Please help! THank you.there is nothing inherent in an Oracle database that defines how YOUR organization chooses to use it. As far as oracle is concerned a database is a database is a database. The only people who can answer your question are those within your own organization.

How can i identify the environment name or database name in the PL/SQL code

Hi,
I am using UTL_FILE to genearate the files.,
My problem is, I have to design the common sql file , which can be executed in 2 diffrent environments ( Say QA & DEV ) , with no parameters. It has to identify the environment and based on the environment , it has to generate the concern files.,
The only change needs to be incorporated is , file names , which will change based on the environment.,
can nay one tell me , how can i identify the environment name or database name in the PL/SQL code ??

In this case, USEC_GI_DEV.NA.XXXNET.NET is a TNS alias. That alias exists only on the client machine. There is no way to access that information on the database server.
You would have to find something in the v$database or v$instance table that uniquely identifies the database (and you may need some help from the DBAs to do this because you need to ensure that the data element you choose is compatible with whatever refresh process(es) are used in your environment).
Now, if you are writing a stand-alone SQL*Plus script, SQL*Plus, as a client tool, does have access to the TNS alias in later versions. But that is a client-side determination, not a server-side determination.

How do l create a new database in Oracle 10g Express

How do l create a new database in Oracle 10g Express, other than the one that is created on installation?

Hello,
You cannot create a second XE database on the same server.
But, Oracle database can support as many Schema as you want.
"Oracle database" is like "SQL Server Instance" and "Oracle Schema" is like "SQL Server database". I means by this shortcut that for
the end users accessing to different Schemas looks like accessing to different databases.
You can have several applications on the same database. Each application has its own Schema and Datafile (Tablespace) structure.
So on your XE database you can add a new Tablespace and create a new User/Schema as follows:
sqlplus /nolog
connect / as sysdba
create tablespace {color:red}new_tablespace_name{color}
extent management local autoallocate
SEGMENT SPACE MANAGEMENT AUTO
datafile '{color:red}complete_datafile_name{color}' size 100M autoextend on next 10M maxsize unlimited;
create user {color:red}new_schema_name{color} identified by {color:red}password{color}
default tablespace {color:red}new_tablespace_name{color}
temporary tablespace TEMP
quota unlimited on {color:red}new_tablespace_name{color}
grant connect, resource to {color:red}new_schema_name{color};Then you can connect to this new User/Schema as you defined it and create your new structure and load datas.
Hope it can help.
Best regards,

How can i identify Patch no ? How it is differ from patchsets no ?

Hello to all ;
I read official document it says
All patch and patch set releases carry version numbers. - patch set might be 10.2.0.2 , .... , 10.2.4.0 , 10.2.5.0
How can i identify patch number ? My DB version is 10.2.0 is , what's my patch release no ?
Thanks in advance ..

Ok. Almost i got well information about patches from HERE ..
Collected information's from here :0 , If my understanding is wrong , please correct it
patches Patches are software programs for individual BUG FIXES. Oracle issues product fixes software, usually it is called as patches.
patche SetsA group of patches form a patch set. Patch sets are usually applied to upgrade oracle version. EX ( 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.4 )
If my DB needs patch ,I want to upgrade DB , version to Version (10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.4)
If my oracle S/w needs patch ,A small collection of files are replaced to fix certain bugs , when aaplying patch into my oracle S/w
When applying patch/patch sets , what affected my database directly ?It depends upon patch ..
My Special thanks :0
Ok Osama , It's my final question :
I read , If i applied PSU patch , i can't apply CPU patch ( until dB upgade to new version)- What's the specific reason here ?
If someone applied a patch on my DB , how can identify what type of patch applied on my DB ? (if it is PSU or CPU)- I mean how can i identify , whether the patch was PSU or CPU ?
How can i differentiate both patches when seeing ?
Thanks Osama ..

