How To Find Out The List Of Patches Applied Without Using Inventory
Jul 23, 2012I have been asked this question once.
How will you find out the list of patches applied to Oracle Database Home without using commands like opatch lsinventory -detal etc...
I think registry$history is a view from where we can find out the list of patches applied.
But I think it will not include all the bug fixes,stand alone or one-off patches.It will mainly list out the CPU patches applied(correct me if I am wrong).
Critical Application Batch Performance
Sep 21, 2012We have a critical application batch that runs daily and had a 7.5 hr window after which the application needs to come online. During the peak batch times the truncates are running very slow leading to slow down of the batch jobs quite considerably due to which the batch is going beyond the window.
Technical details:
Database version: 11.2.0.2
OS: HP-UX 11.31
The wait events that show up when the truncates are running are local write wait
enq: RO fast object reuse
enq: CR block range reuse ckpt
db file parallel write
The ASH reports show that the top sessions are those executing DMLs(insert, merge, update) and DDLs(Create/alter index & truncate). In addition to this it also shows that the blocking sessions are background wait events: CKPT and DBWR. Changes to DB configuration done with respect to addressing these issues are:
1) We have increased the DBWR processes to 2
2) Reduced the buffer cache size to 20G(from the original 30G)
3) Flushing the buffer cache before the batch begins in order to reduce the load on DBWR during the batch peak time
4) Set the parameter filessytem_io to SETALL(from none)
5) Tuned the EVA(SAN storage) to improve its performance - by distributing the loads evenly between the controllers, reducing the IO transfer block size, etc
6) Suggested using the reuse storage clause to improve truncate performance.
All of these have worked bring a semblance of control but the fact remains that the batch is generating more jobs(hence increasing data volume) over time due to it being the peak season. This causes an inevitable increase in the number of sessions all running DMLs and DDLs which are IO intensive operations.
Suggestions pending from our end:
1) Increase DBWR beyond 2. For this we need a H/W upgrade since we have maxed out the maximum number of DBWR that can be configured
2) Implementing asynchronous IO for DBWR which on HP-UX requires moving to raw disks. Hence have suggested using ASM.
3) Tuning the application to either reduce the IO generated or redistribute the jobs such that those with maximum loads don't run together
instead of truncating tables, can we rename the tables and delete them later . will this improve performance ?

Windows :: Which User Is MANDATORY To Use When Installing Oracle Patches
Nov 22, 2010We have almost 400 production two-node RAC clusters in the environment I manage - all these sites have databases where the database name is exactly the same, so using Grid Control right now isn't in the cards (and yes - I am working on assigning them all a unique name ). We want to use IBM's BIGFIX to deploy patch 32 on top of 10.2.0.3 for Windows Itanium. BigFix runs as a user different from that used to install the Oracle software originally. There is nothing in the patch notes to suggest that you must use a certain Windows user to install the patch - so the question is, does it matter what Windows User I use as long as they are an 'Administrator' equivalent?
how do you perform mass updates/patches in your Windows server environments? I am looking for examples outside of Grid Control - which I know would work if only my predecessor didn't name these databases the same .
While Applying Patches In Oracle Home Space Not Sufficient
Mar 18, 2011Im applying patch which is an upgrade to 10.2.0.5 from 10.2.0.3. Its a 2 node RAC. While applying patches the installer mentioned space are sufficient, but while applying patches it throws message that in oracle home space not sufficient. Im able to apply patches in cluster home successfully. How much space required in oracle home for this patch? There is no information mentioned the document as well.

May 29, 2013My client asked me to "apply the newest patch" on his RAC 10.2.0.5 environment on Windows.
I've downloaded 10.2.0.5 Patch 20 (the newest version).
My question is: Should i apply it using OPatch to both: ORACLE_HOME and CRS_HOME? or only in ORACLE_HOME? What with 10.2.0.5.2 CRS Patch? Should i apply earlier CPU patches?
Security :: Oracle Critical Patch Updates?
Jun 7, 2013Is this the correct forum to ask questions about Oracle CPU's?
I ran the CPU-JUL-2012 on a workstation for version 11.1.0.7, got Return Code 0 and "OPatch Succeeded".
Yet a Retina scan ran after shows no change....?
I've tried reading the availability document, but I have no experience at Oracle patching.

