_optim_peek_user_binds and cursor_sharing=SIMILAR

Hello evey DBA,
Please tell me If I am wrong :
I think that the setting of "_optim_peek_user_binds" has no sens, if "cursor_sharing=similar"
Because, when the cursor_sharing=similar, oracle ALWAYS peeking the bind variables to check of the repartition of the corresponding columns on the histograms, and decide if it can use the same plan or if it's better to generate a new plan ...
Assume that the columns in question have their histogram.
Am I wrong ?

There are very many references to ""_optim_peek_user_binds" on MetaLink. So it isn't exactly "undocumented ... there is no official description of its purpose". The cat is out of the bag.How about - this is a deliberately hidden parameter. Hidden parameters are hidden for a reason.
According to Metalink note 315631.1 "NB:It is never recommended to modify these hidden parameters without the assistance of Oracle Support.Changing these parameters may lead to high performance degradation and other problems in the database." And Note 790268.1 shows a method of finding sessions that have set hidden parameters.
Based on information in Metalink and other sources, one could reasonably conclude that
- hidden parameters may change in impact or meaning at any upgrade or patch, so even version is not enough to properly discuss them in all cases;
- hidden parameters should not be published or discussed at length in a public forum, lest newbies misinterpret and use them to potentially disasterous effect;
- hidden parameters could be discussed in specialty and advanced forums (such as Oracle Scratchpad) because advanced readers tend to be careful;
- information about hidden parameters should be researched in Metalink, or with Support, first before use;
- impact of hidden parameters should be evaluated in a test environment, not in a debate.
That said, this one is well discussed in note 387394.1 ]:)

SQL versions with cursor_sharing=similar

Hello,
We have a Peoplesoft DB and we have been obliged to use cursor_sharing=similar to solve some of our problems. We have just noticed that with Oracle *9.2.0.7*, when a table is partitioned, many versions of the same sql are created in the SGA. Here is the demo
CREATE TABLE T5
ID    NUMBER(2),
NAME VARCHAR2(15 BYTE)
PARTITION BY RANGE (ID)
PARTITION P1 VALUES LESS THAN (10),
PARTITION P2 VALUES LESS THAN (20),
PARTITION P3 VALUES LESS THAN (30),
PARTITION P_MAXVALUE VALUES LESS THAN (MAXVALUE));
alter session set cursor_sharing=similar;
select count(*) from t5 where id = 1;
select count(*) from t5 where id = 10;
select count(*) from t5 where id = 30;
select count(*) from t5 where id = 5;
select count(*) from t5 where id = 15;Now we check the SGA:
SQL> select hash_value,CHILD_NUMBER,EXECUTIONS,sql_text from v$sql where SQL_TEXT like '%t5%';
HASH_VALUE CHILD_NUMBER EXECUTIONS SQL_TEXT
602987019            0          1 select count(*) from t5 where id = :"SYS_B_0"
602987019            1          1 select count(*) from t5 where id = :"SYS_B_0"
602987019            2          1 select count(*) from t5 where id = :"SYS_B_0"
602987019            3          1 select count(*) from t5 where id = :"SYS_B_0"
602987019            4          1 select count(*) from t5 where id = :"SYS_B_0"Is there a way to avoid all these child cursors?
Has anyone had this same problem before?

Well, I just tried it, but this time with a table NOT partitioned, no histograms and no range operation, with Oracle version 10.2.0.1 and I got the same results:

I think with setting CURSOR_SHARING=similar again, If you try the query with JOB='ANALYST' then it will use the plan 3727168047 and substitute the bind with 'ANALYST'.

What is the reason behind that ...If you have noticed, the executions for the hash plan 2065003705 are 0 after the shared_pool flushing. It seems that with flush shared_pool, oracle doesn't flush the queries with literals and just reset their stats. As literals are always the culprits.

Is there any server from vmware which supports OSGI and works similar to all functionalities of vFabric tc server?

