Difference between database rename and refresh

can any bodt tell the exact difference between database rename and refresh and the procedures between the both?

Oh
Rename--- as the name itself says rename the DB
your id is user583972
rename=change the user583972 to your NAME
Refresh=Copy from production and replicate in QA/DEV/TEST for the same purposes

  • What is the exact difference between Database Cloning and Database Refresh?

    Hi,
    Can anybody tel me the exact difference between Database Cloning and Database Refresh?
    I Have some conflicts in these topics.
    Thanks
    Rajesh

    Refresh is what it says, "refresh" . You have a main site which would always have the data being inserted into it. There would be another site which would remain some where else . This site needs to be refreshed with the primary site. So you need to do export from the primary, push it to the secondary site and done!

    a user is a schema and schema is a user. but when this applies to the user that he become a schema, only if he has got some objects. so we can say while creating the user which dosent contain any objects called simple user account but afterwords when he has got an objects then we can say its a schema as the above user has shown you through the exampleIt is just word-play. There is nothing in like a 'status' indicator to say "USER_A is just a user but USER_B has become a schema". Many people use the terms "user" and "schema" interchangeably, and some very good DBAs will insist this is correct. I don't disagree with them even though I usually try to make the distinction.
    In a typical application, all of the objects (tables, procedures, etc) that implement the app will be owned by a "application schema owner" - a user which exists for the sole purpose of owning the schema. Said user will have no privileges at all .. especially not CREATE SESSION. Except for possible maintenance activity no one ever actually connects as this user. User accounts are then given to actual humans who connect with their own accounts. The accounts have the necessary system and object privileges granted to them - via a role. One could also create a special account (let's call it APP_ADMIN) that is used for maintenance and batch operations within the application.

    This is fully covered in the documentation:
    About Database Applications
    About Websheet Applications
    About Packaged Applications
    There is little difference between packaged applications and database applications, other than that packaged applications are supplied by Oracle and database applications are created by you.

    HI
    An entire table can be included in a database view. In this case all the fields of the included table will become fields of the view (whereby you can explicitly exclude certain fields). If new fields are included in the table or existing fields are deleted, the view is automatically adjusted to this change.
    Database view:

  • Difference between Database, instance and schema

    Hi
    I don't know the clear difference between database, instance and schema.. In the broad sense, everything seems to be the same. If anyone can differentiate between them with some example, that will be of great help.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    In Oracle, people often do use "database" and "instance" interchangeably, or together as one term: "database instance".
    A "schema" is quite different. A schema is a collection of objects (such as tables, indexes or procedures). Every object belongs to exactly one schema, and every schema is a part of exactly one database. (Names may not be unique, however. For example, your database may have one schema named SCOTT, and another schema named USER1. Each of those schemas may have a table named EMP. The EMP table in the SCOTT schema, or SCOTT.EMP, is not the same as the EMP table in the USER1 schema, or USER1.EMP. A different database, my database for example, may also have schemas called SCOTT and USER1, which are completely independent of the SCOTT and USER1 in your database.)

  • Difference between Database Mirroring and Cloning?

    Hi,
    Can anybody tell me the exact difference between Database Mirrorring and cloning?
    Is database mirroring and multiplexing same?
    Thanks
    Rajesh

    cannot be kept current automatically with the source database It is possible using manually scripted code to automatically update a cloned database to in effect build your own mirrowing process. This is basically a description of home grown Data Guard and is how many sites maintained a ready to use backup prior to Oracle introducing Data Guard.
    The best way to create a clone database today is probably to use the rman duplicate command.
    The clone could be the base for use with a mirrowing process you are setting up or used for other purposes such as providing a consistent frozen snapshot of production for special reporting. It could become the unit test or system test environment or perhaps be used for diaster recovery purposes.
    A clone is a one-time event. Mirrowing is an ongoing process.

