Question about the database

Is the database anything that can be manipulated outside of Lightroom? Just thought I'd ask...
Is there any database maintenance that needs to be done periodically? Any compressing or anything?

It's supposed to be a SQLite database, but the tools that come with Mac OS X to open them say that it isn't a database file or it is encrypted... at least how I have tryed to open them. Maybe I'm not using the right params, but it won't be strange if they modified the source code of the dbms to protect a little the database from outside tools, so...
For what I can see, you shouldn't need to do anything with the db outside LR.

  • Questions about the database connection

    hi all,
    I am developing a project with JDeveloper 10g and I created a database connection to my Oracle RAC database.
    However, whenever I start the project with the JDeveloper and I do a "netstat -an" with the command prompt window. I show there are over 100 connection ESTABLISHED to my database. I don't have any idea how this happens. The problem is since there are over 100 connection established, I couldn't run the project with the JDeveloper's embedded OC4J.
    Can anyone help me to fix this problem?

    I have set the Max connections to 30 in the connection-pool setting of my project in the Embedded OC4J Server Preferences, but it doesn't work.
    There are still over 100 connections to the database...

  • SUP - 2 questions about the CDB (cache database)

    Hi,
    I have 2 questions about the cache database and the cache groups:
    1 - How does the "On demand" cache group policy exactly works? I know that online cache group is without storing any data on the CDB making direct requests to de backend from the device, the DCN is based on updating from the backend, the scheduled is based on a time period, but I don't understand how the "on demand" exactly works, and why it has a time period too.
    2 - Is it possible to query the cache database table to check the data that SUP has stored? How can I do this?
    Thank you!

    I posted a similar question in SUP Apps project not too long ago and  Paul Horan provided this useful reply:
    Create a "Sybase ASA v12.x for Unwired Server" connection profile in the Enterprise Explorer.  I named mine CDB.
    : Host = localhost (or whatever the machine name is)
    : Port = 5200
    : Database name = "default"
    : User Name = "dba"
    : Password = "sql"
    Obviously, change the userid/password to match, if you changed them during install time.
    Connect, and you'll see the "default" database displayed.
    Navigate down through the Tables folder, and the first subfolder is labeled something like [#should_delete_sk ...]  Start there.
    You'll see a bunch of tables with the naming convention "D1" + package name + package version + MBO name.  These are the cache tables for the MBOs.

  • A question about the impact of SQL*PLUS SERVEROUTPUT option on v$sql

    Hello everybody,
    SQL> SELECT * FROM v$version;

    PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production

    TNS for Linux: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
    SQL>
    OS : Fedora Core 17 (X86_64) Kernel 3.6.6-1.fc17.x86_64I would like to ask a question about the SQL*Plus SET SERVEROUTPUT ON/OFF option and its impact on queries on views such as v$sql and v$session. Here is the problem
    Actually I define three variables in SQL*Plus in order to store sid, serial# and prev_sql_id columns from v$session in order to be able to use them later, several times in different other queries, while I'm still working in the current session.
    So, here is how I proceed
    SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;  -- I often activate this option as the first line of almost all of my SQL-PL/SQL script files
    SET SQLBLANKLINES ON;
    VARIABLE mysid NUMBER
    VARIABLE myserial# NUMBER;
    VARIABLE saved_sql_id VARCHAR2(13);
    -- So first I store sid and serial# for the current session
    BEGIN
        SELECT sid, serial# INTO :mysid, :myserial#
        FROM v$session
        WHERE audsid = SYS_CONTEXT('UserEnv', 'SessionId');
    END;
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
    -- Just check to see the result
    SQL> SELECT :mysid, :myserial# FROM DUAL;
        :MYSID :MYSERIAL#
           129   1067
    SQL> Now, let's say that I want to run the following query as the last SQL statement run within my current session
    SELECT * FROM employees WHERE salary >= 2800 AND ROWNUM <= 10;According to Oracle® Database Reference 11g Release 2 (11.2) description for v$session
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25513/dynviews_3016.htm#REFRN30223]
    the column prev_sql_id includes the sql_id of the last sql statement executed for the given sid and serial# which in the case of my example, it will be the above mentioned SELECT query on the employees table. As a result, right after the SELECT statement on the employees table I run the following
    BEGIN
        SELECT prev_sql_id INTO :saved_sql_id
        FROM v$session
        WHERE sid = :mysid AND serial# = :myserial#;
    END;
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
    SQL> SELECT :saved_sql_id FROM DUAL;
    :SAVED_SQL_ID
    9babjv8yq8ru3
    SQL> Having the value of sql_id, I'm supposed to find all information about cursor(s) for my SELECT statement and also its sql_text value in v$sql. Yet here is what I get when I query v$sql upon the stored sql_id
    SELECT child_number, sql_id, sql_text
    FROM v$sql
    WHERE sql_id = :saved_sql_id;
    CHILD_NUMBER   SQL_ID          SQL_TEXT
    0              9babjv8yq8ru3    BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.GET_LINES(:LINES, :NUMLINES); END;Therefore instead of
    SELECT * FROM employees WHERE salary >= 2800 AND ROWNUM <= 10;for the value of sql_text I get the following value
    BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.GET_LINES(:LINES, :NUMLINES);Which is not of course what I was expecting to find in v$sql for the given sql_id.
    After a bit googling I found the following thread on the OTN forum where it had been suggested (well I think maybe not exactly for the same problem) to turn off SERVEROUTPUT.
    Problem with dbms_xplan.display_cursor
    This was precisely what I did
    SET SERVEROUTPUT OFFafter that I repeated the whole procedure and this time everything worked pretty well as expected. I checked SQL*Plus documentation for SERVEROUTPUT
    and also v$session page, yet I didn't find anything indicating that SERVEROUTPUT should be switched off whenever views such as v$sql, v$session
    are queired. I don't really understand the link in terms of impact that one can have on the other or better to say rather, why there is an impact
    Could anyone kindly make some clarification?
    thanks in advance,

    Hi Dariyoosh,
    SET SERVEROUTPUT ON has the effect of executing dbms_output.get_lines after each and every statement. Not only related to system view.
    Here below what Tom Kyte is explaining in this page:
    Now, sqlplus sees this functionality and says "hey, would not it be nice for me to dump this buffer to screen for the user?". So, they added the SQLPlus command "set serveroutput on" which does two things
    1) it tells SQLPLUS you would like it <b>to execute dbms_output.get_lines after each and every statement</b>. You would like it to do this network rounding after each call. You would like this extra overhead to take place (think of an install script with hundreds/thousands of statements to be executed -- perhaps, just perhaps you don't want this extra call after every call)
    2) SQLPLUS automatically calls the dbms_output API "enable" to turn on the buffering that happens in the package.Regards.

  • Some questions about the integration between BIEE and EBS

    Hi, dear,
    I'm a new bie of BIEE. In these days, have a look about BIEE architecture and the BIEE components. In the next project, there are some work about BIEE development based on EBS application. I have some questions about the integration :
    1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?
    2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?
    3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?
    4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?
    could anyone give some guide for me? I'm very appreciated if you can also give any other information.
    Thanks in advance.

    1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?You, shud consider OBI Application here which uses OBIEE as a reporting tool with different pre-built modules. Both 10g & 11g comes with different versions of BI apps which supports sources like Siebel CRM, EBS, Peoplesoft, JD Edwards etc..
    2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?Its independent of any soure. This is OBIEE modeling to create RPD with all the layers. If you build it from scratch then you will require to create all the layers else if BI Apps is used then you will get pre-built RPD along with other pre-built components.
    3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?BI apps comes with pre-built ETL mapping to use with the tools majorly with Informatica. Only BI Apps 7.9.5.2 comes with ODI but oracle has plans to have only ODI for any further releases.
    4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?User will still see old data because its good to turn on Cache and purge it after every load.