Hi,
We have currently built web applications which are in complience with OSGI and runs on FUSE ESB. Recently we have gone through vFabric tc server which is based on open source Apache tomcat. Is there any other server from vmware which supports OSGI and works similar to all functionalities of vFabric tc server?
I am not sure whether this is the right place to post this question. Please let me know if i have to post this question anywhere else?
Thanks,
Prathap

Hi Prabhat Y,
Per my understanding that you are doing the migration from SSRS 2005 to SSRS 2008 and now you are re-creating the 3500 subscriptions in the SSRS 2008, so you want to the new created subscription in SSRS 2008 will be pause and not execute at this time, right?
Generally, we have several method to pause the subscription processing, please reference to details information below:
When you created an subscription, an new Sql Server Agent job will be created too, so you can you can just uncheck the 'enabled' checkbox in the job properties as below to disable the execution of the job,you can also stop the SQL Server Agent Services
manually, all your subscriptions will stop running:
More information, Please reference to:
How to temporarily stop SSRS subscriptions
You can also disable a Shared Data Source, pause a Shared Schedule to pause the subscription processing.
Pause Report and Subscription Processing
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

How to export iPhoto Album in iMAC and have similar folder structure(with Timestamps) which can be viewed in finder

How to export iPhoto Album in iMAC and have similar folder structure(with Timestamps) which can be viewed in finder
In simple terms, I wanted to view the photos in Windows system, similar strcture of iPhotos

If you want to copy all of your photos to a Windows machine and have them in folders representing the iPhoto Events the were in quickly and easily just do the following:
1 - open the library with the Finder as shown in this screenshot:
2 - COPY the Originals/Masters folder to the Desktop.
3 - copy the Originals/Masters folder to the Windows machine.
This will give you all of your original image file in their Event folder on the Windows machine.
NOTE: With iPhoto 8 or newer the Event folders in the Masters folder will be titled by date (EXIF) if imported from a camera. If imported from a folder the event folder will have the same title as the source folder. If imported singularly or in a group without a folder the title will be a date, either the EXIF date or import date.
With iPhoto 7 (08) and earlier the Event folders in the Originals folder will have the same title as the Event has in the library.
This method would be quicker but not provide the additional metadata you might have added in iPhoto like keywords, titles, descriptions that exporting out of iPhoto with Format=JPEG and the checkboxes selected to include keywords, titles, places, etc, checked.

I bought a mic for my ipod touch 2nd gen and the mic works yet when its plugged in the speakers dont work, meaning i cant hear, so skype and other similar apps are un-useable, is there a way in which the mic and speakers will both work together?

Looking at the details for this mic, it appears that the app has to have the option to use the internal specak when a mic is plugged into the headphone jack. Specifically:
NOTE: When MityMic is plugged into your iPod/iPhone you won’t be able to use the onboard speaker for sound output. You must remove the MityMic then play back your recordings. (The Skype app has an option to enable the onboard speaker even when the mic is plugged in, so you could use MityMic for placing Skype calls. However most other apps do not have this function.)

Problemas com o CURSOR_SHARING = SIMILAR

Olá,
Sou DBA de uma empresa que utiliza o Oracle 10G, e recentemente realizei uma alteração (para efeito de teste) do parâmetro CURSOR_SHARING. Alterei ele do seu valor default "EXACT" para o valor "SIMILAR".
Com a alteração, a taxa de hard parse diminuiu, e obtive um alto índice de reuso de query (ou scripts de modo geral).
Os testes estavam indo bem, quando és que surge uma consulta semelhante a seguinte:
select 'teste' as campo, 'Y' as tipo from dual
union
select 'teste1', 'N' from dual;
Com o parâmetro alterado, essa consulta foi interpretada como:
select '"SYS_B_0"' as campo, '"SYS_B_1"' as tipo from dual
union
select '"SYS_B_2"' as campo, '"SYS_B_3"' as tipo from dual;
Até então, tudo ocorreu conforme esperado, porém na aplicação que faz uso dessa base existia um teste:
<%
'Código ASP
if cstr(rs.fields("tipo")) = "Y" then
<< fazer algo >>
else
<< fazer algo >>
end if
%>
Mesmo quando o retorno da consulta era = "Y", nunca entre no if (e eu testei a consulta e ela realmente retornava Y).
Quando fui verificar o retorno pela aplicação, o campo "tipo" retornava "Y ¢¥¥├ò", ou seja, com um lixo após o valor.
Rodei a mesma consulta pelo sqlplus, e realmente o valor do retorno era apenas "Y".
Tentei alterar o provider da string de conexão do banco para ver se era esse o problema, mas o mesmo persistiu. O Oracle Client no servidor da aplicação é o 10G.
Não consegui entender o erro, e em todas as documentações e livros que pesquisei, os problemas oriundos da alteração desse parâmetro acarreta apenas em queda de performance (devido a por exemplo reutilizar um plano NÃO otimizado para uma consulta).
Esse problema inviabilizou a alteração que se comportara muito bem em outros aspectos.
Entendo que quando pensamos em reuso através de bind variables, associamos apenas à alterações dos parâmetros na seleção dos dados e não na projeção como é o caso citado.
Alguém tem alguma ideia sobre o que pode ser e se tem alguma alteração que possa ser feita para conseguir o ganho da performance dos "soft parses"?
Grato desde já.

