Strange full table scan behavior

Hi all you sharp-eyed oracle gurus out there..
I need some help/tips on a update I'm running which is taking very long time. Oracle RDMBS is 11.2.0.1 with advanced compression option.
I'm currently updating all rows in a table from value 1 to 0. (update mistaf set b_code='0';)
The column in question is a CHAR(1) column and the column is not indexed. The table is a fairly large heap-table with 55 million rows to be updated and it's size is approx 11GB. The table is compressed with the compress for OLTP option.
What is strange to me is that I can clearly see that a full table scan is running but i cannot see any db file scattered read, as i would expect, but instead i'm only seeing db file sequential reads. I suppose this might be the reason for its long execution time (dbconsole estimates 20 hours to complete looking at sql monitoring).
Any views on why Oracle would do db file sequential reads on a FTS? And do you agree that this might be the reason why it takes so long to complete?
More info: I first started the update and left work and the next morning i saw that the update still wasnt finished to which i realised that i had a bitmap index on the column to be updated. I dropped the index and started the update once again.. It seemed to execute very fast at the begining before rapildy declining in performance..
THanks in advance for any help!

tried to tkprof the trace file but no sql came up..
however the raw trace file looks like this

Simple Query in Oracle Linked Table in MS Access causes full table scan.

I am running a very simple query in MS ACCESS to a linked Oracle table as follows:
Select *
From EXPRESS_SERVICE_EVENTS --(the linked table name refers to EXPRESS.SERVICE_EVENTS)
Where performed > MyDate()
or
Select *
From EXPRESS_SERVICE_EVENTS --(the linked table name refers to EXPRESS.SERVICE_EVENTS)
Where performed > [Forms]![MyForm]![Date1]
We have over 50 machines and this query runs fine on over half of these, using an Oracle Index on the "performed" field. Running exactly the same thing on the other machines causes a full table scan, therefore ignoring the Index (all machines access the same Access DB).
Strangely, if we write the query as follows:
Select *
From EXPRESS_SERVICE_EVENTS
Where performed > #09/04/2009 08:00#
it works fast everywhere!
Any help on this 'phenominon' would be appreciated.
Things we've done:
Checked regional settings, ODBC driver settings, MS Access settings (as in Tools->Options), we have the latest XP and Office service packs, and re-linked all Access Tables on both the slow and fast machines independantly).

Primarily, thanks gdarling for your reply. This solved our problem.
Just a small note to those who may be using this thread.
Although this might not be the reason, my PC had Oracle 9iR2 installed with Administratiev Tools, where user machines had the same thing installed but using Runtime Installation. For some reason, my PC did not have 'bind date' etc. as an option in the workarounds, but user machines did have this workaround option. Strangely, although I did not have the option, my (ODBC) query was running as expected, but user queries were not.
When we set the workaround checkbox accordingly, the queries then run as expected (fast).
Once again,
Thanks

Different Cost values for full table scans

I have a very simple query that I run in two environments (Prod (20 CPU) and Dev (12 CPU)). Both environemtns are HPUX, oracle 9i.
The query looks like this:
SELECT prd70.jde_item_n
FROM gdw.vjda_gdwprd68_bom_cmpnt prd68
,gdw.vjda_gdwprd70_gallo_item prd70
WHERE prd70.jde_item_n = prd68.parnt_jde_item_n
AND prd68.last_eff_t+nvl(to_number(prd70.auto_hld_dy_n),0)>= trunc(sysdate)
GROUP BY prd70.jde_item_n
When I look at the explain plans, there is a significant difference in cost and I can't figure out why they would be different. Both queries do full table scans, both instances have about the same number of rows, statistics on both are fresh.
Production Plan:
0 SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=ALL_ROWS (Cost=18398 Card=14657 B
ytes=249169)
1 0 SORT (GROUP BY) (Cost=18398 Card=14657 Bytes=249169)
2 1 HASH JOIN (Cost=18304 Card=14657 Bytes=249169)
3 2 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'GDWPRD70_GALLO_ITEM' (Cost=949

