Sql STORAGE DATATYPES

Hi There Guys!
I need a simple information about storage in oracle... what is the size of all the datatypes which there are in oracle?
The problem is this... I have to create a tablespace, so I need its storage, but I don't know what is the size of the single datatypes, and the documentation of the 11g version (that is what I need) tells a few information about it...
Thanks for all!!
See you soon!

No, no the problem is another, cause I think that is not important trought what I want to populate these datatypes, but what is the real size that characterizes theme:if I write varchar2(1), oracle allocates 1 byte, 2 byte... how much bytes it allocates? This is the problem! XD
In this way, if I have a table composed by two records: Name, Sourname, if I know what is the size of one varchar2 I can calcoulate all the size of the table.

PGS & ORA-06500:PL-SQL : storage error

How do I tune PGA when I get an ORA-06500:PL-SQL : storage error. Works in 8i but not 9i. 9i is auto, 8i is not. Is this it?
Tx.

Different servers? Unix? If so, check OS (ulimit -a) first and then post the results. If separate machines then it might not be PGA at all.
I would strongly suggest checking that and then posting a new, more detailed problem statement to the Database: General forum rather than posting to the Oracle Text forum (since it isn't related). Toss in info about the server type(s), memory settings that you've checked, the full error, what you're doing when you get it, etc.
Thanks,
Ron

Sql storage

Hello Guys, when ever a sql is executed it uses the temporary tablespace storage to do the sorting right?
very often we face the problem that the temp segment is unable to extend because the query needs more space to do the sorting.
My question is, is there any method to get an estimate on how much storage a query needs to execute. can the information of explain plan in the filed of "BYTES" or size of the table being used in the query be of any help to determine how much storage the query needs to do the sorting in the temporary tablespace?

when ever a sql is executed it uses the temporary tablespace storage to do the sorting right? Wrong. It only uses temp if it is unable to perform the sort in memory.
You can not estimate, in advance, the swap space required but you can write better queries, create sorted hash clusters, or use the right indexing, to minimize the number of sorts and the size of what is being sorted.
Without a version number, DML, and Explain Plans it is impossible to give anything other than very general advice ... but suffice it to say your basic assumption is incorrect.

Sql decimal datatype

I'm using labview 7.1 with the database connectivity toolkit to interact with a sql server. One column is of the datatype float, but when I send 0.95, it stores 0.94999999. I've read about this before, but trying to use numeric or decimal causes a different problem. When the column is of one of these datatypes and I do a fetch of the data, nothing in that column comes back. I'm leaving the data as a variant in labview, so it isn't a conversion issue. I get just a blank variant box. It works only for float. And the other columns all work fine.
Are decimal and numeric types not supported by labview, and if so how do I get around the inaccuracy of float datatypes?

Fractional floating point numbers can often not be represented exactly in binary, even if they are nice and round in decimal.
0.95 for example is actually 0.949999999999999955(DBL) or 0.9499999880791(SGL). There is nothing wrong with that. You simply need to set your display to only show the desired number of significant digits.

There is no real inaccuracy. The difference between 0.94999999 and 0.95 is 0.00000001 or about 1 in 100000000! (This is just the diplayed part, the difference in real life is even less. Is your number really more precise that 52bits? (or 23bits for SGL).

Create a table in SQL with datatype equivalent to LongBlob

I have a mySQL or phpMyadmin table (nor sure) (with longblob fields) that I want to convert to SQL Server.
Here is a link to a Rar with two files, the 'ORIGINAL CODE.sql' is the original code sample and the 'NEW_SQL_CODE.sql' is the code I am writing in SQL to create a database.
Click to download the two files.
I fail to make the insert in the 'NEW_SQL_CODE.sql', it says (translated from spanish) something like "The binary data will be truncated"
INSERT INTO inmuebles_fotos (ci_inm, pos, foto, mini, comentario, inet, impr_cartel, impr_visita) VALUES
(6, 0, 0xffd8ffe000104a46494600010100000100010...etc...
I don’t know how if I have defined the wrong data type (image) equivalent to the MySQL LongBlob. All I want to do is to make that insert in SQL and save that image as jpg if possible. I don't know if it's not posible in SQL and can only
be done in MySQL.
Thanks for any help.

The original table is not mine; I am just trying to save the images as .jpg in hard drive.
Here is the original table I have that has 500Mb in pictures, in the sample there is only 1 picture:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `inmuebles_fotos` (
`ci_inm` int(10) unsigned DEFAULT NULL,
`pos` smallint(6) DEFAULT NULL,
`foto` longblob,
`mini` longblob,
`comentario` varchar(100) DEFAULT NULL,
`inet` tinyint(3) unsigned DEFAULT '0',
`impr_cartel` smallint(6) DEFAULT '0',
`impr_visita` smallint(6) DEFAULT '0'
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
And here is the equivalent table in SQL that I am trying to create to import al registers so I can save the pictures from SQL Server that is what we use here.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[inmuebles_fotos2](
[ci_inm] [int] NULL,
[pos] [int] NULL,
[foto] [image] NULL,
[mini] [image] NULL,
[comentario] [varchar](1) NULL,
[inet] [int] NULL,
[impr_cartel] [int] NULL,
[impr_visita] [int] NULL
Sorry for the trouble, I am trying everything I get my hands on until I get to save those images in “0x1234567890ABCDE…….” Format.
I'll try anything you sugest me but I have only use SQL Server so that's why I'm trying this road first.
Thanks for your help.

