Select query giving ora-01555. Need help with tuning

Hi,
Following query of mine fails with ORA-01555:
select xx from a where a.xx NOT IN (select xx from b where status=0)
Tables a & b have million rows approx. How can I tune the query (to remove "NOT IN").
The explain plan is:
0 SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=CHOOSE (Cost=705828732 Card=55061 Bytes=3468843)
1 0 FILTER
2 1 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'A' (Cost=1773 Card=55061 Bytes=3468843)
3 1 PARTITION RANGE (ITERATOR)
4 3 PARTITION LIST (ALL)
5 4 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'B' (Cost=12819 Card=45553 Bytes=2596521)
Thanks,
Prachi

You could try:
select xx from a
minus
select xx from b
where  status = 0;But it's not likely to be any better and it won't solve your ora-1555.
The problem is not your select statement but some other process that is updating the rows you need and overwriting rollback segments.
Do you have a large update process that is committing in a cursor for loop?

    Hi,
    I am a newbie in database administration and eager to learn abt sql tuning. Could someone please explain me in simple language the definitions of following terms:
    db file scattered read
    db file sequential read
    enqueue
    latch free
    SQL*Net message from client
    db block gets
    consistent gets
    physical reads
    sorts
    I have encountered these terms often and was wondering if someone could plss explain me with an example. Please tell me what happens when the values are too high/too low for this terms.

    I really doubt that you have read about these events carefully enough since the Performance Tuning guide goes a good job in explaining them.It would be too long to write an elaboration of all of the mentioned wait events here , given the fact that you haven't even told us that you have understood something, nothing , anything about them or not! Suggest you that you read the performance tuning guide again. In addition to it, also buy this book,

  • I need help with a SELECT query - help!

    Hello, I need help with a select statement.
    I have a table with 2 fields as shown below
    Name | Type
    John | 1
    John | 2
    John | 3
    Paul | 1
    Paul | 2
    Paul | 3
    Mark | 1
    Mark | 2
    I need a query that returns everything where the name has type 1 or 2 but not type 3. So in the example above the qery should bring back all the "Mark" records.
    Thanks,
    Ian

    Or, if the types are sequential from 1 upwards you could simply do:-
    SQL> create table t as
      2  select 'John' as name, 1 as type from dual union
      3  select 'John',2 from dual union
      4  select 'John',3 from dual union
      5  select 'Paul',1 from dual union
      6  select 'Paul',2 from dual union
      7  select 'Paul',3 from dual union
      8  select 'Paul',4 from dual union
      9  select 'Mark',1 from dual union
    10  select 'Mark',2 from dual;
    Table created.
    SQL> select name
      2  from t
      3  group by name
      4  having count(*) <= 2;
    NAME
    Mark
    SQL>Or another alternative if they aren't sequential:
    SQL> ed
    Wrote file afiedt.buf
      1  select name from (
      2    select name, max(type) t
      3    from t
      4    group by name
      5    )
      6* where t < 3
    SQL> /

  • Need help with a query

    Hi,
    I need help with the following query. I want the balance (bal) with the latest exchange rate available.
    Sample table & data
    with
    FX_RATE as
    select 11 as id_date, 1 as id_curr, 47 as EXCH_rate from dual union
    select 12, 1, 48 from dual union
    select 13, 2, 54 from dual union
    select 14, 2, 55 from dual union
    select 15, 3, 56 from dual union
    select 15, 2, 49 from dual),
    TBL_NM as
    select 13 as p_date, 2 as p_curr, 200 as bal from dual union
    select 14, 2, 200 from dual union
    select 15, 2, 200 from dual union
    select 16, 2, 200 from dual union
    select 17, 2, 200 from dual union

    select p_date, p_curr, bal * nvl(exch_rate,1) from TBL_NM T LEFT OUTER JOIN FX_RATE F1 on (id_curr = p_curr and F1.id_date = T.p_Date)In the above query for p_date 16 & 17 and p_curr 2 it returns just balance multiplied by exchange rate 1"default". But i want the balance to have data as per latest exchange rate which is of exchange rate 15.
    I tried this but returns error ORA-01799: a column may not be outer joined to a subquery ..

