Creating A Multi Column Index

Jan 24, 2012

I have in my database (OLTP-System) a table with about 6000000 records and a zise of about 2GB.

the way to create multi_column indexes on the table?

What are the rule to define the best-position of a column in an index?

index_1(col_1,Col_2,col_3) and not [ (col_1,Col_3,col_2) or (col_2,Col_3,col_1) or (col_2,Col_1,col_3) or (col_3,Col_2,col_1) or (col_3,Col_1,col_2) ] ?

Multi-column Index - Low Cardinality?

Oct 13, 2011

I have a table with, for example, three columns: A, B,C.

I execute on this table only one select: CODESELECT * FROM TABLE WHERE A = :1 AND B=:2

Column A has a lot of distinct values (numbers), but B can have only two values: 'Y' or 'N' (cardinality about 50%/50%). It is worth to create index on two columns: A, B? Does query using index on A column will be much slower than using index on A, B?

Multi Column Index Select Performance

Dec 11, 2012

explain slow performance of multicolumn indexes on oracle 11g R2 observed in the following scenario? A multi-column index (b-tree index) not partitioned, not unique, not reversed with 3 columns.

A series of queries are run using all 3 columns. The performance hit comes when the first order column values changes. So, maybe after 10 select queries the value changes. The 2nd and 3rd order columns are changing throughout the series of select calls, but no performance bottleneck it hit then.

Creating Index On Hashed Column

Sep 23, 2010

I currently have a 5 column index on a table with over 2 billion records (paritioned on created_date (weekly) that is not very effective.I am contemplating replacing this 5 key index and creating a new single column index made up by hashing of all the 5 five columns.

Is this a wise stratgey? How can I implement this so it is most effective and I dont shoot myself in the foot?

Server Administration :: Multi-block Disk Reads For Index Range Scans?

Aug 31, 2010

My understanding of DB_FILE_MULTIBLOCK_READ_COUNT parameter is that it affects only Full Table Scans and Fast Full Index Scans - all other disk retrieval is single block.If so, then maybe I'm reading this trace incorrectly:

select /*+ first_rows */ pk
from test_join_tgt
where pk >= 0
and rownum > 1

call count cpu elapsed disk query current rows
------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
Parse 1 0.01 0.00 0 0 0 0
Execute 1 0.00 0.00 0 0 0 0
Fetch 1 21.48 27.77 22368 22134 0 0
------- ------ -------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
total 3 21.49 27.78 22368 22134 0 0
[code]...

What the heck is going on with the Multi-block reads in the Range Scan?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Multi Column Distinct

Sep 16, 2010

I need to select multiple columns but only have 2 of them which are distinct. For instance if i have

userid lastname firstname city country time
1 jones tom lon gb 2:25
2 wall paul la usa 2:30
1 jones tom lon gb 2:50
3 smith jane ny usa 2:55

what i would want to do is select all the columns but avoid duplicate lastname-firstname combination rows. The problem is if i use a group by i have to include all the columns and because time is different i will get tom jones twice. a way of getting round this so i can select all the columns but only 1 row of tom jones.

Performance Tuning :: Creating Index On Base Tables Of A View?

Dec 9, 2010

I have a view on base tables holding historical data for previous 60 months(one table per month) with union all operators.create index on those base tables will improve performance or creating a primary key with disabled novalidate will improve for retrieving data?

The view has around 8 million data and used as a fact table with 4 dimension tables.A DTS package from MSSql side refreshes OLAP cube by retrieving data from these tables in oracle.

Text :: Creating Single Context Index On One-to-many And Lookup Table?

Apr 16, 2013

I've been successfully setting up text indexes on multiple columns on the same table (using MULTI_COLUMN_DATASTORE preferences), but now I have a situation with a one-to-many data collection table (with a FK to a lookup table), and I need to search columns across both of these tables. Sample code below, more of my chattering after the code block:

CREATE TABLE SUBMISSION
( SUBMISSION_ID             NUMBER(10)          NOT NULL,
  SUBMISSION_NAME           VARCHAR2(100)       NOT NULL
);
CREATE TABLE ADVISOR_TYPE

[code]...

I've looked at DETAIL_DATASTORE and USER_DATASTORE, but the examples in Oracle Docs for DETAIL_DATASTORE leave me a little bit perplexed. It seems like this should be pretty straightforward. I'm trying to avoid creating new columns, and keeping the trigger adjustments to a minimum.

Right Parameter Types Of ODCIIndexInsert In Case Of Creating Index-type WITH ARRAY DML?

Sep 17, 2013

During developing Domain Index for Oracle 11.2.0.1.0 (problem also appears in 12с) i was faced with misunderstanding of parameter types of function ODCIIndexInsert in case of creating indextype WITH ARRAY DML option.According to Oracle documentation [URL}...

In case of WITH ARRAY DML option Oracle will invoke ODCIIndexInsert with following signature

FUNCTION ODCIIndexInsert(
ia ODCIIndexInfo,
ridlist ODCIRidList,
newvallist varray_of_column_type,
env ODCIEnv)
RETURN NUMBER

In my case indexed column has datatype NUMBER so i defined varray_of_column_type as SYS.ODCINumberList STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexInsert(ia in sys.ODCIIndexInfo, ridlist in sys.ODCIRidList, newvallist in sys.ODCINumberList, env in SYS.ODCIEnv) RETURN NUMBER

Indextype was created as

CREATE INDEXTYPE test_index_type
FOR
test_eq(number, number)
USING index_methods
WITH ARRAY DML(number, sys.ODCINumberList)

[code]...

