DBLINK ISSUE

Hi
Please advise on the following scnerio regarding the performance when handle with millions of records
1.Using dblink to select data from database and compare against another table
2.createb temporary table,insert data into temporary table using dblink and compare against another table
Thanks and Regards,
MR

Like every other problem I don't think we can make a generic statement saying A performs better than B or vice-versa. It depends on many factors. Well to start with it would be ideal if you could post atleast a draft version of what you are trying to do and preferably an explain plan. Then hopefully you will be able to get some suitable answers rather making a wild guess.

  • Htmldb 1.6 synonym / DbLink issue

    Hi,
    1. I've tested the following issue in 3 version 1.5 , 1.5.1 , 1.6 and it seems issue is yet not solved.
    2. When you create a publich synonym for a remote table or even use the dblink directly , you can't based anythy form / report etc only using a free query method.
    3. Is there any option to create this not using manual selects / handling ...
    Thanks
    Etay G.

    To create the views:
    SELECT 'CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW '||Lower(object_name)||' AS SELECT * FROM '||Lower(object_name)||'@database_link;' FROM user_objects@database_link
    WHERE object_Type IN ('TABLE','VIEW');
    Just replace 'database_link' with your database link.
    Sequence number generators are tricky because you cannot create a view to select the nextval of a sequence number generator in another database over a database link. You have to just append the database link to the sequence reference or create a view which calls a function in the remote database which in turn returns the nextval of the sequence.

  • DBlink issue from 9i to 11g

    I created Public DB Link from 9.2.0.8 to 11g database. And getting following error:
    ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
    ORA-02063: preceding line from TEST11
    I tested sqlplus connection and it works fine.
    Any suggestion?

    Right. Because Oracle always stores unquoted identifiers (in this case the password) in upper case. In the past, it didn't matter because the destination database didn't care about the password's case. Now that the destination database does care about the case of the password (assuming a default 11g install), you can no longer get away with using case-insensitive passwords in your database link definitions. If you create database links to non-Oracle databases (where passwords are generally case sensitive), you've always had to specify the password in double-quotes.
    This is an expected outgrowth of the move to enhance security in 11g by making passwords case sensitive.

  • Error while executing procedure in TOAD which contains parameter and dblink

    Hi all,
    I am getting error while executing the following code in TOAD and APEX.
    It contains parameter( start_date and end_date) and dblink(@TO_FUT).
    When I hardcode the parameter values, It works fine.
    When I dont give hardcoded values in the procedure, the error comes.
    When I comment the lines whereever parameter comes, still the error comes.
    I am not sure whether it is parameter issue or dblink issue or some other issue
    Is anybody having any clue about this error?
    Your help is very much appreciated.

    /When posting code if you put {noformat}{noformat} (with the curly brackets and in lower case) above and below it you can preserve formatting.
    To your original question...
    Is the link name supposed to be variable?
    What do you mean by 'hard coding' the values, do you mean in the procedure itself so you'd actually PROC_ENR_ACC();?
    What happens when you run this?DECLARE
    start_date DATE;
    end_date DATE;
    BEGIN
    start_date := '01-JAN-2009';
    end_date := '01-FEB-2009';
    PROC_ENR_ACC(start_date, end_date);
    END;
    I need to know exactly how to recreate your error...

  • Dblink poor performance with varchar(4000) after upgrade 11g

    Hi
    Since a long time we connected from a 10g database via dblink to another 10g database to copy a simple table with four columns. Tablesize at about 500MB
    column1 (varchar(100))
    column2/3/4 (varchar(4000)).
    After the upgrade of the source database to 11g the dblink performance is poor with the big varchar columns. If I copy (select column1 from ) only column1 then I get the data within minutes. If I want to copy the whole table (select column1, column2, column3, column4 from...) then the performance is poor. It didn't finish within days.
    Does anyone know about dblink issues with 11g and big varchar columns?
    Thank you very much

    Use DBlink to pull data from table(s) using IMPDP:
    #1 Create DBlink in the Target database
    create database link sourceDB1_DBLINK connect to system identified by password10 using 'SourceDB1';
    [update tnsnames.ora appropriately]
    #2
    select DIRECTORY_PATH from dba_directories where DIRECTORY_NAME=’DATA_PUMP_DIR’;
    create DATA_PUMP_DIR directory if not exists
    #3
    impdp system/pwdxxx SCHEMAS=SCOTT NETWORK_LINK=ORCL10R2 JOB_NAME=scott_import LOGFILE=data_pump_dir:network_imp_scott.log
    That's all