Thank youLike everything else, the answer is "it depends".
What is your background and experience with computers, networks, operating systems, programming languages?
What are you currently doing?
What formal and or on the job training have you had?
As Aman said, build yourself a test system and play with it. You can do this at no cost by ...
1) download and install VMplayer (vmware.com). It is legally free. For an investment in your career of about US$185, you can buy VMworkstation, which has the same fundamental capability plus some nice management features.
2) download and install Oracle Enterprise Linux (oracle.com). It is legally free. If you want a support contract, you pay for that.
3) using (1) and (2) create a virtual linux server
4) download and install Oracle Enterprise edition database (oracle.com). It is legally free for personal eduction.
5) install (4) on (3).
Beyond the above questions I have some boilerplate replies that fit here . . .
if people want to be professionals in ANY field, the first knowledge they need to acquire is how to locate AND USE+ the fundamental reference materials for that profession. And the most important trait, the one for which they are really hired, is the ability to do independent research, and having a modicum of curiosity that would drive one to do that research. We don't mind helping newbies, and even the most experienced person on this board will run into something they are not familiar with, or occasionally just require a second set of eyes to look at something. But a professional+ needs, above all, a willingness and capability to check the docs. A professional isn't necessarily someone who has all the answers at their fingertips or has a full understanding about every arcane subject in their field. It certainly isn't someone who has an encyclopedia full of memorized answers but little understanding of how it all fits together. It's someone who knows where to find the answers when needed, how to recognize them when he sees them. It's less about knowing than it is about attitude. Everything you asked can be answered in the Oracle Concepts Manual at tahiti.oracle.com. You should bookmark that site.
=================================================
Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to tahiti.oracle.com.
Drill down to your product and version.
BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

Migrate from UAT database to Production database

Hi all,
I need to set up my production database based on the UAT database.I would like to re-generate all my objects script and grant scripts from UAT so that there will not be any discripency. I can't go for full db export due to some apps constraints.I'm planing to generate grant scripts from dba_tab_privs for each role and generate public synonym script from dba_objects for each user.Object inventory can be taken from dba_objects for each user. FK and PK constraints are another worry.
Am I on a right path?? My worry is that, I may miss out something. Can anyone guide me?

I think Bhandari's advice is good as long your UAT and PRODUCTION on the same OSWhat about the data? UAT is going to full of rubbish data that nobody would want in a production system. But you wouldn't want to zap it from UAT because you'll need it for the next release (patch, enhancement, whatever). So you copy it all over into Production and then remove everything that's not supposed to be there? Starting a release by trashing the data in production doesn't sound very clever to me. Furthermore it's a complete non-starter for managing an incremental release.
Using Import/Export isn't much better. Neither is generating scripts from the UAT data dictionary. Forget about Release 1.0! Think about how you're going to manage 1.1!
The simplest, the least effort, the most robust approach is to create Production from the scripts that were used to build UAT. Anything else is more complicated, more work, less reliable. The only reasons why anybody might need to take some other approach are because they didn't build UAT entirely with scripts or because they didn't subject those scripts to source control. And that's what I mean by bad processes.
LALEAGTFOTP!
Cheers, APC

How do you identify the Logical system in start routine of a transformation

My scenario is this. I have five r3 systems that I am extracting from. In the start routine of the transformation from the r3 data source to my data store I am going to delete data and I need to know the source system id. How do I identify the logical system or source system id in the transformation. Is there a system field that contains this information. I do not want to hard code the source system id in the routine.

hi
have a lool at tables rsreqdone and rsbkrequest with a join you should be able to determine the source.

How to check SSO user from database?

Hi:
I've posted this topic in Forms forum:
How to check SSO user from database?
then as I've been told, it's better to post it here, so ...... here is the question:
I'm writing a "before delete trigger" to insert into log table before delete. Is there a way that I know from database the current SSO user when SSO users share one database user?
Just like in Oracle Application Express there is v('APP_USER') to know the current user.
Saad,

End users are manipulating data through Oracle Forms(and SSO through portal) and the thing I need is to trace the SSO username from database without modifying forms, I mean purely from database taking into consideration that SSO users are sharing one database user. Is it possible?
Saad,

How to save pdf file in database

Dear All,
my application is forms 6i and database is 8i,requirement is that how to save pdf file in database and users can view through forms

I'll apologize up front for the length of this post. I have a few database procedures I created that write a file to a BLOB column in a table as well as retrieve the BLOB from the column after it stored there. I have successfully stored many different types of binary file to the database using these procedures - including PDF files. I have not used these procedures in a Form so I can confirm that they will work, but theoretically they should work. I'm including the code for each procedure in this posting - hence the apology for the long post! :-)
Also, since these procedures reside on the database you will need to use Forms TEXT_IO built-in package to write your file to the server before you can use these procedures to store and retrieve the file from the database.
These procedures reads and writes a binary file to a table called "LOB_TABLE." You will need to modify the procedure to write to your table.
