How to find out PL/SQL function usage in Discoverer workbooks?

We have to make changes to one PL/SQL function that has been registered in Administrator. Is it possible to find out in which reports the function is used? The function is called in calculations and it returns certain time information. We have to add one argument to the function and therefore have to change calculations where the function is called. We have too many workbooks to manually check them all.
I am aware how to find out which folders and items are used in workbooks but can't find the same information about functions. We are using Discoverer 10.1.2.2
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
If you calculation is in the EUL you can look at the item dependencies, but if your calculation is in the workbook there is no way other than using the workbook dump (d51wkdmp.exe) utility or opening the workbook and manually checking.
You might want to consider overlaying the PL/SQL function definition so that there are 2 variants of the function. You can then add the extra parameter as an optional parameter in Discoverer. The correct variant will be called depending on how many parameters are used.
Hope that helps,
Rod West

  • How to find out if SQL execution plan is changed proactively using job/grid

    Hello,
    Can you help me on How to find out if SQL execution plan is changed proactively using job/grid control?
    Thank you..
    -

    The answers so far are supposed to show ways how to see that a plan changed after the fact - that is not really proactive but that was the question.
    A way to see a plan change proactively would be to create a SQL Plan Baseline for the SQL statement with the 'good old' plan and then watch DBA_SQL_PLAN_BASELINES for new rows with that SQL_HANDLE which would indicate that a new execution plan was computed - although not yet used.
    Kind regards

  • How to find out CPU and memory usage for an instance?

    Hi DBA Gurus,
    How to find out CPU usage and memory usage for an instance?
    Any information is appreciated!
    Thank you!
    Robert

    you can calculate cpu usage by adding fallowing three factors which you can get from v$sysstat
    1. Parse CPU time : This represents the percentage of CPU time spent parsing SQL statements. Parse time CPU can be a strong indication that an application has not been well tuned. High parse time CPU usually indicates that the application may be spending too much time opening and closing cursors or is not using bind variables.
    2. Recursive CPU time : Sometimes, to execute a SQL statement issued by a user, the Oracle Server must issue additional statements. Such statements are called recursive calls or recursive SQL statements. For example, if you insert a row into a table that does not have enough space to hold that row, the Oracle Server makes recursive calls to allocate the space dynamically if dictionary managed tablespaces are being used.
    Recursive calls are also generated due to the inavailability of dictionary info in the dictionary cache, firing of database triggers, execution of DDL, execution of SQL within PL/SQL blocks, functions or stored procedures and enforcement of referential integrity constraints
    3. Other CPU time : This represents the percentage of time spent looking for buffers, fetching rows or index keys, etc. Generally, \"Other\" CPU should represent the highest percentage of CPU time out of the total CPU time used.
    total memory used you can calculate adding
    total_agrigate_area+sga
    memory usage on os level you can know by fallowing commands
    vmstat 5 20 depending upon os

  • How to find out all SQLs executed by a procedure

    I need to find out all SQLs executed by a procedure. I can trace and check but in my case the issue happened 4 hours back and i know what procedure was causing it. There are multiple dynamic queries fired from this procedure. I need to track down all SQLs fired by this procedure constructed dynamically during the time issue was happening.
    I have the sql_id of the statement which was executing the procedure. How do I track down all "child" SQLs using this sql_id?
    Will appreciate any pointers.
    -ravi

    Thanks for your suggestion and looking into this.
    We already have that functionality built in. Version is 10.2.0.3...But the issue is the proc is called thousands of time in a day and we can not keep the tracking of sqls and parameters passed on all the time. When the issue happened we were not tracking. The bind variables are not captured as the SQL is constructed within the proc by looking up the values dynamically from secondary tables dynamically based on the parameters passed to the procedure. Now the SQLs which are generated from the proc will have the bind variables captured as they will come as predicates and will have no clob types (condition for the binds to be captured).
    I need a query to track down all "child" SQLs by using the sql_id of the parent process which is the procedure's sql_id.

