Correction in oracle documentation

Hi all,
I found small issue when running a script in the documentation.
Verify the Setting Chain Privileges section the scripts mentioned in that section do not run at all (syntax errors probably)
Please verify the same from your end too.
I need this to be put forward by ace/moderators to Oracle documentation team.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/schedadmin.htm
existing code in documentation -- (incorrect version in my opinion)
BEGIN
DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE(DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_RULE_OBJ, 'username'),
DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_RULE_SET_OBJ, 'username'),
DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_EVALUATION_CONTEXT_OBJ, 'username')
END;
BEGIN
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_ANY_RULE,
                                         'username'),
DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_ANY_RULE_SET, 'username'),
DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_ANY_EVALUATION_CONTEXT, 'username')
END;
To be modified as:
BEGIN
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_RULE_OBJ, 'username');
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_RULE_SET_OBJ,
                                         'username');
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (
      DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_EVALUATION_CONTEXT_OBJ,
      'username');
END;
BEGIN
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_ANY_RULE,
                                         'username');
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_ANY_RULE_SET,
                                         'username');
   DBMS_RULE_ADM.GRANT_SYSTEM_PRIVILEGE (
      DBMS_RULE_ADM.CREATE_ANY_EVALUATION_CONTEXT,
      'username');
END;
/Cheers,
Manik.

Firstly thanks for moving the thread...
You could do it yourself.
How exactly?By posting here, in the Documentation forum <smiley>.
Which is now done. Hopefully someone from Oracle team will check it.
Or raise a service request, or comment out the page you think it's actually wrong.

    Hi,
    you seem a little confused with your previous posts:

    The kind of question you are posting shows that you have little experience and you have been thrown in a sort of "training on the job" which is a bit scary to my opinion.
    Other users have already posted their opinion. Oracle documentation, available online is a good source of information. I've learnt a lot reading it.
    But what is really important it try to work in a rational way:
    a) understand business , business requirement and data model.
    b) organize your job in a "safe" way. Version control is mandatory!! You cannot avoid it.
    c) Be clean and organized in your coding. Spaghetti coding doesn't lead you anywhere. And never miss documenting your code.
    d) Whenever you have a question constantly check Oracle documentations, Oracle forums, internet. Having web access is a great advantage of our days, you have all you need on your fingertips.
    If I can give you my humble opinion, learning is a slow path. You don't become expert in one day. It's a matter of learning and experiencing day by day.
    One last thing. Writing message like this:

  • Need explanation about Oracle documentation (DBMS_LOB.LOADCLOBFROMFILE)

    Hello World,
    I try to understand Oracle documentation about DBMS_LOB.LOADCLOBFROMFILE function.
    I am not shure the explanation is written in a very good english,
    but i can't understand a word !!!
    Is anybody could explain me in more simple sentences ??
    DBMS_LOB.LOADCLOBFROMFILE (
    dest_lob IN OUT NOCOPY BLOB,
    src_bfile IN BFILE,
    amount IN INTEGER,
    dest_offset IN OUT INTEGER,
    src_offset IN OUT INTEGER,
    src_csid IN NUMBER,
    lang_context IN OUT INTEGER,
    warning OUT INTEGER);
    Oracle documentation explanation :
    src_csid Character set id of the source (BFILE) file.
    lang_context (IN) Language context, such as shift status, for the current
    load. (OUT) The language context at the time when the
    current load stopped, and what the next load should be using if
    continuing loading from the same source. This information is
    returned to the user so that they can use it for the continuous
    load without losing or misinterpreting any source data. For the
    very first load or if do not care, simply use the default 0. The
    details of this language context is hidden from the user. One
    does not need to know what it is or what’s in it in order to
    make the call
    warning (OUT) Warning message. This indicates something abnormal
    happened during the loading. It may or may not be caused by the
    user’s mistake. The loading is completed as required, and it’s up to the
    user to check the warning message. Currently, the only possible
    warning is the inconvertible character. This happens when the
    character in the source cannot be properly converted to a character in
    destination, and the default replacement character (e.g., ’?’) is used in
    place. The message is defined as warn_inconvertable_char in
    DBMSLOB.

    I am not kidding. I posted the link but I did not check if it were the same source. Really I do not have time to realize it.
    I think you can get a fast answer in SQL & PL/SQL forum.
    Good Luck!

