Exadata - Any Functionality Change Between V2/X3 and the ESS/RDBMS?

All,
We are currently running a V2 quarter-rack on 11.2.0.2 BP7 and 11.2.2.3.2 ESS. We're moving to a X3 quarter-rack shortly which will run whatever the latest and greatest versions of RDBMS/GI/ESS are.
On our current Production environment, we make use of HCC and discovered that with bitmap indexes (of which we have plenty) it was necessary to disable the index, perform the HCC compression on the table and then rebuild the index afterwards.
Obviously, a very intensive operation when we have HUGE indexes.
Does anyone know if this behavior the same in 11.2.0.3 RDBMS/latest ESS? Are we still required to disable the indexes before we perform HCC on the table or have the relationship between HCC and bitmap indexes chilled a little bit?

Hi, Tycho,
Yep - got the May 21 build (BP 18) and it arrived four days later (that's what you get for ordering at Oracle's financial year end!)
I've checked and I can't find any difference in functionality in the documentation that you referenced. I'm not surprised given that Oracle seem to save functionality changes for Release levels and have the Patchset levels fix bugs.
Thanks for the link
Mark

  • I have an Apple MacBook Pro with 2 USB ports and a MiniDisplay Port. I also have an HDTV with a HDMI port. How can I use the TV as a display without any tethering wires between my computer and the TV?

    I have an Apple MacBook Pro with 2 USB ports and a MiniDisplay Port. I also have an HDTV with a HDMI port. How can I use the TV as a display without any tethering wires between my computer and the TV? I have a MiniDisplay Port to VGA adapter, but there are two issues with it: The new display doesn't have a VGA port, and even if it did, I wouldn't want to have my mac constantly attached to the display by a cable. I was looking for a way to use the TV as a display without any wires. Is there some type of bluetooth setup I could use? Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

    As I wrote above, I think you should look into the Apple TV yourself. The best place to find information about what it can and can't do and to ask your own specific questions is probably in the Apple TV forum, here:

  • Any basic differences between AT&T and Verizon, & other questions

    I am thinking of buying an iPad mini with retina display (32gb). This would most likely be the only iPad I would ever own. I would use it mostly at the house with wifi, but would like to have one with cellular for when we travel in the US and Canada, and for when the electricity goes out. We currently live in a location where both AT&T and Verizon are viable options, but sometime in the next year we hope to move. The state is rural and mountainous, so as we drive around, my spouse's iPhone (with an AT&T plan) often loses service, but so does my Jitterbug phone, which is not tied to any one carrier (as far as I know). A phone can get a signal in one locaton, but then lose it a few feet down the road. So, there is no way I can choose between AT&T or Verizon based on coverage because both are options right now and there is no way to predict which one(s), if any, might provide service to wherever we end up moving to. Therefore, I'm wondering if there are any basic differences between AT&T and Verizon (or any other of the possible carriers) in what they offer or how they work or what they charge and so on that can help me decide which one to choose since it is my understanding that once I pick one of them for an iPad, that decision can never be changed without purchasing a new device. (e.g., I had read somewhere that Verizon does not allow for voice and data at the same time, but since an iPad is not a phone, is that even an issue?) Also, will the iPad work if there is only regular 4G or 3G service? And will a cellular iPad work without signing up for a data plan since I expect to start with only wifi and then add a data plan later? Thank you.

    Alfred DeRose, Thank you for answering the second and third questions. Judging by what you wrote, I am assuming there are no differences between what AT&T and Verizon offer that affects iPads, other than looking at coverage area and the cost of "pay as you go" plans. And, as noted, coverage is not something I can base a decision on at this time. So, I either flip a coin to choose between AT&T and Verizon and hope the result is the right one after we move to wherever we end up finding a place to live, or I continue to wait for another year or more until we actually find a new house before I buy an iPad (or maybe a Kindle Fire HDX 8.9"to save money, but I think I've probably settled on an iPad mini retina 7.9" despite its smaller screen). That does not move me along the decision-making process at all, but it is what it is.
    Greatcall has not answered my question about what carrier(s) the Jitterbug Plus phone uses. If, in fact, it uses just the Verizon network, I will try to pay better attention to any possible differences in service areas between that phone and my spouse's iPhone as we travel around the state to see if that helps at all. But coverage is so location specific here that I don't think it will.

  • Color changes between Safari 3x and 4x

    Does anyone have any info about color handling changes in 4.0.2?
    I have a friend who upgraded from Safari 3x to Safari 4.0.2 and now the color is off on all her web pages. All the color on all parts of the page are desaturated. It certainly looks like a color profile problem but I can't seem to find any info about what might have changed between Safari 3x and 4.0.2.
    I put an old copy of Safari on her machine, it is 2.0.4, and the colors are completely normal in it.
    The machine in question is a macbook running 10.4.11.
    Thank you.

    I have the same problem!!
    Apple has apparently decided that unless a color profile is assigned, it will make images in its new browser look like garbage. Meanwhile they still look great on Firefox.
    I'm an artist and this is terrible. It means that to please Apple, I need to go resave and reupload all my images with an sRGB profile assigned.
    In Firefox, the images look identical to how they were saved originally in Photoshop, without a profile. Yet they look washed out and terrible in Safari.
    Gee, thanks Apple!!

