Detecting Full Domain Name / Username For Connected OS User
Oct 20, 2010
If I'm looking on v$session - values in osuser column for some machines displayed with DOMAINNAME, and for other - without. Even same user (MYDOMAIN\ADMINISTRATOR) from 2 different machines displayed in 2 different ways on the same db:
MYDOMAIN\Administrator from machine A, and administrator from machine B.
Both machines are belongs to same windows domain. DB (oracle 10g) have no "DOMAIN" defined.
What make the difference? And can I somehow to affect this behaviour? I mean, can I define that all users will be displayed as DOMAINNAME\USERNAME or MACHINENAME\USERNAME(in case of no domain exists)?

I know how to use database links in various forms, but I've been trying to think through how the authentication works for a connected user link in 11g. If I create the link like this,
create public database link using 'orcl';
then any user can use the link, provided they have an identical username/password in the two databases. With pre-11g passwords, it was understandable: the password was salted with the username, so the hash of the password would be the same in both databases, and I assumed that the logon through the link used some sort of IDENTIFIED BY VALUES mechanism. But in 11g, the salt will different in the two databases. So the hash will be different. And of course Oracle never stores the actual password. So I don't see how the authentication works.

i have been trying to create a user with full access on default Tablespace so that i can access all the objects without any restrictions for the new user.
I am on 11.2.0.3 Enterprise Edition. We are using the new feature "Composite Domain Index" for a Domain index on a very large table (>250.000.000 rows). It really works with mixed queries. We added two number columns using FILTER BY.We have lots of DML on this table. Therefore, we are executing synchronize and optimize once the week. The synch behaves pretty normal. But "optimize_index" takes a very very long time to complete. I have switsched on 'logging' for the optimize process. The $I table takes some time but is finished normally. But the optimization of the $S table (that is the table created for the CDI feature) is running over 12 hours now - and far from being finished. From the logfile, I can see that it optimizes 1000 rows every 20 minutes. Here is the output of the logfile:
Oracle Text, 11.2.0.3.0 14:33:05 06/26/12 begin logging 14:33:05 06/26/12 event 14:33:05 06/26/12 process $N for optimize: SEQDEV.GEN_GES_DESCRIPTION_CTX_I 14:33:16 06/26/12 14:33:16 06/26/12 [code]....
I haven't found a recommendation from Oracle not to use "optimize_index" for Domain Indexes with CDI. But in my case, it would be much faster just to drop and recreate the Domain Index in question.
I am not sure if the problem is related to hidden characters but its my best guess so far. I am trying to enhance a part of the ERD by creating a lookup for a column one of the table that uses text (finite set of values).
CREATE TABLE N_AGREEMENT_STATUS ( STATUS_ID NUMBER(2) PRIMARY KEY, STATUS_NAME VARCHAR2(10 BYTE) ); INSERT ALL INTO N_AGREEMENT_STATUS VALUES (1, 'INACTIVE') INTO N_AGREEMENT_STATUS VALUES (2, 'ACTIVE') INTO N_AGREEMENT_STATUS VALUES (3, 'CLOSED') INTO N_AGREEMENT_STATUS VALUES (4, 'CANCELLED') SELECT * FROM DUAL;
when I try to update the source table no update takes place (0 records updated) if I used the following statement:
ALTER TABLE N_AGREEMENT ADD STATUS_ID NUMBER(2); UPDATE N_AGREEMENT SET STATUS_ID = ( SELECT STATUS_ID FROM N_AGREEMENT_STATUS WHERE N_AGREEMENT.STATUS = STATUS_NAME );
but it works fine only if I used:
UPDATE N_AGREEMENT SET STATUS_ID = ( SELECT STATUS_ID FROM N_AGREEMENT_STATUS WHERE N_AGREEMENT.STATUS LIKE STATUS_NAME || '%' );
The strange thing is that when I use:
SELECT N_AGREEMENT.STATUS, N_AGREEMENT.STATUS_ID FROM N_AGREEMENT WHERE N_AGREEMENT.STATUS = 'ACTIVE';
it returns correct results and all status = 'ACTIVE' appear correctly!
I have a form that i need to be able to detect when a field is has been updated. I will then do the appropriate update to the table.
I can't use the standard oracle forms data block for handling updates because my data selection is controlled by me via the when-new-block-instance.
The problem is when i select a value from an LOV and place the new data in the field. I don't know how to detect if the field is updated or not. I am currently using a loop to cycle through all the records, I have an if/else in the key_commit trigger that basically determines if there is an update or insert to be done to the table. The problem is that it seems if i select a value for one record that record goes through the INSERT procedure, (which is correct), but all the other records(not touched/changed) are going through the UPDATE procedure.
Is there a way in forms to check the status of a field? I know of system.form_status but that does not work for me.
which of the following views on the physical standby will us correct information on synchronization with Primary database?
For example, when I checked v$archived_gap it did not return any rows but the max(applied_seq#) on v$archive_dest_status was lagging far behind from the max(sequence#) on Primary database
select max(applied_seq#) from v$archive_dest_status where dest_id=2; select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log where applied='YES'; select * from v$archive_gap;
I have created a local partitioned index with the parameter NOPOPULATE create index lb_text_idx on ac_maint (DISC_CMPLNT_TX) indextype is ctxsys.context local parameters ('lexer skipJoinLexer datastore logbookTextDS NOPOPULATE');
When an new value of project_id is inserted into table1 , I create a partition using the following command where prjId is the new value of the project_id ALTER TABLE EVENT split PARTITION pmax AT ('||prjId||') INTO ( PARTITION p_' || prjId || ', PARTITION pmax)
Now I run a huge data load into the EVENT table for a project Id say 1 and insert millions of records.I want to rebuild the lb_text_idx for this partition alone so that data is available for searching by the application. I did a rebuild using the command " alter index lb_text_idx rebuild partition p_1".
However when I run the below sql, I get a count of 0. I know that the text MAINT is definitely present in the table.
SELECT COUNT(1) FROM EVENT WHERE PROJECT_ID = 1 and contains (DISC_CMPLNT_TX, 'MAINT' ) > 0
When I run the below sql select parameters,status from user_ind_partitions where partition_name = 'P_1' , I get parameters as null and status as usable.Am I getting 0 records because the parameters are set to null? How do I rebuild with the same parameters for the specific partition alone.
Im in the midst of installing a patch on my UIM. However, in the planning phase, the Oracle guide recommends that I backup my database schema and database domain for UIM in case the patching fails and might affect the whole UIM app. May I know how to do this?
I create an instance with oracle scripts,.. postDBCreation.sql :
-SERVICE_NAME cag1.crick.cagis.gov should be cag1.mycrof.cagis.gov .... ultraSearchCfg.sql SERVICE_NAME=cag1.crick.cagis.gov should be ca1.mycrof.cagis.gov .. Impact: All DBlinks show as LINKNAME.CRICK.CAGIS.GOV and this instance is labeled CAG1.CRICK.CAGIS.GOV in the Grid Control Console.
I have a field for email address. I would like to create a field to capture just the domain (after the @ and before the .com) so I can process a count of records by domain.
I am using Oracle 10g on Fedora Linux and trying to learn a bit of pl/sql. Here is the piece of code that I today tried to run in the SQL Plus window but it back with an error message saying SP2-0640 Not connected.
set serveroutput on declare x number; begin x :=7777; dbms_output.put_line('x= '); dbms_output.put_line(x); end;
When Oracle was installed, there was an error in the server's domain name (missing a "."). Is there an easy way to fix this domain name in the Oracle installation after the fact? I know about tnsnames.ora, pfile, system parameters, and I'm pretty sure I can do emagent -config. My concern is that the "Installed Products" would not like the fact that the domain name is now "abc.proj.org" when installation was done on "abcproj.org". The /etc/hosts file had "abcproj.org", and we want to fix it to "abc.proj.org".
I need to reinstall Oracle -- is there a better way?
I'm using Dev10g Rel.2....If I call a report with paramform=no and pass it a value from forms then report runs well. but if I call report thru parameter form and pass value from parameter form the report doesn't run with error:
The webpage cannot be displayed.
Interesting fact is that If I call the report from a client on same domain as that of Application Server then it runs even thru paramform. I've also entered the application server I.P and name on other domain's client but no way.
I am using oracle 11g in window server 2008 R2 enterprise under WORKGROUP. And it was working fine. But after changing it from WORKGROUP to DOMAIN not able to connect it.
Its comes as
ORA-12505:TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect description.
We have 11.2.0.3 RAC on Oracle Virtual Box,OEL 5.8. Storage is ASM on EMC SAN.Even when the database is not connected to application and thus open but idle and none is working on it, and all other virtual machines are powered off, we are still getting a continuous i/o in SAN.Since I am new to RAC setup I need to know the few things...
1.Is it normal behaviour? 2.If yes, what is the reason of this i/o? Is it due to continuous ping on voting disk?..write in OCR? automatic backup of OCR?

