Dba role - general question

Should the role of the dba include installing the oracle
database software on the server?
There is a suggestion here that the server people should install the oracle software and the dba should work only within the existing database.

It can depend on the security structure within the company that you work for. For example, in Windows platforms you should be installing Oracle as "administrator" and in many companies you as a DBA won't be having the admintistrator password. Similarly in a Unix environment an "oracle" user needs to be created by "root" to do the software installation, and also during Oracle software installation there will be the root.sh script which must be run by root. Again the DBA might not have the root password.
So although the DBA should know much more about how to install and configure Oracle the DBA will need administrator or root access, and if not will need close cooperation with the system admin. It really depends on the security policies of your company.

  • General Question Index

    Hi,
    I've a question on index.
    Say in a big sql query, which has join of two tables.
    SELECT A.COL1,A.COL2,B.COL4
    FROM A INNER JOIN B
    ON A.COL1 = B.COL1
    AAND A.COL2 = B.COL2
    General question , if I want to tune this do I need to create index on B.COL4?
    what I am trying to understand is, for tuning index is needed on columns in the WHERE condition or Columns from the select list or both.
    I understand it is all relative, we need to see the plan etc.. but my question is in general.
    Thanks
    Neil

    Neil
    Does not the query have a WHERE clause? If it does, look at the columns that participate in WHERE clause + COVER (include clause all column you have in SELECT).. Also col1+col2 should have indexes.

  • General question on SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 10g

    Hello all,
    I just have a general question on migration from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 10g using SQL Developer.
    How does it migrate Users with proper privileges from SQL Server to Oracle? Follow the interface steps? Or should the users be created on destination Oracle side?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    It depends which type of migration you are making.
    For a 'Standard' migration when you migrate data a 'create user' statement is created as part of the migration and you will see this in the generated code.
    If you are using the 'Quick' migration option then you need to create the Oracle user or use an existing user to receive the data.
    Your best option is to review the documentation available from -
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html
    or directly from -
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12151_01/index.htm
    and then get back with specific questions if this does not give you the information you need.
    Review the chapter -
    2. Migrating Third-Party Databases
    in -

  • How does Azure Compute Emulator (or the Azure one) determine if a role is web project or something else ("The Web Role in question doesn't seem to be a web application type project")?

    I'm not sure if this is F# specific or something else, but what could cause the following error message when trying to debug locally an Azure cloud service:
    The Web Role in question doesn't seem to be a web application type project.
    I added an empty F# web api Project to a solution (which adds Global.asax etc., I added an OWIN startup class Startup etc.) and then from an existing
    cloud service project I picked Roles and
    chose Add
    -> Web Role Project in solution, which finds the F# web project (its project type guids are 349C5851-65DF-11DA-9384-00065B846F21 and F2A71F9B-5D33-465A-A702-920D77279786),
    of which the first one seem to be exactly the GUID that defines a web application type.
    However, when I try to start the cloud project locally, I get the aforementioned error message. I have a C# Web Role project that will start when I remove the F# project. I also have F# worker
    role projects that start with the C# web role project if I remove this F# web role project. If I set the F# web project as a startup project,
    it starts and runs as one would expect, normally.
    Now, it makes me wonder if this is something with F# or could this error message appears in C# too, but I didn't find anything on Google. What kind of checks are there when starting the emulator and which one needs
    failing to prompt the aforementioned message? Can anyone shed light into this?
    Sudet ulvovat -- karavaani kulkee

    Sudet,
    Yeah you are right, the GUID mentioned seems to be correct and the first one i.e. {349C5851-65DF-11DA-9384-00065B846F21} means the web application project which compute emulator uses to determine while spawning up role instances.
    You might want to compare the csproj of your C# and F# web projects which might give some pointers.
    Are you able to run your F# web project locally in IIS? If yes then you will definitely be able to run it on azure so I will recommend to test it in IIS Express first.
    Here are some other tips which you can refer or see If you are yet to do those settings
    1. Turn on the IIS Express - You can do it by navigating to project properties
    2. Install Dependent ASP.NET NuGets / Web Api dependencies (If there are any missing), Reference System.Web assembly
    Also I will suggest to refer this nice article about how to create a F# web Api project
    http://blog.ploeh.dk/2013/08/23/how-to-create-a-pure-f-aspnet-web-api-project/
    Hope this helps you.

  • Report Builder Question - OA AR Aging - and a general question

    I'm sure this is the wrong forum for this question, but I thought there might be someone here who might be using Oracle Applications and Report Builder who'd be kind enough to help me out.
    We've recently implemented Oracle Applications 11.5.10 and I have to use report builder to change the Accounts Receiveable Aging (7 bucket) to a 5 bucket report. I've already made some changes to the seeded "ARXAGMW.rdf" report, but I'm not a big Oracle Reports guy. I've stumbled through making some changes in various other reports. But this one is just plain nasty! :)
    I was thinking that I could simply add buckets 6 & 7 to bucket 5, then just hide or delete the 6 & 7 buckets. But I'm not sure where to even start. Any help with this would GUARANTEE a Christmas or other holiday card this year! :)
    I really want to keep this simple as possible, so any help would be very....helpful. :)
    Oh, my general question is: Are there any resouces/books for Oracle Reports (Report Builder)? I feel so lost trying to modify existing reports, let alone creating new ones.
    Thanks again!
    Steve