  • How to find out whether Oracle database was upgraded ??

    Hi,
    I need to find out whether my Oracle database was upgraded, If yes how to find out by SQL query .I know their is database_properties table, but when I try to query that it didnt gave me the output which I required.
    Like in SAP we have uvers table which keep info about the upgrade history, whether such history is avaliable in oracle ?? . Iam looking out for output which is like old database Release 9.2.0.7 and new database release 10.2.0.2.
    Whether similar such history is maintained in Oracle database.
    Awaiting for your feedback.
    Kind Regards
    Neenad

    Hi all,
    After checking all the material,I dont think prior to 10g, oracle register its earlier version.
    The views of v$version show the current version for various components and also dba_registry displays info about catlog/catproc versions.
    In 10g, you can use the following query to know the version when the database was broughtup.
    select startup_time,version,db_name from dba_hist_database_instance.
    Anways thanks to all of you.
    Kind Regards

  • How to find out the size of files transferred over the SQL * Net?

    I am trying to test the Advanced Compress (AC) for 11g Data Guard. When the AC is turned on, the archived log files are supposed to be compressed on the primary database server and sent over SQL*Net, then decompressed on the standby db server. We will see the file sizes are the same on both primary and standby servers. I want to verify that the AC works by monitoring how much data are sent over SQL*Net. Per Oracle, AC uses 35% less of the bandwith. That means the size of the files transferred should be at least 65% of the original size.
    Is there a way to find out the size through Oracle utilities? If not, how to find out by OS utilities? OS is Solaris 5.10.
    Thanks.

    I'm not sure this can be done via SQL*Net, but a network packet sniffer between the two servers should be able to help - you might want to contact your network team.

    Hi Raj
    Function Modules
    Function modules are procedures that are defined in special ABAP programs only, so-called function groups, but can be called from all ABAP programs. Function groups act as containers for function modules that logically belong together. You create function groups and function modules in the ABAP Workbench using the Function Builder.
    Function modules allow you to encapsulate and reuse global functions in the SAP System. They are managed in a central function library. The SAP System contains several predefined functions modules that can be called from any ABAP program. Function modules also play an important role during updating  and in interaction between different SAP systems, or between SAP systems and remote systems through remote communications.
    Unlike subroutines, you do not define function modules in the source code of your program. Instead, you use the Function Builder. The actual ABAP interface definition remains hidden from the programmer. You can define the input parameters of a function module as optional. You can also assign default values to them. Function modules also support exception handling. This allows you to catch certain errors while the function module is running. You can test function modules without having to include them in a program using the Function Builder.
    The Function Builder  also has a release process for function modules. This ensures that incompatible changes cannot be made to any function modules that have already been released. This applies particularly to the interface. Programs that use a released function module will not cease to work if the function module is changed.

    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/9f/db988735c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/content.htm
    You can execute function module in SE37ie you can perform the activiites defined in the function module by executing it.
    By deleting BOM you mention the FM name in se37 and execute. In some function module it will ask input parameters as developed in the program , you have to give the input parameters and execute.

  • How to find out sql server administrator account in sql server 2008 R2

    how to find out sql server administrator account in sql server 2008 R2
    adil

    there is any way to find out actual administrator
    because i forget that user i used to logon to server and installed sqlserver
    adil
    Hi adilahmed,
    According to your description, you forgot the account which was used to install SQL Server. SQL Server service account information is stored in Windows Registry database. You can get this information from Services Console or SQL Server Configuration.
    For example, to get account information from Services Console.
    1. Go to Start > Run > Services.msc
    2. Right Click on SQL Server Service, i.e. “SQL Server (InstanceName)” and go to properties
    3. The account information is available under Log On tab.
    Or you can get the information by using DMV and so on.
    SELECT servicename, service_account FROM   sys.dm_server_servicesGO
    If you now log in SQL Server by using sysadmin account, you can check all login names in security and find the original account to login.
