Drop a user/schema

Under a user/schema (such as tester), I created tables, indexes, packages, stored procedures, functions, etc.
1)Now If I issue a statement for dropping the user/schema, in order to delete the user/schema from the system, will those said tables, indexes, packages, stored procedures, functions, etc, be all deleted from the database system, too?
2)My understanding that the user and the schema are actually the same thing. So to drop the user tester will also drop the schema tester, or vice versa. --Is this statement correct?
Thanks

scott,
It's an eternal question : difference between schema and user.
You create a user to connect in your db.
This user, if granted, can read objects from others users;
If this user, if granted, create any objects (tables, views, etc...), he create a schema. A schema is a set of object for which the user is the owner.
Also, if you drop a user, you drop all his objects... and so his schema. We don't say that you drop schema, but you drop user, it is a little nuance...

Error when dropping a user/tablespace

Hi
I am trying to drop user/tablespaces, but I got the following error
SQL> drop user SM92 cascade;
drop user SM92 cascade
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
Currently this user has not tables or view, the statement select * from all_tables where owner='SM92' return no row
ANyone knows why I can't drop this user? What should I check?
Thanks

Hi, probably the user has dependency with other schemas, please review the Note:361576.1 into metalink site.
Good luck.

Search script generator for all objects and data (!) from a user/schema ?

Is there a way to create a script which (when run) creates all the existing
TABLES; INDEXES, KEYS and DATA for a specified user/schema ?
This (PL-)SQL script should contain all INSERTS for the currently existing rows of
all the TABLEs.
When I use e.g. export to Dumpfile I have at first find all TABLEs and components
which I want to dump. This is rather uncomfortable.
I just want to specify the user name similar to
createscript user=karl@XE outfile=D:\mydata\myscript.sql
Is this somehow possible ?

So that I understand your requirements exactly, are you asking for your script to ...
1/ export from database A the entire schema of a specified user
2/ drop all objects owned by that user in database B
3/ import the objects from database A into database B
If so, it sounds to me that a shell script that does a schema level export as Nicholas suggested, and then drops the user from database B using the cascade keyword (e.g. drop user username cascade), recreates the user and then imports the export file into B should do the trick.
I don't think searching for individual tables and creating the statements to recreate them is the best idea.
Hope that helps

EVT_, SM and SMP_ tables in a user schema

I found some tables and indexes in a user schema that this user hasn't created. 15 tables have a prefix EVT_, about 35 start with SM and about 30 have the prefix SMP_ . It seems they are some type of tables created by Oracle. What are they for and can they be deleted?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
>>What are they for
As I know SMP_ and EVT_ tables are used by Enterprise Manager, and comprise the Enterprise Manager Repository. When logging into Enterprise Manager, always log in as the repository owner.
>>can they be deleted?
if your oem repository owner is different from the user in which these tables are listed then the objects can be dropped
Cheers

How to import a user schema to its original state

Hi,
I had a task to export user schema 'USER01' with all the objects of the user, export was successful when I executed this statement.
$expdp USER1/PASS1@PD01 DIRECTORY=user1exp DUMPFILE=USR01.dmp SCHEMAS=USER1 LOGFILE=USR01.LOG
After which I dropped USER01 and tablespace USER01.
how can I import usr01.dmp so that I can have all objects of user as it was before export and dropping the user.
$impdp USER1/PASS1@PD01 DIRECTORY=user1exp DUMPFILE=USR01.dmp FULL=y LOGFILE=impfullusr01.log
will this statemnet work to import.
Thanks,
Ven

Hi,
Just two notes I'd like to share:
1 - If the user that is running the export job is prived, then the export dump file will contain the statement to recreate the schema, if it is not prived, then this statement will be missing.
2 - you ran a schema mode export which never includes the create tablespace statement.
So, you said that you dropped the schema and the tablespace. Minimally, you will have to create the tablespace where the objects existed. You may also have to create the schema if the export dump file does not contain that information. So, based on now the export was done, you will have a slightly different import command:
1. if export was from a prived account, you don't have to create the schema. If you want the data pump do create the schema, you need to run the impdp from another schema that is prived. This import job will create the original schema and all of the objects in the dumpfile.
2. If export was from a non-prived account, you will have to create the schema and then you can run the import from either the schema you just created, or from a prived schema.
Hope this helps.
Please let me know if you have other questions or if this was not clear.