  • Query to compare 2 different tables from 2 different database

    Is it possible to write a SQL query to compare 2 Tables from 2 different Oracle Database. Also I need a query to do the same when the database is same.
    Thanks in advance

    OK, well "compare" can mean one of two things: Compare structure or compare contents. Here is a quick script to compare column structures of two tables on one database:
    (select COLUMN_NAME,
    DATA_TYPE,
    DATA_LENGTH,
    DATA_PRECISION,
    DATA_SCALE,
    NULLABLE
    from dba_Tab_columns
    where owner=:OWNR1
    and table_name = :tablename
    minus
    select COLUMN_NAME,
    DATA_TYPE,
    DATA_LENGTH,
    DATA_PRECISION,
    DATA_SCALE,
    NULLABLE
    from dba_Tab_columns
    where owner=:ownr2
    and table_name = :tablename)
    union all
    (select COLUMN_NAME,
    DATA_TYPE,
    DATA_LENGTH,
    DATA_PRECISION,
    DATA_SCALE,
    NULLABLE
    from dba_Tab_columns
    where owner=:ownr2

    If this query returns any rows, then these indicate that there are structural differences between the tables. We do a minus in both directions to ensure that an additional column in either schema will be returned in the query.
    If you are going across dblinks to remote tables then you have to amend the "dba_tab_columns" to "sys.dba_tab_columns@yourdblink"
    If you also want to compare indexes, triggers, etc then do the same sort of thing for the associated dba_ views for those objects.
    And if you want to compare table contents, then often the fastest way is also to check minuses in both directions, if the tables are not too big:
    e.g.
    (select * from schema1.table@dblink1
    minus
    select * from schema2.table@dblink2)
    union all
    (select * from schema2.table@dblink2
    minus
    select * from schema1.table@dblink1)
    local tables, of course, simply omit the "@dblink" issues.
    There are tools to help in such things. TOAD, for example, has a pretty good schema comparison tool, and there are plenty of other options out there. But if you need to script this yourself then the logic I've shown is a good starting point.

  • Datapump exp with network_link generated crashed dump file

    Hi Experts,
    I am using oracle 10.2.0.4 DB at 32 bit window. I try to exp full source db in target db by data pump with network_link.
    But I got a dump file as a crashed dump type under window explorer.
    syntax as expdp system/test@targetDB FULL=y DIRECTORY=dataload NETWORK_LINK=sale DUMPFILE=salefull091115.dmp LOGFILE=salefulllog091115.log

  • Synonym required to query custom tables from Oracle Apps database

    When creating an Answers report that queries from a table owned by a custom schema (not APPS), I cannot query the table and get error. Once I add a Synonym for APPS on this table, then OBIEE works normally.
    Since OBIEE is logging in as the APPS user, are Synonyms required for all non-APPS tables/views or is there another feature of the Administrator where it can store the table alias (our typical owner of custom tables is XXFI)?

    OK, well "compare" can mean one of two things: Compare structure or compare contents. Here is a quick script to compare column structures of two tables on one database:
    (select COLUMN_NAME,
    DATA_TYPE,
    DATA_LENGTH,
    DATA_PRECISION,
    DATA_SCALE,
    NULLABLE
    from dba_Tab_columns
    where owner=:OWNR1
    and table_name = :tablename
    minus
    select COLUMN_NAME,
    DATA_TYPE,
    DATA_LENGTH,
    DATA_PRECISION,
    DATA_SCALE,
    NULLABLE
    from dba_Tab_columns
    where owner=:ownr2
    and table_name = :tablename)
    union all
    (select COLUMN_NAME,
    DATA_TYPE,
    DATA_LENGTH,
    DATA_PRECISION,
    DATA_SCALE,
    NULLABLE
    from dba_Tab_columns
    where owner=:ownr2
    and table_name = :tablename
    minus
    select COLUMN_NAME,
    DATA_TYPE,
    DATA_LENGTH,
    DATA_PRECISION,
    DATA_SCALE,
    NULLABLE
    from dba_Tab_columns
    where owner=:ownr1
    and table_name = :tablename)
    If this query returns any rows, then these indicate that there are structural differences between the tables. We do a minus in both directions to ensure that an additional column in either schema will be returned in the query.
    If you are going across dblinks to remote tables then you have to amend the "dba_tab_columns" to "sys.dba_tab_columns@yourdblink"
    If you also want to compare indexes, triggers, etc then do the same sort of thing for the associated dba_ views for those objects.
    And if you want to compare table contents, then often the fastest way is also to check minuses in both directions, if the tables are not too big:

