Database conversion on very lg tables when extending lenght of InfoObject

Hello Gurus,
We need to extend the lenght of an InfoObject which is contained in a number of DSOs. These DSOs are very large (altogether about 1billion records). When we transport the change to the InfoObject SAP forces us to run a database conversion (in SE14) on all the underlying tables of the DSOs (Change Log and Active Tables) which contain the InfoObject we're changing. However, this is taking a very long time as SAP is doing a large number of SQL SELECT statements etc on the data in these tablese. However, the InfoObject doesn't have an ALPHA conversion on it and all we want is to change the DDIC definition - we do not want SAP to start copying data, renaming tables, selecting data etc. Has anyone else come across this and does anyone know if there's a way to do this without having to do the database conversion in this way - i.e. where it doesn't access the data.....?
Thanks in advance,
Joachim

This is going to seem a plum of a question in this forum, but i've had to register to gain access relating to the problem i have... Well, not exactly a problem but an unneccessary addition !
I had to format my hard drive and had to install XP Pro Service pack 1A instead of the original service pack 1. Java plugin has been removed from the service pack, and because i needed to access web pages containing java code, i downloaded the java plugin... I thought !
I now have a program called Java web start, which opens with options for notepad, Draw 4, Military Game and swingset 2...
I want to un-install the program, and install only the plug in - so could someone plant me a Hyperlink to somewhere i can download ONLY the plug-in, and not the actual program...
I've looked at some of the demo's... but haven't even grasped the concept of what the program is actually for... so there isn't much chance of me using it for the purpose it was intended, because as i've said, i haven't got a clue what it's all about !

Moving the 80 Million records from Conversion database to System Test database (Just for one transaction table) taking too long.

Hello Friends,
The background is I am working as conversion manager and we move the data from oracle to SQL Server using SSMA and then we will apply the conversion logic and then move the data to system test ,UAT and Production.
Scenario:
Moving the 80 Million records from Conversion database to System Test database (Just for one transaction table) taking too long. Both the databases are in the same server.
Questions are…
What is best option?
IF we use the SSIS it’s very slow and taking 17 hours (some time it use to stuck and won’t allow us to do any process).
I am using my own script (Stored procedure) and it’s taking only 1 hour 40 Min. I would like know is there any better process to speed up and why the SSIS is taking too long.
When we move the data using SSIS do they commit inside after particular count? (or) is the Microsoft is committing all the records together after writing into Transaction Log
Thanks

How to indent second line in a very long heading when creating a table of contents?

I need to make a table of contents.
Some of the chapter headings are very long and fill more than a single line.
When I create my table of contents, I want the second lines to be 'pushed in' in the table.
Like this
1 chaper one xxxxxxxxxxx
2 Chapter two xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
3 Chapter three x xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx
4 Charpter four xxxxx xxxxx
5 Chapter five xxxxxxxxxx xxx xxxxx xx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxx xxxx xxxxx
I thought I had solved it by having the actual chapter headings indented like this, but the table of contents overlooks this/overrules this.

See also my reply to the duplicate thread:

HT4526 I have difficulty in hearing conversation around the table when many are speaking. Can I put my Iphone 4 3G in the centre of the table and tune it to my hearing aid to join in the converstion?

I have difficulty in hearing conversation around the table when many are speaking. Can I put my Iphone 4 3G in the centre of the table and tune it to my hearing aid to join in the converstion?

There are hearing aids that support a BlueTooth connection to a phone. However, to make that work, you'd need to put someone elses phone in the middle of the table, then call it from your phone which you had connected to your aids using BT. I can't imagine that the quality of a call over speaker phone would really be good enough to help, though.
Best of luck.

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.

Can't update master table when creating a materialized view log.

