Cpu_count is wrong

I moved my instance to a new DELL server. The upgrade is from a dell 2950 with 2 dual cores.
The new server is a R710 with a single quad core.
So my number of cores never change, it always was 4.
SQL> show parameter cpu;
NAME TYPE VALUE
cpu_count integer 8
Why is Oracle showing me 8?
Is there something i need to do on the o/s side?
note: a dell 710 can hold 2 quad cores, we only have 1 installed physically.

What full version of Oracle?
If 10gR2+ try the following query as sysdba
set echo off

/I have a different query for 9.2 If your hardware has a threaded cpu then Oracle can get the cpu count wrong.

  • OEM Maximun CPU line is wrong

    Hi all!
    I have a very curious problem, the MAXIMUN_CPU line in Oracle Enterprise Manager is wrong.
    In Performace tab, the MAXIMUN_CPU red line is "locked" in 1, but the database is set  CPU_COUNT=8 and MAXIMUN_THREAD_PER_CPU=2.
    We have performance problems and this issue is quite significative.
    Thanks all!

    Hi,
    You mean somthing shown in this Graph: Monitoring Real-Time Database Performance
    Here cpu usage is 100%.

  • CBO - Wrong Cardinality Estimate

    Hello,
    Version 10.2.0.3
    I am trying to understand the figures in the Explain Plan. I am not able to explain the cardinality of 70 on step 4.
    The query takes very long to execute (about 400 secs). I would expect HASH JOIN SEMI instead of NESTED LOOPS SEMI.
    I have tried to provide as much information as possible. I have just requested the 10053 trace, dont have it now.
    There is a primary key on ORDERS.ORDER_ID (NUMBER) column. However, we are forced to use to_char(order_id) to accomodate for COT_EXTERNAL_ID being VARCHAR2 field.

    This is where my doubt is. Is this got to do with 22 being a popular value ? Can someone explain this behaviour ?
    As a solution I am thinking of creating an index on to_char(order_id) - function based, hoping that the step 3 CDW.COT_EXTERNAL_ID = TO_CHAR(ORDER_ID) changes
    to access instead of filter. Let me know your thoughts on the index creation as well.
    Thanks,
    Rgds,

    Hello Jonathan,
    Apologies, I was wrong about optimizer_index_cost_adj value to be set to 100. I gather from DBA the value is set to currently set to 1.
    I have pasted the 10053 trace file for value 22. I was not able to figure out the "jsel=min(1, 6.1094e-04)" bit.

  • Macbook4,1 10.6.8 and firmware update - what went wrong?

    Macbook 4,1 2008 2.4Ghz (not unibody). I recently reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled 10.6 from the Retail DVD and all seemed to go well. The MB was working fine up to that point. I then set up the MB (network, date and time, etc.) and repaired permissions.
    I then checked Software Update and downloaded and installed the recommended updates to 10.6.8.
    Again, all seemed to go fine. System booted and I repaired Permissions again. I went to the Apple web site, a couple of other web sites, and Software Update found another update to install: Firmware. Though I don't remember what version.
    I clicked OK and it installed.
    Upon reboot, it seemed to install okay.
    But then I left the Macbook and it went into Sleep.
    I didn't come back to it again until the next day.
    When I pressed a key to wake it, I got what I now know is the screen that appears after you wake it from SAFE SLEEP. As per this Apple KB article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1757.
    And this is where the problems started.
    After the MB woke to the Safe Sleep screen, which shows the desktop a little "out of focus", the progress bars started filling in from left to right, BUT before they completed, the screen went BLACK.
    And it has had a problem with black screen ever since. I can boot the MB from internal or external HD or from DVD, and it seems to boot fine. Boot chime, Apple logo, spinning wheel, then at the point where it pauses, blue screen, then goes to desktop, instead the screen goes black.
    It finishes booting, but seems to go into Sleep.
    I can wake it by pressing a key, but the screen either comes on and goes black again after 10 seconds, or I get the Safe Sleep wake screen, and then it goes black after 10 seconds.
    And at boot or when waking the MB, the front LED flashes 5 times. There are no error beeps.
    I've tried changing RAM, but problems remain.
    So what's all this? Any ideas?
    The display doesn't seem dead, as it works to boot and wake. The MB works fine with external monitor.
    It's weird, but I can't think of anything apart from the Firmware update. The problems started right after installing it.
    Unfortunately, this model of Macbook doesn't have a Firmware Restoration image to download and burn to CD. It is the ONLY Mac at this point that doesn't have this!
    I called Apple support and even bought the 49 Euro Pay Per Incident service, which proved to be the same as throwing 49 Euro out the window. The only "technical" support they provided was to Reset the SMC, which you can find out about FOR FREE at the Apple website. And which I'd done anyway. I'd also reinstalled the MacOS. Don't want to beef too much, but sheesh, you've already got a Macbook that might need costly repairs, and they make you pay 49 Euro BEFORE they even ask you about the problem and what you've done to try to solve it. I'm tempted to say "ripoff". I mean, if all they can offer you is the advice to reset the SMC - which Apple offers for free at their website - then that's pretty poor service for 49 Euro, to say the least.
    Apart from the wasted 49 Euro, I'm pretty peeved about the Firmware update (or so it seems) wrecking a perfectly working 2008 Macbook. I don't know how to convince Apple of this, but I'm certainly going to try.