4 2 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'GDWPRD68_BOM_CMPNT' (Cost=5887
Card=293149 Bytes=3224639)
Development plan:
0 SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=ALL_ROWS (Cost=3566 Card=14754 B
ytes=259214)
1 0 HASH GROUP BY (GROUP BY) (Cost=3566 Card=14754 Bytes=259214)
2 1 HASH JOIN (Cost=3558 Card=14754 Bytes=259214)
3 2 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'GDWPRD70_GALLO_ITEM' (Cost=1914
4 Card=193655 Bytes=1323598)
4 2 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'GDWPRD68_BOM_CMPNT' (Cost=1076
Card=295075 Bytes=3169542)
There seems to be no reason for the costs to be so different, but I'm hoping that someone will be able to lead me in the right direction.
Thanks,

This link may help:
http://jaffardba.blogspot.com/2007/07/change-behavior-of-group-by-clause-in.html
But looking at the explain plans one of them uses a SORT (GROUP BY) (higher cost query) and the other uses a HASH GROUP BY (GROUP BY) (lower cost query). From my searches on the `Net the HASH GROUP BY is a more efficient algorithm than the SORT (GROUP BY) which would lead me to believe that this is one of the reasons why the cost values are so different. I can't find which version HASH GROUP BY came in but quick searches indicate 10g for some reason.
Are your optimizer features parameter set to the same value? In general you could compare relevant parameters to see if there is a difference.
Hope this helps!

Why it is taking full table scan when index is available

Hi all,
I am facing a strange problem with index.
I created index on a column like
1. CREATE INDEX ASSETS_ARTIST_IDX2 ON ASSETS(artist).
SELECT asset.artist AS NAME FROM ASSETS asset WHERE asset.artist LIKE 'J%'
Explain Plan : INDEX RANGE SCAN
2. CREATE INDEX ASSETS_ARTIST_IDX2 ON ASSETS(UPPER (TRANSLATE (artist, ',;:"', ' ')));
SELECT asset.artist AS NAME FROM ASSETS asset WHERE UPPER (TRANSLATE (artist, ',;:"', ' ')) LIKE 'J%'
          Explain Plan : TABLE ACCESS FULL
first time it is taking index range scan,but in second situation scaning full table.Please let me know how to avoid the full table scan.

Actually, I misseunderstood damorgan' s statement about NULL and OP did not provide table definition. So based on FTS I would say it is more likely column is NULLable, otherwise I would expect INDEX FAST SCAN:

Full Table Scans and LRU

Hello,
In a full table scan I understand that the memory block used for a newly read table block is placed at the end of the LRU.
When the second table block is read, is the same memory block replaced?
What I am asking basically is whether for a full table scan only one block in the data buffer is ever used, with the same single block being recycled for the entire content of the table.
Kind regards,
Peter Strauss

Take care... oracle 10gR2 uses the system statistic values to calculate the costs (= execution plan) including the i/o statistics but for the multiple i/o it uses the parameter DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT.
So the result is: For calculating it uses the system statistic and for the work itself it uses DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT (if set).

For the LRU thing ... oracle has a nice explanation:

Data Federator Full Table scan

Hi,
Is it possible to prevent a Full table scan when creating a join between tables of 2 catalogues in a Data Federator?
This is seriously hampering the development time within Data Federator Development.
I am working with IDT Beta to create a Universe based on Multiple Source. The delay is so huge when creating joins that we could revert to Universe Design Tool. I have posted it here as Data Federator gurus will have tweak about IDT as it incorporates DF within itself in BI 4.0.
Any inputs will be great.. In case this is in the wrong forums, then please move it accordingly.