Hi all,
I am facing a very strange issue when trying to update a table on which I have created a materialized view log (to enable downstream fast refresh of MV's). The database I am working on is 10.2.0.4. Here is my issue:
1. I can successfully update (via merge) a dimension table, call it TABLEA, with 100k updates. However when I create a materialized view log on TABLEA the merge statement hangs (I killed the query after leaving it to run for 8 hrs!). TABLEA has 11m records and has a number of indexes (bitmaps and btree) and constraints on it.
2. I then create a copy of TABLEA, call it TABLEB and re-created all the indexes and constraints that exist on TABLEA. I created a materialzied view log on TABLEB and ran the same update....the merge completed in under 5min!
The only difference between TABLEA and TABLEB is that the dimension TABLEA is referenced by a number of FACT tables (by FKs on the FACTS) however this surely should not cause a problem. I don't understand why the merge on TABLEA is not completing...even though it works fine on its copy TABLEB? I have tried rebuilding the indexes on TABLEA but this did not work.
Any help or ideas on this would be most appreciated.
Kind Regards

Thats what I thought, the MVL will only read data that has changed since it was created and wont have the option to load in all the data as though it was made before the table was created.
From what I have read, the MVL is quicker than a Trigger and I have some free code that prooved to work from a MVL using it as a reference to know what records to update. There is not that much to a MVL, a record ID and type of update, New, Update or Delete.
I think what I will have to do is work on a the same principle for the MVL but use a Trigger as this way we can do a full reload if required at any point.
Many thanks for your help.

Very Big Table (36 Indexes, 1000000 Records)

Hi
I have a very big table (76 columns, 1000000 records), these 76 columns include 36 foreign key columns , each FK has an index on the table, and only one of these FK columns has a value at the same time while all other FK have NULL value. All these FK columns are of type NUMBER(20,0).
I am facing performance problem which I want to resolve taking in consideration that this table is used with DML (Insert,Update,Delete) along with Query (Select) operations, all these operations and queries are done daily. I want to improve this table performance , and I am facing these scenarios:
1- Replace all these 36 FK columns with 2 columns (ID, TABLE_NAME) (ID for master table ID value, and TABLE_NAME for master table name) and create only one index on these 2 columns.
2- partition the table using its YEAR column, keep all FK columns but drop all indexes on these columns.
3- partition the table using its YEAR column, and drop all FK columns, create (ID,TABLE_NAME) columns, and create index on (TABLE_NAME,YEAR) columns.
Which way has more efficiency?
Do I have to take "master-detail" relations in mind when building Forms on this table?
Are there any other suggestions?
I am using Oracle 8.1.7 database.
Please Help.

Hi everybody
I would like to thank you for your cooperation and I will try to answer your questions, but please note that I am a developer in the first place and I am new to oracle database administration, so please forgive me if I did any mistakes.
Q: Have you gathered statistics on the tables in your database?
A: No I did not. And if I must do it, must I do it for all database tables or only for this big table?
Q:Actually tracing the session with 10046 level 8 will give some clear idea on where your query is waiting.
A: Actually I do not know what you mean by "10046 level 8".
Q: what OS and what kind of server (hardware) are you using
A: I am using Windows2000 Server operating system, my server has 2 Intel XEON 500MHz + 2.5GB RAM + 4 * 36GB Hard Disks(on RAID 5 controller).
Q: how many concurrent user do you have an how many transactions per hour
A: I have 40 concurrent users, and an average 100 transaction per hour, but the peak can goes to 1000 transaction per hour.
Q: How fast should your queries be executed
A: I want the queries be executed in about 10 to 15 seconds, or else every body here will complain. Please note that because of this table is highly used, there is a very good chance to 2 or more transaction to exist at the same time, one of them perform query, and the other perform DML operation. Some of these queries are used in reports, and it can be long query(ex. retrieve the summary of 50000 records).
Q:please show use the explain plan of these queries
A: If I understand your question, you ask me to show you the explain plan of those queries, well, first, I do not know how , an second, I think it is a big question because I can not collect all kind of queries that have been written on this table (some of them exist in server packages, and the others performed by Forms or Reports).

