Doesn't look like a good class to me.
I don't know what the format is but anyone calculating time to the second isn't allowing discovery or questions.
Anyone offering to teach you Oracle on VM has totally ignored Oracle's support matrix.
16 minutes on Oracle processes? Is this the speed reader's version?
Time wasted on the deprecated product iSQL*Plus.
It looks like a total waste of both time and money.
A decent class just on RMAN is a minimum of two days.

  • What are the differences between the following Oracle database views?

    What are the differences between the following Oracle database views(or function)? Can they be instead of each other? Can all of them be used to pull out the execution plan from the library cache?

    V$SQL_PLAN
    DBA_HIST_SQL_PLAN
    dbms_xplan.display_cursor functionV$SQL_PLAN-this is dynamic perfomance view which contain execution plan information for each child cursor loaded in the library cache.
    DBA_HIST_SQL_PLAN- data dictionary view also contain execution plan information for each child cursor bun in workload repository.Actually this view captures information from V$SQL_PLAN and is used with the DBA_HIST_SQLSTAT .
    dbms_xplan.display_cursor - function displays explain plan of any cursor loaded in the cursor cache. See more information below links:

  • What are the following Fields meant to contain...?

    What info are the following Fields in iTunes meant to contain?
    'Comments', 'Description', 'Category', 'Grouping'?
    Thanks.

    They're not meant to contain anything, so they may be blank. However, those fields are there for various purposes. For example, pick any song or Podcast in your Library:
    Comments: this field can have a note about the song, Podcast etc. etc. Amazon use the Comments field to make a note of the Amazon ID they assign a song when they sell it to you. You can edit the Comments field if you wish, adding any note that you want, for your own purposes.
    Description: is used by Podcasters. They enter a description of their Podcast, typically a little information about that particular show. This field for a song etc, can be found (and edited) on the Videos tab of the song, (even if it's not a video!). Not all Podcasters make use of this field and not usually used in songs.
    Category: Used by iTunes Radio services, to identify the type of programming they offer. Also used by Podcasters. Not always used by either service and not usually used in songs.
    Grouping: Ah! Now, this is a good and useful field. Suppose you want a song to be in two different genres. Well, that cannot be done. However, if you want one song with genre "Rock" to also be included with all your "70's Pop" genre, simply type Rock into the grouping field and then create a Smart Playlist which has the rules: Genre is 70's Pop and Grouping is Rock. This Smart Playlist will have all the "70's Pop" genre in it and any song that you have typed "Rock" into the Grouping field. It will not have any of the other Rock genre in the list.
    Actually, a Smart Playlist can make use of any of the fields you have mentioned. So it's possible to create a Smart Playlist that picks out any song or Podcast etc. containing a particular word in the Description field and a different word in the Comments field.

  • What are the following entries doing in the following configuration file?

    What are the following entries doing in the following configuration file?
    Thank you
    <include>coherence-pof-config.xml</include>
    <allow-interfaces>true</allow-interfaces>
    <allow-subclasses>true</allow-subclasses>
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <!DOCTYPE pof-config SYSTEM "pof-config.dtd">

    <!-- com.tangosol.examples package -->
    <allow-interfaces>true</allow-interfaces>
    <allow-subclasses>true</allow-subclasses>
    </pof-config>

    <allow-interfaces> - The allow-interfaces element indicates whether the user-type class-name can specify Java interface types in addition to Java class types. Valid values are "true" or "false". Default value is false.
    <allow-subclasses> - The allow-subclasses element indicates whether the user-type class-name can specify a Java class type that is abstract, and whether sub-classes of any specified user-type class-name will be permitted at runtime and automatically mapped to the specified super-class for purposes of obtaining a serializer. Valid values are "true" or "false". Default value is false.
    <user-type-list> - The user-type-list element contains zero or more user-type elements. Each POF user type that will be used must be listed in the user-type-list. The user-type-list element may also contain zero or more include elements. Each include element is used to add user-type elements defined in another pof-config file.
    <include> The include element specifies the location of a pof-config file to load user-type elements from. The value is a locator string (either a valid path or URL) that identifies the location of the target pof-config file.

  • Are the following type equivalent?

    Hey guys, i want to know if a type of object is equivalent to a type of record. So ignore scoping issues, are the following types equivalent?
    create or replace type xml_row as object (xmlfragment varchar2(2000));
    create or replace type xml_tab is table of xml_row;
    /What i want to accomplish is the following equivalent
    create or replace package pac_a as
      type xml_row is record(xmlfragment varchar2(2000));
      type xml_tab is table of xml_row;
    end pac_a;
    /

    From a "data" point of view the types are equivalent.
    An object type has a set of functionalities that a classical record type doesn't have, first of all the possibility of creating a column of a table using this type...

  • In Logic Pro, trying to import a drum track from the bin to arrange area, the 'follow loop' box does not appear in the inspector

    imported a drum track from bin to arrange area.  It will not follow tempo of the project even though it was recorded in this project.  The 'follow tempo' box in the inspector does not appear even though it is present on other tracks in the file.
    how do I set up the track so the 'follow tempo' box appears in the inspector?

    Don't drag the midi into an open Logic project. The tracks won't set up correctly.
    'Open' the midi file with Logic as if it were a Logic project. Then all the tracks will be set up so you can start editing them and applying better saved sounds and instruments, but you'll be at a starting place where you can hear what's going on.

  • What are the tables Oracle EBS connector can connect to?

    Hello,
    Requirement
    As part of the project requirement for Oracle EBS application, we have the concept of BUYER account (PO_AGENTS) and Supplier account (PO_VENDORS). When the account has to be disabled from FND_USER and HR foundation table, the account has to be disabled (or removed based on the requirement) from all linked tables "PO_VENDORS" and "PO_AGENTS".
    Questions
    1) Does the out of the box Oracle EBS connector handles removing users from the tables "PO_AGENTS" and "PO_VENDORS" apart from "FND_Users" and "HR foundation" table?
    2) If no, what are the recommendations for achieving the above requirement?
    Thank You!

    No, OOTB the connector will not revoke the user entry from tables like PO_AGENTS etc .. You can customize the connector to do that .
    Explore the stored procedure which can revoke entries from the mentioned tables and wire it via a adapter .
    Regards
    Suren

  • Why are the following processes always using lots of memory?

    Can someone tell me why the following processes are always using lots of memory and are always running?
    kernel_task 280MB
    java 300MB
    clamd 120MB
    mds 100MB
    WindowServer 100MB
    coreservicesd 60MB

    Because they require that much memory and because the processes are always in use.
    This is one reason why the minimum system memory requirement is 1 GB.
    Now, you have one third-party process listed, clamd, which is used by ClamXAV anti-virus software. If you can uninstall it you will recover the memory needed by clamd.