The issue was fixed when the GA was released. This was present in Beta

Select statement in a function does Full Table Scan

All,
I have been coding a stored procedure that writes 38K rows in less than a minute. If I add another column which requires call to a package and 4 functions within that package, it runs for about 4 hours. I have confirmed that due to problems in one of the functions, the code does full table scans. The package and all of its functions were written by other contractors who have been long gone.
Please note that case_number_in (VARCHAR2) and effective_date_in (DATE) are parameters sent to the problem function and I have verified through TOAD’s debugger that their values are correct.
Table named ps2_benefit_register has over 40 million rows but case_number is an index for that table.
Table named ps1_case_fs has more than 20 million rows but also uses case_number as an index.
Select #1 – causes full table scan runs and writes 38K rows in a couple of hours.
{case}
SELECT max(a2.application_date)
INTO l_app_date
FROM dwfssd.ps2_benefit_register a1, dwfssd.ps2_case_fs a2
WHERE a2.case_number = case_number_in and
a1.case_number = a2.case_number and
a2.application_date <= effective_date_in and
a1.DOCUMENT_TYPE = 'F';
{case}
Select #2 – runs – hard coding values makes the code to write the same 38K rows in a few minutes.
{case}
SELECT max(a2.application_date)
INTO l_app_date
FROM dwfssd.ps2_benefit_register a1, dwfssd.ps2_case_fs a2
WHERE a2.case_number = 'A006438' and
a1.case_number = a2.case_number and
a2.application_date <= '01-Apr-2009' and
a1.DOCUMENT_TYPE = 'F';
{case}
Why using the values in the passed parameter in the first select statement causes full table scan?
Thank you for your help,
Seyed

URGENT HELP Required: Solution to avoid Full table scan for a PL/SQL query

Hi Everyone,
When I checked the EXPLAIN PLAN for the below SQL query, I saw that Full table scans is going on both the tables TABLE_A and TABLE_B
UPDATE TABLE_A a
SET a.current_commit_date =
(SELECT MAX (b.loading_date)
FROM TABLE_B b
WHERE a.sales_order_id = b.sales_order_id
AND a.sales_order_line_id = b.sales_order_line_id
AND b.confirmed_qty > 0
AND b.data_flag IS NULL
OR b.schedule_line_delivery_date >= '23 NOV 2008')
Though the TABLE_A is a small table having nearly 1 lakh records, the TABLE_B is a huge table, having nearly 2 and a half crore records.
I created an Index on the TABLE_B having all its fields used in the WHERE clause. But, still the explain plan is showing FULL TABLE SCAN only.
When I run the query, it is taking long long time to execute (more than 1 day) and each time I have to kill the session.
Please please help me in optimizing this.
Thanks,
Sudhindra

Check the instruction again, you're leaving out information we need in order to help you, like optimizer information.
- Post your exact database version, that is: the result of select * from v$version;
- Don't use TOAD's execution plan, but use
SQL> explain plan for <your_query>;
SQL> select * from table(dbms_xplan.display);(You can execute that in TOAD as well).
Don't forget you need to use the {noformat}{noformat} tag in order to post formatted code/output/execution plans etc.
It's also explained in the instruction.
When was the last time statistics were gathered for table_a and table_b?
You can find out by issuing the following query:select table_name
, last_analyzed
, num_rows
from user_tables
where table_name in ('TABLE_A', 'TABLE_B');
Can you also post the results of these counts;select count(*)
from table_b
where confirmed_qty > 0;
select count(*)
from table_b
where data_flag is null;
select count(*)
from table_b
where schedule_line_delivery_date >= /* assuming you're using a date, and not a string*/ to_date('23 NOV 2008', 'dd mon yyyy');

Preventing Discoverer using Full Table Scans with Decode in a View

Hi Forum,
Hope you are can help, it involves a performance issues when creating a Report / Query in Discoverer.
I have a Discoverer Report that currently takes less than 5 seconds to run. After I add a condition to bring back Batch Status that = Posted we cancelled the query after reaching 20 minutes as this is way too long. If I remove the condition the query time goes back to less than 5 seconds. Changing the condition to Batch Status that = Unposted returns the query in seconds.
Ive been doing some digging and have found the database view that is linked to the Journal Batches folder in Discoverer. See at end of post.
I think the problem is with the column using DECODE. When querying the column in TOAD the value of P is returned. But in discoverer the condition is done on the value Posted. Im not too sure how DECODE works, but think this could be the causing some sort of issue with Full Table Scans.
Any idea how do we get around this?

