Query running forever

Hi ,
When i am running query it is running forever and i am not able to get the results. But , iam able to get the results by using the LISTCUBE transaction very fastly for the same selection criteria.
When I observed in SM66 , The work process is always trying to Read the table /bic/03035
appreciate your suggessions and valuble solutions

Hi,
I had the same problem yesterday - the only difference was that SM66 showed a different table name.
My problem was solved by getting the Database team to analyze that particular table. The DB logs showed that the table had been Analyzed a long time back. By getting the table analyzed the execution time for the query was cut down from 15 minutes to 30 seconds.
See if this helps in your scenario as well. The table name that you have given does not appear to be the full table name - enable long text in SM66 to display the table name in full and ask you DB team to check when that table was last analyzed - if it was a long time back then get then to analyze it again and see if it improves the query performance.
Hope it helps,
Regards,
Nikhil

Query runs forever when using selection on line item dim

we have a cube zcube which has po number as a line item dimension .
everymonth users run queries this cube using po number as selection
criterai and using a wild card search on this field . every time
queries have run fine . however , this month when we try to do so
the query runs forever and no results are returned . i also tried
listcubing with similar selection but it also did not return any results .
our production system has lot of data . i tried in test system it worked fine
i checked the cube for compression and indices in production , they look fine
can anyone think of anything that could have gone wrong ? also did rsrv tests ..
but all come green
we have not done any developments on this cube , however we have shifted to
a new hardware in the past month . can anyone think of any reasons ?
anything that can help me catch the issue ? all suggestions welcome

Not sure,
Are you saying that you need both the counts seperately? or a combined count?
how are you joining alpha and beta tables? what is the join condition?
you need to do something like this,
SELECT COUNT(CASE WHEN
                    (A.col1 = 'Pete' AND SUBSTR(A.col2,,1,12)=SUBSTR(B.col2,,1,13))
                 OR ( A.col1 != 'Pete' AND SUBSTR(A.col2,,1,15)=SUBSTR(B.col2,,1,15))
                THEN 1 ELSE 0
             END)
FROM alpha A, beta b
WHERE alpha.join_cloumn= beta.join_columnG.

Query running forever..please help ?

I am running the following query on my Oracle 10g db.
select count(*) from port p where p.ne not in (Select distinct ne from network);The table port has 9 million records and the subquery Select distinct ne from network returns 85K records.
I need to get the result but for some reason the query is running for a long time without giving the result.
Can i Correct/Optimize this query for faster results.
Note : ne column is the Fkey in port table
Help highy appreciated.
thx

Query runs for ever

I have three summary tables which are yearly,monthly and daily. The yearly table has year and some aggreagted facts. The monthly table has year,month and some aggregated facts while day table has year,month and day and some aggregated facts.
I ran a Query on yearly table and monthly table with a join on year for these fields
Year(year from yearly table)
month and some aggregated facts (monthly table). This query runs forever. But if I pull all these fields from monthly table it runs fast. Can I join on year to pull the data. I dont have any keys in these tables.

Query from different tables:
SELECT
PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_YEAR.DEPT_AIRPORT,
PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_YEAR.ARR_AIRPORT,
(PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_YEAR.DATE_YEAR),
PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_MONTH.AVG_AIRB,
(PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_MONTH.DATE_MONTH)
FROM
PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_YEAR,
PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_MONTH,
PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_DAY
WHERE
( PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_YEAR.DATE_YEAR=PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_DAY.DATE_YEAR )
AND ( PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_DAY.DATE_YEAR=PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_MONTH.DATE_YEAR )
AND
PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_YEAR.DEPT_AIRPORT = 'ATL'
AND
PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_YEAR.ARR_AIRPORT = 'JFK'
AND
(PMAC.ACT_ALL_SUM_YEAR.DATE_YEAR) In ( '2001','2002','2003' )

)These are two queries which I was working on. The first query takes too much time to run and it runs fast on the second query. How can I optimise the first query. Can we include any keys in these tables to make the query faster.

Datawarehouse job run forever and powershell doesn't allow to enable

It seems that my datawarehouse jobs was running forever without any report producing. I check the jobs enabled and it tell "no" every job except MPSyncJob. Every job status is running as "running" or "not started". I tried to enable the datawarehouse jobs
by powershell cmdlets. When I ran Get-SCDWJob or Enable-SCDWJob the error always appear as following.

Any suggestion? I stuck at here for one week now.

I have the same problem with the parser error before eof and unable to retrieve job list but when i try:
get-scdwjob -jobname dwmaintenance -computername MySmServer -dwserver MyDwServer
I get:
A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'dwserver'
I have a feeling that something needs an update and/or is mismatched but I don't know what or where to start.

Query running too long on a partitioned table

Hello,
I'm trying to run the following query on a 73 million row table, but the query keeps running and running without returning any result within a reasonable amount of time.
select *
from svcdepot.service_log l
where dbms_lob.instr(l.service_log, 'SALESFORCE_ROLE_CREATED') > 0 and rownum < 2
and create_date > sysdate - .1
this table has a normal index on the create_date table and is also partitioned on create_date. The partition names are like PARTITION20120316 and PARTITION20120311. It says values less than TIMESTAMP' 2012-03-16 00:00:00' and TIMESTAMP' 2012-03-11 00:00:00', respectively. Could someone please tell me how I can modify the query so that it doesn't run forever? It seems to struggle against the create_date column (while I was troubleshooting). I just need one record with that SALESFORCE_ROLE_CREATED text in that clob column.
Thanks!

