OWB Cube load SQL tuning

I have a OWB mapping which takes input from a staging table and add those row to the Cube. The underlying table behind cube is a relational fact table joined with the dimensions using foreign keys. Explain plan behind the query has a rather high cost and the mapping runs for 30 minutes. If you see below, in step 17, the cost goes up to 1,396,573 which is also where nested loops start to appear. Can somebody provide general pointers to tune this query?

Hi Emile,
regading extracting data from MSSQL with OWB on Unix platform (using Generic Connectivity):
Re: SQLServer access from AIX Warehouse builder
Re: OWB on Solaris Connectivity with SQL SERVER on Windows
We want to load aprox. 100 million records a day.
I've read some articles about this and the advise was to dump the data from SQL Server to files and load the files with OWB.100 million records per day is not a problem for daily extracting from MSSQL Server if you have 1-2 hour.
In my opinion dumping to text file is a bad practice and is unnecessary if customer don't have special requirements (for example for security reason).
SQL Server source table and a Oracle target table without any difficult transformationsIn my opninion the best way process data from MSSQL is to extract data to staging area (schema) on Oracle DB with mappings as simple as possible (ONLY filters, without any join), and most of data processing prefom in Staging area or during moving from staging to DWH.
Also look at OWB user guide (how to use Generic Connectivity in OWB)

  • Loading SQL Tuning Sets

    On a 10.2.0.4 database, is it possible to load SQL Tuning sets with SQL from a text file? I can't find anything in the documentation mentioning this but I could have simply missed it and this facility would be very useful to us.
    Our reporting tool is MicroStrategy which operates by building lots of temporary tables: extracting the SQL via Top Activity EM page will put the CTAS statement into the tuning set which (I believe) is ignored by SQL Access Advisor - extracting the sql to a text file, editting to remove the "create table as" and executing in order to load the tuning set is very long winded for a set of queries - at least being able to load the tuning set directly with a set of SQL select statements directly from a text file would help significantly.
    Many thanks for any advice
    Pete

    I did not see a direct way to create the STS from a text file. From the docs:
    "The standard sources for populating an STS are the workload repository, another STS, or the cursor cache"
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/sql_tune.htm#i34915
    But you could try a couple of things:
    1) create one tuning task per statement, using DBMS_SQLTUNE.CREATE_TUNING_TASK, which can use plain text as input: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14211/sql_tune.htm#CHDJDHGE
    2) create the STS with queries from cursor cache: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_sqltun.htm#i1010615
    Both approaches needs some PL/SQL programming, but it can be useful if you can identify your SQL statements some way.
    Regards.

  • Need Help in sql tuning in EXADATA environment

    I am uploadin the sql with its current explain plan, this sql in Prd database is executing in 6-10 mins and we need to improve this sql perf to 1-2 mins as the requirement from business team.
    I am giving some backgroud about this sql tuning requirement, this sql is newly developed in and currently is in UAT phase, we don't have much option for tuning code here since the sql is tool generated through COGNOS DataMart tool, options are there to look into from DBA end with plan level or creating indexes on suitible columns to reduce i/o in minimizing the rows traversing by the sql.
    Is anybody can help me out here?

  • Build essbase cube using Sql query.....

    Hi Team, Can we build dimensions as well as load data into essbase cubes using sql query generated from cognos cube. If so , please guide me the procedure

    I'm not sure about cognos, if you can create an ODBC connection you can try using that in SQL load rules and see if that works.

  • SQL Tuning Advisor (STA) recommends indexes that already exists?

    I have enabled the STA to run twice a week, while we are going live with a new application in a new database. I want to insure we have good performance as the load goes up. I was not involved in the original design, which there not not much of, I've discovered. Since we are licensed for it, it seemed like a safe thing to turn on.
    The STA ran last night and the report tells me it looked at 736 SQLs with findings, 143 without findings, and skipped 0.
    What puzzles me is that, in the "Statistics Finding Summary", it's reporting stale stats on some tables which I know are up to date, as I ran stats on them yesterday and there were no updates to them.
    Worse, in the "Index Finding Summary", it reports indexes needed that already do, in fact, exist.
    Is there some reason for this? Is there some way to get the STA to be aware of these and avoid the erroneous findings so that I can concentrate on real ones?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

  • OBIEE 11g BI Publisher; New Data Set Creation Error "Failed to load SQL"

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a new SQL data set (from a client machine). I use "query builder" to build the data set. But when I click "OK", it fires the error "Failed to load SQL".
    But strangely, if connect to the OBIEE server's desktop and create the data set it works without any issues. I wonder this would be a firewall issue. If so what are the ports I should open.
    It's a enterprise installation. And we have already open 9703, 9704, and 9706.
    Has anyone came across such a situation?

    Talles,
    First of all you might have more chance of getting a response over in the BIP forum. Other than that all I can think of is: is your MS SQL Server running with mixed mode auth?

  • Can we show some user defined message while cube loading in OBIEE

    Hi All,
    Currently we are building OBIEE dashboards from Essbase ASO Cube as datasource.
    During Essbase Cube loading ,Essbase will "Disable all Administrative Commands".In this mean time,When users are trying to run the dashboards,OBIEE will thorws severe error.
    Can we dispaly some user defined message something like "Cube is loading.Please wait...." or any other alternative.
    Time taken to load the cube is 1hr.Please suggest
    Thanks,
    SatyaB

    Yes, You can better try replacing the whole OBIEE dashboard with a custom message. Whenver the load happens...you shud trigger or set a flag value to 'Y'. Using guided navigation when Flag value is matched to Y...right a JS to replace the whole dashboard.
    [html]
    [head]
    [script type="text/javascript"]var strStatus="@1";
    if(strStatus =='Y')
    location.replace('saw.dll?PortalPages&_scid=in6lPJnWWNk&PortalPath=/shared/Framework/_portal/Cube%20Status%20&Page=Cube%20Status');
    [script]

    Replace square bracket with curly brackets in above replace code..

