What permissions needed to view index statistics for a database?

Im trying to setup a job that will read index statistics about a given database. The system management views are in Master.
Im trying to test the permissions for the login that will be used by doing Execute As, but Im getting permission errors such as
The user does not have permission to perform this action. Also, since the login is a domain account mapped to a sql login, I cant simply login as that user to run the statement.
So what permissions would be needed to run the statement below? I can run it without issue, but ive got Admin rights. I really dont want to give this user admin rights
--Missing index count
SELECT @MissingIndexCount = COUNT(*)
FROM sys.dm_db_missing_index_groups mig
INNER JOIN sys.dm_db_missing_index_group_stats migs ON migs.group_handle = mig.index_group_handle
INNER JOIN sys.dm_db_missing_index_details mid ON mig.index_handle = mid.index_handle
INNER JOIN sys.databases db ON mid.database_id = db.database_id
WHERE migs.avg_total_user_cost * (migs.avg_user_impact / 100.0) * (migs.user_seeks + migs.user_scans) > 10
AND db.name = 'My Database Name'
[update]
I think I found my answer here

Hi
I think you'll need
VIEW SERVER STATE for the dmvs and
VIEW AND DATABASE for sys.databases.
There's a "permissions" section in the documentation for each of these objects, e.g.
sys.databases

I have copied many photo's from another laptop to my Mac. The older photo's are in directories with names that help me select what I need to view. I would like to have all my imported new photo's also bee added to the directory structure I have in Finder

I have copied many photo's from another laptop to my Mac. The older photo's are in directories with names that help me select what I need to view. I would like to have all my imported new photo's also bee added to the directory structure I have in Finder but my new photo's are all in iPhoto. I want to use directories for storing and iPhoto for viewing. Is this possible or do I need to have all my photo's in iPhoto??
Mitch

iPhoto is not a Photo Viewer. It's a Photo Manager and designed for looking after the files while you organise the Photos. It really works much better if you let it manage those files. If you use iPhoto you never go near those files because iPhoto is your start point for anything you want to do with your Photos - the point of the pplication.
You can run iPhoto in Referenced mode, where it does not copy the files to the Library, but I caution you that you are making life a lot more difficult for yourself by doing that.
How to, and some comments on why you shouldn't, are in this thread

How can I view my pictures that were backed up to iTunes? I no longer have an apple product but need to view the pictures for very important reasons.

How can I view my pictures that were backed up to iTunes? I no longer have an apple product but need to view the pictures for very important reasons.

If you mean backed up as part of an iPhone backup in iTunes? If so, you would have to use 3rd party software to extract them from the backup, such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

What kind of storage we should use for oracle database?

Hi
thank you for reading my post
Can some one please explain what kind of hardware storage is common for oracle database, and kindly please provide some explanations about the reason that we can use such storage?

Perhaps you're thinking about RAID, an acronym for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks? That's not specific to Oracle by any means, it's a very common way of setting up multiple disks in a server so that the failure of one or two disks doesn't cause the system to lose any data. If you're dealing with a server of any size or any sort of SAN or NAS device, it is going to use RAID, the question is which form of RAID (there are different sorts of configurations with different levels of cost, performance, and durability).

Permissions needed to view and close open files

Hi all,
We have a 2012 R2 file server, and we would like to give Helpdesk permissions to view open files on that file server, and close them if necessary if someone complains that it is locked.
What is the minimum permissions needed to accomplish this as we do not want to give them Administrator group access.
Thanks

Hi,
You can give Helpdesk only read permissions to view, open and close files on the file server.
For more detailed information, please see:
NTFS Permissions, Part 2

The AGE_1 is the difference in days between the 'CREATE_DATE' and IF EXSIST the STEP 'U' then STEP_DATE or if the STEP 'U' is not found in TABLE_2 then it should show the difference in days between the 'CREATE_DATE' and the 'SYSDATE'
The AGE_2 is the difference in days between the STEP 'A' STEP_DATE and IF EXSIST the STEP 'R' then STEP_DATE or if the STEP 'R' is not found in TABLE_2 then it should show the difference in days between the 'CREATE_DATE' and the 'SYSDATE'
The WAITING is the difference in days between CREATE_DATE and STEP 'A' STEP_DATE
The following columns show the days how long the ORDER_NR stays in these STEP, if an ORDER_NR comes into the same STEP more then one time it should be calculated together.
If the ORDER_NR skips a step it should show a zero in the specific field.
I hope my explanation is good enough, my english skills are far away from good.
Thanks all for your help.

          ) - t1.create_date age_2,
        sum(
            case t2.wo_step
              when 'B' then t2.next_step_date - t2.step_date
            end
           ) step_b
from table_1 t1,
        t2
where t2.order_nr = t1.order_nr
group by t1.order_nrthen i get the ORA-00979 Error.
Whats wrong?
I have another question.
How can i handle i i want to group to or more 'STEP's in one Column.
in Case of this i want that the column 'STEP_B' contains all days for STEP 'B' and STEP '5'.
I tried already with a + Operation like this:
with t2 as (
            select t.*,
                    lead(step_date) over(partition by order_nr order by step_date) next_step_date
              from table_2 t
select t1.*,
        nvl(
            max(
                case t2.wo_step
                  when 'U' then t2.step_date
                end
           sysdate
          ) - t1.create_date age_1,
        nvl(
            max(
                case t2.wo_step
                  when 'R' then t2.step_date
                end
           sysdate
          ) - t1.create_date age_2,
        Round( sum(
            case t2.wo_step
              when 'B' then t2.next_step_date - t2.step_date
            end
           ) +
        sum(
            case t2.wo_step
              when '5' then t2.next_step_date - t2.step_date
            end
           ), 3 ) step_b
from table_1 t1,
        t2
where t2.order_nr = t1.order_nr
group by t1.order_nr,
           t1.priority,
           t1.create_date,
           t1.act_step,
           t1.step_date,
           t1.employee,
           t1.descriptionBut this does reply evertime a NULL.
Thank You.

