Flashback in oracle magazine

I have not used Oracle as yet. We are still on the mainframe. But I was looking at ORACLE magazine article November/December issue and page 62. When doing flashback you have to shutdown oracle and then startup mount to do flashback.
A question?
1. In mainframe world, we do not have to bring down CICS to do restore on a certain file - mayebe just close it. All people can still use CICS except that file.
2. Oracle do you have to take down the whole database just to do flashback and stop everybody from doing their job?
Thanks
Ronald

    For the Flashback Database feature, the database must be in a mounted state and not open when performing the flashback. Unfortunately Oracle does not provide a way to take an open database to mount without first shutting down the database.
    Other Flashback features such as Flashback Drop and Flashback Query, the database can be opened.

  • Single-step deployment article from July/August Oracle Magazine Question

    Hi,
    As I worked through the article "Single-Step Deployment" on Oracle magazine July/August Issue,
    I ran into a problem on substep 9 of Step 3 to
    change the option of P2_MANAGER_ID with LOV.
    The error I got is
    LOV query is invalid, a display and a return value are needed, the column names need to be different. If your query contains an in-line query, the first FROM clause in the SQL statement must not belong to the in-line query.
    Did anyone encounter same problem?
    Any suggestion to deal with this error?
    Thanks for any advice.
    YY

    Hi,
    Have you given your column names aliases?
    Cheers,
    Mike

  • Apex not on Oracle Magazine Renew Survey

    I just renewed my Oracle Magazine subscription today and noticed that Application Express is not listed in the survey. I know that it is part of the Oracle database, but shouldn't it be listed under the Oracle Development Tools?
    Mike

    I noticed the same thing this morning. Thought it was rather strange that it wasn't listed anywhere, like under Toold or Framework (I think those were the categories).

  • From Forms Product Management - Forms/J2EE Article in Oracle Magazine

    Oracle Magazine have published a great article explaining how Forms and J2EE are providing complementary technologies. Read how one of our customer has found a good balance in building their business applications.
    Link on otn.oracle.com/products/forms
    Regards
    Grant Ronald
    Forms Product Management

    I wonder if it is really difficult for Oracle to make easy the switch from Oracle Forms to Jdeveloper... ADF is a pretty nice thing... but it's not so good as Forms are in RAD for databases!
    The best project from Oracle I knew about making Forms developers build lightweight web applications was Cherokee Project... That was a pretty nice project that was abandoned in favour of the new ruler... JAVA and Jdev! With the goals of project Cherokee achieved any Oracle Form developer would build that kind of apps... but not with current JDEV 10G!
    I really feel that I am a "pl/sql and forms" developer, and that java makes me write too much code for something i would use one code line in forms or sometimes don't need at all to code! CMiC developers think the same! It's really slower to develop for J2EE! I switch from VB and Delphi to Forms cause Forms is the only truth RAD for database applications! And as I said lately in another posts I feel "pression" to move to another place than forms... Pression is several ways, either the new pricetag for AS EE or AS Forms only, either technological pression!
    So as explained in "A Forms Break" article (http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/05-jan/o15form.html) the pression is there... They had 20 Forms developers, and now they just have 10, and have 10 Jdev developers! 6 here converted from forms to J2EE... and the others? That's one kind of pression that's made and that's real! They have to move from Forms to J2EE, cause if they don't... they'll get fired one day!
    The best of the best "App Server" i know is Oracle AS... but it's also the most expensive one for people that develop database applications. When i create an application in Delphi my customers don't have to pay €20000 for licensing any app server... so it's really too much for small and middle size company's.
    This article is useful to see and understand the SOD of Oracle in a global strategy and not from one perspective only... like Forms SOD perspective. I think Oracle Forms will end as a core product between 2008 and 2010. Will Oracle melt with success Oracle Forms Developers in Jdev with no pain? I believe that no more than 50% oracle developers will do it... Others will go to other technologies... most of them opensource like XUL or GnuE (Forms,Reports).
    So, that's my point of view... and of course it's not the point of view of all Forms developers.

  • Apex 3.1 in Oracle Magazine

    Hi all --
    I was reading the March/April edition of Oracle Magazine and ran across a blurb stating version 3.1 is available and shipping. Is this correct?
    Thanks for the information!
    Leigh

    Leigh,
    No this is not correct. 3.1 is still in BETA testing. You should however be able to run through the instructions in the article using the BETA evaluation instance. Just need to request an account, here:
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=eval31
    You can also of course also participate in the evaluation process, the more the merrier!

  • Latest article in Oracle Magazine..

    I know is slightly off-topic, but I have a question..
    When do they normally post the articles online from Oracle Magazine? I received the latest version of the magazine and wanted to download Raj's last article, and it is NOT online yet!!!
    Just wondering if anyone has an idea..

    Hi Tony,
    My issue just arrived today, so there must be a bit of variance :)
    Any idea who will take over for Raj with Oracle Corp in regards to being the product manager for App Express?
    I don't work for Oracle Corp. and I'm not privy to that sort of information, so I can't really comment with any authority. But, I do know a few of the team members and they are all very good / very bright people. Scott Spadafore is currently a PM for APEX, and I certainly don't think there is any danger of the product "falling off" or anything like that. I guess the team meetings might seem "a little less caffeinated" without Raj, though. (He has an abundance of energy and exuberance, at least when compared to me!)

  • Flashback in oracle 9i

    Dear all:
    I am careless to drop a table. Can I flashback the table use "SQL> FLASHBACK TABLE RECYCLETEST TO BEFORE DROP;" in Oracle 9i ?
    Regards
    Terry

    In 9i you could use Flashback Query to recover unwanted DML changes if UNDO is being managed appropriately.
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/9i/FlashbackQuery.php
    And to recover from a DROP or TRUNCATE TABLE you could use RMAN Incomplete recovery if db is setup properly in terms of backups and archive logs.
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/9i/RecoveryManager9i.php#IncompleteRecovery
    Perform recovery just before the time of disastrous DROP or TRUNCATE.

  • Where can I find Oracle Magazines that are prior to  2006?

    I tried to find an archive which name is "Parsing XML Efficiently", and the linkage to it is "http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/03-sep/o53devxml.html", but cannot find it actually. I also found all the magazines that are prior to 2006 are gone.
    Anyone can help me?

    I think you can report the broken link in the {forum:id=165} forum, maybe someone could help you there.
    (though I'm pretty confident you can find more up-to-date materials on the subject)

  • Flashback in Oracle 9i-r2

    Unfoutunately, i have truncated a table which data was quite important for our users. My database version is 9i-r2 on UNIX platform. Please give me any idea to restore this table. Remember, this database is quite important for our company and they will never ready to give any down time.

    If you did truncate table you can not restore table simple "flashback table" statement,You can flshback database.
    If you have backup then restore table from backup.

  • Example Oracle Magazine page 65

    Hi,
    I'am trying to follow example on page 65 in last Oracle Mag about Websheets in Oracle APEX.
    But when I'am changing the sql-statment, I will get "ORA-20001: Query must begin with SELECT or WITH".
    [[SQL: SELECT
    cust_first_name,
    cust_last_name
    from demo_customers
    order by cust_last_name]]
    What is wrong?
    This query is working:
    [[SQL: SELECT
    cust_first_name
    from demo_customers
    order by cust_last_name]]
    If I add alias to the column or add a new column I will get "ORA-20001: Query must begin with SELECT or WITH"..