    Thanks for the reply.
    Re. the Displays setting, the Macbook display isn't recognized and mirroring isn't an available option.
    I've scoured the net and the idea of replacing the PRAM battery may be something to try. I read a post by a guy with a Macbook logic board screwed up by a Firmware update, which he solved by replacing the PRAM battery, as when you disconnect it you reset the logic board.
    Which capacitor?
    No luck so far with talking to Apple. I will try to get hold of someone a little more tech savvy and/or in a position of authority, as it seems that the Firmware is the culprit. Obviously a million other things could go wrong with a Macbook, but given the timing here it looks like the Firmware. Firmware updates can and occasionally do screw up a computer, as most manufacturers will warn you before you apply the update: PC makers, printer makers, etc. And they probably warn you that it's all your responsibility if anything goes wrong. But re. the Apple Firmware update:
    1) it came thru Software Update
    2) there was no warning
    3) to make things worse, there's no Firmware Restoration image that I can burn to a CD to reflash the logic board: this is the only Apple computer that doesn't have a Firmware Restoration option
    I'll try to get thru to a manager and convince him/her that the firmware may have been the cause.
    Do you think an authorized Apple tech might have access to some way to do a firmware restoration? Something not avaiable to mere mortals? Because if not, the only solution looks like a new logic board.

  • OEPE causes Eclipse Kepler to start with wrong workspace, overrides Eclipse's workspace configuration

    I'm a new OEPE user, and found that after installing it, Eclipse (Kepler) now starts up with the wrong workspace every time. I have to explicitly do File > Switch Workspace... to get Eclipse to restart with the correct workspace. Also, the workspace I want to use is the only one listed in the Workspaces preferences panel (Window > Preferences > General > Startup and Shutdown > Workspaces). So I can't figure out why Eclipse is using the wrong workspace, and why it's even finding this wrong one.
    I found that many other users of OEPE with Kepler are having this same problem:
    Eclipse Community Forums: Eclipse Platform » Kepler: On start up, I no longer get prompted for workspace locat…
    And this sounds curiously like this old problem reported right here on the OTN Community site:
    https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2191740
    Any suggestions for how to get around this? I assume this is a bug, but don't know the correct process for reporting OEPE bugs.

    Hi.
    I suspect that some action by the OEPE code somehow modifies the OSGi Cache so that it no longer asks you what workspace you'd like to use (and forces usage of the workspace in top user directory.)  I found that if you put in "-clean" in your eclipse.ini, then you get asked what workspace you'd like to use.  This flag clears out the OSGi cache (hence my theory that it is this cache that is messed up)
    That said, there are arguments for not doing this all the time.  See this discussion: java - How to run eclipse in clean mode? and what happens if we do so? - Stack Overflow
    Finally, I suspect you have another workspace on your system now.  Presuming you are on a PC, go to your user dir - I'd wager there is a "workspace" dir there now.  That is where OEPE wants to work.
    Good Luck!
    OEPE should be able to work with any workspace; it has in the past!  If a specific workspace is required with this release, that is a step backward in my opinion.  That said, if that is the direction of the product, so be it.  I find it hard to believe that is the direction of the product, however!

  • Flash 12.0.0.77 plugin installs to wrong folder

    In Vista x64, using either Firefox 28 or Firefox 24.4 ESR, the plugin installer (one downloaded from Adobe distribution) installs the 32 bit .dll file to \system32\macromedia\flash\ folder;
    installs the 64 bit .dll to:  \sysWOW64\macromedia\flash\  folder.  So, they're exacly reversed.
    I uninstalled it completely - went well.  Then removed 1 remaining file in one of the above paths, then reinstalled.  Did the same thing.
    Before I did all this - I was *very sporadically* seeing the FlashPlayerPlugin_12_0_0_77.exe file, running (kinda "sitting") in background, in task manager.  It never came to foreground w/ a UI, asking for anything.  Couldn't figure out what it was, until started looking in the installation folders.
    That's what lead to discovery the files were in wrong folders.
    Anyone heard of this?
    BTW, "Nayana" of Adobe Support chat, is a few bricks shy of a load.  Or I am.  I couldn't create an acct for forums.  She kept saying, you don't need an acct - "just post your question.  Other people will answer it."