    I need to find the greatest grant year for the grant by a period parameter.
    once i find the greatest year i need to check the value of period 14 for that grant for the previous year and add it to the budget amount for that grant. however if their is an entry in the greatest year for period 00 then i need to ignore the period 14 of previous year and do this calculation current period +(current period - greatest year 00)
    hope that makes sense so in other words with the new data above. if i was querying period two of grant year 11. i would end up with $800
    because the greatest year is 11 it contains a period 0 with amount of $400 so my total should be
    period 2 amount $ 600
    period 0 amount $ 400 - period 2 amount of $600 = 200
    600+200 = $800
    if i query period 1 of grant 360055 i would just end up with 800 of grnt year 10.
    i have tried to modify that query you supplied to me with no luck. I have tried for several day but im embarrased to say i just can get it to do what im trying to do .
    can you please help me out.
    here is the query supplied by frank kulash who gracefully put this together for me.

    Hi, Miguel,
    Are you waying that, when the greatest year that has :given_period also has period='00' (or '0', or whatever you want to use), then you want to double the budget from the given_period (as well as subtract the budget from the '00', and not count the pevious year's '14')? If so, add another condition to the CASE statement which decides what you're SUMming:
    WITH     got_greatest_year     AS
         SELECT       TO_NUMBER (fgl_grnt_year)     AS grnt_year

  • Need help with writing a query with dynamic FROM clause

    Remember that anything inside quotes is case-sensitive. Is the owner really "Schema_Name" with a capital S and a capital N, and 8 lower-case letters?
    Simply sticking the later query in the first query does not work.Right; the table name must be given when you compile the query. It's not an expression that you can generate in the query itself.
    Any pointers will be appreciated.In SQL*Plus, you can do something like the query bleow.
    Say you want to count the rows in scott.emp, but you're not certain that the name is emp; it could be emp_2011 or emp_august, or anything else that starts with e. (And the name could change every day, so you can't just look it up now and hard-code it in a query that you want to run in the future.)
    Typically, how dynamic SQL works is that some code (such as a preliminary query) gets some of the information you need to write the query first, and you use that information in a SQL statement that is compiled and run after that. For example:
    -- Preliminary Query:
    COLUMN     my_table_name_col     NEW_VALUE my_table_name
    SELECT     table_name     AS my_table_name_col
    FROM     all_tables
    WHERE     owner          = 'SCOTT'
    AND     table_name     LIKE 'E%';
    -- Main Query:
    SELECT     COUNT (*)     AS cnt
    FROM     scott.&my_table_name
    ;This assumes that the preliminary query will find exactly one row; that is, it assumes that SCOTT has exactly one table whose name starts with E. Could you have 0 tables in the schema, or more than 1? If so, what results would you want? Give a concrete example, preferably suing commonly available tables (like those in the SCOTT schema) so that the poepl who want to help you can re-create the problem and test their ideas.

    But... I didn`t understand the first partSorry, what part is that? You probably understood "Welcome to the forum!" It looks like you understood most of what I said, perhaps before I said it. You seem to be on the right track.
    Unlike talking to a co-worker in the next cube, exchanging messages with someone on this forum takes a fair amount of time, so it's worth the time it takes to explain things very clearly, more than you would in conversation. Post all the relevant information, and say exactly what the problem is.
    amm i tried to do this:
    select t_recipes.recipe_name, count(t_cooking_mode.cooking_mode)
    from (t_cooking_mode INNER JOIN t_integration ON t_cooking_mode.recipe_no = t_integration.recipe_no )