    Hi Steve,
    I am working on the 7-bucket aging report and i want to add a new field in data model.
    As the query is build dynamically, i have modified the function BUILD_CUSTOMER_SELECT to meet my requirements.
    But the problem is that in the data model, the field is not present in my Grouping. and if I try to add the field in the Data Model query (Q_ Customer) section,
    i get the following error: ORA-01789: query block has incorrect number of result columns.
    The query is as shown below:

  • General question about iTunes Match and multiple libraries

    Hello to everyone,
    I have a general question about the iTunes Match service, which is available since yesterday in my country (Italy). Currently my library situation is the following:
    Computer A (desktop, Windows 7): "big" iTunes library (about 20 GB), at the moment not associated with my Apple ID
    Computer B (MacBook Air 2011): "small" iTunes library (about 5 GB), associated with my Apple ID
    At the moment, both my iOS devices (iPhone 4 and iPad 2) are synchronized with the smaller library on the MacBook Air.
    Question is as follows: should I subscribe to iTunes Match, would it be possible to upload the "big" library (provided I associate it with my Apple ID) to iCloud while keeping my devices synchronized with the "small" one?
    Ideally, at the end of the day, the situation should be the following: both iOS devices with music from the small library + possibility of downloading songs from iCloud (coming from the big one). Is this possible?
    Maybe the question sounds stupid, but I want to be sure about this before paying for the service.
    Thanks a lot.

    Yes, you could also associate your larger library with iTunes match if you associated your Apple ID with it. However any purchases in the library made from another Apple ID will not be matched with iTunes much.
    If both libraries are part of iTunes match, then all your devices will see all of the content from both libraries, which content you choose to have on those devices and which you have accessible via iTunes match is entirely up to you.

  • Where to direct a general questions about foreign films subtitles?

    I recently purchased a foreign film "Break Ke Badd" from the iTunes store. Although, it didn't specify that it had English subtitles, I assumed it did. After the full download, I tried to watch it and there weren't any English subs. I contacted iTunes and they more than happy to refund the money back to my account. Now after a few weeks, the iTunes store DOES list Eng subs for this film. I don't want to purchase it again and have to contact iTunes for another refund...Therefore my question is, is there a general question contact one could use to find an answer to my question. Basically, to verify that this movie, indeed has English subs before I re-purchase. 
    Any info is appreciated!

    Yes I know as the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/ Questions] section is more for desktop Firefox support and the place I linked to is for "Firefox OS" support in English where some who are involved with it do post in it occasionally.
    I would have moved that [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/962783 thread] to the "Firefox OS" English section, however I cannot as the [https://support.mozilla.org//questions/ Questions] and [https://support.mozilla.org/forums Contributor Forums] are not the same.

  • Camileo charging problem (solved) and a general question!

    Hi all!
    First of all, I was going to ask for help as to why the Camileo S10 was not charging (the orange light wasn't flashing), and I'd seen a few people with similar problems.
    The solution?
    Give the contacts on the battery a clean.
    The insulation sticker that comes on it must leave some kind of residue on it, and it's enough to prevent charging. Now it's flashing away happily :]
    So my general question was, is it possible/advisable to use the camera on the mains?
    Rather than constantly draining and charging the battery during long shoots, I'd prefer to just leave it plugged in!
    Thanks very much in advance!
    Paul

    Hi
    I think the battery handling is always the same no matter what product it is
    From time to time the battery should be recalibrated.
    This means that the battery should be discharged fully and after then you should charge it again until the battery would reach 100%
    I do this with all my batteries; mobile phone battery, digi cam battery and notebook battery.

  • Update on Bioinformatics WIKI, scripting challenges, and a general question

    I am waiting for my site to go on-line at Oak Ridge National Labs (USA, Tennessee).  Should be another week or so, maybe less.
    When that happens, you will see a veritable explosion of scripting challenges in my wiki (Emerging Technologies->Bioinformatics.)
    One general question in preparation for these challenges.
    There are a number of standard  bioinformatic programs that can be run interactively via the web at various sites, e.g. "BLAST" and "STRIDE". 
    Although these can also be run locally, this requires that you download large databases and keep them updated.
    So here's my question to the scripting experts:
    Are scripting languages powerful enough to submit queries to web pages and then use regex's to parse the html that is returned?
    Bill Mann has used PERL to do some of the required regex parsing, but there is a lot left to do, and, his stuff only works when a perl program is invoking a bioinformatic program locally, not interactively.
    If so, we all can do some beautiful stuff together , if anyone is interested ...

    ...my wiki on...
    There is by it's very nature no such thing as MY WIKI, except you run your own wiki project in an exclusive mode. Which were...well ... unusual.
    Are scripting languages powerful enough to submit queries to web pages and then use regex's to parse the html that is returned?
    Yes.

  • Delete scriptcode - General question: capacity limit of Acrobat Windows

    Hello everybody,
    I've got a general question to the capacity limit of Acrobat Windows.
    I often make forms with
    for instance the current one has 18 pages. Eleven pages have fields on it. (But some pages have only one field on it) The fields of one page to another are sometimes linked with script code. The file needs nearly 1 MB.
    Usual I write the script code by a double-click on the field/ calculate/ custom calculation script. (Is this the right way?) Today it happens again that a field with script code lost the script code.
    That's why I wonder whether there is a capacity limit of Acrobat Windows or whether I make mistakes. (This is only one instance of several where the form has his own life.)
    Thanks in advance for helping me!
