Need to run delete statments on every 10000 records.

Friends,
I require a procedure for commiting 10,000 records after deleting. I am getting error while deleting large size table.
Please send me the procedure.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Rocky

Hi Karthik,
Yeah I am deleting 70% data from the table , The database is not accessable by anyone so we can write the procedure for deleting the rows and commiting the records on every 10,000 rows.
Please suggest me which option is better for run.
Thanks
RockyIn that case just do this
1. Create a temporary table with the remaining 30% data
2. Truncate your original table
3. Insert back the 30% data into your original table. Use APPEND hint in the insert.
This would be much faster than deleting and commiting after every 10000 rows.

  • Need to run Adobe Customization Wizard every time for each new reader update?

    Hi there,
    This should be a simple question...
    Do I need to run Adobe Customization Wizard every time on each new incremental reader update, or just once per major revision (e.g. Reader 9, Reader X)?

    This question hasn't been answered because it would be better asked in the enterprise deployment forum. The Wiz is an ent deployment tool and only is used for initial deployments in most cases. You use it to customize the installer and the product when it's first installed. You could use it for any install, but that is a less common scenario.
    Usually, you customize the first version you install and then just apply updates as they are released.
    HTH.

  • Cron job help- Need to run the Autobuddy command every night...

    I have not written anything in the form of a Unix script for YEARS and YEARS. Our XServe was built in Advanced mode, currently running 10.5.4 Server. On this box, we are running Wiki and iChat. Since we built this box as an Advanced box the "Autobuddy" option was not available.
    I have since enabled it at the command line, but I am told by Apple that there still needs to be a command run after every time a user logs in if you want others to Autobuddy. That command is this:
    "sudo /usr/bin/jabber_autobuddy -m"
    Now I think this would be pretty easy to setup as an automatic cron script, but like I said, I have not written something like this in forever. Not to mention, I am not 100% sure what needs to happen since running the script with an sudo command will prompt for the root password.
    I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me write the script up, and give me some instructions on how to install it. I just want it run everyday, midnight is fine, I don't really care. All I know is that we have a dept of 150 people, and it grows and shrinks all the time. They can deal with a new user not being seen for 24-48 hours, I just want to get this automated.
    Any helps would be GREATLY appreciated!
    Thanks

    If you want to keep it simple try [CronniX|http://www.abstracture.de/projects-en/cronnix] a graphical tool for setting up CRON jobs on OSX. Whilst I have not actually done an autobuuddy in this way, I cannot see any reason why it will not run as a Cron Job.
    The proper way ideally would be to use the launchd service.
    Something like this should work:

  • Need to Run Photoshop Action on every image in Export!

    I would really save a ton of time if I could select a specific PS action to run automatically as a last step in the export process, like Image Processor script, only populated with the current set being developed.
    The process would go like this: Lightroom develops raws, then communicates with photoshop by opening it, if not already open, and then running the action(s) identified in the export settings, without any user input. For example, process raws to jpgs then run a smart sharpen action on the newly created folder of images.
    Thanks! And let me know if anyone has written a script to do this feature yet. -Dave

    Figured out how to get rid of the save as prompt. This may cause confusion with others out there, so I'll post it.
    1. You have to record a "save as" step in your action (I also recorded the "close" step), dont worry about the name here, just set the JPG setting you want in your action.
    2. Then when you create your droplet, the key is to check the override save as box.
    The combination of these two steps will get PS to sub your original filename/location recorded in your save as step in the action with the current filename (variable) the loop in the droplet passes.
    Doing only one or the other will get you a JPG prompt. Do both together. The logic here confused me. I would rather be able to specify the JPG settings in the Droplet dialog and have that written to the script without recording any save as step in my action. (like Image Processor script)

  • DO we need to run Info Package every time before DTP Process to load the da

    Hi friends,
    IN BW 7.0 do we need to run every time the Info Package before DTP process to load the data into target or only one time we need to run the Info package then from that point onwards we need to run DTP process, Please let me know. basically I am planning to create the process chains so I should put Info package before DTP to load the deltas or full load??
    Thanks a lot,
    Harshan

    Hi,
    When you are loading from source system i.e. datasource to target, you will always have to use an infopackage to load to PSA and a subsequent DTP.
    When loading for instance from DS to Cube, you only need to schedule a DTP.
    I hope this helps you.
    Best regards,

  • I have a mac 10.5 and need help figuring out how to change my email settings so it does not automatically delete my inbox every 30 days.  How to I adjust the mail settings?