Through RMAN i have to connect to two databases having same name but the databases are at two different nodes.Can RMAN recognise the 2 databases.If yes how? I want to know the command.
I have created domain indexes on text columns of a materialised view to use "contains" clause when searching for data. The select query with "contains" clause does not return any records, however I was able to retrive data using via regular query using a like search.
-> will exec ctx_ddl.sync_index('index_name')'resolve my problem? -> since the view is a materialized view, how can i make sure that the latest data added are also picked up?
I have installed Weblogic Server 10.3.6 in my PC .While in installation i have chosen 'Custom' option instead of 'Typical' and Unchecked software Components 'Database Evaluation' and 'Oracle Coherence' and Installed 'Node Manager Service' then continued with Weblogic server installation .Weblogic Server installed Succesfully.
(In weblogic server home folder nodemanager.domains file also not created after weblogic server installation)
Now i started installation of Forms and Reports 11g R2 . While Configuring Instance 'Domain Creation is Failed'.
Is there any way to tell what processes/sessions were connected to a DB after I get an ORA 20error. As you can see from the query results below, I did hit the max value of processes but I would like to know when it happen and who was connected.
I realize I can up the value, but before I do that I want to see what caused this to happen.
SQL> select * from v$resource_limit where resource_name in ('sessions', 'processes'); RESOURCE_NAME CURRENT_UTILIZATION MAX_UTILIZATION INITIAL_AL LIMIT_VALU ---------- processes 221 1000 1000 1000 sessions 223 1020 1105 1105