    WHERE t_products.product_name = 'tomatoes'
    GROUP BY t_recipes.recipe_name
    help?Please help by posting whatever you know about the problem. For example, if there's a error message, post the complete error message, including the line number.
    Help the people who want to help you by formatting your code and making it easy to read and understand. This will help you, too.
    For example, here's exactly what you posted, with only the white-space changed to make parallel items, such as parentheses, line up nicely:
    select        t_recipes.recipe_name
    ,       count(t_cooking_mode.cooking_mode)
    from             (          t_cooking_mode
                INNER JOIN      t_integration      ON t_cooking_mode.recipe_no = t_integration.recipe_no
    INNER JOIN      t_products      ON t_integration.product_no = t_products.product_no
    WHERE       t_products.product_name      = 'tomatoes'
    GROUP BY  t_recipes.recipe_nameWhen you format your code like this, it can be very easy to spot errors like unbalanced parentheses. In this case, the ')' right before the WHERE clause has no matching '('. You don't need to use any parentheses at all in the FROM clause. You can simply say:
    FROM     t_cooking_mode
    JOIN      t_integration      ON t_cooking_mode.recipe_no = t_integration.recipe_no
    JOIN      t_products      ON t_integration.product_no = t_products.product_no
    WHERE     ...INNER JOIN is the default kind of join, which makes sense, since the majority of all joins are inner joins. I usually say JOIN (instead of INNER JOIN) because it makes the code more compact and easier to read (at least for me), but I won't be maintaining your code, so do what's best for you.
    What are you trying to find in this problem? Is it a recipe name or a cooking mode? If it's a cooking mode, the why do you have t_recipes.reciple_name in the SELECT (and GROUP BY) clause? Shouldn't you be using some other column, from some other table?
    If I understand the problem correctly, the t_recipes table is not needed in this problem. You won't necessarily use every table in every query.
    When you post formatted text on this site, type these 6 characters:

  • Need help with trim and null function

    Hi all,
    I need help with a query. I use the trim function to get the first three characters of a string. How do I write my query so if a null value occurs in combination with my trim to say 'Null' in my results?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thanks for the reply. What am I doing wrong?
    SELECT trim(SUBSTR(AL1.user_data_text,1,3)),NVL
    (AL1.user_data_text,'XX')
    FROM Table
    I want the XX to appear in the same column as the
    trim.The main thing you're doing wrong is not formatting your code. The solution may become obvious if you do.
    What you're saying is:
    SELECT  trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
    ,       NVL ( AL1.user_data_text, 'XX' )
    FROM    Tablewhich makes it clear that you're SELECTing two columns, when you only want to have one.
    If you want that column to be exactly like the first column you're currently SELECTing, except that when that column is NULL you want it to be 'XX', then you have to apply NVL to that column, like this:
    SELECT  NVL ( trim ( SUBSTR (AL1.user_data_text, 1, 3))
                , 'XX'
    FROM    Table

  • Need Help with Address Display

    I need help with APEX.
    Here's my situation:
    I have a report that displays brief employee information. Among the information displayed is the Address. Right now, it's display as:
    Mr X
    Employee Id
    Accounting Department
    Address 1
    Mr X
    Employee Id
    Accounting Department
    Address 2
    I would like it to display
    Mr X
    Employee Id
    Accounting Department
    Address 1
    Address 2
    1) I have thought of using the Break functionality; however, the function only allows break at column 1, 2, 3. As you can see Address starts at column 4. Also, Address has a few columns; Address Line 1, Address Line 2, City, State, Zipcode.
    2) Stragg functions - I'm not sure how to implement it since it has more than 1 columns.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance
    Andrew

    The example I gave you, using analytic functions is a simple one.
    Now, you are saying:
    1. some of the employees may have two adresses?
    2. if this is the case, your employee appears in the report twice?
    3. you don't want his name, employee id and accounting department to appear twice?
    4. only his address has to be displayed?
    If the answer to all the questions is yes, this kind of query will help you. I repeat:
    SELECT CASE
              WHEN LAG (employee_id) OVER (ORDER BY employee_id) =
                                                        employee_id
                 THEN NULL
              ELSE employee_name
           END employee_name,
           CASE
              WHEN LAG (employee_id) OVER (ORDER BY employee_id) =
                                                          employee_id
                 THEN NULL
              ELSE employee_id
           END employee_id,
           CASE
              WHEN LAG (employee_id) OVER (ORDER BY employee_id) =
                                                employee_id
                 THEN NULL
              ELSE accounting_department
           END accounting_department,
           street, postal_code, city, state, country
      FROM your_employees_table;Give it a try.