  • How to forbid any further changes for PO (QTY and price ) after it has been

    Hi,
    How to forbid any further changes for PO (QTY and price ) after it has been done GR and LIV? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Price anyway cannot be changed once GR is posted on the PO item, it can be changed only by cancelling the GR, the same applies to IR too.
    But quantity can be changed at any time.
    So if you are looking at blocking qty too, then a customized message through save exit is the option, I am not aware of any standard SAP messages that can be configured to achieve this..

  • Is mirroring function possible between an Ipad and an Iphone?

    Hello,
    Is mirroring function possible between an Ipad and an Iphone?
    Wireless or not.
    Thanks

    The games are the app - there is no app that controls other apps (i.e. games) and allows mirroring. Even the games are not "mirroring" in the way of one device sending it's control out to another - you're both playing it together.
    To sum up, if the game is designed for "sharing" then you can see each other's movements on both screens - but no app can do it for other games.

  • Is there any actual difference between Release, Debug and Debug Local configurations in SSRS project?

    Is there any actual difference between Release, Debug and Debug Local configurations in SSRS project?
    For example in VC++ Debug build would have all optimization turned off (by default) and included additional Debug information in executable.
    Since there is no executable produced for SSRS - is there any actual difference between configurations? Or are they only for the purpose of deploying to different destination servers?

    Hi JoeSchmoe115,
    The Project Configuration and Configuration Manager is a feature supported by Visual Studio, on which Business Intelligence Development Studio or SQL Server Data Tools is based. We can use Configuration Manager to create and manage sets of project properties
    in project configurations. You are right that the project configurations is only for deployment purpose in a Report Server project.

  • "USB device not recognized." "The connection between your device and the desktop could not be established. Please check your setup and try again." Tungsten E2, Outlook 2007

    Hi,
    I am running XP SP 2, on a Dell Vostro 1000, Palm OS Garnet v5.4.7 on a Tungsten E2. I have worked though issues relating to synchronization, Outlook 2007, Docs to Go, etc., in the past.  Thank you board members! 
    Once I worked thru all the initial problems, my Tungsten E2 was sync' ing beautifully to my laptop until a few days ago.  There have been no changes (I know of) to the configuration, but now I receive  "The connection between your device and the desktop could not be established.  Please check your setup and try again."  On the laptop I sometimes get  "USB device not recognized."  I am unclear why I get the PC message sometimes and not others.   
    I have tried the following: (not necc exactly in this order)
    Double checked Hot Sync Mgr settings: Local USB (ver. 6.0.1)
    Reset the Palm (multiple times)
    Rebooted the laptop  (multiple times before and after the Palm resets)
    Went to Support Libraries including http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE/,/?St=57,E=0000000001060189973,K=9550,Sxi=3,Case=Obj(3695...)
    and http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE?New,Kb=PalmSupportKB,ts=Palm_External2001,Case=obj(1409) 
    Followed the steps in "Start Here" found at  http://forums.palm.com/palm/board/message?board.id=windows_hotsync&thread.id=26057 
    Moved Backup directory as per a post on this forum
    Looked for a deleted a file called "Graffiti_ShortCuts_____________" per a post on this forum
    Followed the steps in HotSync troubleshooter guide you can run through located on
    http://kb.palm.com
    Went into Device Manager - found it shows no yellow ! 's
    Followed Device Mgr Troubleshooter - went all the way thru with no solution 
    Tried all four USB ports - the PC's bell-like tone does not sound when I disconnect or reconnect the Plam's cradle like it does when I conn/disconnect other USB devices -I think that is a clue.    ...? 
    Cleaned the Palm's contacts (and cradle's contacts with a old, dry toothbrush)
    Read all the posts under "USB device not recognized." 
    OK, I'm at a loss, can anyone help me?  Many thanks in advance!

    Post relates to: Tungsten E2

    Hello!
    Using a cradle with the Tungsten E2?  Tried bypassing the cradle and just use the hotsync cable?  Tried a different computer yet?  Somehow, the PC is having problems getting a signal from the device.  I assume you have the laptop charger plugged into the laptop during this?  Not going through a docking station or port-replicator.
    One crazy thing you can try is unplug the charger from your laptop, remove the battery from the laptop and leave it out for like 10mins and put it back in and reboot the laptop.  This should not cause side effects but still contact your OEM to make sure that nothing else is needed after leaving the battery out for extended period of time.  Keep me posted.

  • Is there a way to Move files to the iCloud thus freeing up disk space on my Mac? Or does iCloud only sync (replicate) files between my Mac and the cloud?

    Is there a way to Move files to the iCloud thus freeing up disk space on my Mac? Or does iCloud only sync (replicate) files between my Mac and the cloud? I want to free up disk space on my Mac and assumed that the icloud would be a good way to do this, but having 'moved' 70Gb of files to the iCloud drive (I've upgraded to 200Gb storage) my Mac is still nearly full and I've realised that it seems to just Sync files just like dropbox.

    So, the big question is did the Apple guys confirm that this is how the new iCloud drive should be working?  I'm guessing, from your response, that this is indeed the case.  Are they going to fix this anytime soon?  I thought that this was a new function of the iCloud drive in Yosemite.
    I just want an online storage facility to back up my photo & music collections.  I did look at Dropbox as they have a good deal going with their Dropbox Pro, however this is still just a sync service where the Master files reside on your local disk drive - although I have read that there may be a way to work around this.  Still not ideal.
