I am facing a very strange issue with one of our Oracle query. The query is usually completes in a minute or two. Even the execution plan of the query is good and it works perfect most of the times, as expected. The query fetches about 1000-2000 records each day.
But on a given day, the query takes about 30-40 mins to execute completely. Upon checking the load on DB server, there are no other processes running which can impact the run time of this query. Moreover, the record counts fetched are almost same as compared to other days. There is no pattern observed as that this phenomenon occurs. it all happens once in a while.
Configuration is Oracle 10g with RAC environment on LINUX
We have a Oracle 10g database with RAC and Dataguard. When we look at the AWR report, the wait time shown by Oracle for this database is very high.
Service Time : 15.36% Wait Time : 84.64%
This would imply Oracle is waiting for resources 85% of the time and only processing SQL queries during 15% of its non-idle time. However when we check the OS (RHEL), the iowait is only about 10% and the CPU is 80% idle. This means that that processing horsepower is available.
As such, the results between the OS and Oracle database (AWR report) seems contradictory. OS says we have CPU/IO capacity, however Oracle says we don't.
I'm working on a project and I can't figure out the procedure I will need to use. I've got a sysdate field in my "Calls" table which generates a call date + time, however I need to insert a severity level of the call after a certain amount of time, e.g. after 1 hour level turns from level 4 to level 3 and so forth until reaching level 1 after x amount of time. I know I'd need to put in an else if statement within this procedure I just can't work out how to do it with the sysdate field that has also been created.
A bit of info about the table, table name = calls, column 1 = date_time and column 2 is called severity_level
i would like provide a captcha at the time of password recovey to the user. is it possible to place a captcha in forms 6i. if possible how to provide it. i want the piece of code.
I have an application connected to Oracle 11g that sends its own querys to the db based on what the user is clickng on. The applicaiton is connected via one user id and I was wondering, is there a way that I can capture the tiem each query starts, the sql itself, and the amount of time it took to fetch the data?
I have a requirement while A4 printing..When printing each time user have to select file -> page setup -> size(A4)..THEN printing format become A4 Size. How to achieve this one without user have to go on setting.
I have made one application form where users need to enter some data. This data is getting inserted in four tables. As in for now the data is properly getting saved and retrieved only for one user at a time. But problem arrives when more than one users are simultaneously making an entry and saving the data at one time.Same number is getting generated for the users who are saving the data at one time which should not happen.
I have a table with zip codes and their plus four values. For ex: zip code of 10000, which has corresponding plus four values of 001, 002, 003, and 008, 009, 010. The issue is just that--a zip code can have sequential plus four values, and then it will skip several potential plus four values, and then start again. I would like to assign a low plus 4 value and high plus four value to a zip code, keeping in mind that the plus four values are not always sequential. So, it would be similar to this:
zip plus4 low plus4 high 10000 001 003 10000 008 010
My requirement is while sending a data file from oracle to mainframe, first 3 bytes for the header row should contain low values and trailer should contain high value.
How to pass oracle values to mainframe high and low values ?
I have a priority column(possible values are 1 or 0) in a table where
i need to get 70% of high(1) and 30% of low (0) and max i can fetch for select is 50 records.
Eg1: Total if i have 60 in which 20 high and 40 low then 70% of 20 = 14 and remaining should be taken from Low i.e. 36 from low. so total will be 50 transactions.
Eg2: Total if i have 60 in which 40 high and 20 low then 70% of 40 28 + remaining should be taken from Low i.e. 22 from Low.
Eg 3: If i don't have any high then total should be picked from low vise versa.
I have below query but it is having problem when there is no low priority.
SELECT ID,PRI FROM temp tbl WHERE pri = '1' AND ROWNUM < ((70/100)*50)+1 UNION ALL SELECT * FROM temp WHERE pri = '0' AND ROWNUM < 50-(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM temp WHERE pri = '1' AND ROWNUM < ((70/100)*50)+1)
I have setup of two node (prod-db1, prod-db2) clustered database 11gR2 on windows 2008 R2 server. Everything is working fine at this setup.
My question is: Is there a way to make the Enterprise manager Database control run and be available at both the nodes independently. What I see that even at node 2 (which is prod-db2) the EM-DBControl is (https://prod-db1:1158/em) - which means the agent is running at node 1 (prod-db1) only.
My question is that how to make the EM-DBControl also run separately at prod-db2. My idea is to make the high availability of EM-DBControl (in case Prod-db1 machine is down).
I am in the very early planning stages of a project the goal of which is to identify separate organizations which may in fact be the same organization.
Our first implementation of this task was a process designed to look for a few thousand organizations in a pool of a few hundred thousand organizations. To accomplish this we made heavy use of Oracle's Text index as well as a custom index type we created which utilized n-grams. This approach worked quite well for on-demand editing of the organizations, in which a user might log in and say in addition to what we already know about organization A we also know x, y and z does that change anything and worked acceptably well for the bulk processing we did on our "known" information once a week running for a couple of hours on the weekend.
