Gathering Entire Database Structure

Hi Geeks,
I want to gather the entire database structure for our client database, which is outside of our country and it is impossible to send the export dump file since so many formalities are there. I need to gather the information, but not through export dump file. I don't need the datas, but only the structure from A-Z.
Is there any possible way to do it.
Kindly help me.
Thanks,
Bang.

Hi,
If i understood your question correctly then can use RMAN if you have the access. invoke "show schema" command to know the structure of your Database; Eg in my case:
C:\Documents and Settings\smuthalagan>set oracle_sid=test
C:\Documents and Settings\smuthalagan>rman
Recovery Manager: Release 10.1.0.2.0 - Production
Copyright (c) 1995, 2004, Oracle. All rights reserved.
RMAN> connect target
connected to target database: TEST (DBID=1915532430)
RMAN> report schema;
using target database controlfile instead of recovery catalog
Report of database schema
File K-bytes Tablespace RB segs Datafile Name
1 460800 SYSTEM *** E:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\TE
ST\SYSTEM01.DBF
2 30720 UNDOTBS1 *** E:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\TE
ST\UNDOTBS01.DBF
3 245760 SYSAUX *** E:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\TE
ST\SYSAUX01.DBF
4 5120 USERS *** E:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.1.0\ORADATA\TE

Database structure to DTD.

Hi,
I am relatively new to XML,
so forgive me if ny question sounds trivial.
We are not in development of the
a system which be based on the relational
database and as a side project there should be some xml.
The thing is that dtd should reflect exactly
the database structure and I always should be able
to write xml file to a relational database and back.
Please understand me correctly, I can't just
write entire xml file into the database,
but rather I should be able to parse the xml file and
put the information in a bunch of tables as ordinary
number, char and varchar2 fields
(Forgot to tell I am using Oracle8.0 ).
Another thing is that the database structure may change
and I want the dtd to follow this change.
Is there any package ( freeware or not ) which would
allow me to synchronze database structure with dtd
and to write and read data to/from xml without
need of rewriting the parsing code.
Thank you very much!
Michael Larionov.

Your questions are not trivial and are the subject of at least
one W3C Working Group - XML Schema. This is in fact why there
are really no solutions yet that I am aware of for what you are
asking. DTDs are not extensible nor can they map directly to a
database schema. Now our iFS solution may deliver most of what
you are asking through its .typ file registration of a DTD to a
schema. Check out
http://www.oracle.com/database/options/ifs.html for more
information.

Generate database schema in XML from database structure

hi
I want to generate the entire database schema in XML from database structure. (Same feature is provided by Altova XMLSpy).
It would be great if there was some API that does the process of parsing the database structure and generating the XML automatically. A similiar feature is provided by Apache DdlUtils' API, but a stable version is not yet available...
Please help!
Thanks in advance.

Nikhil,
There is a wealth of information available on the Internet regarding the XML capabilities of the Oracle database.
Have you done an Internet search for "SQL XML Oracle"?
Good Luck,
Avi.

Clone entire database and import to other db

how can i clone the entire database and import to another oracle database but in different server by using software of SQL Development? (include table structure & package)

It's also not clear what you want to do. At one point you say "clone database" and in your follow-up post "clone table".
Using either conventional or data pump export/import to clone a table or schema can be pretty easy. But cloning a database using those utilities is much more difficult. There are tonnes of things in the database that even a FULL exp/imp doesn't pick up on and move. I've posted a list of that in the MOS community.

Message: "The database structure has been modified" every time I log to SAP

Hello,
"The database structure has been modified. In order to resume this process, all open windows will be closed". Every time I log to one of my companies in SAP Business One this message appears.
I haven't installed any new addons and made no changes in database structure (and any other user hasn't done any changes), but this message appears always when I log to company for the first time (when I try to log on another user or log to another company there is no message). Can anyone help me with this problem?
Best regards

The Database Structure Has Been Modified

Good Day!
Just want to ask what is the probable reason why upon using SAP, there is a system message " The database structure has been modified. In order to resume the process, all open windows will be closed. Continue?" Even upon user log in , this system message appear affecting other user's data entry. Upon adding of the document (of other users when this system message appear), all the UDFs are missing, causing their data entry to be inaccurate since you cannot update row level once the document has been added.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks
Sandra

Hello ...
This error message appears every time that has altered the structure of the database, either by creating a new field of user or user table, so it is inevitable that appear the same.
Now, it is necessary as a measure, to control who has access to make these changes, and that they are made without users.
I hope it will help
Best regards,

The database structure has been modified - how to check if it happend?

Hello,
I have a question. How to check if the database structure has been modified? I know that there is shown a messagebox after creating table and adding some fields, but sometimes this message appear after some seconds. The problem is that I want to create table and UDO for this table, and until database structure is not modified I got an error message. If I wait and DB strucuture modifies then UDO is creating correctly.
My question is - does anyone know how to check if database structure has been modified?
Regards,
Hmg

Hi Szymon,
I guess you are stuck up in a kinda scenario, where in, you will be populating a form with values, before the structure modifies, if this is going to be your problem, I can help you out with a work around.
In the beginning of the process, before the creation of the UDO or tables, set a boolean value to false, and once all UDO's and Tables are created, only then, should you make it true and only after the boolean becomes true, you should proceed with populating the values from the screen.
I really ament sure what your problem is, but one of my guys faced this problem, I then, thought even you might have a similar problem.

My iTunes keeps crashing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, including recreating the entire database, and it is still doing it. I recently upgraded to 10.5. Any ideas?