    I have a mac 10.5 and need help figuring out how to change my email settings so it does not automatically delete my inbox every 30 days.  How to I adjust the mail settings?

    I think it must be an IMAP account then, & in Mail>Preferences>Accounts>Advanced>Keep copies for Offline viewing:>Don't keep copies, then on the Server, or maybe it's just this one itself, but on the Server you have a setting to remove eMails after 30 days.
    If it's a POP account we'd have to investigate that... but you didn't say so I'm guessing here.

  • I accidentally deleted something I need to run Word, if I reinstall word will all of my former documents be deleted?

    My computer has been very slow lately so I stupidly deleted a bunch of things that I didn't think I needed. Apparently I deleted something I need to run Word, I'm not sure what. I have the disc to install it and I was planning on just doing that. However, I'm concerned if I do re install it all of my documents will be deleted. Does anyone know if the documents will just go into the re installed word or will they automatically be deleted?

    Probably not but you should be backing up your data anyhow. If you are not get yourself an External HD today and begin using either SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to backup your system and create a bootable clone which will let you work if your internal HD crashes. Operating without a backup is poor computing and sooner or later will come back to bite you when you least expect it!

  • Need help: iTunes deletes apps every time I sync

    I have a new 3g iPhone (8GB), and every single time I connect my phone to my computer iTunes does its usual thing by backing up what's on my phone, then promptly deletes everything. Every single time. This is so frustrating.
    I had 38 apps this last time, and I am very tired of re-downloading all the apps every time.
    I have asked this question in other places, but either get ignored or get smart *** remarks which are both unhelpful and turn me off from Apple products. So far no one has been helpful even in the least. I'm new to Apple products, my iPhone is my very first Apple anything... I admit I don't have a clue what I'm doing sometimes. So please take that into consideration.
    One other thing, when iTunes deletes all my apps, it deletes them from iTunes as well. So I have nothing to put back onto my phone. I have to go back into the Apps Store and re-download EVERYTHING. Not fun. I'm tired of this and I only just bought the phone less than 2 weeks ago. Please help. Thanks.

    I had a similar problem... then I realized that iTunes somehow lost the location of the actual app files on my computer. Try this:
    In iTunes, Open the Applications Tab (if you don't see this, check Edit> Prefrences> General> make sure you have "Applications" checked) click on one of the apps and Get Info (Ctrl+Click/Right-Click).
    If iTunes reports that "The Application Could Not Be Used... Would You Like To Locate...?" Click yes and use Finder/Explorer to locat the actual application file stored on your machine (Probabably someplace like ...iTunes/Mobile Applications) and bingo - problem solved.
    For some reason, my iTunes was looking in my Temp folder, when the actual files were stored in their normal spot. In stead of moving the files from my phone back to my computer - it would just delete them from my phone. Now that I have relocated the files for itunes, they reappeared om my phone on the next sync.
    I hope this helps you remedy your problem.

  • Need to run start routine only once

    I understand that for every data package from ODS to Cube, the start routine is run.  But I need to run it only once.  Is there anyway to achieve this?  As the programming logic doesn't really do anything to the data package, I don't need it to be in the start routine.  But as I populate a database table using that routine, which in turn is used in update routines, I need to kick it off before the load from ODS to cube happens.  I think an ABAP routine variant can be kicked off in process chains.  Did anyone use the variant and know how to kick off the routine?  Do I have to write this logic in a function module and then kick it off using ABAP variant in Process chains? 
    I would prefer a way to limit my start routine to run once for every data load rather than kicking it off through process chain.  Can someone discuss which is a good approach and how I go about it?  Thanks for your inputs.
    Sam

    Hi Sameer,
    Let me recap you req. You want to populate a database table in your start routine and need to do it once for a load.
    There is no possible way to limit the no. of times a Start routine is run, but you can find some worksaround.
    Is there anyway you can identify that your DB table is updated with new records, i.e.
    1> You delete and refill table every time
    2> You have some kind of time stamps.
    If one of the above case is true, then you can use that as a check in the Start routine to limit the no. of times the DB table is being populated.