  • Difference between Database view and Table

    Hi there,
    Can anyone tell me the difference between Database view and Table.
    Will the Database view query be more faster than a database table?

    Tables and database views can be defined in the ABAP Dictionary.
    These objects are created in the underlying database with this definition. Changes in the definition of a table or database view are also automatically made in the database.
    Data from several tables can be combined in a meaningful way using a view (join).
    You can also hide information that is of no interest to you (projection) or only display
    those data records that satisfy certain conditions (selection).
    Database views implement an inner join. You only get those records which have an
    entry in all the tables included in the view.
    in views db modifications are not possible
    views only contain data at run time
    when they consult the database
    in case of views the join definitions are already sstored in the database itself
    whereas join as open sql is a query to oracle  database as similar select statements
    Views are optimized by SAP and stored in the repository while Joins
    are in reports that needs to be compiled at every execution

  • Difference between database design and schema design

    Hi i have visited so many database websites and i found so many people saying we can design a data base for you. Is schema designing and database designing is the same. so many palces i find people saying we have to design data base first in order to create a physical databse. so i am little bit confused. are they same? and also what is the difference between data model and schema?

    > the definition i found for logical data model, physical data model and the definition you
    gave for logical database design, physical database design are the same.
    Not correct. The physical design is the implemetation of the logical design. These two designs are at different levels. Also, the logical design will be the same. irrespective of the RDBMS product use.
    What is incorrect is a designer/architect designing a logical design specifically for Oracle.. or specifically for SQL-Server. A logical design has nothing to do with the RDBMS product (or h/w platforms. app servers, web severs and operating systems used).
    So the logical design will always be the same - it is RDBMS independent.
    The physical design is fully dependent on the RDBMS product used. The same logical design will be implemented as different physical designs for Oracle and for SQL-Server.

  • Difference between Conformed dimnesion and Role play dimesion

    hi,
    I am not able to understand difference between Conformed dimension and Role play dimension.. Can anyone please explain the diff between both with real time example.
    I am confused with Date Dimension.
    Here i encountered, Cube dimension and Database dimension,what is that actually.
    Thanks

    Hi DevBi,
    According to your description, you want to know the difference between database dimension and cube dimension. Right?
    A database dimension is a collection of related objects, called attributes, which can be used to provide information about fact data in one or more cubes. What we created in BIDS is database dimension. For example, typical attributes in a product dimension
    might be product name, product category, product line, product size, and product price. These objects are bound to one or more columns in one or more tables in a data source view.
    Cube dimension is an instance of a database dimension in a cube is called a cube dimension and relates to one or more measure groups in the cube. A database dimension can be used multiple times in a cube. Those referenced and renamed for purpose database dimension
    is role-playing dimension. For example, a fact table can have multiple time-related facts, and a separate cube dimension can be defined to assist in analyzing each time-related fact. However, only one time-related database dimension needs to exist, which
    also means that only one time-related relational database table needs to exist to support multiple cube dimensions based on time.
    Reference:
    Role-playing Dimensions

  • Confussing between Database User and Application User in Discoverer

    Hi All,
    I am new to Discoverer.
    Please let me know the difference between Database User and Application User in Discoverer Administrator as well as in Discoverer Desktop Editions.
    1) While I am trying to connect to Discoverer Desktop, I am unable to connect to it with Apps Database User.
    2) Where the Discoverer compenent will be installed and what the configuration settings need to done work on it.
    Please let me know the answers soon.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hello
    I think a database user should pretty much be self explanatory - this is a user account that exists in the database. This account is created by your Database Administrator (DBA).
    The second kind of user that Discoverer understands is a user that exists inside Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS), formerly known as Oracle Applications, hence an application user. This user account gets created by the EBS system administrator.
    Now, just because you're using EBS, it does not automatically follow that users will be application users. Let me explain.
    Discoverer can be installed in one of two modes, standard mode and Applications mode.
    The vast majority of organizations use standard mode which means they allow database users to access the system.
    The only time that you will need an applications account is under the following two rules:
    1. Your organization is using E-Business Suite, AND
    2. Your Discoverer administrator has installed Discoverer in Applications mode.
    Applicatons mode does not happen automatically, even if you have EBS, and you cannot install that mode by accident. You have to tell Discoverer that it is operating in that mode, provide some additional EBS account information, make security assignments and set users have to deliberately tell Discoverer they want to connect using an applications account.
    May I suggest you get hold of a copy of the Oracle Discoverer 10g Handbook that I wrote. That book explains in detail the differences between the modes. I also have a free white paper on my website that describes how to install Discoverer into Applications mode.
    I hope this helps
    Best wishes