Reports & Discoverer :: ORA-0999 - Unimplemented Error Patches Enquiry
Aug 25, 2010Recently, my client side report runtime experience the following bug:
--> ORA-0999:UnImplemented Error
When user attempts to convert the generated report into PDF format.
I had found out from the net that by applying the following:
Patch 18 for Windows Client/Server Forms 6i.
The Ora-0999 bug will be resolved. True enough the bug has been resolved.
However, I had chanced a post recently and this raised my concern on whether I had done the patching correctly.
From the post it stated that,
Quote:Forms 6i ( stand alone ) is currently desupported/extended support. So patch 17 is the last one.
2. Forms 6i is still supported for Ebusiness Suite. Hence patche 18 is the latest patch for form 6i with fixes specific to ebusiness suite. There might be an another patch for forms6i later but specific to ebusiness suite. This is because Forms 6i is supported for EB.
If you are not using Forms along with EB then I dont think the new patches are useful. So remaining at patch 17 is recommended.

FYI, I had only selected the custom installation with only the Report Runtime to be patch over the previous version.

Data Guard :: Apply Patches On Oracle Database With Logical Standby Database?
Apr 22, 2011I got a primary database with a logical standby database running Oracle 11g. I got two client applications, one is the production site pointing to the primary one, another one is just a backup site pointing to the logical one.Things will only be written into the primary database every mid night and client applications can only query the database but not add, update nor delete.And now, I want to apply the latest patch on both of my databases. I am also the DNS administrator, I can make the name server pointing to the backup site instead of the production one.I want to firstly apply the patch on the logical one, and then the physical one.
I found some reference which explains how to apply patches by adopting "Rolling Upgrade Method". however, I want to avoid doing any "switch over" mentioned in the reference because I can make use of name server. Can I just apply patches as the following way?
1)Stop SQL apply
2)Apply patches on logical standby database
3)let the name server point to the backup site
4)Apply patches on the primary database
5)Start SQL apply
6)Let the name server point back to the production site
Get Latest Records?
Jun 9, 2011I have a table that contains history for vehicle positions. In order to find the latest positions quickly, I've included a LATEST column that is 1 if the record is the latest position and 0 otherwise. The table is maintained via a stored procedure. The procedure first sets the latest record for the vehicle to history...
UPDATE vehicle_positions SET latest = 0 WHERE vehicle_id = <vehicle ID> AND latest = 1
It then inserts the new latest record...
INSERT INTO vehicle_positions (vehicle_id, longitude, latitude, insert_time, latest) VALUES (<vehicle_id>, <x pos>, <y pos>, SYSDATE, 1)
Is it possible for me to end up with 2 latest records?Consider this scenario...
Session #1: UPDATE vehicle_positions SET latest = 0 WHERE vehicle_id = 123 AND latest = 1
Session #2: UPDATE vehicle_positions SET latest = 0 WHERE vehicle_id = 123 AND latest = 1
Session #1: INSERT INTO vehicle_positions (vehicle_id, longitude, latitude, insert_time, latest) VALUES (123, 32.8533, -117.1180, SYSDATE, 1)
Session #2: INSERT INTO vehicle_positions (vehicle_id, longitude, latitude, insert_time, latest) VALUES (123, 32.8534, -117.1178, SYSDATE, 1)
I'd end up with 2 latest records. How can I protect against this? I considered using SELECT FOR UPDATE, but seems like there are too many negatives going that route

