Using dbms_metadata to get defination of large table

Hi,
I have very very large table definition table with partitions and sub-partitions and I want to create that table in some other db.
I am trying below spooled query but its not retrieving complete definition of the table, any other setting I should follow
spool t.sql
set pagesize 0
set long 2000000
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl
I am using oracle 10g r2
Thanks,
Pankaj

Thanks you all for your replied, following are observation after settings suggested
With setting
==================
set longchunksize 2000000
set long 2000000
set lines 2000
set pages 0
-sh-3.00$ cat t.sql | wc
10819 23419 21635001
=================
With setting
set long 100000
set pages 0
-sh-3.00$ cat t.sql | wc
3452 7326 279269
Result => None worked for me :(

Using dbms_metadata to get ddl for creating directories

Hi,
I am working on creating a test database, which is a copy of production for 11g upgrade testing. I want to get all the ddls from my production databse to create all the directories in the new test database. I have been trying to use dbms_metadata for this -
Below is the code that I have been trying to use. However, when I query the my_metadata table, there is nothing in there. Can someone please help me with this?
DROP TABLE my_metadata;
CREATE TABLE my_metadata(md CLOB);
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE progp1_directories_extract
AS
hndl NUMBER; --dbms_metadata handle
th NUMBER; --transform handle
DDL CLOB; --individual clobs extracted from the database
BEGIN
hndl := DBMS_METADATA.OPEN ('DATABASE_EXPORT'); --Open the metadata
DBMS_METADATA.set_filter (hndl, 'INCLUDE_PATH_EXPR', '=''DIRECTORY'''); --Filter data as appropriate
th := DBMS_METADATA.add_transform (hndl, 'DDL'); --Get the Transform Handle
DBMS_METADATA.set_transform_param (th, 'SQLTERMINATOR', TRUE); --Include the semicolon
LOOP
DDL := DBMS_METADATA.fetch_clob (hndl); --Loop through the result set, inserting into our temp table
EXIT WHEN DDL IS NULL;
INSERT INTO my_metadata
(md)
VALUES (DDL);

I can't see the bit where you actually try to execute the procedure - I assume you are doing this.
One killer feature of your code is the "when others then null" - you're not going to know where and why your code failed.
Taking a guess: are you running this as SYS ? If not then it's possible that you're not finding any data because of some feature in the way that the code sees the directory objects - they're always owned by SYS.
Although your code (when corrected) will generate the grants on the directories, the following is sufficient to generate the "create directory" statements. (Since all directories are owned by SYS it's actually an error to reference an owner in this query -- that means, by the way, that the answer you've marked as correct doesn't actually work).
select
     dbms_metadata.get_ddl('DIRECTORY',directory_name)
from
     dba_directories

Using dbms_metadata.get_ddl to capture the alter table

Hi there,
I know you can capture table ddl using dbms_metadata.get_ddl. However, I want to capture all the changes after the table got created. If you created a table then add one or more columns. I just want to capture the change as the new columns added.
Here's an example.
Create table test (id number, name varchar2(20);
then
alter table test add (type varchar2(40);
I want to capture the syntax "alter table test add (type varchar(40)". Is this possible?
Thanks

I dont belive you could easily use dbma_metadata to do this... but you can use a database or schema level trigger e.g. :
create or replace trigger test.test_trigger
AFTER ALTER
ON DATABASE
DECLARE
sql_text ora_name_list_t;
v_stmt VARCHAR2(2000);
n number;
BEGIN
n := ora_sql_txt(sql_text);
FOR i IN 1..n
LOOP
v_stmt := v_stmt || sql_text(i);
END LOOP;
INSERT INTO test.test_table2
VALUES
(v_stmt);
END;
This will capture all alter commands fired at the database... so you would then need to filter them using the System-Defined Event Attributes see

How to get data from large table (more than 9 million rows) by EJB?

I have a giant table, it has more than 9 million rows.
I want to use ejb finders method to get data from this table but always get not enough memory error or time out error,
Can anyone give me solutions?
Thx

Your problem may be that you are simply trying to load so many objects (found by your finder) that you are exceeding available memory. For example if each object is 100 bytes and you try to load 1,000,000 objects thats 100Mb of memory gone.
You could try increasing the amount of memory available to OC4J with the appropriate argument on the command line (or in the 10gAS console). For example to make 1Gb available to OC4J you would add the argument:
-Xmx1000m
Of course you need have this available as hard memory on your server or you will incur serious swapping.

How to use dbms_metadata to get object grants for an OBJECT?

