But that statement seems to be an afterthought in a document clarifying a separate behavior. Is there another document (Metalink or otherwise) that discusses this change directly?
2) Does anyone have a good feeling for how long applying this and future patchsets should take when there are potentially large version-enabled tables in the system? I am hoping/ assuming that it is not a linear relationship, because the version-enabled tables we have at the moment are rather small. But I don't know whether the upgrade time is basically a constant or whether there is a dependency on the size of the version-enabled tables, the number of version-enabled tables, etc.
I am concerned that we may end up with very large version-enabled tables which would require substantial downtime when we apply future patchsets whether or not we needed the Workspace Manager fixes. I hope/ expect that this is not the case, but thought I would double-check.

Hi Justin,
#1. I could not find another document that discusses this, but I may just be missing it. I will see if there is something else, and let you know if I find something.
#2. There is a fixed and variable part of the upgrade for Workspace Manager. The fixed potion recompiles all of the packages/views, modifies metadata tables, etc used directly by Workspace Manager. The other potion is done for each version enabled table. First, the view and triggers maintained by Workspace Manager are rebuilt. This is generally a quick operation as it is not dependent on the size of the table. There is also the potential for data migration for each of the rows of the versioned table. If needed, this would take much longer to complete, but this type of migration has not been needed since about version 9.2. If you are upgrading from a version newer than this, then this part of the migration wold not be necessary.
Regards,
Ben

Problem by adding one spatial column to the version-enabled table

Hello, I'm trying to modify one version-enabled table T1 like this:
--table definition
create table T1
(ID NUMBER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
NAME VARCHAR2 (256),
FUNCTION VARCHAR2 (256));
--enable versioning
EXECUTE DBMS_WM.EnableVersioning('T1','VIEW_WO_OVERWRITE');
I'd like to add one spatial column to this table by:
-- modify metada view for spatial indexing
INSERT INTO USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA (TABLE_NAME, COLUMN_NAME, DIMINFO, SRID)
VALUES ('T1_LT', 'ANCHOR',
MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ARRAY
(MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('X', 0.000, 100000.000, 0.0005),
MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Y', 0.000, 100000.000, 0.0005),
MDSYS.SDO_DIM_ELEMENT('Z', -100, 1000, 0.0005)) , 81989002);
-- table modification - add a column and create a spatial index
EXECUTE DBMS_WM.BeginDDL('T1');
ALTER TABLE T1_LTS ADD ("ANCHOR" MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY);
CREATE INDEX T1_SPX on T1_LTS(ANCHOR) INDEXTYPE is MDSYS.SPATIAL_INDEX;
EXECUTE DBMS_WM.CommitDDL('T1');
By finishing of the DDL operation with EXECUTE DBMS_WM.CommitDDL('T1') I get an error message:
"SQL> EXECUTE DBMS_WM.CommitDDL('T1');
BEGIN DBMS_WM.CommitDDL('T1'); END;
ERROR at line 1:

What is wrong here? The Oracle 10g DB is installed on Windows 2003 Server, OWM_VERSION - 10.2.0.1.0.

Hi,
You need to explicitly grant the create table and create sequence privileges to the user owning the table. It is not enough for these to be granted by using a role. This restriction is documented in the user guide.
Also, you should add the entry in the user_sdo_geom_metadata view on the t1_lts table, which is the table to which you are actually adding the geometry column, after calling beginDDL. CommitDDL will make the necessary changes, which in this case would be to add an entry for both t1 and t1_lt.

SQL Server 2012 Database with FileStream enabled tables

Hi,
I have some questions concerning the SQL Server 2012 FileStream feature.
In a database combining both Filestream connected tables and none filestream connected tables. It is obviously possible to tell the root path to a filestream FILEGROUP. It's also possible to create database primary data file (.mdf) and several
optional secondary data files (.ndf), and multiple log files.
If I have two filestream connected tables, which each in turn have a couple of other referenced tables (none filestream connected). Is it possible to put the filestream filegroup1 (eg. the filestream connected table1) and its referenced none filestream connected
tables, their data, indexes etc., on the same physical data file? And the other filestream connected table and its referenced tables to another physical file (.ndf)? If this is possible and recommended, how do I declare such an create database statement?
For ex. when having tables for both none archived state, archived state, in the same database. Or is the best solution to split the two (and its referenced tables) in separate databases?
SWEDEV

Hello,
File groups a just contains for the objects, you e.g. can split one table over several file Groups/secondarie files using partitioning. And a filestream is also just a table. You can reference all table Independent of file Groups / file stream.