(problem occurs in all cases)
CREATE TABLE test_table (id NUMBER (19,0));
CREATE INDEX test_index ON test_table(id) INDEXTYPE IS test_index_type;

When attempting to insert data in the table insert into test_table values (1);

oracle raise exception

CODEError starting at line 53 in command:
insert into test_table values (1)
Error at Command Line:53 Column:1
Error report:

[code]...

So my question is.Is it normal behavior of oracle (according to documentation)?What is correct signature of ODCIIndexInsert function in case of INDEXTYPE creation with 'WITH ARRAY DML' option and fact that indexed column has NUMBER datatype?

By the way if i define indextype without 'WITH ARRAY DML' option signature is clear, and working. But this approach doesn't satisfies our performance needs.Also if i define index type with option 'WITH ARRAY DML WITHOUT COLUMN DATA' and use signature static function ODCIIndexInsert(ia sys.odciindexinfo, ridlist sys.odciridlist, env sys.ODCIEnv) return number

Everything works too. But this approach doesn't satisfies our business needs.Is it a way to define ODCIIndexInsert parameter types (in case of indexing number column) so that batch inserting works according to documentation ?

FUNCTION ODCIIndexInsert(
ia ODCIIndexInfo,
ridlist ODCIRidList,
newvallist varray_of_column_type,
env ODCIEnv)

I am attaching full sql script to recreate environment and reproduce the problem.Type definition:

CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE index_methods AS OBJECT
(
step number,
STATIC FUNCTION ODCIGetInterfaces(ifclist OUT SYS.ODCIObjectList) RETURN NUMBER,
STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexCreate (ia SYS.ODCIIndexInfo, parms VARCHAR2, env SYS.ODCIEnv) RETURN NUMBER,
STATIC FUNCTION ODCIIndexAlter (ia sys.ODCIIndexInfo, parms IN OUT VARCHAR2, altopt number, env sys.ODCIEnv)

[code]...

PL/SQL :: Bitmap Index On Number Column X Char Column?

Jul 23, 2013

is there some performance/access difference between a bitmap index on a number column and char(1) column? Both columns are not null with a default value.My application has a querie like this:  

select ass.column20,  ass.column30from table_a pucinner join table_b asson ass.column1 = puc.column1where pc.column_char = 'S'and ass.column_char02 = 'P'    

If I create a bitmap index on column "column_char", the access plan is not changed. But changing the column datatype to number(1) and obviously the values, the index is accessed and the cost decreases.This table has 4.000.000 rows. Oracle 11.2.0.2SO

Index On Null Column

Oct 31, 2012

I have a table with column A which contains very few null values. I need to select these rows. I am considering two options:

a) create function based index on NVL(A, 0) and use this in where clause NVL(A, 0)=0 (column doesn't have values 0)
b) create function based index on NVL2(A, 0, NULL) and and use this in where clause NVL2(A, 0, NULL) = 0

First idea was option A. But I realized in option B the index will be much smaller, because most of values of column A isn't NULL so NVL2 will return NULL and index will not have as much leafs as in NVL. It is good idea to use NVL2? Is there any against to use option B instead of A?

PL/SQL :: Index On Date Column

Aug 2, 2012

Is the index suggested on the date column.

Here is the nature of the date column in my case:

1. The table populates with 1000's of records every day with date being always incremental (current date).

2. The search criteria from the weba application (ADF) is based on the date, user gives the range.

3. From ADF I am referring to it as sql.Timestamp when building the query.

Does Index suggested on the date column here and if so what type of index ?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Creating Composite Unique Key With Only 1 Column Allowed To Be Changed

Jul 3, 2013

I have a table say MY_TAB with columns as below

emp_id number,
name varchar2(30),
from_dt date,
remarks varchar2(60)

insert into MY_TAB values (1,'TOM','01-JAN-13', 'some remark');
insert into MY_TAB values (1,'TOM','02-JAN-13', 'some remark');
insert into MY_TAB values (2,'TOM','01-JAN-13', 'some remark');
insert into MY_TAB values (3,'TOM','01-JAN-13', 'some remark');
insert into MY_TAB values (4,'TOM','01-JAN-13', 'some remark');
insert into MY_TAB values (4,'TOM','02-JAN-13', 'some remark');

How do I ensure that when a user tries to insert record with emp_id as 1, then he should only be allowed to enter another from_dt but the value in the name column have to be the same as in the previous row of emp_id 1.

insert into MY_TAB values (1,'TOOM','03-JAN-13') --shld not be allowed.

Application Express :: Creating Link In IR Report Passing Value From Different Column

Feb 19, 2013

Version 4.0.2.00.07

I have an Interactive Report with a column that I need to create a link on but I need to pass the value of another column.

This report shows the Features of a particular Release. There is a select list for the Release that is selected and executes the report. There is a column that indicates whether the Feature has a Commitment attached to it. If there is have that a link to another report that shows all the Commitments for that Feature by passing the FEATURE_ID which is also a column on the Feature report.

Query:
SELECT
....
,CASE WHEN ft.feature_id IN (SELECT cc.feature_id
FROM customer_commitments cc
WHERE ft.feature_id = cc.feature_id
) THEN 'Yes' ELSE 'No'
END "Commitment Exists"
,ft.feature_id
....

FROM ....If "Commitment Exists" has a 'Yes', the 'Yes' is a link that will pass the FEATURE_ID to another report that will show the Commitments for that Feature. If the "Commitment Exists" has a 'No' then no link. I was also wondering if the Commitment report could open in a seperate window and make it modal?