Query runs fine in 9i but results to ORA-01652 unable to extend temp in 10g

Hi,
We are having issues in running a SQL query in 10g. In 9i, it runs fine with no problems but when run in 10g, It takes forever and the temp tablespace grows very large upto 60GB until we get ORA-01652 error due to lack of disk space. This does not occur in 9i, where query runs in only 20 mins and does not take up temp that big. 9i version is 9.2.0.8. 10g is 10.2.0.3

Query running slow when using case inside when

Hi All,
I am in the process of creating a query as per the following conditions:
select count(*) from Alpha A, Beta B
where
(case
when
A.col1='Pete' and substr(A.col2,1,12)=substr(B.col2,1,12)
then 1
else
-- for all other cases when A.col1 is not equal to 'Pete', substr 1-15 needs to be checked on A and B
when A.col1 != 'Pete' and substr(A.col2,1,15)=substr(B.col2,1,15)
then 1
else 0
end)=1
When i run the whole query together, it continues to run forever and i have to eventually kill it. However, when i run the 2 WHEN clauses seperately, it runs within a second and fetches me the correct data. What goes wrong while merging these two inside 2 WHEN clauses that it causes the query to drag?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

Not sure,
Are you saying that you need both the counts seperately? or a combined count?
how are you joining alpha and beta tables? what is the join condition?
you need to do something like this,
SELECT COUNT(CASE WHEN
                    (A.col1 = 'Pete' AND SUBSTR(A.col2,,1,12)=SUBSTR(B.col2,,1,13))
                 OR ( A.col1 != 'Pete' AND SUBSTR(A.col2,,1,15)=SUBSTR(B.col2,,1,15))
                THEN 1 ELSE 0
             END)
FROM alpha A, beta b
WHERE alpha.join_cloumn= beta.join_columnG.

0FISCPER - F4 never loads and runs forever

Hi All,
I am facing some sporadic issues with the 0FISCPER F4 option. Every time I select the F4 of the fiscal period it runs forever and I never get back any results. Now this query is on an ODS and the same 0FISCPER seems to be fine on another ODS or InfoCube.
Has anyone else faced this problem before, would appreciate any help and will award points.
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi,
Go to transaction rsa1 and search for a ODS where you know it's ok.
Double-click in it.
Right-click over 0FISCPER there and select choose specific properties.
Do the same with the ODS where it's not working.
Compare both and if different change it to be the same.
But if not, try to change to ODS where it's not working for value M - Master data element.
This will make it faster when pressing f4

SSRS 2008 R2 is extremely slow. The query runs in less than a second in the dataset designer but if you try to view the report it takes over 10 minutes. I have read this is a bug in SSRS 2008 R2. We installed the most recent patches and service packs.

SSRS 2008 R2 is extremely slow. The query runs in less than a second in the dataset designer but if you try to view the report it takes over 10 minutes. I have read this is a bug in SSRS 2008 R2. We installed the most recent patches and
service packs. Nothing we've done so far has fixed it and I see that I'm not the only person with this problem. However I don't see any answers either.

Hi Kim Sharp,
According to your description that when you view the report it is extremely slow in SSRS 2008 R2 but it is very fast when execute the query in dataset designer, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can‘t reproduce the issue. Obviously, it is the performance issue, rendering performance can be affected by a combination of factors that include hardware, number of concurrent users accessing reports, the amount
of data in a report, design of the report, and output format. If you have parameters in your report which contains many values in the list, the bad performance as you mentioned is an known issue on 2008 R2 and already have the hotfix:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2276203
Any issue after applying the update, I recommend you that submit a feedback at https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/
If you don’t have, you can do some action to improve the performance when designing the report. Because how you create and update reports affects how fast the report renders.
Actually, the Report Server ExecutionLog2 view contains reports performance data. You could make use of below query to see where the report processing time is being spent:
After you determine whether the delay time is in data retrieval, report processing, or report rendering:
use ReportServer
SELECT TOP 10 ReportPath,parameters,
TimeDataRetrieval + TimeProcessing + TimeRendering as [total time],
TimeDataRetrieval, TimeProcessing, TimeRendering,
ByteCount, [RowCount],Source, AdditionalInfo
FROM ExecutionLog2
ORDER BY Timestart DESC
Use below methods to help troubleshoot issues according to the above query result :

What are the ways to make Query run fast?

Hi Experts,
When a query runs slow, we generally go for creating an aggregate. My doubt is - what other things can be done to make a query run faster before creating an aggregate? What is the thumb rule to be carried out for creating an aggregate?
Regards,
Shreeem

Hi Shreem,
If you keep Query simple not complicate it with runtime calculations , it would be smooth. However as per business requirements we will have to go for it anyways mostly.
regarding aggregates:
Please do not use the standard proposal , it will give you hundreds based on std. rules , which consumes lots of space and adds up to load times. If you have users already using the Query and you are planning to tune it then go for the statistics tables:
1.RSDDSTAT_OLAP find the query with long runtimes get the Stepuid
2. RSDDSTAT_DM
3. RSDDSTATAGGRDEF - use the stepuid above to see which aggregate is necessary for which cube.
Another way to check ; check the users as in 1 to find the highest runtime users and find the last used bookmarks by user thru RSZWBOOKMARK for this query and check if the time matches and create the aggregates as in 3 above.
You can also Use Transaction RSRT > execute & debug (display stats ) - to create generic aggregates to support navigations for New queries and later refine as above.
Hope it helps .
Thnks
Ram

Thank you for the reaction. But is it recommended? Is it safe to keep it powered all night? It's a minimal consumption right?
I hope to get more details.

ITunes sync with Outlook 2013 preparing to sync runs forever

iTunes sync with Outlook 2013 preparing to sync runs forever, what is the problem?

I have updated addresses and names in the iPhone. When I sync with Outlook it takes the updated name portion, but does not pick up the address from the iPhone. The Whitepages app (pretty handy app) will update my iPhone contact list, but I cannot then transfer that information over to my Outlook contact list. This all needs to work together. Solutions?