Hi,
I'm a DBA for a company that uses Oracle 10G (release 10.2.0.3), and recently realized a change (for the purpose of testing) on parameter CURSOR_SHARING. I changed it to value "SIMILAR".
With the change, the rate decreased hard parse, and got a high degree of reuse of query (and scripts in general).
The tests were going well, when the query below arose:
select 'test' as campo, 'Y' as tipo from dual
union
select 'test1', 'N' from dual;
With the changed parameter, this query was interpreted as:
select '"SYS_B_0"' as campo, '"SYS_B_1"' as tipo from dual
union
select '"SYS_B_2"', '"SYS_B_3"' from dual;
Until then, everything went as expected, but the application that uses the database has a test:
<%
'ASP code
if CStr (rs.Fields ("tipo")) = "Y" then
<< something >>
else
<< something >>
end if
%>
Even when the query was returning = "Y", never executed the if clause (and I tested the query and it really returned "Y").
When I check the return by the application, the field "tipo" returned "Y ¢ ¥ ò ¥ ├", with a dirty code after.
I execute the same query through sqlplus, and really the value of the return was only "Y".
I tried changing the provider in the string connection of the database to see if that was the problem, but it persisted. The Oracle Client on the application server is 10G.
I could not understand the error, and all documentations and books I researched, the problems arising from the change of this parameter causes only drop in performance (eg due to reuse a NOT optimized plan for a query).
This problem prevented the change that had behaved very well in other respects.
I understand that when we think of reuse through bind variables, only associate the changes of the parameters in the selection of the data and not in the projection as in the case cited.
Anyone have any idea about what can be and if you have any changes that may be made to achieve the performance gain of the "soft parses"?
Thankful now.

ORA 01745 (invalid host/bind variable name) and CURSOR_SHARING

For the past couple of weeks, a user has had an issue with an application in the production environment only. I've had the vendor looking at it but they were limited since it could not be reproduced in our DEV environment. I finally had some time to look into it myself and I found the problem SQL statement. The issue boils down to this, "SELECT 'N' INDICATOR FROM DUAL;" returns an ORA-01745 error. If I rename "INDICATOR" to "INDICATO" or if I add an "AS" before the alias, the query works fine. However, it would require the vendor to change the code in the application which is not likely (not for free at least). However, I also found if I change the CURSOR_SHARING from SIMILAR to EXACT, then it works. This was the reason for the difference between DEV & PRD. PRD is set to SIMILAR while DEV is set to EXACT. The prospect of setting PRD to EXACT to appealing as I'm afraid it may affect performance in other areas. But, in the end, that may be the only solution. However, I was hoping there might be some other parameter that I am not aware of that may also fix this issue. I am running 10.2.0.4. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure.
To what extent can you reproduce the problem? Can you isolate it to the db only via sql*plus? Or does this other software need to be involved?
You may to do some end-to-end tracing including client/driver side.
If you raise with Oracle Support, you may find out more.
I take it that the software doesn't really issue this statement:
SELECT 'N' INDICATOR FROM DUAL;" and it's part of a bigger statement?

Soliciting advice on Norton 2007-2008 (and other similar utilities) compatibility....

...with the ThinkVantage software suite...
Just got my t61 (3g, XP Pro) last week and I now want an internet protection software suite that will not slow down my system (as much as NIS does). So my questions are:
- Does anyone know of compatibility issues with products from Kepersky, AVG, etc and the ThinkVantage suite that is preloaded from Lenovo?
- Will a simple Control Panel "uninstall" eliminate any trace of the Norton software that could still interfere with my operating system?
- What else am I not thinking about?

Hello,
In my experience, many anti-virus programs leave "remnants" of themselves after automatic removal such as signature update schedulers, file system filter and NDIS stack device drivers, services and so forth. It is advisable to run the manufacturer's "manual" uninstall utility or follow their instructions to remove any objects left on the system post-uninstall.
Symantec provides a utility called the Symantec Norton Removal Tool which does this for their software. The latest version can always be found at http://www.symantec.com/symnrt/. Other vendors have similar tools.

Please dont delete this message, im not promoting illegal activities!
I just want to know how to produce a LAF similar to the one used in sub7, it looks very modern looking and i like the quick response. Can someone advise me how to produce my own LAF?
thanks

Why the extra post, when you already have one response on your earlier post?
