RMAN Compression Parameter
Aug 22, 2011
We are seeing volume issue when taking Rman level 0 backup for a database , the database version is 11.2.0.2 and its on RHEL 2.1. As 11g supports compression for RMAN, we have implemented so as to reduce the backup space used.
" CONFIGURE COMPRESSION ALGORITHM 'LOW' AS OF RELEASE 'DEFAULT' OPTIMIZE FOR LOAD TRUE "
However during full backup the volume size increases, meaning we have to increase /data volume (currently 500G) to more then a 1T for just rman to go through, else the backup hangs. Once backup is done we again bring down the volume size to less then 1T. The other compression parameters are HIGH and MEDIUM, hoever I am not very sure if changing to high or low will work as I couldn't find any right doc in meta link or may be I didn't searched correctly, I will continue to look for that.

I have a Tablespace DP_TS_LOBS and i stores only secure file blobs in it. DP_TS_LOBS has only one datafile "LOB1.dbf" . I have RAMN optimization parameter on. I also have the backup of DP_TS_LOBS tablespace.
RMAN> backup tablespace dp_ts_lobs;
after storing few blobs the data file "LOB1.DBF" got full and added a new data file "LOB2.DBF". Few more BLOB's were stored to DP_TS_LOBS tablespace. Then I tried to backup the DP_TS_LOBS table space again, as expected both the data file were backed up as there were changes to both the datafile since last backup.
I was expecting with Optimization Parameter on, if RMAN has a datafile with same DBID, checkpoint SCN, creation SCN,RESETLOGS SCN,time already in the backup and data file is offline RMAN wont backup that data file again.
After few minutes with out performing any activities in the database, I put the "LOB1.DBF" to offline and executed the DP_TS_LOBS table space backup again but I still see RMAN backing up the both the data files.
I was closely monitoring the "CHECKPOINT_CHANGE#" and "CHECKPOINT_TIME" columns of v$datafile, the values for those columns changes for data files "LOB1.DBF" and "LOB2.DBF" when I execute backup tablespace command on DP_TS_LOBS even thought there was not any activity in the database to add or update or delete blob that are stored in DP_TS_LOBS table space.
Initially I thought it can be due to some unwritten committed blocks of dp_ts_lobs table space in the memory that got written to the datafiles while executing backup tablespace command and that why i saw the change in checkpoint scn and checkpoint time , but it keeps happening every time when I tried multiple times.

We have started developing a new application to compress tablespaces based on the business specification.
This is a Data Warehouse.
Version: Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
And there is a requirement to find the uncompressed segments,to find whether the tablespace is already compressed or not.

Hybrid Columnar Compression is dependent on the underlying storage system. See Oracle Database Licensing Information for more information.
The below is from the Oracle® Database PL/SQL Packages and Types Reference
Compression Constant Compression Level Description
COMP_FOR_OLTP 2 OLTP compression
COMP_FOR_QUERY_HIGH 4 High compression level for query operations
COMP_FOR_QUERY_LOW 8 Low compression level for query operations
COMP_FOR_ARCHIVE_HIGH 16 High compression level for archive operations
COMP_FOR_ARCHIVE_LOW 32 Low compression level for archive operations
To use Compression Level 4 or higher do we have to have ZFS or Pillar storage ?

Database version: 11.2.0.3(Exadata)
We want to use archive compression for our standby(standalone non-exadata). We don't have license for Advanced Compression. Is the archive compression possible without Advanced Compression?

We are trying to add 2 columns in a partitioned table.but we are getting below error:

But, it is not a compressed table.
select table_name, compression from user_tables

I had created a Primary key and wanted to compress as per my senior instructions.Below are my results the size increased after compression.
select compression from dba_indexes where index_name = 'TEST_IDX';
Compression
----------
DISABLED
select sum(blocks) no_of_blocks, (sum(blocks)*8192)/(1024*1024)size_MB
[code]....
We ran a compression on the primary key index TEST_IDX
ALTER INDEX SCOTT.TEST_IDX REBUILD INITRANS 15 TABLESPACE DATA_01 COMPRESS;
ANALYZE INDEX SCOTT.TEST_IDX VALIDATE STRUCTURE;
Now when i ran the below select statement:
select compression from dba_indexes where index_name = 'TEST_IDX';
Compression
----------
ENABLED
select sum(blocks) no_of_blocks, (sum(blocks)*8192)/(1024*1024)size_MB
[code]....
As you can see after compression the blocks and size has been increased, but i ran for many tables and other indexes, we observed the blocks and size was reduced by 50-70%, i am not sure why this happened to the index compression.

Using Oracle 11g's compression feature in production? I haven't read anything negative yet, that doesn't meant that there isn't anything that could have an adverse affect. I wanted to check to see if there are any affects on the performance or any disadvantages of using this compression feature. I have tested this on one my major tablespace and I did see a big difference in the reduce size on the tablespace but I am still hesitated to put this into production.