How to avoid full Table scan when using Rule based optimizer (Oracle817)

1. We have a Oracle 8.1.7 DB, and the optimizer_mode is set to "RULE"
2. There are three indexes on table cm_contract_supply, which is a large table having 28732830 Rows, and average row length 149 Bytes
COLUMN_NAME INDEX_NAME
PROGRESS_RECID XAK11CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMPANY_CODE XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
CONTRACT_NUMBER XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COUNTRY_CODE XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
SUPPLY_TYPE_CODE XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
VERSION_NUMBER XIE1CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
CAMPAIGN_CODE XIF1290CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMPANY_CODE XIF1290CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COUNTRY_CODE XIF1290CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
SUPPLIER_BP_ID XIF801CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMMISSION_LETTER_CODE XIF803CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMPANY_CODE XIF803CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COUNTRY_CODE XIF803CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COMPANY_CODE XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
CONTRACT_NUMBER XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
COUNTRY_CODE XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
SUPPLY_SEQUENCE_NUMBER XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
VERSION_NUMBER XPKCM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY
3. We are querying the table for a particular contract_number and version_number. We want to avoid full table scan.
SELECT /*+ INDEX(XAK11CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY) */
rowid, pms.cm_contract_supply.*
FROM pms.cm_contract_supply
WHERE
contract_number = '0000000000131710'
AND version_number = 3;
However despite of giving hint, query results are fetched after full table scan.
Execution Plan
0 SELECT STATEMENT Optimizer=RULE (Cost=1182 Card=1 Bytes=742)
1 0 TABLE ACCESS (FULL) OF 'CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY' (Cost=1182 Card=1 Bytes=742)
4. I have tried giving
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS + INDEX(XAK11CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY) */
rowid, pms.cm_contract_supply.*
FROM pms.cm_contract_supply
WHERE
contract_number = '0000000000131710'
AND version_number = 3;
and
SELECT /*+ CHOOSE + INDEX(XAK11CM_CONTRACT_SUPPLY) */
rowid, pms.cm_contract_supply.*
FROM pms.cm_contract_supply
WHERE
contract_number = '0000000000131710'
AND version_number = 3;
But it does not work.
Is there some way without changing optimizer mode and without creating an additional index, we can use the index instead of full table scan?

I've tried to look thru your sql and changed it a bit. Of course not testet :-)
Your problem isn't the archive table! I tried to remove the 2 selects from the select-clause. Furthermore you have a lot of nested loops in your explain, which is a performance-killer. Try getting rid of them, perhaps use /*+ USE_HASH(?,?) */.

Slow queries and full table scans in spite of context index

I have defined a USER_DATASTORE, which uses a PL/SQL procedure to compile data from several tables. The master table has 1.3 million rows, and one of the fields being joined is a CLOB field.
The resulting token table has 65,000 rows, which seems about right.
If I query the token table for a word, such as "ORACLE" in the token_text field, I see that the token_count is 139. This query returns instantly.
The query against the master table is very slow, taking about 15 minutes to return the 139 rows.
Example query:
select hnd from master_table where contains(myindex,'ORACLE',1) > 0;
I've run a sql_trace on this query, and it shows full table scans on both the master table and the DR$MYINDEX$I table. Why is it doing this, and how can I fix it?

After looking at the tuning FAQ, I can see that this is doing a functional lookup instead of an indexed lookup. But why, when the rows are not constrained by any structural query, and how can I get it to instead to an indexed lookup?
Thanks in advance,
Annie

Any particular reason why you have a non-default value for a hidden parameter, optimizercost_based_transformation ?
On my 10.2.0.1 database, its default value is "linear". What happens when you reset the value of the hidden parameter to default?

Hi,
welcome,
how is the query performing if you delete all the hints for PARALLEL, because most of the waits are related to waits on Parallel.

Finding the Text of SQL Query causing Full Table Scans

Hi,
does anyone have a sql script, that shows the complete sql text of queries that have caused a full table scan?
Please also let me know as to how soon this script needs to be run, in the sense does it work only while the query is running or would it work once it completes (if so is there a valid duration, such as until next restart, etc.)
Your help is appreciated.
Thx,
Mayuran