Hi guys. I've already searched around for DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL but couldn't really find what i'm looking for.
The regular use-case for the procedure is to find all grants given to a specific user. What if I wanted to find out what grants were related to a table? I only saw grant-related queries like the following:
SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('ROLE_GRANT','SYS') FROM DUAL;
SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('SYSTEM_GRANT','SYS') FROM DUAL;
SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('OBJECT_GRANT','SYS') FROM DUAL;
SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_GRANTED_DDL('TABLESPACE_QUOTA','SYS') FROM DUAL;I already have the SQL query to find this sort of stuff out:
-- get rights granted to PUBLIC on a certain PL/SQL package (ie. DBMS_JAVA)
set pagesize 9999 linesize 100
col grantee format a20
col owner format a8
col table_name format a30
col grantor format a8
col privilege format a10
col hierarchy format a3
select unique grantee
     ,tp.owner
     ,table_name
     ,grantor
     ,privilege
     ,grantable
     ,hierarchy
from dba_tab_privs tp
left join dba_objects o on tp.owner=o.owner AND tp.table_name=o.object_name
where table_name in ('ABC','DEF','GHI'); ... but I was hoping to recreate the metadata instead. Thanks!

Using DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL get error: ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis

Hi,
I'm trying to extract schema DDL from a database (10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Enterprise Edition on Solaris 10). I run the query below and get an ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis error.
SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL( REPLACE(object_type,' ','_') AS object_type, object_name) FROM user_objects WHERE object_type NOT IN ('TABLE_PARTITION','INDEX_PARTITION','LOB');
This is the output when running the above in sqlplus worksheet
select DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL( REPLACE(object_type,' ','_') as object_type, object_name) FROM user_objects where object_type not in ('TABLE_PARTITION','INDEX_PARTITION','LOB')
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis
removing the where clause gives the following:
select DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL( REPLACE(object_type,' ','_') as object_type, object_name) FROM user_objects
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00907: missing right parenthesis
Any pointers would be gratefully received. I know I could get the DDL out using exp/imp but I want to understand why I'm getting the missing parenthesis error.
cheers,
Ewan

SELECT DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL( REPLACE(object_type,' ','_') AS object_type, object_name) FROM user_objects WHERE object_type NOT IN You don't need an alias here. Get rid of " AS object_type" and it should work.

Split a large table into multiple packages - R3load/MIGMON

Hello,
We are in the process of reducing the export and import downtime for the UNICODE migration/Conversion.
In this process, we have identified couple of large tables which were taking long time to export and import by a single R3load process.
Step 1:> We ran the System Copy --> Export Preparation
Step 2:> System Copy --> Table Splitting Preparation
We have created a file with the large tables which are required to split into multiple packages and where able to create a total of 3 WHR files for the following table under DATA directory of main EXPORT directory.
SplitTables.txt (Name of the file used in the SAPINST)
CATF%2
E071%2
Which means, we would like each of the above large tables to be exported using 2 R3load processes.
Step 3:> System Copy --> Database and Central Instance Export
During the SAPInst process at Split STR files screen , we have selected the option 'Split Predefined Tables' and select the file which has predefined tables.
Filename: SplitTable.txt
CATF
E071
When we started the export process, we haven't seen the above tables been processed by mutiple R3load processes.
They were exported by a Single R3load processes.
In the order_by.txt file, we have found the following entries...
order_by.txt----
# generated by SAPinst at: Sat Feb 24 08:33:39 GMT-0700 (Mountain
Standard Time) 2007
default package order: by name
CATF
D010TAB
DD03L
DOKCLU
E071
GLOSSARY
REPOSRC
SAP0000
SAPAPPL0_1
SAPAPPL0_2
We have selected a total of 20 parallel jobs.
Here my questions are:
a> what are we doing wrong here?
b> Is there a different way to specify/define a large table into multiple packages, so that they get exported by multiple R3load processes?
I really appreciate your response.
Thank you,
Nikee

Hi Haleem,
As for your queries are concerned -
1. With R3ta , you will split large tables using WHERE clause. WHR files get generated. If you have mentioned CDCLS%2 in the input file for table splitting, then it generates 2~3 WHR files CDCLS-1, CDCLS-2 & CDCLS-3 (depending upon WHERE conditions)
2. While using MIGMON ( for sequencial / parallel export-import process), you have the choice of Package Order in th e properties file.
E.g : For Import - In the import_monitor_cmd.properties, specify
Package order: name | size | file with package names
orderBy=/upgexp/SOURCE/pkg_imp_order.txt
And in the pkg_imp_txt, I have specified the import package order as
BSIS-7
CDCLS-3
SAPAPPL1_184
SAPAPPL1_72
CDCLS-2
SAPAPPL2_2
CDCLS-1
Similarly , you can specify the Export package order as well in the export properties file ...
I hope this clarifies your doubt
Warm Regards,