I am trying to enable OLTP compression on tables and at tablespace level for the tables
Steps I am following are:
1. Move indexes to its own tablespace
2. enable OLTP compression at table level:
alter table table_name move compress for OLTP
3. Rebuild indexes
4. Issue I have is what to do with tables with LOB columns
ALTER TABLE lob_table MOVE LOB (LOB_COL) STORE AS (TABLESPACE index_tbsp); -- Is this correct?
5. alter tablespace data_tablespace default compress for OLTP;
I have a question, is the sequence of steps correct. For tables with LOB columns do we needto move lobindex to index tablespace. Beacuse lobsegment and lobindex are created in data tablespace?

1)i have 2 SWP TABLES. while dropping a column, i am getting error -
ORA-39726: unsupported add/drop column operation on compressed tables.
2) when i checked compression status, those were not compressed. But as per our code standard, SWP tables should not be in compress mode.
OWNER TABLE_NAME COMPRESS COMPRESS_FOR
------------------------------ ------------------------------ -------- ------------
NOVAR PAYMENT_SWP DISABLED
OWNER TABLE_NAME COMPRESS COMPRESS_FOR
------------------------------ ------------------------------ -------- ------------
NOVAR PREPAYMENT_SWP DISABLED
3) as a workaround, i compressed these 2 SWP tables with OLTP option, and then i was able to drop the column from these 2 SWP tables.
4) Below statement is correct or not ?
IF A TABLE USING BLOCK LEVEL COMPRESSION, THEN this error will come - ORA-39726: unsupported add/drop column operation on compressed tables.
if above statement is correct, then how to find out whether table data is using block level compression ?
5) we have DBMS_COMPRESSION.GET_COMPRESSION_TYPE. using this i just tried to find out, but i am getting "1" as output. I am not getting the exact meaning of it.
confirm what is the conclusion on this ?

I have noticed that Oracle text related objects, particularily the $I tables are some of the largest objects in our database. I have been actively pursuing utilizing Oracle advanced compression in our databases for OLTP table compression and LOB object compression. I have been unable to find any documentation or notes on if it is advisable to implement either table OLTP or LOB compression for Oracle text objects.

I am using oracle forms 10g and basically we have a system that takes over 300 photos on a daily basis, this all works fine and with no issues except for say maybe 2-3 photos a month. Occasionally we will get a 'corrupt photo' (it not actually corrupt, it displays in everything as it should except forms) . When we encounter these photos forms just crashes out and the user is unable to query the record with the associated photo until it is deleted and a new one is taken (or alternatively if we take the photo from the database open it in paint.net and just hit save it will then work). There is no difference that we can see in the photo which doesnt work and those that do work. I have tried using WRITE_IMAGE_FILE to save the photo to disk and Read_Image_File to read from the disk to see if that makes a difference. If i save the file as jpeg and no compression it still crashes, if i save it with low compression it works fine but we lose quality which we dont want to lose. Bitmap wont work at all. Saving as JFIF and GIF works fine without any compression but we still lose quality.
The photo will display fine if we use a javabean to display it but in this instance a javabean is not an option.
One weird thing we noticed is that when we are on the form that crashes with these photos and query back a working photo first, and THEN query the 'corrupt photo' the corrupt photo displays fine, but if we go into the form and query a corrupt photo first forms crashes as explained.

We have a requirement from the customer to start using data and index compression in our 11g database.. Is this something available in Oracle 10g,11g without any additional costs? We are not sure if this will work with our application so we will have to test it in-house, is it possible to compress the existing table data/index to test it out?

Given facts:
rman is used to backup database A to disk
rman is used to put those disk backups to tape
rman is used to duplicate database A to database B on another host
the duplicate process worked fine before we started testing encryption
the duplicate process worked fine with database A having an encrypted column in one table in a non-encrypted tablespace
Now, database A has an encrypted tablespace with nothing currently in it. The duplicate process now ultimately fails with ORA-19913, unable to decrypt backup.
I am not using encrypted backups, not specifying encrypt or decrypt anywhere in the duplication process. The only thing that is encrypted is the one tablespace in database A. I have the same wallet files on Host A (database A) and Host B (database B). Wallets are open. So why does the duplication process fail because the backup cannot be decrypted?

Query to be in the procedure :
begin
update table1 set table1.col1 = (select parameter2 from
table2 where table2.x = table1.x and table2.x = parameter1) ;
commit;
end;
parameter2 will be having the columnname to be passed. And everytime different columnname will be passed to this procedure.

I am writing a procedure in which I have a input string parameter in the following way..('NYC,ATL,OKC,KAC,LA'). I need to use that string to search values in the table.
Example
create or replace procedure search_city(p_string varchar2)
/*
paramater will be like ('NYC,ATL,OKC,KAC,LA')
*/
is
v_city varchar2(40)
begin
for i in (select city_name from cities
where city_code in (p_string )
) loop
v_city := i.city_name;

I need to test a parameter in a script that must adhere to what is currently in the database.For example, when a user enters the value when prompted from this script, ("Enter the schema copy desired: " ) the value must be of the current values in the db:, it would be something like this:
Values currently in DB: copyofschema201110 (the 2011 is the year, and 10 would be the month of oct).
copyofschema201109
copyofschema201108
So, if the user enters the value 'abc' (an incorrect value), then I would like the script to stop the user, and kick back a message, say from dbms_output.put_line, and force the user not to go forward, but re-enter a correct value.