Do we need run catbundle.sql file for new databases.

dear all,
i have doubt over execution of catbundle.sql or not?
scenario:
i have insatlled 10gr2 on rhel5 and applied patchset 4 (10.2.0.5) and applied Oracle® Database Patch 10248542 - 10.2.0.5.2 Patch Set Update
after this i have create fresh database.
now,
in Oracle® Database Patch 10248542 - 10.2.0.5.2 Patch Set Update document it has specified in belwo section
3.4 Post Installation Instructions for Databases Created or Upgraded after Installation of PSU 10.2.0.5.2 in the Oracle Home
These instructions are for a database that is created or upgraded after the installation of PSU 10.2.0.5.2.
You must execute the steps in Section 3.3.2, "Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database" for any new database only if it was created by any of the following methods:
Using DBCA (Database Configuration Assistant) to select a sample database (General, Data Warehouse, Transaction Processing)
Using a script that was created by DBCA that creates a database from a sample database
Cloning a database that was created by either of the two preceding methods, and if the steps in Section 3.3.2, "Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database" were not executed after PSU 10.2.0.5.2 was applied
Upgraded databases do not require any post-installation steps.
so do we need to run catbundle here or not.
since i have created fresh database after applying 10.2.0.5 PSU2 why does it required.

Or maybe you found somthing else?

What are the Windows Experience Index numbers for Windows 7 running on a MacBook Pro 13 Retina Display?

I am curious to know what speed those running Windows 7 on a MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display are obtaining. I am interested in purchasing a MacBook Pro 13" Retina (i7) and will be running Windows 7 frequently since some of my business software only runs under Windows. I have heard that the best PC is a Mac. Just wanted to confirm the Windows Experience Index values are for those MacBook Pro users are seeing when running Windows 7. The Windows 7 Experience Index numbers include one for Processor speed, Memory (RAM) speed, Graphics speed, Gaming graphics speed, and Primary Disk speed.

Hi - I connected my superdrive but it does not seem to be working - now all I get is a black screen with the prompt - no bootable device; insert boot disk and press any key.
Any thoughts on this? I put an ISO image on my desktop and also created an image on a USB drive - however it has encryption software on it which did not get overwritten so Im not sure if this is why that won't boot.
Does anyone know if the Superdrive can't be used?
My macbook is 3 weeks old - it is all the latest and greatest stuff...

New to java.. What I need to develop GPS application for Blackberry

I was wondering what everything I needed to get started developing GPS applications for blackberrys.
It interest me a lot.. and I know C# and some VB. I am wanting to learn so getting a book would be good but just wondering what developer tools I needed to develop this kind of application. I currently have Visual Studio 2008 and I have seen a plug in for it.

If .NET, then have fun with Visual Studio and find yourself a .NET forum because this isn't it. If you're going to want to do this with Java, then go to the Sun tutorial site, find the getting started section, and start following those directions. Don't worry about the GPS and blackberry stuff for a good 3-12 months, depending on your current knowledge and abilities.

I'm in the process of getting my first iPhone and was wondering what the need of additional memory is for to a general user?

I'm ready to join the iPhone faternity from years of android use, and I don't use my phone for work. What advantage would having 32G or 64G be to me?

Since the iPhone's storage cannot be increased, buy as much as you can afford. Better to have and not need than need and not have. Plus it will be worth more when you sell it.

What I need to write plug-in for Acrobat Reader ?

Hi There,
I want to write plugin for Acrobat Reader, that's mean I need visual studio or is enough just to have some c compiler ?
One more things. I find out I can use a javascript code do hide toolbar menu and menu item and I founded some inforation that is not possible use that way to disable context menu on right click mouse button. Is that correct ?
Best regards,
grynien

Look at the documentation:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhel p.htm?&accessible=true
Look at 'Developing for Adobe Reader' in 'Introduction to SDK'.

What would be the optimal index creation for this horribly written sql in a third party app that I cannot change?

SQL:
SELECT * FROM ORDERS WHERE ORDERNO = {STR} AND ITEMNO = {##} AND STEP = {##}

That's almost certainly the wrong question. You don't want the index(es) that will optimize that single query. You want the index(es) that will optimize your system as a whole.
The absolute best choice for that query would be a clustered index on ORDERNO, ITEMNO, STEP. But each table can only have one clustered index so you would have to drop any clustered index you currently have and then create the new one. But creating
or dropping a clustered index can be time consuming on a large table.
So in the absence of any other information, I would recommend trying a nonclustered index on ORDERNO, ITEMNO, STEP. That will be faster to do and faster to drop if you decide it's not helping.