XSL transform question from XML date datatype to SQL date datatype

Just to give an idea, I am reading some employee information in a CSV format and I have created the fileadapter to read it and parse it into coherent information where each comma separated value corresponds to a column in an employee table. One of the columns is of the date object in the database.
So my my variable is created with a list of employees and then fed into the invoke that calls a dbadapter that does the insert. I am using a transformation to get the values from one variable into the other simply because of namespace conflicts. However the xml date will not match the sql date object as to be expected...but how do I work around it? I have a few ideas but I am not sure they are worth mentioning.
Any suggestions?

Pl-sql composite datatype-record problem!!

Hello
I am using hr schema tables and I intend to display first_name,last_name and hire date of President.
When I am doing join I am facing errors
following is my code
/* Formatted on 2009/11/23 15:19 (Formatter Plus v4.8.8) */
DECLARE
e1 hr.employees%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT *
INTO e1

Please help
Thank You

Hello,
Instead of using
SELECT *you need to select the right columns that HR.EMPLOYEES consist of if you want to use the rowtype or declare 3 variables.
And always use proper aliases.
Another 'dirty' way, without any declarations at all:
hoek&XE> begin
2    for e1 in ( select e.*
3                from   hr.employees e
4                ,      hr.jobs j
5                where e.job_id = j.job_id
6                and    j.job_title = 'President'
7              )
8    loop
9      dbms_output.put_line (e1.first_name);
10      dbms_output.put_line (e1.last_name);
11      dbms_output.put_line (e1.hire_date);

Pl sql invalid datatype error for table casting(PL/SQL: ORA-00902: invalid)

See the code snippet -
Create or Replace Package xyz.abc as

Type tab_local is Table of rec_local;
Procedure exclude_pkey (tab1 IN tab_local );

Cursor cur is

where primary_key NOT IN (select primary_key

BEGIN
END exclude_pkey ;
End abc;
I came to know the process that for query purpose we cant use pl/sql type, it must sql type, i.e. creating object and table of that object type in sql,and use of MEMEBER OF ,but what should i do in this case where insted of IN(MEMBER OF can be used for the case of IN) ,NOT IN is used for query.
please reply,
thank you

You are only selecting a single column, primary_key, in your cursor.
You could use the built in sys.ODCINumberlist or sys.ODCIVarchar2list data types instead and pass in only the primary_key.

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10765/ext_types_ref.htm#ADDCI5012
If you are on an old version you can create your own types with the same definition.
Using a cursor like that I can tell that you want to do whatever this does as slowly and inefficiently as possible though.

Use external SQL storage

Can you use an external SQL server to hold TFS data? My understanding is that TFS allows up to 10 GB because it runs an internal instance of SQL Express. We need at least 15 GB. Can I configure TFS to hold the data on one of our network SQL Servers? Thanks
for any advice.
Benji Legaspi

Hi Benji,
I agree with Vladimir. You might need to use Standard Edition of SQL Server. And you can check this
page for more information about install SQL Server for TFS.

Interface with SQL backend (foreign schema)?

I'm looking for a Radius or LDAP solution using (foreign schema) SQL storage as backend.
I do have a large user database (that must stay as-is, I only have read-only sql access) that resides on an Oracle SQL server. I know the schema and how the passwords are salted and hashed, but on the gateway I can only use Radius or LDAP as authentication protocols. This is purely for authentication, not authorization (i.e. no group memberships need to be resolved) or accounting.
Is this possible with either ISE or ACS? I know that ACS may use Oracle, but afaik only for accounting or use it as its own underlying database (which is not what I want as the users already exist in a given schema).

