Use of PLSExtProc and key EXTPROC in Oracle 10g

Hi Friends,
My listener file has the following values:
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracleinfra)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xyz.local)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
My question is ?
What is the use of the Instance PLSExtProc and key EXTPROC?
Is it must to have the entry ,shall i remove the entry? what will be the implications if i remove the entries?Please suggest
Regards,
DB

Its used for external procedure calls like from Java and C. Its not a must and from the secuirty point of view, its actually a loophole. For more information, please read,

  • Porting data from Oracle8i to XML and from XML  to Oracle 10g

    Hai
    I have a client database (using oracle 8i) and a server database (oracle 10g).
    Due to lack of leased line connectivity i want to port these offline data from 8i to 10g
    using a modem(dial up connection).Is there is any way to port data from 8i to XML
    and from XML to 10g.
    thanks in advance
    dejies

    Thanks Nicolas,
    As per documentation, it seems to be difficult for export/import from Oracle8i to 10g. Is that any way to achieve this? I have to append the newly imported data with old or exisiting data into Oracle10g.

  • Can I use OC4J only and not the full Oracle AppServer?

    When I install Oracle SoaSuite then the full Oracle Application Server including the little brother OC4J
    is installed. Can I somehow (at least theoretically) only install/use the OC4J server and omit the full Oracle ApplicationServer?
    Peter

    SOA Suite is certified only against the Oracle Application Server. You need to have/run on this, or on WebLogic.

  • Displaying both Hindi and Arabic numerals in Oracle 10g PDF report

    Hi….
    Oracle experts told us to ask “In how many ways we can do it in oracle?” instead of asking “Can we do it in Oracle?” , I need ONE way to solve the following problem, it toke to much time and I don’t know if it can be solved !
    The problem:
    Can we print in - Oracle 10g reports - a PDF report with BOTH Hindi and Arabic numerals?
    Well, at design time everything is fine, you can use right-to-left, left-to-right and the print preview is showing BOTH Hindi/Arabic numerals fine, but when I tried to produce it as a PDF, unfortunately its not, means its either all Hindi or all Arabic numerals !
    I tried everything possible, environment variables: NLS_LANG, REPORTS_BIDI_ALGORITHM, and REPORTS_ARABIC_NUMERLS, setting Digit substitution to Context in windows regional settings, uifont.ali is modified properly according to metalink note, but nothing solved this issue!
    I noticed something, when I used the DESTYPE=printer and DESNAME=PDF995 (one of the PDF printers) , it worked fine , means the problem could be in the generic PDF generator of the Oracle reports server,
    But even with PDF995 you still need to feed the file name, which is not suitable for multi-user environment that need the report to be displayed via web browser.
    Does anybody face this before?

  • Can we control user request w.r.t Memory and CPU utilization in Oracle 10g

    Dear All,
    We are having Production with Oracle 10.2.0.4 (5 Node RAC, 32Gb RAM each) running on RHEL5.2 with 12000 Users. We have some schema say FIN, HRMS, SALES, REPORT and many dedicated users for those schemas. We need to control the user request against these schema with respect to Memory (or CPU utilization)
    Suppose users using FIN schema can use Maximum 40 % of Total Memory, HRMS schema can use Max 20%, SALES can use Max 20% and REPORT can use Max 20%.
    Is it possible to create any Service in Server side to handle this type of scenareo or any existing service which can be customised to fullfil this?
    Please suggest me.......
    Thanks,

    JDBC 'applications' quite often don't use persistent connections, and often do not exit gracefully by calling 'exit' or 'disconnect'.
    This means the session will continue to exist.
    It also means, if you don't establish any form of connection pooling and/or dead connection detection, you can throw whatever amount of memory in the server, and you will continue to report
    'Now problems is coming'. Apart from crippled English, the general lesson any DBA should know is how these 'applications' operate, and, contrary to some, you can never ever fight problems caused by applications,
    by throwing memory and cpu at the problem.
    When I read your text, I also assume the application is not using PrepareStatement calls and not using bindvariables, this is why your 'application' is burning the CPU.
    Find those 'application developers', sue them, or better still : Beat them with a whip, and have them fix their 'crapplication'.
    Paraphrasing William Jefferson Clinton: It's the application, stupid!

  • My computer slows down and hangs after installing oracle 10g

    My computer just slows down after installing oracle 10g. I have a pentium 4 3ghz with 512 memory (32 mb used by graphics built in card). It slows down and hanged even if I agjusted the swap memory to 800 mb. I have two swap file/page file - in drive c and drive d. I even cannot shut it down because it takes maybe 30 minutes just to see the "shut-off/log-off" screen.

    Before starting up Oracle, when you go to the task manager, how much RAM does it show actually free? 512 MB is pretty small to run Oracle in the first place-- Windows and Office can use a fair chunk of RAM themselves, depending on which Office apps you are running. You may also be suprised by the amount of RAM that a web browser, email client, and the various other apps that folks generally install can use.

  • MBRC and SYSTEM STATISTICS in Oracle 10g database.

    Hi All,
    I am performing database upgrade from Oracle 8i Solaris to Oracle 10g HP-UX using exp/imp method.
    But i do have some doubts regarding MBRC and System statistics.
    MBRC in Oracle 10g is automatically adjusted if MBRC parameter is not set, but i found value 128 as shown below.
    SQL> select * from v$version;
    BANNER
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
    PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
    CORE    10.2.0.4.0      Production
    TNS for HPUX: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
    SQL> sho parameter multi
    NAME                                 TYPE                             VALUE
    db_file_multiblock_read_count        integer                          128Also i performed one simple full table scan to test it...but db file scattered read is performing on 128 blocks. So i dont think 128 is suitable and is automatic, i mean MBRC is not set accrodingly it always uses 128.
    Does this MBRC value affects whole database performance?
    Regarding SYSTEM STATISTICS i found below result:
    SQL> select * from AUX_STATS$
    SNAME                          PNAME                               PVAL1 PVAL2
    SYSSTATS_INFO                  STATUS                                    COMPLETED

Is it really require to gather system statistics, what will happen with NOWORLOAD stats?
    I have not seen single database where system stats are gathered in our organisation having more than 2000 databases.

  • Row chaining and row migration in Oracle 10g R2/11g R2

    Hi,
    Due to the business rule changes, one of the numeric column in a large table (20 millions rows) will be expanded from number(8) to number(10). Also, the values of this column of each row will be updated from 6 digits to 10 digits. All the indexes that use this column will be dropped and recreated after update. I would like to know if there is any row chaining or row migration issue in Oracle 10g R2 /11g R2.
    Thanks for your help

    ORA 1542 - tablespace 'USER' is offline and cannot allocate space in it.how to resolve it

    Hello,
    I see two questions.
    ORA 1542 - tablespace 'USER' is offline and cannot allocate space in it.how to resolve it About the error ORA-01542 you have to bring the Tablespace USERS online:
    http://www.error-code.org.uk/view.asp?e=ORACLE-ORA-01542
    If you cannot bring it online you may have to Recover it first.
    I have been trying export and import options in oracle but m not very clear about the procedure..About the Export in 10g and Import in 9i (9.2 or 9.0.1 ?), you have to export with the Export utility of the Target Database (the lowest Database version here: 9.0.1 or 9.2) then, you have to Import to the Target Database using its Import utility (in 9.0.1 or 9.2).

    Hi,
    What do yyou mean by "it's not working"?
    Maybe you could use sign function, instead.
    with t as (select 2 x, 3 y from dual union all
               select 2 x, 1 y from dual union all
               select 2 x, 2 y from dual)