  • Can't Download PDF and ZIP Oracle Documentation

    Hi!
    I love you all at OTN. You are doing a great job,
    enlightening us about Oracle technologies. Well done.
    I experienced a problem while trying to download the
    Oracle documentation files in pdf format. All the
    download management software I tried to use kept
    reporting that the server 'profile.oracle.com' reports
    that the pdf files are text/html content type. And so
    all the downloads where aborted. Only Internet
    explorer can be used to download these pdf files and
    IE is very slow and you can't resume the download if
    the connection breaks.
    Please kindly help me and others who may be
    experiencing a similar problem.
    Thanks and stay blessed

  • Local search in the Oracle Documentation

    Dear Documentation Team,
    As we know, the complete Oracle Documentation can be downloaded in HTML format and used locally. Unfortunately, it is not possible to search it locally in the comfortable way like it is done in the Internet version. Since all possible products like HTTP server etc. are available along with the Database, it would be very nice, if the documentation could be searched locally in the same way. I imagine something like that
    1) put the complete documentation into the directory ….\[name]
    2) create index database for search …
    3) HTTP server must be running
    4) …
    5) use URL http://the_host:5620/documentation/ to access and search the documentation
    I think many people would appreciate this possibility.
    Thanks for your attention

    The 11g doc is still unable to provide us a local search.
    Since we can download the HTML doc, we are able to build a doc webserver, and it could be practical for intranet usage to provide to the dev/dba team a full features doc.

  • Where is the official Oracle documentation that describes Hot Backup?

    I have used the woefully inadequate Metalink search utilities and Google but the nearest thing I have found is a description on "Ask Tom".
    I am looking for the official Oracle documentation that describes what happens internally during a Hot Backup. There are a lot of web sites and blogs out there that describe it but I am looking for the description from Oracle themselves. The only things I have found in the Oracle documentation so far is how to start and stop Hot Backup but not what happens internally. Preferably 11gR2 if it makes any difference.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks mseberg. This is what I was looking for. I had read this manual before but apparently glossed over this paragraph:
    "When performing a user-managed online backup, you must place your datafiles into
    backup mode with the ALTER DATABASE or ALTER TABLESPACE statement with the
    BEGIN BACKUP clause. When a tablespace is in backup mode, the database writes the
    before image for an entire block to the redo stream before modifying a block. The
    database also records changes to the block in the online redo log. Backup mode also
    freezes the data file checkpoint until the file is removed from backup mode. Oracle
    Database performs this safeguard because it cannot guarantee that a third-party
    backup tool copies the file header before copying the data blocks."
    Hot backup is still quite useful and Rman doesn't cover all cases. What we are doing with it is using storage-based replication (Shadow Image) to another set of LUNS which we then mount on another server and backup using Rman. This removes the overhead of Rman on the Production Database server and extends our backup window to almost 24 hours.

  • Oracle Documentation Relating to 1Z0-051

    Hello,
    Just wanted to some input on which Oracle Documentation Books I should be using using in order to prepare for 1Z0-051. At the moment, I am using:
    Oracle Database Administrator's Guide 11g Release 2 (11.2)
    Oracle Database Concepts 11g Release 2 (11.2)
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks in advance,
    Howard

    I used "*SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide (Exam 1Z0-051)*".
    It's a complete exam preparation edited by McGraw Hill - Oracle Press.
    Authors: John Watson and Roopesh Ramklass.
    I thing it's a good book.

  • Tom Kyte -v- Oracle Documentation - Character Semantics for AL32UTF8 ?

    On a unicode database, what is best practice for varchar columns - character semantics or byte semantics ?
    Tom Kyte's new book Expert Oracle Database Architecture says "When using a multibyte character set such as UTF8, you would be well advised to use the CHAR modifier in the VARCHAR2/CHAR definition - that is, use VARCHAR2(80 CHAR), not VARCHAR2(80), since your intention is likely to define a column that can in fact store 80 characters of data." (p499). This I would agree with.
    Yet, when I read the 10gR2 documentation "Globalization Support Guide", it says "The BYTE and CHAR qualifiers shown in the VARCHAR2 definitions should be avoided when possible because they lead to mixed-semantics databases. Instead, set NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS in the initialization parameter file and define column datatypes to use the default semantics based on the value of NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS. Byte semantics is the default for the database character set."
    I'd much rather explicitly state that I'm using character semantics, than relying on some default setting. So who's right ? Tom Kyte, or the Oracle documentation ? Or are they saying different things ?
    If I use character semantics, is this going to come back and bite me later ?
    I'm using Oracle 10gR2, and the database character set is the default of AL32UTF8, using only VARCHAR columns - not NVARCHAR.
    Thanks,
    Andy Mackie