How to ask a good question
Make sure to give all the pertinent information that people will need to answer your question. Questions like “I got an IO error, any ideas?” or “What’s the best technology for me to use?” will likely go unanswered, or at best just result in a request for more information. Here are some ideas of what to include:
For the “I got an IO error, any ideas?” scenario:
The exact error message. (The SQL Errorlog and Windows Event Logs can be a rich source of information. See the section on error logs below.)
What were you doing when you got the error message?
When did this start happening?
Any troubleshooting you’ve already done. (e.g. “I’ve already checked all the firmware and it’s up-to-date” or "I've run SQLIOStress and everything looks OK" or "I ran DBCC CHECKDB and the output is <blah>")
Any unusual occurrences before the error occurred (e.g. someone tripped the power switch, a disk in a RAID5 array died)
If relevant, the output from ‘DBCC CHECKDB (yourdbname) WITH ALL_ERRORMSGS, NO_INFOMSGS’
The SQL Server version and service pack level
For the “What’s the best technology for me to use?” scenario:
What exactly are you trying to do? Enable local hardware redundancy? Geo-clustering? Instance-level failover? Minimize downtime during recovery from IO errors with a single-system?
What are the SLAs (Service Level Agreements) you must meet? (e.g. an uptime percentage requirement, a minimum data-loss in the event of a disaster requirement, a maximum downtime in the event of a disaster requirement)
What hardware restrictions do you have? (e.g. “I’m limited to a single system” or “I have several worldwide mirror sites but the size of the pipe between them is limited to X Mbps”)
What kind of workload does you application have? (or is it a mixture of applications consolidated on a single server, each with different SLAs) How much transaction log volume is generated?
What kind of regular maintenance does your workload demand that you perform (e.g. “the update pattern of my main table is such that fragmentation increases in the clustered index, slowing down the most common queries so there’s a need to perform some fragmentation removal regularly”)
Finding the Logs
You will often find more information about an error by looking in the Error and Event logs. There are two sets of logs that are interesting:
SQL Error Log: default location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.#\MSSQL\LOG (Note: The # changes depending on the ID number for the installed Instance. This is 1 for the first installation of SQL Server, but if you have mulitple instances, you will need to determine the ID number you’re working with. See the BOL for more information about Instance ID numbers.)
Windows Event Log: Go to the Event Viewer in the Administrative Tools section of the Start Menu. The System event log will show details of IO subsystem problems. The Application event log will show details of SQL Server problems.

hi,I have a question on sql database high availability. I have tried using database mirroring, where I am using sql standard edition, in this database mirroring of synchronous mode is the only option available, and it is giving problem, like sql time out errors on my applicatons since i had put in the database mirroring, as asynchronous is only available on enterprise version, is there any suggestions on this. thanks ---vijay

Hi Martin,
I guess, I was not clear enough. Let me try again
How Aggregate Persistence works in OBIEE?
Once you are done choosing options in the Aggregate Persistence wizard, it generates an intelligent Query.
What query is it?
If you happen to understand the query, it is not like any ANSI standard SQL (I would say DDL) query. As you might have noticed there are no SQL Server datatypes, lengths, keys, constraints etc. This query can only be understood by the BI Server.
How do I issue this query?
Since the logical query could only be understood by BI Server, it has to be issued only to BI Server Engine using some tool viz NQCMD in this case.
What does issuing this query using NQCMD do?
The execution steps are as follows, the moment the query is issue via NQCMD
Aggregate Persistent Wiz Generate Query ----- Issued to ---> NQCMD ----- Passes the logical query to ---> BI Server ----- Parses the query ---> Builds the corresponding physical DDL statements Issued --->To the Database --- If successful ---> .RPD is automatically updated with the aggregated sources etc.
How do I pass the query to BI Server using NQCMD?
The format of issuing this logical query to BI Server using NQCMD is
nqcmd -d <Data Source Name> -u <Analytics UserId> -p <Password> -s <command> > output.log
where
<Data Source Name> : Is the DSN name which OBIPS uses to talk to Oracle BI Server. Yes, it's the very same DSN that can be found in InstanceConfig.xml
<Analytics UserID> : Any user in obiee with admin privileges.
<Password> : Password of the obiee UserId
<Command> : Logical SQL Command which you already have handy.
Hope I was good this time..

Reading milliseconds from Sql server into oracle 10g

Hi,
We have a very time sensitive pressing requirements to be addressed immediately.
We need to read the date time column from sql server 2008 into oracle 10g.
We have a dblink established between the two servers and have tried to use sql server and sql native client 10 driver to read the dates from sql into oracle.This we are able to do very successfully.
The issue is in reading milliseconds stored in sql server.The millisecond part comes in as 00000 from sqlserver to oracle.These milliseconds are needed to identlfy the unique records.
For instance
SQL SERVER Oracle
source_id source id
01/01/2012 6:30:35:456 01/01/2012 6:30:35:000000.
Im issuing my query through Toad via Oracle to remote sql server using a dblink which connects using HS ODBC connection to sql server 2008(remote).
We have no control over sql server Db as this is remote third party DB.We just have select access to their tables to bring into our own oracle DB.
Any insight or help will be much appreciated.

Hi,
Could you please send the following information -
- what version of HSODBC are you using ? Is it a 10.2 version ?
- what is the SQL*Server datatype of the column you are reading ?
- from Oracle could you issue -
describe sql_server_table@hsodbc
- what is the Oracle datatype shown for the column ?
Could you also run your tests using SQLPLUS instead of TOAD ? We don't support TOAD and need to know if the problem also happens when using SQLPLUS, to avoid it being a TOAD problem.
Also, 10.2 HSODBC is now desupported and you should be using the 11g Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) which is a direct replacement for HSODBC. To use DG4ODBC your RDBMS needs to be at 10.2.0.4 or higher and DG4ODBC should be installed in a completely separate ORACLE_HOME from the existing 10.2 install.
Regards,
Mike
