How to Suppress The Output of a SQL Query In Oracle 11gR2

Hi Friends,
I am using oracle version 11.2.0.1, I have set a cronjob which will run on every 15 minutes and give us a log file mentioning the execution time taken for that SQL query:-
For example:
SQL> set timing on;
SQL> SELECT objProp FROM aradmin.arschema WHERE (schemaId = 175);
OBJPROP+
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
*6\60006\4\0\\60008\40\0\60009\4\0\\60010\4\0\\60018\4\0\\600*
*22\4\68\1\63\AR:jRL#*
Elapsed: 00:00:00.00
The above query will return the output as well as the time taken for execution of the query. I want to suppress the output of the query and only want the time taken to be printed. Is it possible by set commands. I have marked the output as bold and made it Italic.
Please help me at the earliest.
Regards,
Arijit

A query from a tool such as sql*plus is STILL going to send the output to the client and the client. You can keep sql*plus from actually displaying the data by setting autotrace to trace only.
But that TIME TAKEN is still going to include the network time it takes to send ALL rows that the query returns across the network.
That time is NOT the same as the actual execution time of the query. So unless you are trying to determine how long it takes to send the data over the network your 'timing' method is rather flawed.
Why don't you tell us WHAT PROBLEM you are trying to solve so we can help you solve it?

We never saw your procedure, but maybe you could wrap it in a function

How to measure the performance of a SQL query?

Hello,
I want to measure the performance of a group of SQL queries to compare them, but i don't know how to do it.
Is there any application to do it?
Thanks.

You can use STATSPACK (in 10g its called as AWR - Automatic Workload Repository)
Statspack -> A set of SQL, PL/SQL, and SQL*Plus scripts that allow the collection, automation, storage, and viewing of performance data. This feature has been replaced by the Automatic Workload Repository.
Automatic Workload Repository - Collects, processes, and maintains performance statistics for problem detection and self-tuning purposes
Oracle Database Performance Tuning Guide - Automatic Workload Repository
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/autostat.htm#PFGRF02601
or
you can use EXPLAIN PLAN
EXPLAIN PLAN -> A SQL statement that enables examination of the execution plan chosen by the optimizer for DML statements. EXPLAIN PLAN causes the optimizer to choose an execution plan and then to put data describing the plan into a database table.

How to read the output of 'tarantella license query' command?

I'm trying to track my license usage (to better determine when to buy new licenses, and to track usage over time).
When I issue the 'tarantella license query command, this is typical of the output I see:
[root@sgdserver ~]# /opt/tarantella/bin/tarantella license query
License usage at: Mon Feb 11 14:03:53 EST 2008
Type                In use / Total
Base                6      / 230
UNIX                4      / 230
Mainframe           0      / 230
Windows             0      / 230
AS/400              0      / 230
[root@sgdserver ~]#What is the above saying? Is it saying that I am using 10 licenses out of my 230, or am I just using 6 licenses? In other words, do I add up the numbers or just use the highest one? Or do I just have to worry about the 'Base' license number?
Thanks.

The base license is the number of users that are logged into a webtop.
From there you count then connectivity type.
So you have 6 webtop licenses out of 230 consumed and of those 4 users have launched UNIX sessions out of 230 you have licensed.
hope this helps.

How to use the result of a sql query for a max () function

Hi
I wrote a query on which i wrote
"select max(id) from users "
how can i use the returned value.
if i made the var name ="userid"
can it be userid.rows[0] or what.
thnx for any help

Hi!
The result of this query will be the max ID of users' IDs.
Let say we have:
String sql="select max(users.id) from users";
Statement st = ctx.conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery(sql);
rs.next();
So you can get the max Id in the following way:
int maxId=rs.getInt("id");

How is the output of TempDBAnalysis.sql run during a SQLDiag.EXE session used to troubleshoot tempdb contention?

Hi,
I recently came across the option in PSSDiag configuration utility to collect data using the "SQL 2005 tempdb Space and Latching" option. I executed this on a test server and it generated the file {servername}_TempDBAnalysis_Startup.out.
This contains the output of a set of queries that are run in a 10s loop.
I have two questions regarding this output.
1. Are there any of the analytical tools in SQLNexus or PAL that display, summarize, or trend this data in any way? I do not see any but would like to confirm with the forum.
2. If there are no analytical outputs, is there any summary out on the web of how to analyze this data, how to import it into a db, or how to interpret the output of each individual query?
Thanks in advance for any assistance in this matter!

How to pass the result of a SQL Query as parameter to another SQL Query

ThanksYou should craete PL/SQL code with cursor which will accept a parameter and call that cursor inside the first one
But if the first sql returns only one row, you can do it with simple sql code
select * from (select distinct table_name as TAB1 from all_tab_cols where table_name like 'T_%' and column_name like '%XYZ')- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Check out OSS Note No.747818
You can use the ~no_its_header parameter to deactivate the default
header that is generated. As soon as this parameter contains any value,
header generation is suppressed. In ITS 6.20, you can set the parameter
with the AdminTool. You will find the relevant switch under
Security-General.
If the ITS is integrated into the WebAS (SAP Netweaver 04 and higher),
you must maintain the parameter in the ICF service. Note that you have
to maintain the parameter individually for each service.

Saving the output of a .sql file in .csv format

Hi,
I am saving the output of a .sql file in .csv format. But the problem is , the record of few columns have "new line" character in it, so when it is getting saved in .csv format, those records are coming in multiple rows, but they should come in one single row in single block. Please advise how to overcome this problem.
Regards,
Niraj

Hi Guys,
I guess, there is a misunderstanding.
He is talking about the issue caused as a result of the data containing a "CRLF" ( Carriage return Line feed ) .
That is mainly a data issue.
The query i presume, must be right.
I guess you should be able to fix it using some string functions.
Some thing similar to this
CREATE TABLE ASH (NAME VARCHAR2(10))
SELECT REPLACE(NAME, CHR(13)||CHR(10), 'ISH') FROM ASH;
SELECT REPLACE(NAME, CHR(10), 'ISH') FROM ASH;
SELECT REPLACE(NAME, CHR(13), 'ISH') FROM ASH;
depending on the type of new line whether it is CR or LF. or CRLF.

How to copy the output of procedure to a view or table

Hi...
I created a procedure using Hana Studio and it returns the multiple rows as output.
My query is , how to copy the output to a table or view when it is called like this "cal _SYS_BIC.procedureName "
Please go through the following image:
How to copy the output content to a table or view....
Thank u...

Hi Mohan,
The logic is like, you can attach a view(so called column view) to any procedure which returns a result set. SO, instead of calling the procedure using CALL statement, you can simply query the VIEW to get the result set. Internally the procedure will be executed.
Have a look here :
http://help.sap.com/hana/SAP_HANA_SQL_Script_Reference_en.pdf
Eg :
You create a procedure using a result view ProcView to return its results.
CREATE PROCEDURE ProcWithResultView(IN id INT, OUT o1 CUSTOMER) LANGUAGE SQLSCRIPT
READS SQL DATA WITH RESULT VIEW ProcView
AS
BEGIN
o1 = SELECT * FROM CUSTOMER WHERE CUST_ID = :id;
END;
You call this procedure from an SQL statement as follows.
SELECT * FROM ProcView WITH PARAMETERS ('placeholder' = ('$$id$$', '5'));
Hope this helps you to solve the issue
