How to restore some *.sql in oracle 10g

Hi someone gave me a cd with .sql backup and told me to restore it in oracle.
Can someone tell me how to do it or some hints in the type of recovery I should use?
Thanks

mmm. not much detail in there. The .sql files are probably sqlplus scripts that at a guess create objects. If you're lucky they will also define the schema that they should be created in. The .zip file is probably a file of data either in some predefined format e.g. csv, in which case you can load it using sqlldr or it could be a big file of insert statements.
My first steps would be -
1/ find out which user the scripts are supposed to be run as.
2/ read the .sql scripts to find out what they do and which order they should be run in
3/ run the .sql scripts
4/ look at the zipped file and work out how to load it.

How to create new database on Oracle 10g

Hi All,
Can any one tell me how to create new database on oracle 10g.
Thanks in Advance for your help.

again some confusion here.....
u said u need a new database in your first post and now you saying u need a new schema..
one database has many schemas(users)..... ex: scott,sys,system are few of them...
now it depends you need seperate database for test,dev environment - this is in the case u have many schemas under each database and many tables(objects) under each schema.
OR
You just need a separate schema (in same db) for test,dev environment...where in you will have multiple tables in each schema...U need to know the dba credentials of the db to create a new schema.
ideally u need to have different database...You can create one with out sys/system(oracle users) password as these passwords are db dependent.
what you need is access to the any machine where server is installed(can be the same mc where you have your dev db or a diff machine) and that will be the machine where your db will be installed (can do it through database configuration assistance),ofcourse you will need windows authentication for this.
so you login to the same machine or access it from your machine using remote login.
I hope that is clear.Hope i am not listing things that you already know..Just did it coz of confusion between db and schema

The difference is, you can't make change to SGA_MAX_SIZE effective while instance is running. Need restart database to make change effective.
Your can change SGA_TARGET while instance is running, as long as it's smaller than SGA_MAX_SIZE
to recreate a spfile,
you can shutdown your database,
find a copy of valid pfile,
startup pfile=/directory/yourpfile
and
create spfile from pfile;

How to create ODBC connection between Oracle 10g and MS SQL Server

Hi,
Can someone help us with the steps to create an ODBC connection between Oracle APPS using Oracle 10g database and MS SQL Server.
Requirement is to extract the transactional data from MS SQL Server on a daily basis and dump it into Oracle tables for an interface to be run. Currently it is being done through Dataloader tool which we feel is causing the data issue with Arabic characters. We want to create the ODBC directly between Oracle and MS SQL Server and check if the data is being pulled correctly.
The data is in sql server 2000 which has data in Arabic_CI_AS character set which is moved to Oracle 10.2.0.3 database with characterset AL32UTF8. The table data is moved to oracle using the dataloader 3.6 standard edition licensed version. We cannot change the character set of Sql Server 2000.
Please help
Thanks
Shanil

Hi,
If you're trying to PULL data from SQLServer into an Oracle database, you wouldnt use Oracle ODBC driver for that, so you may want to post in the Heterogeneous Services forum instead:
Heterogeneous Connectivity
If you're trying to PUSH data from SQLServer into an Oracle database, you could use ODBC but most folks use OLEDB for that, and the following note on MOS should help:
How to Create a Sql Server Linked Server With The Oracle Provider for OLE DB (Doc ID 191368.1)
As with any NLS related issue, the first thing to do is dump the codepoints of the data in the Oracle database to see if it is stored validly, rather than relying on what the data "looks like" from some tool or other. It's best to check a single row, with only a few characters in it if you can, and you can do that via
SELECT DUMP(<columname>,1016) FROM <tablename> WHERE ...
Hope it helps,
Greg

How to archive and Purge in Oracle 10g based on data

Hi,
Our requirement is that based on some rules stored in static tables we want to perform Archiving, purging and compression of data in Oracle 10g.
Can anyone guide me to proper information material for how to go about this?
Thanks!
Avinash.

Hi,
Thanks for the information.
But this traditional way of doing is archiving is for maintenance and backup operations.
We want to have this process online, without taking db offline. In this case will this approach work?
In our case, the rules can be like -
1. For table 'A', if rows exceed 10Million, then start archiving of the data for that table.
2. For table 'B', if data is older than 6 motnhs start archiving of the data for that table.
3. Archiving should be on for 15 minutes only after that should pause, and should resume whenever user wants to resume.
4. Archiving should start on specified days only... ETC...

How to Switch between Databases in ORACLE 10g?

Hi friends, im using ORACLE 10g.
I have two databases namely ORCL and ORCL1.
First I created ORCL and later ORCL1.
Now I am able to see the tables from ORCL1 only.
How can I switch to ORCL?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Aman, I am posting the results below.

So, I am able to get the tables through the command prompt.
But from the SQL*Plus Editor, I am not getting them.
How to get those tables(from ORCL) through the SQL*Plus editor?
Is there any other alternative for setting the ORACLE_SID permanently?
Thank you.

How to verify stored procedures in Oracle 10g.

I would like to locate default stored procedure in Oracle 10g database.
And Suggest which stored procedure can be converted in to JAVA code ??

If the Java part of the question refers to looking for potential to speed up your stored procedures:
You should consider native compilation which transfers your code to shared libraries which are bound to the DB kernel.
In this case however consider, that this does not make any sense/improvement for pure data access statements but only for procedures consisting of complex algorithmic processing.
For details refer to
[How native compilation works|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14261/tuning.htm#sthref2280]
