For one of my row its returning as below lpad('abcdef', 4 , 'Z') returning abcd
but instead of this if no of characters is greater than 4 i want the actual data without lpad should be returned.
When we are trying to create number data type column of a table with precision greater than actual value,it's accepting the definition of the table . But we are unable to insert any values into the table.how internally it stores the value
SQL> drop table precision_test;
Table dropped
SQL> create table precision_test(name number(2,5));
Table created
SQL> insert into precision_test values (1);
insert into precision_test values (1)

Is there any way to find out the division between the time taken for query parsing, creating execution plan and actual data retrieval seperately? If I enable 'set timing on' I see the elapsed time which is the total time taken for all these 3. Some of my queries are taking long time when I run it first time and so want to know what is it taking long? is it the parsing or creating the execution plan, if so what can I optimize.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe are using Oracle 10g and have 10 tablespaces defined for our Database which have 108 tables. Size of 108 tables is around 251 MB as seen during importing the dump. While creating these 10 tablespaces I used below parameters for allocation of space
SIZE 1M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 1M MAXSIZE 1M;
which set the initial space for 10 tablespaces to around 1032Kb each. Now my Question is after importing the dump , how the disk space for 10 tablespaces increases to 398 MB in total ?
Is there any relation of Tablespace disk space and Actual Data present in the tables ?
I'm attempting to use dynamic SQL to execute a function that returns a user-defined collection. The problem is that I don't know how to use dynamic SQL to handle user-defined types...or if this is even possible?
The code I have is as follows:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE qi_test IS
TYPE typ_qi_data IS RECORD(
iQIFlag NUMBER(1),
iIPFlag NUMBER(1),
iRiskIndicator NUMBER(1),
iDenominator NUMBER(8),
iNumerator NUMBER(8)
[code]........
I want to be able to execute the above function using dynamic SQL. Initially tried:
DECLARE
f2_data qi_test.typ_qi_data_tab;
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'begin :1 := qi_test.get_f2_data; end;'
USING OUT f2_data;
[code]......
...but this just produces "PLS-00457: expressions have to be of SQL types". So it looks like I can't do it this way if the returned data type is user defined. I know it would be easier in this instance to just use something like:
f2_data := qi_test.get_f2_data;
...rather than EXECUTE IMMEDIATE, but it's the principle that I need to get right as it forms part of a much bigger piece of work.

I have a insert statement where i need to insert data to a column where i need to insert value more than 4000 char into column.
Different approaches and condition:
1. CLOB should not be used
2. Need full value to be stored
Approach:
1.I created few more dummy columns to insert the data , was inserting 4000 char and if exceeded i was inserting to next column, but this will be tedious if we have 35000 char
2.Insert in the same column as different rows

sometimes it assumes comma after 1540,Lö,tstelle and then no commas till Lö, tstelle Zinnspritzer Zinnschlußsolder short,

I have the following bit of code that reads data from the an Oracle table (Note: This is running on Jdk 1.4.2)
ResultSet message = messageStatement.executeQuery(getMsgSql);
String messageData = message.getString("MESSAGE_DATA");
The data in the MESSAGE_DATA column contains text but also control characters that separate data elements in the message (i.e (char)31, (char)29) and (char)28) . What i am finding is that for some reason message.getString() is sometimes truncating the message. I can read the majority of messages but some of them are truncated. Am i supposed to be reading the data using a different method? If so how?
I have tried to use sqlplus to look at the data in the database and it is all there it is just truncated by the message.getString() method. I saw this when i tried to output the result i.e. System.out.println(message.getString()).
I ran an sql query using the length() function in Oracle and length("MESSAGE_DATA") returns 2032 whereas in java message.getString(1).length() returns 2000.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am creating a query where I am trying to take phone call lengths and put them into buckets of length ranges 0:00 - 0:59, 1:00 - 1:59 etc. Even if there are no calls in the call table I need to return the range with a zero (hence the left join and nvl). When I do this the left join acts like an equal join, I suspect there is some reason left joins only work if there is an equal condition in the join (instead of >= and < that I use, or similarly I could use BETWEEN). I also have a question about performance (below).
The create table script for the lookup is like this:
CREATE TABLE DURATION_RANGES
(
RANGE_TEXT varchar2(20),
RANGE_LBOUND decimal(22),
RANGE_UBOUND decimal(22)
)
Sample inserts are:
INSERT INTO DURATION_RANGES (RANGE_TEXT,RANGE_LBOUND,RANGE_UBOUND) VALUES ('00:00 - 00:59',0,59);
INSERT INTO DURATION_RANGES (RANGE_TEXT,RANGE_LBOUND,RANGE_UBOUND) VALUES ('01:00 - 01:59',60,119);
etc.
The query is:
select
r.range_text as duration_range,
nvl(count(*),0) as calls,
nvl(SUM(call_duration),0) as total_duration
from
[code]...
As I say, it is not returning all ranges in the duration_ranges table, so acting like an inner join. I realize one solution would be to populate duration ranges with every value possible (instead of ranges) so join is an equal join, but that would make the duration_range table larger.
My questions:
1. Is it possible to get the left join to work with the duration range values as they currently are?
2. Even if 1 is possible, would it be better performance to have exact values (but a larger lookup table) and do an equals join instead of >=, < or BETWEEN? Performance now is not bad.
What I mean is (with only one time value and not lbound and ubound:
INSERT INTO DURATION_RANGES (RANGE_TEXT,RANGE_LBOUND,RANGE_UBOUND) VALUES ('00:00 - 00:59',0);
INSERT INTO DURATION_RANGES (RANGE_TEXT,RANGE_LBOUND,RANGE_UBOUND) VALUES ('00:00 - 00:59',1);
INSERT INTO DURATION_RANGES (RANGE_TEXT,RANGE_LBOUND,RANGE_UBOUND) VALUES ('00:00 - 00:59',2);