  • Dblink is creating issue

    Hi
    We had a dblink at one of client side, they are pushing data throught a dblink since long time. Now they are facing some problem while insert bulk records through application. As a trial basis i tried to pull reccords through dblinks and is working fine.
    How can i trouble shoot on the previous dblink
    thy are getting ORA 20005;02055;02068
    Regards

    The ORA-02055 error indicates you migh have a in-dobubt transaction so you should check or have checked the contents of the dba_2pc_pending and dba_2pc_neighbors views on both systems. Manual intervention to remove the transaction may be required.

  • How to copy a table with LONG and CLOB datatype over a dblink?

    Hi All,
    I need to copy a table from an external database into a local one. Note that this table has both LONG and CLOB datatypes included.
    I have taken 2 approaches to do this:
    1. Use the CREATE TABLE AS....
    SQL> create table XXXX_TEST as select * from XXXX_INDV_DOCS@ext_db;
    create table XXXX_TEST as select * from XXXX_INDV_DOCS@ext_db
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00997: illegal use of LONG datatype
    2. After reading some threads I tried to use the COPY command:
    SQL> COPY FROM xxxx/pass@ext_db TO xxxx/pass@target_db REPLACE XXXX_INDV_DOCS USING SELECT * FROM XXXX_INDV_DOCS;
    Array fetch/bind size is 15. (arraysize is 15)
    Will commit when done. (copycommit is 0)
    Maximum long size is 80. (long is 80)
    CPY-0012: Datatype cannot be copied
    If my understanding is correct the 1st statement fails because there is a LONG datatype in XXXX_INDV_DOCS table and 2nd one fails because there is a CLOB datatype.
    Is there a way to copy the entire table (all columns including both LONG and CLOB) over a dblink?
    Would greatelly appriciate any workaround or ideas!
    Regards,
    Pawel.

    Hi Nicolas,
    There is a reason I am not using export/import:
    - I would like to have a one-script solution for this problem (meaning execute one script on one machine)
    - I am not able to make an SSH connection from the target DB to the local one (although the otherway it works fine) which means I cannot copy the dump file from target server to local one.
    - with export/import I need to have an SSH connection on the target DB in order to issue the exp command...
    Therefore, I am looking for a solution (or a workaround) which will work over a DBLINK.
    Regards,
    Pawel.

  • How to resolve most of the Oracle SQL , PL/SQL Performance issues with help of quick Checklist/guidelines ?

    Please go thru below important checklist/guidelines to identify issue in any Perforamnce issue and resolution in no time.
    Checklist for Quick Performance  problem Resolution
    ·         get trace, code and other information for given PE case
              - Latest Code from Production env
              - Trace (sql queries, statistics, row source operations with row count, explain plan, all wait events)
              - Program parameters & their frequently used values
              - Run Frequency of the program
              - existing Run-time/response time in Production
              - Business Purpose
    ·         Identify most time consuming SQL taking more than 60 % of program time using Trace & Code analysis
    ·         Check all mandatory parameters/bind variables are directly mapped to index columns of large transaction tables without any functions
    ·         Identify most time consuming operation(s) using Row Source Operation section
    ·         Study program parameter input directly mapped to SQL
    ·         Identify all Input bind parameters being used to SQL
    ·         Is SQL query returning large records for given inputs
    ·         what are the large tables and their respective columns being used to mapped with input parameters
    ·         which operation is scanning highest number of records in Row Source operation/Explain Plan
    ·         Is Oracle Cost Based Optimizer using right Driving table for given SQL ?
    ·         Check the time consuming index on large table and measure Index Selectivity
    ·         Study Where clause for input parameters mapped to tables and their columns to find the correct/optimal usage of index
    ·         Is correct index being used for all large tables?
    ·         Is there any Full Table Scan on Large tables ?
    ·         Is there any unwanted Table being used in SQL ?
    ·         Evaluate Join condition on Large tables and their columns
    ·         Is FTS on large table b'cos of usage of non index columns
    ·         Is there any implicit or explicit conversion causing index not getting used ?
    ·         Statistics of all large tables are upto date ?
    Quick Resolution tips
    1) Use Bulk Processing feature BULK COLLECT with LIMIT and FOR ALL for DML instead of row by row processing
    2) Use Data Caching Technique/Options to cache static data
    3) Use Pipe Line Table Functions whenever possible
    4) Use Global Temporary Table, Materialized view to process complex records
    5) Try avoiding multiple network trips for every row between two database using dblink, Use Global temporary table or set operator to reduce network trip
    6) Use EXTERNAL Table to build interface rather then creating custom table and program to Load and validate the data
    7) Understand Oracle's Cost based Optimizer and Tune most expensive SQL queries with help of Explain plan
    8) Follow Oracle PL/SQL Best Practices
    9) Review tables and their indexes being used in the SQL queries and avoid unnecessary Table scanning
    10) Avoid costly Full Table Scan on Big Transaction tables with Huge data volume,
    11) Use appropriate filtration condition on index columns of seeded Oracle tables directly mapped to program parameters
    12) Review Join condition on existing query explain plan
    13) Use Oracle hint to guide Oracle Cost based optimizer to choose best plan for your custom queries
    14) Avoid applying SQL functions on index columns
    15) Use appropriate hint to guide Oracle CBO to choose best plan to reduce response time