How to apply the changes in logical standby database

Hi,
I am new to Dataguard. I am now using 10.2.0.3 and followed the steps from Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration Guide to setup a logical standby database.
When I insert a record to a table from the primary database side, when i query the same table from the logical standby database, it doesn't show the new records.
Did I miss something? What I want to do is when I insert a record in the primary db, then the corresponding record will be inserted in the standby db.
Or I totally misunderstand what Oracle data guard is? Any help are appreciated.

Im using iphone 4, it was locked in japan, and i had it open line here in the philippines using gevey sim. the problem is there is no option to update the software and i cant download applications with version 4.2.1.

I want to know if I can update my software connecting my phone to laptop, there was a message that ios 6.2.1 is available to download and update my software that there will be no problem with signals and connection. thank you.

Well yes, of course your phone will have been locked in Japan because the Japanese phone companies do not offer unlocking to anyone, so you have effectively jailbroken your phone and can't get any help here.
Use Google instead.

Manually Apply Archived log to stand by database

Hi all,
I'm using Oracle 10g. So, we need to apply the archived logs of Primary database to stand by database, but this process must be manually.
A "robot" copy the archived logs to destination. I need to get these archived logs from destination and manually apply to stand by database.
How can I do this?
thank you very much!!!!

How can I do this?First stop current recover process as
alter database recover managed standby database cancel;Then transfer all need archive logs from primary to standby side and apply these manually using below command.
recover standby database until cancel
/*this command will ask full path of archive logs
and give these then finally enter "CANCEL" word*/Finally you can continue normal/automatic state using
alter database recover managed standby database ;

Disable all the foreign keys in a database

Hy, what sql to use to disable all the foreign keys in a database and how to enable all them again. Thanks

select * from dba_constraints where constraint_type = 'R' and status = 'ENABLED'
ALTER TABLE table_name
disable CONSTRAINT constraint_name;
ALTER TABLE table_name
enable CONSTRAINT constraint_name;
select
'ALTER TABLE ' || OWNER || '.' || table_name || ' enable CONSTRAINT ' || constraint_name || ';'
from dba_constraints where constraint_type = 'R' and status = 'ENABLED';
Execute and save result for enable before disable
select
'ALTER TABLE ' || OWNER || '.' || table_name || ' disable CONSTRAINT ' || constraint_name || ';'
from dba_constraints where constraint_type = 'R' and status = 'ENABLED';
Execute result for disable.

Insert XML file into Relational database model without using XMLTYPE tables

Dear all,
How can I store a known complex XML file into an existing relational database WITHOUT using xmltypes in the database ?
I read the article on DBMS_XMLSTORE. DBMS_XMLSTORE indeed partially bridges the gap between XML and RDBMS to a certain extent, namely for simply structured XML (canonical structure) and simple tables.
However, when the XML structure will become arbitrary and rapidly evolving, surely there must be a way to map XML to a relational model more flexibly.
We work in a java/Oracle10 environment that receives very large XML documents from an independent data management source. These files comply with an XML schema. That is all we know. Still, all these data must be inserted/updated daily in an existing relational model. Quite an assignment isn't it ?
The database does and will not contain XMLTYPES, only plain RDBMS tables.
Are you aware of a framework/product or tool to do what DBMS_XMLSTORE does but with any format of XML file ? If not, I am doomed.
Constraints : Input via XML files defined by third party
Storage : relational database model with hundreds of tables and thousands of existing queries that can not be touched. The model must not be altered.
Target : get this XML into the database on a daily basis via an automated process.
Cheers.
Luc.

Luc,
your Doomed !
If you would try something like DBMS_XMLSTORE, you probably would be into serious performance problems in your case, very fast, and it would be very difficult to manage.
If you would use a little bit of XMLType stuff, you would be able to shred the data into the relational model very fast and controlable. Take it from me, I am one of those old geezers like Mr. Tom Kyte way beyond 40 years (still joking). No seriously. I started out as a classical PL/SQL, Forms Guy that switched after two years to become a "DBA 1.0" and Mr Codd and Mr Date were for years my biggest hero's. I have the utmost respect for Mr. Tom Kyte for all his efforts for bringing the concepts manual into the development world. Just to name some off the names that influenced me. But you will have to work with UNSTRUCTURED data (as Mr Date would call it). 80% of the data out there exists off it. Stuff like XMLTABLE and XML VIEWs bridge the gap between that unstructured world and the relational world. It is very doable to drag and drop an XML file into the XMLDB database into a XMLtype table and or for instance via FTP. From that point on it is in the database. From there you could move into relational tables via XMLTABLE methods or XML Views.
You could see the described method as a filtering option so XML can be transformed into relational data. If you don't want any XML in your current database, then create an small Oracle database with XML DB installed (if doable 11.1.0.7 regarding the best performance --> all the new fast optimizer stuff etc). Use that database as a staging area that does all the XML shredding for you into relational components and ship the end result via database links and or materialized views or other probably known methodes into your relational database that isn't allowed to have XMLType.
This way you would keep your realtional Oracle database clean and have the Oracle XML DB staging database do all the filtering and shredding into relational components.
Throwing the XML DB option out off the window beforehand would be like replacing your Mercedes with a bicycle. With both you will be able to travel the distance from Paris to Rome, but it will take you a hell of lot longer.