    Hi Paluri
    Here is the difference between SAP locks and Database locks, i will try to find the solution to your code.
    Regards
    Ashish
    Database Locks: The database system automatically sets database locks when it receives change statements (INSERT, UPDATE, MODIFY, DELETE) from a program. Database locks are physical locks on the database entries affected by these statements. You can only set a lock for an existing database entry, since the lock mechanism uses a lock flag in the entry. These flags are automatically deleted in each database commit. This means that database locks can never be set for longer than a single database LUW; in other words, a single dialog step in an R/3 application program.
    Physical locks in the database system are therefore insufficient for the requirements of an R/3 transaction. Locks in the R/3 System must remain set for the duration of a whole SAP LUW, that is, over several dialog steps. They must also be capable of being handled by different work processes and even different application servers. Consequently, each lock must apply on all servers in that R/3 System.
    SAP Locks:
    To complement the SAP LUW concept, in which bundled database changes are made in a single database LUW, the R/3 System also contains a lock mechanism, fully independent of database locks, that allows you to set a lock that spans several dialog steps. These locks are known as SAP locks.
    The SAP lock concept is based on lock objects. Lock objects allow you to set an SAP lock for an entire application object. An application object consists of one or more entries in a database table, or entries from more than one database table that are linked using foreign key relationships.
    Before you can set an SAP lock in an ABAP program, you must first create a lock object in the ABAP Dictionary.

  • Difference between DB Export and Offline Database Backup

    Hi all,
           This is a conceptual Question.
    I want more information on what is the difference between DB Export and Database Backup? Also, it would be helpful if you can provide me with some links to them where I can increase my knowledge regarding DB Export, why it is done and tell me some scenarios.
    Thanks.
    Anil

    Hi Anil,
    I have no link for DB export for you, because you don't ask for a specific database. But if you like, you can read the export part of the System copy guide you can download from http://service.sap.com/instguides.
    But may be a short description is enough:
    DB Export:
    A DB export exports only the structure and data from the database, but no index pages. Therefore you have to build the indexes during the import. This could be very CPU intensive if your tables are big.
    DB Backup:
    A backup is a copy of all used blocks/pages inside a database (in Oracle also unused blocks). This includes structures, data and indexes. When you restore it, only the blocks/pages were moved, no additional operations are necessary.
    If you want to keep a small copy which is less release dependent than a backup, you should use a DB export (if you  use R3load, you are also DB independent). If you want to have a copy of your database which could be restored quickly , you should use a DB backup.

  • Difference between Instance Crash and Database Crash in Standalone and RAC?

    Literally, database crash means that the database itself is damaged in some way. A disk is no more. Data files are corrupted. Etc. The database itself thus causes the crash - and a database crash will also cause all database instances (RAC or single) for that database to crash too.
    An instance crash will therefore mean that the crash occurs in the instance due to an Oracle bug or similar. In other words a s/w error and not a database error. The database is still "fine", but the instance not. Instance crashes. However, any other instance on that same (RAC) database will still be fine as the database itself is unaffected by that s/w error in the crashed instance.
    If you mean something different, please enlighten us. Not all crashes are equal. {noformat};-){noformat}