    EDIT:  Seems there's no error in Flash installing to wrong folders, only error in my brain.  Why didn't someone stop me from embarrassing myself?
    System32 (in a 64 bit OS / architecture) is for 64 bit drivers, files; SysWOW64 is for 32 bit apps running in 64 bit OS.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WoW64
    WoW64 (Windows 32-bit on Windows 64-bit) is a subsystem of the Windows operating system capable of running 32-bit applications and is included on all 64-bit versions of Windows
    Also, http://www.samlogic.net/articles/32-64-bit-windows-folder-x86-syswow64.htm (section on SysWoW64)
    End Edit.
    Thanks for info on attaching images.  A bit different than most forums.  There's no "preview post" before submitting?
    Screenshots of the 2 flash folder contents.
    NOTE:  I attached full FlashInstall.log earlier.  I opened the 1.25 MB (text) file in an editor - copied contents to clipboard > paste to forum reply screen.  Immediately locked up Firefox like a big dog.  Couldn't perform any functions in Fx - not even reload or close browser.  At same time, Fx memory use was continually climbing; to nearly 2 GB when I killed it.  Won't make that mistake again.
    Been many yrs since Fx locked up, doing anything.  That aside, Adobe is definitely "different" than most forums.  Almost like a person w/ no $ to use one of the many forum softwares available.

  • Importing to AE files - goes to wrong folder

    I looked in the AE FAQ, didn't see the answer to my question, so here goes.
    I am using AE with editing video, meaning I only use AE for some basic things. This is one of those times where my lack of knowledge is driving me mad.
    When I went to import a clip, AE directs me to a folder from an old project. This happened once before, and I fixed it, but can't remember what I did. Any help would be appreciated, as I hate navigating around to a new folder all the time. I am obviously doing something wrong with the preference, workflow, or both.
    Cheers,
    Douglas

    You're doing nothing wrong. AE will remember your new folder after you have quit and re-launched it. Ages old design flaw in the way it handles this...

  • IPhone Deletes Exchange Emails To Wrong Folder

    Hello all!
    I have a Microsoft Exchange mail account setup on my iPhone 4 (iOS 6.1) which works wonderfully, short of one aspect:  Emails deleted from my phone do not go to the accounts standard 'Trash' folder, but to a different 'Deleted' folder.  I can see no way to change this setting.  Any ideas?

    Thanks Templeton.  This is the only definitive answer I've found anywhere.  Turns out my iPhone was correct and my other email clients are sending to the wrong folder!

  • TS3899 Mail going to wrong folder

    I have contact emails in my phone that are sending to my junk mail folder instead of my inbox.  One contact is even marked as VIP.  Can you help with this?

    Jeff:
    I have gotten hostname as you suggested, and thus far seen one Helo failure prior to that, so thanks for the tip.
    The queue is running like 150k to 170k, I've got content filter off right in order to isolate problems.
    This wrong account issue is causing some severe creditability issues with this server as you can imagine.
    Thanks for the help.

  • Lightroom imports photos to wrong folder

    I've been importing lots of photos from my hard drive into lightroom and been moving/renaming them in the process. I only got lightroom a few weeks ago.
    This has worked fine but i've recently imported a few hundred photos off my iphone and doing the same thing - move and rename. The trouble is, these photos keep going into the 2009 folder, instead of the 2012 or 2013 folders that they should be. When i look at the photos, they have the correct name, and the capture date seems to be correct, its just lightroom keeps wanting to put them in the wrong folder by year. Does anyone understand why this might be happening?
    naturally I want all my photos sorted into the right date folders as this is the way ive decided to organise my photos...

    hmm so still not making sense. it keeps wanting to import my photos into the wrong destination. have removed all the photo from lightroom. how do i change it so it automatically puts the photos into the corresponding year/month they were taken..
    I understand its something in the import settings/destination but cant seem to change this. not sure what parts of the import box your wanting to see Dj.
    the structure now is my pictures/2009/21-7-09 then its creating new year folders and sorting them within this 21-7-9 folder..
    can't see to change this?

  • Links default to wrong folder

    Why is it when I go to relink a placed image in the Links pallette it always directs me to the wrong folder (not the one the image lives in but elsewhere). I believe that it is taken me to the last folder I navigated to. thoughts?

    You now have a prefernce for where relink goes, the last folder you used to link, or the folder where the original link resides. It's in the prefs.

  • Photo drags to wrong folder

    why does photo drag to wrong folder?

    You question makes no sense - iPhoto does not "drag" photos anywhere - it works on a SQL database and controls the photo locations correctly - you never access them direcly but always use the provided tools to access the photos - click here for a discussion on the many correct and safe ways to access your iPhoto library photos.

  • Saves to wrong folder
