Oracle 10g features

Hi
Please provide some information on Oracle 10g features.
Thank you

Hi,
Are you looking for all features or new features??
For all features (in case you're new to Oracle), I guess you need to go through the Oracle Documentation for Oracle 10g [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/index.htm]
In case you're looking for new features, go to [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14214/toc.htm]
Thanks,

Performance doubt: Manual tuning or Oracle tuning features?

Hi all,
I'm reading some docs regarding performance, and most of then mention and recommend the use of the Oracle tuning features, as SQL Access Advisor, SQL Performance Analyzer, SQL Tuning Sets and so on. What i want to know from the most experienced dbas here is if you use these performance features from Oracle, or if you prefer to perform tuning tasks "by hand"?. By hand i mean checking the explain plan, checking statistics, index seletivity, histograms and so on.
Thanks in advance.

Another simple doubt/question: What would be your tuning strategy? For example, what a commonly do is:
1) Check the object statistics.Yes, make sure statistics are current. The tricky part is that I have heard enough stories (not seen this myself) about new stats messing up performance that I prefer to save off the old stats before generating new ones - just in case
2) Check if the columns used in the predicates are indexed, and if not, i check the seletivity of then to see if an index creation would be efficient.This is probably my most effective tuning technique. I check the selectivity but create the index anyway to see what happens with it in place. Sometimes even though a new index is created the optimizer won't use it, and in other cases the index does not help performance even when the optimizer uses it. Any changes must be carefully checked.
3) If it is possible, create a materialized view with the query rewrite feature.I use MVs, but as a later resort. I prefer instead to recode SQL if possible to get better results to avoid having yet another database object to keep track of. With luck the optimizer can use the automated query rewrite capability to avoid changing the original SQL.

4) If it is a RAC env, i try to increase the CACHE value of the sequencesI have not worked on many RAC environments and when I have did not have much to do with sequences. I did learn that select list inline views often perform poorly compared to equivalent queries using table joins (not specifically a RAC issue)
>
5) Check the Memory and Segment Advisors and hit ratios, taking the necessary procedures, if the advisors indicate so.I am not usually given privileges to use these tools. I have gotten good results from the SQL tuning advisor when I can use it but have seen it miss things so I prefer to manually analyze SQL.
>
6) After all of this, i would try to tune the query by rewriting it. I leave this as a last option because generally you must know the data/env of the company that you are allocated. If you don't know the env very well, you can make bad recommendations about a specific
query.Doing the rewrite is something I do earlier in the process due to the fact that I rarely get DBA privilege on my projects and don't get access to some of the tools you mentioned. I can (hopefully) control SQL so I focus on it. Sometimes I cannot control SQL and have to rely on materailzed views, indexes, and other environmental factors to help SQL run faster.
>
OBS: All of this is done in parallel with the Statspack/AWR report "on hand"AWR is a great tool to use for tuning. OEM (which I rarely get access to) is another.

Sp2-0575: Use of oracle SQL feature not in sql 92 entry level.

Hi,
While logging to sqlplus I'm getting the following message
"sp2-0575: Use of oracle SQL feature not in sql 92 entry level."
and login is successful, but I'm not able to generate next value from the sequence .
t says no rows selected when i request
for nextval a
EX: select mySeq.nextval from dual; (mySeq is sequence)
Thanx,
Ravi.

What has happened is that someone has enabled the Oracle feature called as FIPS flagger.
This is a feature that Oracle provides to you if you plan to write SQL code that should be portable
to other RDBMS systems. IF you enable this flagger and use a feature which is not in the SQL standard,
Oracle will complain that use of this feature will make your application Oracle dependent, and you may not
be able to run this application against any other RDBMS.
To disable this for your SQL*Plus session do this:
SQL> set flagger off
SQL>
Once you do this it will allow you to use all SQL commands including Oracle specific extensions.

How to use all oracle text features under ifs?

i'd like to know that is possible to use a oracle text features like a Theme Capabilities to do a classification when documents its incoming.....

You will probably need to use dynamic SQL.
See the discussion at:
http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/ask/f?p=4950:8:::::F4950_P8_DISPLAYID:53140567326263
(while the question deals with SQLX, the answer is the same - Pro*C can't parse all SQL, but dynamic SQL is not parsed by Pro*C)

Is practising on Oracle OLAP features free with Oracle 11g EE?