  • Question about the DB adapter

    Question about the DB adapter
    ns2006.0.7
    Question:
    It seems that we can only have 1 db adapter, but in the adapter defiition we have to specify the database.  If I want to communicate to several different databases on different platforms, Oracle / SQL I need to install a DB adapter for each database connection. 
    I can't figure out how to add a second DB adapter, does anyone know how?
    Thank you
    Daniel
    Safeway Inc.

    Hi
    We're new at developing our own agents etc. We've leveraged the supplied DB agent and written the relevant adapter, however we're struggling with the transformation.
    Could I be cheeky and ask if anyone would be willing to share a transformation they have written for the DB adapter? Unfortunately no-one in our team has had past XML experience, so we're trying to backwards engineer from examples.
    Thanks, Meghan

    1.can we have new name for the target database,Yes.
    2.I think we need to create tablespaces ,do we need to create users as wellYou can create users, but it is not necessary. You need to pre-create tablespaces only if their characteristics/locations on the target are different than on the source.
    3.If we are upgrading from 9i to 10g database ,any activity to be perfromed other than thisNot that I am aware of - see the steps in the Upgrade Guide - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14238/expimp.htm
    4.How come we get consistent export wetherEnsure the database is started in restricted mode, so users will not be able to access the database during the export.
    >
    In DBUA mode ( in the same machine only)
    1.Do we need shutdown / startup restrict the databaseNo - DBUA will do this automatically for you.
    2.How can we move the files to the new locationYou can after the upgrade move the datafiles to wherever you want - use the ALTER DATABASE RENAME DATAFILE (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/statements_1004.htm#i2082829) command.
    3.Can we change db_name of the databaseI do not believe this is possible with DBUA.
    4.Can we use the old database as wellNo - the database will be upgraded by DBUA - there is no "old" database.

  • Question about the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE)

    Dear everyone
    Could I ask you a question about the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE)?
    I was asked if it's possible to create a report which compares the data between different SAP systems (both production systems).
    Now, the easiest way would be to use the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE) within a SAP infoset query (SQ01 type query).
    But I heard the rumor that using the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE) is not advisable due to the security reason.
    However, I am not exactly sure what sort of security problems this function module can possibly have...
    Would you help me on this?
    I also would like to know if using "remote enabled module" type function module can always overcome this possible security issue.
    Or, are there any points that I need to be careful about even when I use "remote enabled module" function module?
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Takashi

    Dear Fred-san
    Thank you very much for your support on this.
    But, may I double check about what you mentioned above?
    So, what you were mentioning was that if some user executes the query with
    the function module (RFC_READ_TABLE), under the following conditions, he can access to
    the HR data even when he does not have the authorizations for HR transactions?
    <Conditions>
    1. the user has the authorization for HR database tables themselves
    2. RFC_READ_TABLE is called to retrieve the data from HR database
    <example>
    Data: LF_HR_TABLE like  DD02L-TABNAME value 'PA0000'.
    CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_READ_TABLE'
       EXPORTING
        query_table                = LF_HR_TABLE
      TABLES
       OPTIONS                    =
       fields                     =
       data                       =    .
    But then, as long as we call this function module for a non-critical tables such as
    VBAP (sales order) or EKKO (purchase order) within our query, it wouldn't seem to be
    so security risk to use RFC_READ_TABLE...
    Besides, each query (infoset query) has got the concept of user groups, which limits
    the access to the queries within the user group.
    ※If someone does not belong to the user group, he cannot execute the queries within that
       user group, etc
    So, my feeling is that even infoset queries does have authorization concept...
    Would you give me your thought on this?
    I also thank you for your information for SCU0.
    That is an interesting transaction
    Kind regards,
    Takashi

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Two questions about the new iWeb