Efficiently Querying Large Table

I have to query a recordset of 14k records against (join) a very large table: billions of data -even a count of the table does not return any resulty after 15 mins.
I tried a plsql procedure to store the first recordset in a temp table and then preparing two cursors: one on the temp table and the other on the large table.
However, the plsql procedure runs for a long time and just gives up with this error:
SQL> exec match;
ERROR:
ORA-01041: internal error. hostdef extension doesn't exist
BEGIN match; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
Is there is way through which I can query more efficiently?
- Using chucks of records from the large table at a time - how to do that? (rowid)
- Or just ask the dba to partition the table - but the whole table would still need to be queried.
The temp table is:
CREATE TABLE test AS SELECT a.mon_ord_no, a.mo_type_id, a.p2a_pbu_id, a.creation_date,b.status_date_time,
a.expiry_date, a.current_mo_status_desc_id, a.amount,
a.purchaser_name, a.recipent_name, a.mo_id_type_id,
a.mo_redeemed_by_id, a.recipient_type, c.pbu_id, c.txn_seq_no, c.txn_date_time
FROM mon_order a, mo_status b, host_txn_log c
where a.mon_ord_no = b.mon_ord_no
and a.mon_ord_no = c.mon_ord_no
and b.status_date_time = c.txn_date_time
and b.status_desc_id = 7
and a.current_mo_status_desc_id = 7
and a.amount is not null
and a.amount > 0
order by b.status_date_time;
and the PL/SQL Procedure is:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE MATCH
IS
--DECLARE
deleted INTEGER :=0;
counter INTEGER :=0;
CURSOR v_table IS
     SELECT DISTINCT pbu_id, txn_seq_no, create_date
     FROM host_v
     WHERE status = 4;
v_table_record v_table%ROWTYPE;
CURSOR temp_table (v_pbu_id NUMBER, v_txn_seq_no NUMBER, v_create_date DATE) IS
     SELECT * FROM test
     WHERE pbu_id = v_pbu_id
     AND txn_seq_no = v_txn_seq_no
     AND creation_date = v_create_date;
temp_table_record temp_table%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
OPEN v_table;
LOOP
FETCH v_table INTO voucher_table_record;
EXIT WHEN v_table%NOTFOUND;
OPEN temp_table (v_table_record.pbu_id, v_table_record.txn_seq_no, v_table_record.create_date);
LOOP
FETCH temp_table INTO temp_table_record;
EXIT WHEN temp_table %FOUND;
     DELETE FROM test WHERE pbu_id = v_table_record.pbu_id AND
               temp_table_record.txn_seq_no = v_table_record.txn_seq_no AND
               temp_table_record.creation_date = v_table_record.create_date;
END LOOP;
CLOSE temp_table;
END LOOP;
CLOSE v_table;
END MATCH;

Many thanks,
I can get the explain plan for the SQL statement, but I am not sure how to get it for teh PLSQL. Which section in the PLSQL do I get the explain plan. I am using SQL Navigator.
I can create the cursor with the join, and if it does not need the delete statement, then there is no need requirement for the procedure itself. Should I just run the query as a SQL statement?
You have not said what I should do with the rowid?

How to get selected row from table(FacesCtrlHierBinding ).

I'am trying to get selected row data from table:
FacesCtrlHierBinding rowBinding = (FacesCtrlHierBinding) tab.getSelectedRow();
Row rw = rowBinding.getRow();
But import for oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.model.binding.FacesCtrlHierBinding cannot be found from my JDev 11.
What is correct package for FacesCtrlHierBinding?