Trying to update one table from a second table when data is different

Hello;
I have a the same table in two databases. The database are connected with a DB Link. I am trying to update one of the tables based on the data in the second table when the EMP_ID matches but the LAST_NAME does not match.
The table(s) look like:
Table Name:EMP
EMP_ID
LAST_NAME
FIRST_NAME
MIDDLE_INITIAL
My SQL is:
update EMP TARGET
    set (TARGET.LAST_NAME, TARGET.FIRST_NAME,TARGET.MIDDLE_INITIAL) = (
        select SOURCE.LAST_NAME, SOURCE.FIRST_NAME, SOURCE.MIDDLE_INITIAL
        from EMP@OTHER_DB SOURCE where
        TARGET.PHYSICIAN_ID = SOURCE.PHYSICIAN_ID
        and TARGET.LAST_NAME <> SOURCE.LAST_NAME); This returns an update count of all the rows not the few that I want.
Any help would be great!

Any help would be great!There's no WHERE clause in that UPDATE statement, so every row of the target table will be modified.
if you only want to modify the rows that have a match in the source table, then add a WHERE clause (perhaps "WHERE EXISTS (...) with a sub-query very miuch like the one you already have), or use MERGE instead of UPDATE.
If you'd like help, post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements to re-create the tables as they exist before the UPDATE, and also post the contents of the changed table after the UPDATE.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using.
Perhaps you want something like this:
{code}
MERGE INTO     emp     target
USING     (
     SELECT     o.emp_id
          ,     o.last_name
          ,      o.last_name
          ,      o.middle_initial
          FROM     emp@other_db     o
          JOIN     emp          t ON     o.emp_id     = t.emp_id
                         AND     o.last_name     != t.last_name
     )          source
ON     (target.emp_id     = source.emp_id
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE
SET     target.last_name     = source.last_name
,     target.first_name     = source.first_name
,     target.middle_initial     = source.middle_initial
{code}
assuming emp is unique, at least in other_db.
This will work in Oracle 10 (and up). In Oracle 9, MERGE always requires a WHEN MATCHED clause, so add one if you must. it doesn't matter what it does; the USING subquery will only return matches.

How to update the table when change list item in classic report

hi ,
i worked with apex 4.2 and i create normal classic report with one select list(named loved)Column ,now i want to update table when user change the list with new value ,i can't create dynamic action to do this,i create check box with primary key and loop for check item to update the table but i can't get the value of list item. and for more speed the user want to do this when change the list value.
my question
1- how to do this by javascript and get the value from list item and update the table with new value
2- is i must use API to create list item so i can get the value of item in report or what.
Thanks
Ahmed

I coded the following to give you direction:
1. In the "Element Attributes" section of the DEPTNO column, I call a javascript function as:
onchange = "javascript:updateTable(this);"2. I wrote a simple javascript function that shows an alert when the user changes the select list as:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function updateTable(pThis)
var vRow = pThis.id.substr(pThis.id.indexOf('_')+1);
alert('Row# - '+ vRow + ' has the value - ' + pThis.value);
</script>Now, you can call a AJAX on-demand process inside the javascript function to update the database value.

What locks are required on a table when Oracle is processing an UPDATE

What locks are required on a table when Oracle is processing an
UPDATE statement?

Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you post provide your 4 digit Oracle version.
>
What locks are required on a table when Oracle is processing an
UPDATE statement?
>
Here is a relevant quote from the 'Lock Modes' section of the doc that Ed Stevens provided
>
Assume that a transaction uses a SELECT ... FOR UPDATE statement to select a single table row. The transaction acquires an exclusive row lock and a row share table lock. The row lock allows other sessions to modify any rows other than the locked row, while the table lock prevents sessions from altering the structure of the table. Thus, the database permits as many statements as possible to execute.
>
The above describes the locks when you, the user, tells Oracle to lock the row.