  • Need help with a recordset

    I need some help with a recordset that selects a series of
    vehicle makes that then show models when a make is selected. The
    problem is when I select the make it shows a list of models like it
    should, some of the make lists have five models and some have ten
    or more. What I need help with is how to limit the list to just the
    models and not include the "null" values. This makes my drop down
    list have large empty spaces at the end of the options listed. The
    query is as follows:
    SELECT *
    FROM saa.vehicle_make
    WHERE make = '#FORM.select_make#'
    Question # 2:
    What can I add to this recordset so that I can search on just
    the make alone without the model included. The submit includes both
    of the make and model lists so that makes it tough to break up.
    Here is the recordset:
    SELECT make
    FROM saa.vehicle_make
    ORDER BY make ASC
    Thanks
    Shane

    Sorry I guess I wasn't being clear. The lists work fine with
    the present recordsets but I was trying to clean them up just a
    little. I am using a table in mysql instead of an array for ease of
    maintenance due to the high number of makes and models I am working
    with.
    For question number one I was looking for sql that allows me
    to only show the models in the table for each make no matter how
    many are in the row. Currently when I use the existing recordset I
    get a long list of blank spaces as it is returning the "null"
    fields also. I would like it to just show the models and stop at
    the first null field.
    For the second question I wanted to be able to submit the
    form with just the make listed if someone wanted to see all Hondas
    lets say. Not I have to select the make also so it limits the
    return.
    Thanks for all of the input
    Shane

    second drop down list with the appropriate results --->

  • Need help with the session state value items.

    I need help with the session state value items.
    Trigger is created (on After delete, insert action) on table A.
    When insert in table B at least one row, then trigger update value to 'Y'
    in table A.
    When delete all rows from a table B,, then trigger update value to 'N'
    in table A.
    In detail report changes are visible, but the trigger replacement value is not set in session value.
    How can I implement this?

    You'll have to create a process which runs after your database update process that does a query and loads the result into your page item.
    For example
    SELECT YN_COLUMN
    FROM My_TABLE
    INTO My_Page_Item
    WHERE Key_value = My_Page_Item_Holding_Key_ValueThe DML process will only return key values after updating, such as an ID primary key updated by a sequence in a trigger.
    If the value is showing in a report, make sure the report refreshes on reload of the page.

  • HT204406 Hello, I need help with my iTunes match

    Helo, I need help with iTunes Match.
    I signed up for iTunes match.  It did its thing and now it is supposed to have every one of my songs in the cloud.
    I checked for Ring my bell (Which I purchase from iTunes) and it is not on my iTunes on my computer anymore?
    I did match to give my 4S with limited memory and over 400 songs the ability to put all songs in the cloud, then by connecting to my computer, somehow I can tell my phone to not sync with match, the re sync and all the songs would be deleted from my phone and then I could down load any songs I wanted on my phone, thus giving me a bunch more memory.   I could not figure out how to do this? 
    Can you please help me.  Thank you.

    You probably won't like this suggestion, but I suggest you reinstall Lion.
    First, backup your system. Next, reboot your system, press/hold the COMMAND-R keys to boot into the Recovery HD. Select 'Reinstall Mac OS X'. If you purchased Lion as an upgrade to Snow Leopard, the reinstall process will install Lion 10.7.3. If your system came preinstalled with Lion, you might still get Lion 10.7.2. Both installs are a total install of the OS. None of your apps or data will be impacted. Just the OS.