  • SQL Tuning for Exadata

    Hi,
    I would like to know any SQL tuning methods specific to Oracle exadata so that they could improve the performance of the database?
    I am aware that oracle exadata runs with Oracle 11g, but i would like to know wheather there is any tuning scope w.r.t to SQL's on exadata?
    regards
    sunil

    Well there are some things that are very different about Exadata. All the standard Oracle SQL tuning you have learned already should not be forgotten as Exadata is running standard 11g database code, but there are many optimizations that have been added that you should be aware of. At a high level, if you are doing OLTP type work you should be trying to make sure that you take advantage of Exadata Smart Flash Cache which will significantly speed up your small I/O's. But long running queries are where the big benefits show up. The high level tuning approach for them is as follows:
    1. Check to see if you are getting Smart Scans.
    2. If you aren't, fix what ever is preventing them from being used.
    We've been involved in somewhere between 25-30 DB Machine installations now and in many cases, a little bit of effort changes performance dramatically. If you are only getting 2 to 3X improvement over your previous platform on these long running queries you are probably not getting the full benefit of the Exadata optimizations. So the first step is learning how to determine if you are getting Smart Scans or not and on what portions of the statement. Wait events, session statistics, V$SQL, SQL Monitoring are all viable tools that can show you that information.

  • Permissions needed for Applying SQL Tuning Sets/SQL Plans 11g?

    What permission are needed for a user to apply/activate sql tuning sets (sql plans) in 11g? The user can capture and move the the sql tuning sets from a 10g database to an 11g database but is getting "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges" when trying to activate/apply the sqlplans in 11g.
    The user has:

    The user is an administrator for our Data Warehouse team but they do not have sysdba priviliges.
    Do you also know of a good white paper that covers the step by step instructions and permissions needed for aquiring and applying/activating sqlplans?
    If more information is needed in order to respond please advise.

    My suggestions:
    . Try to use UNION ALL instead of UNION. If you can eliminate UNION all together and flatten the query that will be even better.
    2. You are using the function in a select statement xxdl_eam_util_pkg.xxdl_eam_get_resource_code(pf.person_id, bd.department_id)This will slow the performance. Try to get rid of this. Function calls in select are expensive.
    3. Dont use the parallel hint and optimize. It wont get you consistent results.
    4. Use of per_all_people_F is expensive. The UNION again complicates things. per_all_people_f has to be scanned 2x times.
    5. Where does the application get the values for department id? Whether user inputs a value or whether it is hard coded . Most likely user will input value and each time it may be different. If that is the case, then you may be hitting bind peeking. There is not much hope for this. Not much can be done. Whatever you do this can happen. Only way is to pin the plan if you can use literals instead of binds. But that is not possible I think.
    6. AND DECODE(bd.disable_date,null, sysdate,bd.disable_date) >= sysdate
    AND DECODE(br.disable_date,null, sysdate,br.disable_date) >= sysdate
    AND DECODE(wo.disable_date,null, sysdate,wo.disable_date) >= sysdate
    Those statements, if you can rewrite would be good. If there are indexes on any of those columns, they are more than likely not used.
    7. Are the outer joins really required. If not required remove them.
    8. There is a 'WITH' clause in 10g . Try to use that for your subqueries or main query where applicable. It will save some I/O.
    9. Try to tune without any hints. Remove the first rows as well and see the difference.
    I know that the sql is definately bad and can be rewritten but I am not able to exactly write it for them.
    Any inputs or thoughts?

    Hi,
    Any suggestions for reading on Sql tuning
    I am looking for a practical book with solutions .
    And books showing the Sql internal workings ?Take a look on Amazon some Jonathan Lewis books.

  • SQL Tuning using Enterprise manager in oracle 10g

    Hi,
    In oracle 10g you have the enterprise manager which can be used to tune sql statements using the SQL Tuning ADvisor and SQL access advisor.
    I believe in oracle 10g the process of SQL Tuning is slightly easier using the Enterprise Manager ...so if some one could explain me that process...
    Again thanking you in advance

    At a minimum I think you should search the forums for SQL Tuning because I know there is some sort of sticked post identifying the GENERAL steps you should follow to tune a query. Us being here trying to help cannot tune a blanket SQL statement for the most part that is given to us. We don't know so many things that it is hard to form a cohesive answer. Some questions that arise are:
    1. What version of Oracle are you using?
    2. What are the table structures?
    3. What is the question you are truly trying to answer?
    4. What is the explain plan saying?
    5. What is your tuning goal (faster execution? lower I/O?)?
    5. etc.....
    At a minimum it appears that you are using the NVL function a lot and I would probably wager a guess that it is preventing you from using indexes on all those ID columns, if there are any.
    Hope this helps!

  • SQL tuning for a query

    Hello Gurus,
    I have 2 tables. One with a million records and the other with 50,000 records.
    Both have an account id column. The first table contains all the customer accounts and the second table has all the bad debt accounts.
    My problem is I need to update the status column in the first table for all the bad debt records from the second table.
    As I’m still a beginner in SQL tuning, can someone please help me write this query effi ciently considering the table sizes.
    tables description:
    SQL> desc customer
    Name Null? Type
    ACNTNO NUMBER(8)
    STATUS VARCHAR2(6)
    SQL> desc badcustomer
    Name Null? Type
    ACNTNO NUMBER(8)
    The sql I could come up with is:
    update customer outer
    set status='closed'
    where acntno exists (select 'X'
    from badcustomer
    where acntno=outer.acntno);
    Thanks for taking time to read this post.