How can I use a mySQL database schema with numeric auto increment primary key instead of GUID?

Hello!
I'm using the TestStand "MySQL Insert (NI)" database schema with GUID as primary key. So everything works fine.
But I prever using numeric values as primary key, because the database is in conjunction with another database which uses numeric values as primary key.
Is this possible?
Has anyone an idea how I can modify the "Generic Recordset (NI)" for use with MySQL?
Thanks!
Configuration:
Microsoft Windows XP
TestStand 3.1
MySQL 4.1.12a
MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver
Brosig

Adam -
The TestStand Database Logging feature does not allow you to run a separate SQL command after executing the command for a statement(table), so I do not think that you can use an auto incrementing column for the tables. There is just no way to get it back in a generic way. One option that I tried is something similar to the Oracle schema where you call a store procedure to return a sequence ID for each record that you want to add.
So you would have to create the following sequence table in MySQL:
CREATE TABLE sequence (id INT NOT NULL);
INSERT INTO sequence VALUES (0);
Then create a stored procedure as shown below that will increment the sequence value and return it in a recordset:
CREATE PROCEDURE `getseqid`()
BEGIN
        UPDATE sequence SET id=LAST_INSERT_ID(id+1);
        SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID();
END
Then update the MySQL tables to use INT primary and foreign key values, so the TestStand MySQL SQL file to create all tables would have text like this:
CREATE TABLE UUT_RESULT
ID    INT PRIMARY KEY,
~
CREATE TABLE STEP_RESULT
ID    INT PRIMARY KEY,
UUT_RESULT   INT NOT NULL,
~
Then update the schema primary and foreign key columns in the TestStand Database Options dialog box to be INT to match the table. For the primary key columns, you will have to set the Primary Key Type to "Get Value from Recordset" and set the Primary Key Command Text to "call getseqid()". This will call the stored procedure to determine the next value to use as the ID value.
Hope this helps...

Error in database parameter for star schema table in RSRV

Hi Experts,
In RSRV, I executed the following checks in my cube and it is showing me the following error:-
1) Check database parameter for star schema table for InfoCube ZMM_MVAL
564971 units missing from fact table /BIC/FZMM_MVAL; see details
Message no. RSRV134
Diagnosis
In the fact table /BIC/FZMM_MVAL records have been found that contain values other than zero for key figures that have units, but that have no value for the unit of the key figure. Since the value of the unit has to correspond to the value of the key figure, this inidicates an error when the data was loaded. The values of the units have not been loaded into BW correctly. Choose Details to display the incorrect records.
2) Consistency of time dimension of InfoCube ZMM_MVAL
/BIC/FZMM_MVAL PARTITIONED 1878 ( 30 - 50 )
Please advise me on this.
Thanks in Advance.
Aparna

As mentioned in the log, check the Unit KFs in your cube and make sure that unit is populated for all such values.
e.g. if Qty is 5 KG, then unit KF will have 5 and unit info object should have KF.

Apply the 10.2.0.5 patchset to database with 10.2.0.1 OWB Repository

We are planning to apply the 10.2.0.5 patchset to our 10.2.0.4 Data Warehouse database (10.2.0.4 ORACLE_HOME) that contains the 10.2.0.1 OWB Design and Runtime Repository (owbowner and owbrt_sys) schemas. The 10.2.0.1 OWB_HOME is a separte installation from the 10.2.0.4 RDBMS software.
We do need to upgrade the 10.2.0.1 OWB software, but did not want to do that at this time. If anyone has performed this task, would you please let us know if you ran into any issues/problems with the 10.2.0.1 OWB Repository after applying the 10.2.0.5 patchset to the database.
Thank you in advance

Hi,
There should not be any issue with OWB 10.2.0.1 and Oracle 10.2.0.5
We had this combination some time back and it worked without any issue.
Thanks,
Sutirtha