Scrip to drop all users

Hi,
I want to kill all the sessions connected to the database. And I want to put it on a script so I can run it at night and drop the user and import the schema .
Thanks

another option is not to drop the user.
if the user you will import has same name and password, you may drop just all objects of the user: tables, views, procs....
you can generate the 'drop objects ' script with sql
select 'drop '||object_type||' MYUSER."'||object_name||';' from dba_objects where owner='MYUSER'
and object_type not in ('PACKAGE BODY','INDEX');
{code}
something like that...

Hello Rattandeep and Markus,
Thanks for explaining the error to me. I'm still facing the issue though!
My start profile is START_DVEBMGS00_egsap701 and instance profile is NSP_DVEBMGS00_egsap701 (they are included below).
In both profiles, the dbs/ada/schema has been currently deactivated. I get the same errors even after deactivating the parameter in both profiles. I also tried your suggestions by setting parameter values to SAPNSP and then to SAPR3 in both profiles but I'm still getting the same errors.
> the above log shows that you have to change the parameter with schema user SAPR3 instead of SAPNSP
You mean that the SAP system is started by SAPNSP user and since the profile is executed by SAPNSP user, we are getting the error? I don't know about the SAPR3 user or the user's credential. I only use bcuser/ddic RFC user to logon to SAP.
I don't know how to check the table space for SAPR3 database. As far as I know, BRTools is only for Oracle backends. So, I used Max DB database manager tool instead and found that the default NSP database has utilized about 50% data area (disk space). Overwrite mode is on and I have about 100% free log area (also determined through database manager tool). Still have not clue as to how to solve this. Please help. Thanks for your tips so far!

How many users/ schemas can we create in an oracle database?

How many users can we create in an oracle database? Or how many users can oracle handle?
Problem-
I have to store information of ontologies (I will use countries instead) in db.
I have to store information regarding countries.
I have 13 tables in all to maintain for each country.
Now there are two approaches:
1) keep only 13 tables. Have an extra column in each table to indicate that a particular
row stores information for which country.
2) create a new user/ schema for each country. So we can get rid of the extra column
needed in 1st approach.
I have used the second approach. This is because number of entries in each table for a
given country will be large.
So initially when the s/w is installed I create a central-user. Each time data for new
country has to be entered central-user creates a user/ schema, and creates tables for
this user/ schema. The central user can access the tables of all the countries by
country_name.table_name. By this approach I believe searching would be easy.
If there is any flaw in my approach kindly mention it.
Thank you

There is no (practical at least) limit to the number of users & schemas you can have in Oracle.
Your approach, however, is not going to scale nearly as well as the first option you outlined (adding a column). You are going to end up caching every possible variation of the various queries you're going to be executing because you will be referring to so many different tables, which is going to mean that you are doing a lot more work to parsing statements and generally churning through the shared pool. If you create enough users, you're liable to start hitting ORA-04030 errors because your shared pool is so fragmented.
Additionally, you're likely going to end up with a whole lot of dynamically generated SQL to accommodate new schemas getting added over time which is going to cause you even more pain. Figuring out dynamically what table to join in is a heck of a lot more difficult for the programmer to write and for the database to handle than simply passing in a different country code.
If you're concerned about having too much data, you can have your cake and eat it to by adding the country column and partitioning the tables based on country.
Justin
One other item I forgot to mention is maintainability. Having dozens or hundreds of "identical" schemas makes maintenance a huge pain because something like adding a new column now requires dozens or hundreds of separate DDL statements. You're almost guaranteed that some schema isn't going to be in sync-- it's going to miss a column or miss an index, etc.

How to restrict the user(Schema) from deleting the data from a table

Hi All,
I have scenario here.
I want to know how to restrict a user(Schema) from deleting the values from a table created in the same schema.
Below is the example.
I have created a table employee in abc schema which has two values.
EMPLOYEE
ABC
XYZ
In the above scenario the abc user can only fire select query on the EMPLOYEE table.
SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEE;
He should not be able to use any other DML commands on that table.
If he uses then Insufficient privileges error should be thrown.
Can anyone please help me out on this.