I look after a team of DBAs and I have a request to free up space on our very expensive storage system. However the answers on how to do this differ and i'd like to ask for external input...So not being a techincal person I see the world as quite black and white. Meaning that you delete data and you free space but after doing much reading I understand this is not the case, as you essentially create data fragmentation within the datafile resulting in the db having lots more space to write into but not actually freeing space, even if you shrink the file it doesnt free space or do a reorg?
We have as an example a DB with 2 billion rows of data in 1 table, no partioning just one large table. We have worked out that we can probably delete 1 billion rows or even better only keep a rolling 3 month window of data. What would be the suggestion on deleting this data and reclaiming the disk space to actually see additional disk space made available at the os level.
How about deleting the data and reclaiming the space. Through reading it looks like it might be something like, delete, creating new table space partitions from this data. This in theory would create new a tablespace in newly created data files which would result in the data being reorganised and taking up less physical space and when completed you point to the newly created partitions and drop the old tables.
how they have done this as it must be a common problem that people have created some different solutions. What commands, procedures have been used?

I'm using ASM on LUNs from an EMC SAN, fronted by PowerPath. Right now I have only one fiber path to the SAN, so /dev/emcpowera3 maps directly to /dev/sda3, for example. Oracle had a typo in what they told me to do in /etc/sysconfig/oracleasm*, so the scan picks up both devices.
#/etc/init.d/oracleasm querydisk -p ASMVOL_01
Disk "ASMVOL_01" is a valid ASM disk
/dev/emcpowera3: LABEL="ASMVOL_01" TYPE="oracleasm"
/dev/sda3: LABEL="ASMVOL_01" TYPE="oracleasm"
But I don't think it can be using both. How do I see which one it's actually using?
*They said:
ORACLEASM_SCANORDER="emcpower*"
ORACLEASM_SCANEXCLUDE="sd"
But I think that should be "sd*".
Where are the details of the Actual Responder Details stored in the case of the below scenario
If a notification for one user was closed by another user through access to the first user's worklist, the name of the second user, who actually took the action, is displayed as the responder.
I am only able to find the Original Recipeint username in the wf_notifications table.But where will the details of the Actual Responder name displayed in the notification be stored.
When I use the "wf_notification.Responder" function, I get the Original Recipeint username of the user but not the one who acted on the notification. Is there ANY way by which I can get the Actual responder user name who acted on the notification
select responder from wf_notifications where notification_id = <nid> also gives me the Original Recipeint username of the user but not the one who acted on the notification
I have an Oracle application that deals with a 29 hour clock. so the days begin at 5am instead of midnight. I am trying to get data from a table where time is up to certain number of hours, but when it reached the 00 clock my whole query returns no records, even though there is plenty of records before the midnight hour, because the data is saved as lets say 2530 instead of 0130
I am using this
SELECT *
FROM WORK.WORK_UNIT
WHERE (to_char (current_garage) = :entry_blk.curr_garage
OR 'all' = :entry_blk.curr_garage)
AND route >= 0 AND run >= 0
AND ((package_id > 0 and work_code = 99) OR
(package_id is null and work_code = 1))
and Nvl (Emp_No, 0) = 0
AND work_date = :entry_blk.p_work_date
AND on_time <= TO_CHAR(SYSDATE + :Entry_Blk.up_to_hour/24, 'HH24MI')
since oracle deals with a 24hour clock, my code doesn't seem to work if there is data for after midnight (00 hour). I am using :Entry_Blk.up_to_hour/24 to determine up to how many hours I want to see data, i.e.
on_time <= TO_CHAR(SYSDATE + 2/24, 'HH24MI')
will give me data up to 2 hours