    I would say that both want to say the same thing in a different way.
    Whether you always specify CHAR modifier or define NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS to CHAR is the same ... until you decide to change NLS_LENTGH_SEMANTICS to BYTE but this change will only apply to new columns created after NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS parameter change and I wonder why you would to do it.
    You have to use character semantics and make a choice: if you don't need to change it, it should not bite you back.

  • Question related to Oracle documentation

    Hi,
    I've a small doubt. Is there any Oracle standard doc which discuss about standard RDBMS concepts like Normalization, codd rules etc.
    Cheers,
    Suri ;-)

    IMHO, examples are the best way to understand data modeling concepts.  I don't know that any of the Oracle documentation covers this area to any extent but I have found a few books that give examples with explanations.  These are older classic books but the theory has not changed.  The first two are good for OLTP design and the last one is good for data warehouses.  The OLTP books are CASE*Method Entity Relationship Modelling by Richard Barker and The Data Model Resource Book by Len Silverston.  Both give lots of examples with good explanations.  The third is The Data Warehouse Toolkit by Ralph Kimball.  Not everyone will agree with the logic because there is room for interpretation when it comes to design concepts.

  • Generic Comments on Oracle Documentation

    Hi,
    I am not a documentation expert. But I have been working on different Oracle technologies for 7+ years. I have some general comments/suggestions on Oracle Documentation:
    1) Sometimes the language is bit complicated and can be simplified to a great extent.
    e.g. "The combination of all of these SOA artifacts makes up the adaptable and extensible service-oriented reference architecture that Application Integration Architecture stands for."
    It could have been written in simpler language like
    "The combination of all of these SOA artifacts makes up the adaptable and extensible Application Integration Architecture."
    Another example is - "These are application-agnostic web services that are used by calling applications to interface with different applications. This helps the cross-application processes to be participating-application unaware.
    2) At some places, the documentation is vague and doesn't really provide specifics of the underlying component/concept.
    e.g. In "AIA Overview" document, there is following description for Error Resolution and Logging:
    "Oracle provides a unified error-handling and logging solution that allows the identification and resolution of issues across applications, across technologies such as BPEL or Enterprise Service Bus, and across integration patterns."
    But it doesn't provide specific details about the "solution".
    I have seen really nice Oracle Documentation as well. But I earnestly believe there is scope to improve some of the Oracle Documentation. It will greatly help Oracle customers to better understand Oracle Products/Technologies faster.
    Thank You!

    Thank you for your observations and recommendations. The examples in (1) are indeed verbose and confusing; and if the document in (2) does not provide enough information about the solution, that is a shortcoming.
    I did a very quick search but could not find the manuals in question. Are your examples from Oracle technical manuals or from marketing literature, such as data sheets or white papers? This is not to excuse any problems with marketing literature, but Oracle's technical documentation groups are generally not involved in writing those documents, and thus we don't control or edit their content.
    In any case, I recommend that if you find problems in a technical manual, please use the "User Comments" feature (at the bottom of HTML pages for Oracle manuals accessed in documentation libraries on OTN), so that the comment can be tied to a specific manual and be directed to the appropriate writer. (Or, include the manual's title or part number in a posting in this forum.) For comments on any other Oracle materials, see if the item includes any information about sending feedback.

  • Posting Links to Oracle Documentation

    Far too often I see a URL Link to a copy of the standard Oracle documentation hosted by some other site -- sometimes it is a University.
    It would be incorrect and inappropriate to provide a link to a non-Oracle site for standard Oracle documentation.
    Universities might be hosting a copy of the documentation but I would guess that this is primarily for their students although they do not prevent others from accessing the documentation.
    Remember that any non-Oracle site cannot necessarily be an "authentic" source of information on Oracle documentation. Furthermore, many of these links that are posted here on forums are pointing to Oracle database 9.2 or 10.1 documentation. At the minimum ensure that you point to 10.2 or, preferrably, 11.2 documentation.
    There is no issue with providing a link to a non-Oracle site when it is clear that the page provided is not intended to be read as standard Oracle documentation.