    I understand you were trying to post something helpful to people, but sorry, this list is appalling.
    1) Use Bulk Processing feature BULK COLLECT with LIMIT and FOR ALL for DML instead of row by row processing
    No, use pure SQL.
    2) Use Data Caching Technique/Options to cache static data
    No, use pure SQL, and the database and operating system will handle caching.
    3) Use Pipe Line Table Functions whenever possible
    No, use pure SQL
    4) Use Global Temporary Table, Materialized view to process complex records
    No, use pure SQL
    5) Try avoiding multiple network trips for every row between two database using dblink, Use Global temporary table or set operator to reduce network trip
    No, use pure SQL
    6) Use EXTERNAL Table to build interface rather then creating custom table and program to Load and validate the data
    Makes no sense.
    7) Understand Oracle's Cost based Optimizer and Tune most expensive SQL queries with help of Explain plan
    What about using the execution trace?
    8) Follow Oracle PL/SQL Best Practices
    Which are?
    9) Review tables and their indexes being used in the SQL queries and avoid unnecessary Table scanning
    You mean design your database and queries properly?  And table scanning is not always bad.
    10) Avoid costly Full Table Scan on Big Transaction tables with Huge data volume,
    It depends if that is necessary or not.
    11) Use appropriate filtration condition on index columns of seeded Oracle tables directly mapped to program parameters
    No, consider that too many indexes can have an impact on overall performance and can prevent the CBO from picking the best plan.  There's far more to creating indexes than just picking every column that people are likely to search on; you have to consider the cardinality and selectivity of data, as well as the volumes of data being searched and the most common search requirements.
    12) Review Join condition on existing query explain plan
    Well, if you don't have your join conditions right then your query won't work, so that's obvious.
    13) Use Oracle hint to guide Oracle Cost based optimizer to choose best plan for your custom queries
    No.  Oracle recommends you do not use hints for query optimization (it says so in the documentation).  Only certain hints such as APPEND etc. which are more related to certain operations such as inserting data etc. are acceptable in general.  Oracle recommends you use the query optimization tools to help optimize your queries rather than use hints.
    14) Avoid applying SQL functions on index columns
    Why?  If there's a need for a function based index, then it should be used.
    15) Use appropriate hint to guide Oracle CBO to choose best plan to reduce response time
    See 13.
    In short, there are no silver bullets for dealing with performance.  Each situation is different and needs to be evaluated on its own merits.

  • Unable to parse query when using dblink in forms 4.5

    Hi,
    I have created a query that uses a DBlink because I need to do query on a table located on another dbase. I've used the query on creating my report using Reports 6i. The report needs to be called from a menu on our system, which was developed under Developer 2000 (forms 4.5). The problem is, when I tried to access the report from the menu, it returns the error 'unable to parse query'. What I did after getting error was to create a dummy module using Forms 6i, and call my report from there. It worked fine.
    By the way, the table that I'm accessing using the dblink is under Oracle 9i dbase, and the dbase of the system that I've been working at is Oracle 8i.
    I don't have any idea on what's causing this error. Is there a compatibility issue when using a dblink located in Oracle 9i database with forms 4.5?
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    Not sure if it is the good answer, but I know that Forms does not recognize dblink and owner.object syntax. You have to create a simple synomym that point to the distant object and use this synonym within Forms.