SQL & PL/SQL :: Getting Latest Record From Different Tables?
Feb 4, 2011I tried to post this issue earlier but it was not very clear. Well. Let me try to put in more better way.I have four tables storing order & customer information.
For given order number and cust _id I need to display latest record. here are my four tables.
SQL> select * from so;
ORD_NO ORD_DATE CUST_ID
---------- --------- ----------
1 01-JAN-10 10
2 02-JAN-09 20
3 03-FEB-11 30
SQL> select * from sol;
FK_ORD_NO FK_CUST_ID CUST_NAME LOCATION
---------- ---------- ------------------------- ----------
1 10 abc MA
2 20 xyz CA
3 30 ijk LA
[code]...
There will be a stored procedure that will take order_no and cust_id as input paremeters and return out ref cursor.
create procedure P1( in_ord_no in number,
in_cust_id in varchar2,
out_cur out sys_refcursor);
Here is the expected output.
Case 1 - in_ord_no =4 , in_cust_id = 10
Expected output - Empty cursor. Because bothe tables does not have matching record.
Case 2- in_ord_no = 3 in_cust_id = 30

SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Find Last Or Latest Inserted Row
Apr 22, 2013i have a table in that every month i insert rows and my table doesn't have primary key,index and date filed.for example:-table is like this
name salary Id
john5000101
brat4500102
smith4600103
john5500101
brat4600102
smith4800103

when it comes to retrieve i have to pick the latest(last) insert row of particular Name.Is there any auto generated row_numbers in Oracle.
SQL & PL/SQL :: Selecting Latest Date
Aug 23, 2012have a bit of a SQL trouble. I have a simple table (pcuk_BG_alloc_TAB) which stores Parts, Quantities and Applied dates
PART_NO QUANTITY APPLIED
PartA 100 10/8/2012
PartA 200 12/8/2012
PartB 30 12/8/2012
PartC 50 10/8/2012
PartC 75 15/8/2012
PartC 80 21/8/2012
I am only interested the latest applied date for each part and am looking for this to be returned in a select statement (as below)
PART_NO QUANTITY APPLIED
PartA 200 12/8/2012
PartB 30 12/8/2012
PartC 80 21/8/2012
I have tried using the max function (select part_no, quantity, max(applied) from pcuk_BG_alloc_TAB group by part_no, quantity) but seems as the records have different quantities it treats them separately.

Installation :: Latest Patchset For 11.2.0.3.0 Windows 64 Bit
Apr 11, 2013Platform: windows 64 bit
Oracle database 11.2.0.3
I successfully upgraded my database from oracle 11.2.0.1.0 to 11.2.0.3.0 and the upgrade worked fine. I installed the 11.2.0.3.0 in a new oracle home.
Now my task is to install the latest patch set release on the new oracle home(Make database upto date with latest fixes indeed). I am confused with the available documentations in my oracle support.
As CPU is now considered as a subset of PSU patch, i believe i have to apply the latest PSU only.Is this correct? Is there a step by step guide for applying latest patch?I saw there are 5 PSUs released (latest 11.2.0.3.5), do i need to apply each of them or just this final one?
Give me the latest available patchset/patch(Still not clear) install guide and latest available patch download links.

Developer Tools :: Can Use Latest Features In Oracle 12c
Oct 2, 2013I read previous post "Can I use the latest features in Oracle Developer Tools 11g and still use ODP.NET version 10.x or 9.x in my application?".In this the solution was: "Solution: Yes, you can use the newest 11g version of Oracle Developer Tools while developing code that relies on ODP.NET version 10g or 9i. In almost all cases it will work fine. The only exception is with the automatic .NET code generation feature. Here is what you need to do:
a) Install both ODT 11g *and* ODP.NET 10g or 9i. They must be placed in different Oracle Homes!
b) You will now be able to use the 11g Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio and all of the newest features. To ensure the correct version of ODP.NET is used by your application continue to the next steps:
c) Make sure that in the "References" section in your solution, the Oracle.DataAccess.dll that is referenced is coming from the Oracle 10 or Oracle 9 Oracle home.
d) Finally, you must "ungac" (gacutil /u) the ODP.NET 11g policy DLL's or else your application will silently begin using the 11g version of ODP.NET even though the reference points to the correct DLL. There are several Oracle policy DLLs with varying names, for example: "Policy.2.102.Oracle.DataAccess.dll". Ungac them all."
Are the steps the same if i have Oracle Developer Tools 12c and still use ODP.NET version 11g R2 in my application?