Hi, another problem.
I fill table with data manualy from source:
<af:table var="row" value="#{getCompanyData.com}"
rowSelection="single" columnSelection="single"
editingMode="clickToEdit"
binding="#{getCompanyData.tab}"
selectionListener="#{getCompanyData.GetSelectedCompany}">
<af:column sortable="false" headerText="col1">
<af:outputText value="#{row.id}"/>
</af:column>
<af:column sortable="false" headerText="col2">
<af:outputText value="#{row.name}"/>
</af:column>
<af:column sortable="false" headerText="col3">
<af:outputText value="#{row.phone}"/>
</af:column>
</af:table>
and when I'am trying to use method to get selected row:
RichTable table = this.getTab(); //get table bound to UI Table
RowKeySet rowKeys = table.getSelectedRowKeys();
Iterator selection = table.getSelectedRowKeys().iterator();
while (selection.hasNext())
Object key = selection.next();
table.setRowKey(key);
Object selCompany = table.getRowData();
JUCtrlHierNodeBinding rowData = (JUCtrlHierNodeBinding) selCompany;
row = rowData.getRow();
I got an error:
SEVERE: Server Exception during PPR, #1
javax.el.ELException: java.lang.ClassCastException: data.COMPANY cannot be cast to oracle.jbo.uicli.binding.JUCtrlHierNodeBinding
When I created tables by dragging data from date control, all worked fine.
What could be a problem?

Getting table script using dbms_metadata.get_ddl, but with clob field

So, Oracle 11g R2..
I'm using dbms_metadata.get_ddl to get table scripts and it's working fine..
now, I have a table with clob field, and it's not working... I got an 'missing right parenthesis (ora-0907)' error...
I could paste a script that I got, but I don't think it makes any sense..
does anybody have some experience on using this package on clob tables?
tnx

this is script that I got... it's long, and it looks like it's not good

CTAS using dbms_metadata.get_ddl for Partitioned table

Hi,
I would like to create a temporary table from a partitioned table using CTAS. I plan to use the following steps in a PL/SQL procedure:
1. Use dbms_metadata.get_ddl to get the script
2. Use raplace function to change the tablename to temptable
3. execute the script to get the temp table created.
SQL> create or replace procedure p1 as
2 l_clob clob;
3 str long;
4 begin
5 SELECT dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLE', 'FACT_TABLE','USER1') into l_clob FROM DUAL;
6 dbms_output.put_line('CLOB Length:'||dbms_lob.getlength(l_clob));
7 str:=dbms_lob.substr(l_clob,dbms_lob.getlength(l_clob),1);
8 dbms_output.put_line('DDL:'||str);
9 end;
12 /
Procedure created.
SQL> exec p1;
CLOB Length:73376
DDL:
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
I cannot see the DDL at all. Please help.

Thanks Adam. The following piece of code is supposed to do that. But, its failing because the dbms_lob.substr(l_clob,4000,4000*v_intIdx +1); is putting newline and therefore dbms_sql.parse
is failing.
Please advice.
create table my_metadata(stmt_no number, ddl_stmt clob);
CREATE OR REPLACE package USER1.genTempTable is
procedure getDDL;
procedure createTempTab;
end;

To get rid of Schema name in output using DBMS_METADATA

Hi all,
Would someone be able to tell me how to get rid of the schema name output given by the below select stmt.
Query
Select Dbms_metadata.Get_ddl('FUNCTION','ACCOUNT_CODE')
from dual;
Result
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION "GOINGLIVE"."ACCOUNT_CODE" (PTransCode VarChar2,.............
I checked for the documentation, but could manage to eliminate only storage clauses, tablespace etc. but not teh schema name.
Please provide your advise on this.
Thanks
- Sandeep

Which version are you on?
In 10g, you can use DBMS_METADATA.SET_REMAP_PARAM to get rid of schema name:
SQL> create table md_test(x int, y varchar2(10));
Table created.
SQL> declare
2    l_ctx number;
3    l_ctxt number;
4    l_ddl sys.ku$_ddls;
5 begin
6    l_ctx := dbms_metadata.open('TABLE');
7    dbms_metadata.set_filter(l_ctx, 'NAME', 'MD_TEST');
8    l_ctxt := dbms_metadata.add_transform(l_ctx, 'MODIFY');
9    dbms_metadata.set_remap_param(l_ctxt, 'REMAP_SCHEMA', user, null);
10    l_ctxt := dbms_metadata.add_transform(l_ctx, 'DDL');
11    dbms_metadata.set_transform_param(l_ctxt, 'SEGMENT_ATTRIBUTES', false);
12    l_ddl := dbms_metadata.fetch_ddl(l_ctx);
13    dbms_output.put_line(l_ddl(1).ddltext);
14    dbms_metadata.close(l_ctx);
15 end;

How to get all rows in table to red using alternate rows properties option

How to get all rows in table to red using alternate rows properties option

Hi Khrisna,
You can get all rows red by selecting the color red in the "Color" and "frequency" to 1 under the "Alternate Row/Column colors".
I tried doing it and the colors freaked me out (all red) :-D
Kindly tell me if im missing something.
Regards,