  • Need to run the package

    Hi friends,
    i need to run a package which will send a mail as soon after it runned. I have a package. But i need to run that package for each and every 10 min in a day. For that how i can create a job to execute that package.
    As a result of the job for each and every 10 min ill be receiving a mail. How to create a job to execute my package for every 10 min.
    Regards,

    Hi srikanth and hoek,
    Thanks for your reply.
    i dont know why the job is not running and executing the package.
    if i compiled the package separately means, i can able to execute it successfully and also im receiving mails correspondingly.
    begin
    it_check_overdue_issues.email_overdue;
    end;But if i tried to execute the above package using a job means, it is not running corresponding to the time and also not receiving emails. This is my DBMS_JOB query that i used, it is compiling successfully without errors, but not working what is wrong with it.
    DECLARE
        jobno number;
    BEGIN
        DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(
            job => jobno,
            what => 'BEGIN it_check_overdue_issues.email_overdue; END;',

  • Need to run the rescheduling job V_V2  whenever goods are received

    Any help or suggestions would really be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Balaji,
    Thanks for your quick response.
    Currently we are running V_v2 as a background job every night for all the materials.
    But now we need to run it for a material for which goods are received.
    If i run it as background job then it has to be run for a specific set of materials or for all the materials in the plant.
    But my need is whenever I receive Goods through MIGO, I need to run V_v2 automatically for the material for which i received goods.
    Hope its clear now...

  • Download content locally when needed by running task sequence functionality with Windows PE.

    I am trying to understand what happens when the "Download content locally when needed by running task sequence" option in chosen on a task sequence deployment. My assumption is that any needed packages would not be identified
    and downloaded until task sequence is kicked off. 
    Using task sequence boot media, it looks likes a package has been obtained before any task sequence has been selected. I am assuming the package was acquired during the WinPE boot process. Can anyone confirm that this is
    the correct behavior when using the "Download content locally when needed by running task sequence" option? If not, how would WinPE be obtaining the PS100292 SCCM package?
    This specific package contains and HTA file. Only one of  several task sequences deployed to the All Unknown Computers make a call to the HTA file. The one that does, the HTA call is the very first step of the task sequence.
    --Tony

    Hi everyone! I figured what was going on here. I was using an ESX VM and the package was stored on the c:\ from previous attempts and troubleshooting. Long story short, I had to rip the HDD from the VM and add a new one to set every thing back.

  • I need to run a map against a particular dataset  - how can i do it in OWB

    Hello again :)
    I need to run a map against table on a particular dataset (WHERE clause) - how can i do it in OWB?
    The map is loading data from table A into table B (doing all sorts of wierd and wonderful things in between). Now table A had more (a lot more) data added which i have to load into table B.
    How can i modify my map so that it only runs agains this newly added data (normally i would do a where clause).
    i cannot find how to do it in OWB :(
    The map i am runnig is fairy complex so i didn't really want have to create another table/view of the data i need then remap in all etc.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    thank you very much
    Kind Regards
    Vix

    Hello AP
    Well that is the thing - records are constantly added to table A all the time and then undergo tramsformations and loaded into table B. What i want to do is somehow indicate in the the map to only run agains records that have beed added (colmn2 = 'value').
    At the moment i created a view for the desired dataset (colm2 = 'value') and remapped everything. But it is a bit of a pain:
    1) there are a lot of functions and each takes a number of columns (i have some functions taking up to 6 diff columns)
    2) i have data loaded to table A all the time and i need to then transform and load it to table B. so i try to aviod doing the whole re-mapping thing all the time.
    In TOAD it would be a simple statment 'where colm2 = 'value' and all my functions will be run agains those records that satisfy the condition. How can i do it in OWB?
    If i use filter - i would have to use 'mid' table where filtered records will be loaded and from that use 'mid' table as table A in the map. does this make sense?
    the main disadvantage is the performance - moving data from one table to 'mid' table etc.
    I tried using conditional load filter and it still doesn't do what i want.
    After trying diff options i decided to ask people here about it. The only thing i have left to try is to ask Oracle support. I am sure it would be a 'user knowledge' as i am sure this functionality exist i just can't find any references to it.
    Thank you very much for all your help. In fact this forum helped me a lot with a number of other issues :)
    i just feel like a lemon coz it is very simple thing and i can't find how to do it...
    Kind Regards