Hi,

Hi Frank,
Thanks for the reply.
Can you please elaborate on how to add policies for a table for just firing a select DML statement on table.See the SQL Packages and Types manual first. It has examples. You can also search the web for examples. This is sometimes called "Virtual Private Database" or VPD.
If you have problems, post a specific question here. Include CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements to create a table as it exists before the policies go into effect, the PL/SQL code to create the policies, and additonal DML statements that will be affected by the policies. Show what the table should contain after each of those DML statements.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using. Confirm that you have Enterprise Edition.
See the forum FAQ {message:id=9360002}
The basic idea behind row-level security is that it generates a string that is automatically added to SELECT and/or DML statement WHERE clauses. For example, if user ABC is only allowed to query a table on Sunday, then you might write a function that returns the string
USER != 'ABC'
OR      TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'DY', 'NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=ENGLISH') = 'SUN'So whenever any user says
SELECT *
FROM    table_x
;what actually runs is:
SELECT *
FROM    table_x
WHERE   USER != 'ABC'
OR      TO_CHAR (SYSDATE, 'DY', 'NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=ENGLISH') = 'SUN'
;If you want to prevent any user from deleting rows, then the policy function can return just this string
0 = 1Then, if somone says
DELETE employee
;what actually gets run is
DELETE employee
WHERE   0 = 1
;No error will be raised, but no rows will be deleted.
Once again, it would be simpler, more efficient, more robust and easier to maintain if you just created the table in a different schema, and not give DELETE privileges.
Edited by: Frank Kulash on Nov 2, 2012 10:26 AM
I just saw the previous response, which makes some additional good points (e.g., a user can always TRUNCATE his own tables). ALso, if user ABC applies a security policy to the table, then user ABC can also remove the policy, so if you really want to prevent user ABC from deleting rows, no matter how hard the user tries, then you need to create the policies in a different schema. If you're creating things in a different schema, then you might as well create the table in a different schema.

Hi, Adi,
Welcome to the forum!
As you may have noticed, this site compresses whitespace. Whenever you post formatted text on this site, type these 6 characters:
\(all small letters, inside curly brackets) before and after each section of formatted text.
To create a view involving tables from other schemas, you need to have SELECT privileges on those tables granted directly to you; privileges granted through roles aren't good enough to create a view, even though they are good enough for you to run the exact same query.
Make sure the view owner (or PUBLIC), and not merely some role given to the view owner, has privileges on all the tables.

How to copy all tables, triggers, etc from one user schema to another

Hello everybody!
I am searching for a QUERY or Stored Procedure to copy the tables of one user schema to another schema.
Should look kind of: Copy (Select * from all_objects where owner = 'UserIwantToCopyFrom') to user = 'UserIwantToCopyTO'
I am sure that my example is rubbish but I tried to explain what I want to do.
So is there a chance to do that within sql-code? I have to build a template of a user schema with hundreds of tables, triggers, etc and copy it to several other user schemas.
Thanks for your advice!
Jan

There are numerous examples available.
What you typically will want to do is:
For the export use the job_mode => 'SCHEMA' option
Export example
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/OracleDataPump10g.php
DECLARE
l_dp_handle       NUMBER;
l_last_job_state VARCHAR2(30) := 'UNDEFINED';
l_job_state       VARCHAR2(30) := 'UNDEFINED';
l_sts             KU$_STATUS;
BEGIN
l_dp_handle := DBMS_DATAPUMP.open(
    operation   => 'EXPORT',
    job_mode    => 'SCHEMA',
    remote_link => NULL,
    job_name    => 'EMP_EXPORT',
    version     => 'LATEST');
DBMS_DATAPUMP.add_file(
    handle    => l_dp_handle,
    filename => 'SCOTT.dmp',
    directory => 'TEST_DIR');
DBMS_DATAPUMP.add_file(
    handle    => l_dp_handle,
    filename => 'SCOTT.log',
    directory => 'TEST_DIR',
    filetype => DBMS_DATAPUMP.KU$_FILE_TYPE_LOG_FILE);
DBMS_DATAPUMP.metadata_filter(
    handle => l_dp_handle,
    name   => 'SCHEMA_EXPR',
    value => '= ''SCOTT''');
DBMS_DATAPUMP.start_job(l_dp_handle);
DBMS_DATAPUMP.detach(l_dp_handle);
END;
/for the import you will have to use the remap_schema option with:
DBMS_DATAPUMP.METADATA_REMAP (
   handle      IN NUMBER,
   name        IN VARCHAR2,
   old_value   IN VARCHAR2,
   value       IN VARCHAR2,
   object_type IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);There are much more details in the document that Thierry provided.