Hi,
Is practising on Oracle OLAP features free with Oracle 11g EE??
Information found in Internet:
- Oracle Corporation markets the Oracle Database OLAP Option as an extra-cost option to supplement the "Enterprise Edition" of its database.
- Oracle Database OLAP is there pre-installed along with the rest of Oracle Database EE. You just need to license it for use on the DB Machine when you choose to use it.
- Oracle OLAP is a world class multidimensional analytic engine embedded in Oracle Database 11g.
Please confirm if I can try some OLAP features in my office where I have Oracle 11g EE installed as I have been asked to do an initial POC?
Regards,
Sudhir

Hi there,
I believe that the OLAP license falls under the developer license on OTN - http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/testcontent/standard-license-088383.html
You should contact your local Oracle sales rep if you are still unsure

Oracle Directory feature

Hi,
We are migrating from standalone Oracle 8i to Oracle 11g RAC. In the 8i database our system uses the Oracle Directory feature. It uses this Directory feature as some files are FTPied and stored in the Oracle SYSTEM.
As we are migrating to Oracle 11g RAC(two node), how do we handle these Directory feature? Should we go for NAS as a shared storage or can we go for Oracle ASM Cluster file system or any other options?
Thanks!

I suppose the question is about Oracle Directory database object, ie 'CREATE DIRECTORY ...'
The shared storage is required if you want to use directories in the RAC, ie all nodes must see the mountpoint as a filesystem. Any shared storage technology can be used which allows simultaneous access to file system , it really depends what is already is implemented in your environment. For instance if NFS server is already there, then its quite easy to create a mountpoint (provided that drives are allocated)

HOW to use new Oracle 9i Features in Pro*C

Hi All,
I am an Pro*C developer. I tried using Oracle 9i Features like RIGHT OUTER JOIN, FULL OUTER JOIN, CASE ... etc inside proc program. But I am getting error while compiling it.
My sample code:

FROM EMP A FULL OUTER JOIN DEPT B
ON A.DEPT_NO = B.DEPT_NO;
EXEC SQL OPEN CARD_CUR;

You will probably need to use dynamic SQL.

9i New Features Doc???

I am planning the rollout of Discoverer. Currently we have 9iAS 1.0.2.2 installed which correlates to Disco 4i. I am looking to see if there are compelling reasons upgrade to Disco 9i (v5), but can not find any documents that list the new features. I will need to justify based on Disco features not 9iAS R2.
Has anyone seen a doc like this, or have you made your own comparison and willing to share?
thx,
r.b.

Check out the following URL to the Oracle Forms 9i technical pages on OTN. I'm sure you'll find what you need here.

Oracle 9i feature not available in Oracle 10g

The following query does work in Oracle 9.2.0.4 (and 9.2.0.5), but does not work in Oracle 10.1.0.3 (Linux)
SELECT *

The error message
ORA-29913: error in executing contains callout

Does anybody know, when this feature is available in Oracle 10, too ? Already in 10.1.0.4 ? Or in Oracle 10g Release 2 ?
Thanks,
Ulf

I assume you have Windows on the client. The "Drivers" page of the ODBC_DSA should list all installed drivers. You require:
name= Oracle ODBC Driver
version= 8.01.07.00 (or something similar)
company= Oracle Corporation DO NOT USE the Microsoft one.
If this does not show, then either it was not included in the Oracle Client installation or you have not rebooted after the Oracle Client installation; the ODBC driver is not visible until rebooted.

Oracle 8i online docs web pages not working in IE5.5?

Up until about a week ago, I was able to browse the online docs for Oracle 8i, using Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 on Windows 2000 SP2. Now, I am getting incomplete web page loads and/or pages that repeatedly reload themselves. I do not experience this problem browsing the same pages with Netscape 6.2 on the same PC. The only relevant change on my PC I can think of was application of Service Pack 2 to Internet Explorer 5.5.
An example URL is http://technet.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/server.817/a76965/c01intro.htm#12981 - this page loads only down to the section "Data Integrity". Other pages exhibit similar behaviour. I don't experience this problem using IE5.5 with any other Web sites.
I have tried clearing all cookies, cached files, etc. to no avail.
Any help or suggestion will be appreciated.

Philip Steiner

Hi,
You need to follow below steps:
1) cd $JAVA_TOP
    2) zip -r customprod.zip. Where the list of all directory paths are present, relative to $JAVA_TOP, for custom application's java files at non-standard location.
    3) Generate & sign customprod.jar file.
Command: adjava oracle.apps.ad.jri.adjmx -areas $JAVA_TOP/customprod.zip -outputFile $JAVA_TOP/customprod.jar -jar $CONTEXT_NAME 1 CUST jarsigner -storePass -keyPass
    4) Delete temporary customprod.zip.
Command: rm $JAVA_TOP/customprod.zip
    5) Follow below steps to make the custom jar available for WebLogic
a) Take a back-up of existing /admin/template/ebsProductManifest_xml.tmp
b) Modify /admin/template/ebsProductManifest_xml.tmp to add entry for customprod.jar (after customall.jar)
c) Run AutoConfig
d) Bounce the Mid-tier services