We have now been tasked with reworking this initial implementation only now we want to look at a set consisting of several million organizations for potential matches which exist within the set. As in our initial implementation we will be breaking what we know about organizations into groupings so we aren't comparing a phone number to an email address and normalizing the data as much as we can so we ignore things like case and punctuation. Even after all this we are still talking about looking for similar values in a group which might be in the tens of millions (some types of data will have more than one value per organization).
My initial thought on the problem is to use n-grams though not in the way we did in the past. The basic idea here is that we break the search values up into all the substrings it is made of and look for other values which have a high number of those substrings in common.
SQL & PL/SQL was the best place for the question, but I could not think of a better one.
I am facing one performance issue, in which the query cost is very low compare to cpu cost and as a result the cpu always show the high graph.I am also attaching the gv$sql and gv$sql_plan data of this query.
This is the query:
SELECT PTLS.ITEMTYPE , PTLS.ITEMID , PTLS.STAGEID, TS.USERID, SUM(PREVIOUSHOURS) AS PREVIOUSHOURS, MIN(STARTDATE) AS STARTDATE, MAX(STARTDATE) AS ENDDATE FROM PROJECTTIMELOGSSTAGE PTLS, PROJECTTIMESHEETITEM PTSI, TIMESHEET TS WHERE PTLS.PROJECTID = :B2 AND TS.TIMESHEETID = PTSI.TIMESHEETID AND TS.USERID = :B1 AND PTSI.TIMESHEETID = PTLS.TIMESHEETID AND PTSI.ITEMTYPE = PTLS.ITEMTYPE AND PTSI.ITEMID = PTLS.ITEMID AND (PTSI.ISPWFITEM = 'N' OR PTSI.ISPWFITEM IS NULL) AND PTLS.ITEMTYPE NOT IN ('OtherTsk','NewTsk','Loc','Glb') AND (PTLS.ITEMTYPE, PTLS.ITEMID ) IN (SELECT ITEMTYPE, ITEMID FROM PROJECTTIMELOGSSTAGE PTLS1 WHERE PTLS1.PROJECTID = :B2 AND PTLS1.TIMESHEETID = :B3 ) GROUP BY PTLS.ITEMTYPE, PTLS.ITEMID, PTLS.STAGEID, TS.USERID
I am trying to compare the ranges of low pair and high pair,if they are within the range then source_conn_id should remain same,else it should be updated to null,which i had written it in else block.How can I implement the IF block and what to write in that block so that source_conn_id can remain the same.
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE fp_complements_src(p_id varchar2,ftr_con_id varchar2) 2 AS 3 BEGIN 4 FOR i IN(SELECT SOURCE_CONN_ID,LOW_PAIR,HIGH_PAIR FROM COMP_TEMP1 WHERE SOURCE_CONN_ID=ftr_con_id)
We had a massive jump in cluster waits specifically; gc buffer busy acquire during an RMAN backup. We identified the cause of the waits to a few hot blocks with a table that may well need re-building in terms of ITLs and PCTFREE (Although I thorght ASSM would manage PCTFREE and PCTUSED..)
What happens during an RMAN backup that may cause huge cluster waits on hot tables? Is there some crazy redo issue going on or maybe flashback?
Either way the spike is there and we can pinpoint the activity on the database but just dont understand why RMAN would cause the issue.We have just found that the LARGE_POOL has not been set, in fact there is no SGA_TARGET either! Could this have an effect on RMAN and cluster waits?
We have a large table of equally sized data blobs in our Oracle system and we'd like to select the whole table once into the memory. The corresponding tablespace is stored in SSD fast disks and is managed by ASM. However the achievable select speed (reading data into memory) of Oracle is not satisfactory. When we store the data in SSD disk using custom methods (e.g. in SQLite DB files) and load then into memory by multithreading (8 thread) techniques, the speed is more than 15 times that of Oracle.
Is there any way to optimize the oracle and ASM for increased full table select in our case. We tried FULL TABLE SCAN and PARALLEL hints and DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT too, but with no success.
FYI:Our data blob is about 4.2kB and each DB_BLOCK_SIZE is 8kB. The ASM segment is configured for AUTO-ALLOCATE. The table is partitioned by HASH. Our oracle system is not RAC.
when I was analyzing high CPU utilization issue, I saw that the most of the top PID's were INACTIVE in database. But it was utilizing more than 4% CPU. how it is utilizing CPU without doing any work in database?
Is there any way to tune the following query using lot of CPU:-select description,time_stamp,user_id from bhi_tracking where description like 'Multilateral:%'The explain plan for this is query is:-
Bhi_tracking is used for reporting purpose and contain millions of records.Generally we keep one year data in this table and delete the remaining.Can I drop the table after taking export and then import it back or can i truncatethe table and then insert the rows into it to enhancethe performance.
I am using Oracle 11g On windows 2003 Server, and in the task manager, tnslsnr.exe comsuming approx 1 GB of RAM. After restarting the listener it came to some mb(20-30). but Again after few days it raies and consume lots of memory..