My iTunes keeps crashing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, including recreating the entire database, and it is still doing it. I recently upgraded to 10.5. Any ideas? I am running Windows 7 on a new, decent, laptop. The music is on the laptop's hard drive. There is plenty of hard drive space left.
iTunes starts fine, and I can do stuff, then within a minute or two or three it gives me an error message pop-up.

The error message says:
iTunes has stopped working.
Windows can check nline for a solution to the problem.

I've chosen both items, neither does anything but close the program. This problem is new with iTunes 10.5; I did not have it before.

Is it possible to change selection screen of logical database structure?

I have to create a z report for a standard transaction FBL01N which is extracting data according to the vendor account number(LIFNR) at the selection screen. Now as per the requirement the system should extract details according to 'vendor name' keeping the same functionality.
But the standard program is using some logical database structure KDB and the include for the selection screen is DBKDFSEL.So can I modify the selection screen of this transaction replacing Vendor No with Vendor Name.

How to install an entire directory structure and files with the LabVIEW installer

I think I may be missing something on how to do this - preserve a file directory structure in the LabVIEW build process.
Is there an easy way to distribute an entire directory structure (multiple directory levels/text files) and have the LabVIEW build process properly preserve and install them? I included a directory in my build specification but it completely flattened the file structure and then so when the installer builds it, the resulting structure in the /data directory is flattened as well. I'd prefer not to go through each file (~100) and setup a specific target location. Is there an easy way to preserve the file structure in the build process/installer process that I am missing (maybe a check box that I didn't see or an option setting somewhere)?
-DC

Hi DC
Sorry for the delay in responding to your question.
You should be able to do this using a 'Source Distribution' as described below:
- Right click on 'Build Specifications' and select 'New' - 'Source Distribution'
- Provide a name
- Add your files to 'Always included' under 'Source Files'
- Under 'Destinations' select 'Preserve disk hierarchy' and ensure that 'Directory' is selected as the 'Destination type'
When building an installer your can then choose to include your source distribution and it will be installed to a location of your choosing.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards

Use same report with same database structure to different database server.

Hi,
I have standard crystal reports which needs to be copied to another database server.
The origin database has exactly same database structure with the data base in other server.
My only question is how to change the connection of the crystal report file from old database server to new one without affecting the linked tables in the report. Would it be possible?
Note: origin database and new database has same structure, tables and columns but differ in data on it. and both has different server. (MS SQL)
Thanks,

Hi Mark,
Open the report in the CR Designer > select Database option on the top > select Set Datasource location.
The pane on the top shows the current connection. Go ahead and create a new connection to the target database from the pane at the bottom. Once created, highlight one table from the top, highlight the corresponding table from the bottom pane and click Update. Do this for each table.

Automatic Checking of Database Structures

In OSS note 521870 SAP recommends to perform a weekly
check of the Database Structures to verify that the
Maxdb database is not corrupt. Unfortunately this
OSS note only describes the manual procedure to
perform this task:
dbmgui -> Check -> Database Structure
Is there any way to easily schedule this also via dbmcli?
The SAP online documentation contains some interesting
information about integrating the check into the CCMS,
here I can see whether the database structure check
was performed recently, but unfortunately I cannot
schedule it
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/maxdb/en/30/5ada6e596211d4aa83006094b92fad/content.htm
All I can find here is to schedule it via DB13,
but unfortunately my SCM 4.1 system is running on
Oracle and I want to check the liveCache on Maxdb,
so I cannot use DB13 for scheduling the check.

Hello Mark,
Central DBA Planning Calendar ::
In the user menu, choose the Central DBA Planning Calendar
(transaction DB13C).
If it is not already there, add your liveCache to the list of systems.
To do this, choose Configuration ® Add System.
System ID: Enter here the liveCache name that you assigned during the
integration of the liveCache (using MaxDB/liveCache System Overview).
Database: Choose SDB/LVC.
Database Release: Choose the liveCache Version in accordance with the
version notation .
Select No SAP Basis.
Database Server: Enter the name of the liveCache server.
Connection Name: Enter the name of the database connection.
To switch to a local DBA planning calendar, choose Local Calendar and then
select the system for which you want to edit actions.
Please also review the SAP notes 940420, 521870 ( you already know this note ).
And note 820824 FAQ: MaxDB to find the note for the documentation & more -
For SAP liveCache documentation in English:

SQL server database structure

Is it possible to create an 'XML file' from a SQ Server 2008R2 database structure?

You could query the information from DMVs (sys.columns, sys.tables etc) and use the FOR XML PATH() clause to create xml file of the data.

Update the database structure from entity Framework Model

Hello !
I'm using VB.net , EF6 with SQL server 2008R2 database.
This is the situation :
I have created the application. Using wizard I have created the Entity model from an existing database.
A client start using this application using this database on his computer.
After some month , I made some modifications on the database and I have updated the model on my application .
Now I have a new .exe file that has the new model from the new database.
I put the new .exe file on the client computer.
Now on his computer : The .exe file has the new database model , but the sql server database has the old structure.
I want to know : Is possible to update the database structure from the entity model on application ?
I want to add a command on application that can make ( if is possible ) this update , so the database become up to date according to entity model ?
Thank you !

Hello,
From your description, it seems that you want to apply a migration for a database first approach, unfortunately, as far as I know, EF Migrations is a product targeted at Code First and doesn't support Database First operations. A workaround I know is to
use update-scripts. If your database structure would be changed frequently, it is recommended to use the Code First approach which would have a better workaround for migrations, for details, you could refer to this
video,
and with the
Entity Framework Power Tools, it is easy to create a code first based project form an existing database.