    Hi
    I've got two questions about the new iWeb.
    1. Is it possible to blog online now? Meaning adding a new blog entry without having to be on your own Mac? This is a feature I've been waiting for since iWeb first was released.
    2. Is it possible to choose the format of images? Earlier editions had the option to "optimize" images but that meant it changed it into .png meaning the site got a lot heavier than if .jpg was used. And since I have relatives who still only have an isdn connection I need to be able to have the website as light as possible.
    thanks

    Question about the sensor... just got my 4s yesterday after screwing up my 3 with the laterd version update. EVery call I have been on has either changed to speaker, called another number or ended the call or activated facetime, which I have turned off. never had this trouble with my 3...I don't even want to talk to anyone on this phone! Is the sensor bad? That is what the AT&t rep suggested.

    Restore as new... if the problem still continues then there is a hardware issue.
    If it stops after a restore as new, then the issue is with the backup the device is currently setup with.

  • Question about the ability of Genius Bar to help with outside software...

    Hi I wasn't sure where to put this, but here's my question. I'm having a problem with the Sims 2 on my Macbook and I was wondering if I go to the Genius Bar will they be able to help me or are they strictly hands off when it's not a direct Apple product?
    Also, I bought an external hard drive in the Apple Store but it's not an Apple branded product. If I'm having a problem with that, can I go to the Apple Store?

    If it's a question about the installation, system requirements or compatibility with your MacBook, the Mac Genius can probably help. If you're having some kind of issue while using the Sims 2, you'll probably have to contact .
    The same is true with the hard drive. If you need some help getting it connected or even formatted, they can probably help. However, if it's not powering up or you're losing files or some kind of operational issue with the hard drive after it's connected, they'll probably refer you to the manufacturer.
    Usually Apple can't support other vendors' products. Someone here may be able to give you some more advice, since none of us work for Apple. There may be someone here who's already had the same issue with the Sims.

  • Question about the programming of a legend

    Hello everybody,
    I have a question about the programming of a waveform's legend. I
    already asked here in this forum about the legend programming (03)
    months ago.
    I went satisfied but I ve just noticed that this code
    (See Code old_legend_test.llb with main.vi as main function) operates a
    little different from my expectances.
    Therefore I have a new question and I want to know if it
    is possible by labview programming to plot and show, on a waveform
    chart, a signal with activ plot superior to zero (0) without to be
    obliged to plot and show a signal with activ plot equal to zero (0) or
    inferior to the desired activ plot.
    I give you an example
    of what I m meaning. I have by example 4 signals (Signal 0, 1, 2 and 3)
    and each signal corresponds respectively to a channel (Chan1, Chan2,
    Chan3, Chan4). I want to control the legend (activ plot, plot name and
    plot color) programmatically. Is it possible with labview to plot signal
    1 or 2 or 3 or (1, 3) or (2,3) or (1,2,3) or other possible combination
    without to active the signal with the corresponding activ plot zero
    (0)?
    Let see the labview attached data
    (new_legend_test.llb with main.vi as main function). When I try to
    control the input selected values again I get them back but I don't
    understand why they have no effect on the legend of my waveform chart.
    Could somebody explain me what I m doing wrong or show me how to get a
    correct legend with desired plots? Thank by advance for your assistance.
    N.B.
    The
    both attached data are saved with labview 2009.

    Hi
    princejack,
    Thanks for
    posting on National Instruments forum.
    The behavior
    you have is completely normal. You can control the number of row displayed in
    the legend and this rows are linked to the data you send to your graph. Thus,
    if you have 3 arrays of data, let say chan1, chan2 and chan3, you can choose
    which data you want to display in your graph using the property node (Active
    plot and visible). But for the legend as you send 3 plots there is an array of
    the plot name [chan1, chan2, chan3] and you can display 0, 1, 2 or 3 rows of
    this array but you cannot control the order in this array! So, to be able to
    change this array you have to only send data you need to you graph. I'm not
    sure my explanations are clear so I have implemented a simple example doing
    that.
