SQL & PL/SQL :: Composite Index Having Varchar2 Number And CLOB Column

Feb 25, 2012

I need to create a composite unique index on varchar2, number and CLOB column. I haven't used such index before that have the CLOB column indexing. I found the below link related to CLOB indexing...

[URL]......

Links from where I can get related info. Also I would like to know the impact of such index on performance. I have to store and process around 50 million records in such a way, will it be beneficial to use this index?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Change Column Datatype From CLOB To Varchar2

Jun 22, 2012

I have to change the datatype of a column from CLOB to varchar2, without changing the order of the columns. The table has no data.
I could find any other way other than dropping the CLOB columns and then adding new columns with varchar2 datatype. But this changes the order of the columns in the table.

Text :: Index For Domain Index With Composite Domain Index (CDI) Very Slow

Jun 27, 2012

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.

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

Composite Index - Performance?

Nov 8, 2012

I have a lot of queries on a table with WHERE clause:

WHERE CR_DATE > :y AND CR_VALUE = :x

Actually, there is an index on (CR_DATE) but much more selective index is on (CR_DATE, CR_VALUE). If I do not UPDATE any records on this table, is there any difference in INSERT operation (or another problem) when I replace actual index with multi-column index?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Using Clob Instead Of Varchar2

in our application we are using clob column instead of varchar2 because varchar2 does not allow more that 4000 chars, so Using clob allows to put data of any length, will it cause performance issues ? we have this column in almost in all tables .

Server Utilities :: CLOB Inserted As Varchar2

Oct 16, 2010

I ave a few fields in my flat file which might be a CLOB (not sure how the source is storing the data - need to check on that.) I am trying to load this data into my table column which is a varchar2(4000) . I am able to insert most of the data but few records are rejected because of Field too long error....

While debugging the problm I manually copied the field from flatfile and inserted into my table - bingo it worked. (The field was not more than 1000 bytes - only a few lines of information ) My question: When a field is not more than 1000 bytes why couldnt it get inserted as a varchar2?

Note : I cannot make the table column as CLOB because the problem is not with just one column - I have 10 fields which have this problem . So its not advisable to have 10 CLOB fields in the table......

I have specified OPTIONS (BINDSIZE=256000,READSIZE=256000,ROWS=1)

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

I have a table say MY_TAB with columns as below

emp_id number,

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 (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.

PL/SQL :: Remove Spaces Between Two Number From A Varchar2?

Oct 18, 2012

I have a question respect to remove spaces from a varchar2.

The varchar2 is '7987451 1234567' and i need that string like '7987451 1234567', because the field has a length of 15.

i try with this, but does nothing

Select TRIM('7987451 1234567') from dual

Other possibilities are find several spaces and try to replace with only one, but would a heavy work (may be with sentences Loop).

This problem is now in our loading processes. Exists some function to replace spaces between numbers of varchar2?

PL/SQL :: Automatic Rounding Off Number Datatype While Converted To VARCHAR2

May 29, 2013

I am facing issue related to Number data while it is being converted to Varchar2, it is automatically getting rounded off after 32 decimal place.My database version is "Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production".

1) create table test18 ( col1 varchar2(10), val Number);
create table succeeded.

2) insert into test18 values ('First', -347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679); -- After decimal 34 digits
1 rows inserted

insert into test18 values ('Second', -347026.64084996524674808857114487141296); -- After decimal 32 digits
1 rows inserted

3) select * from test18;

COL1 VAL
---------- ----------------------
First -347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679
Second -347026.64084996524674808857114487141296

4) As per the requirement, all the columns would need to be concatenated as a single string along with comma delimiter

select col1 || ',' || val as record_string
from test18;

RECORD_STRING
---------------------------------------------------
First,-347026.64084996524674808857114487141297
Second,-347026.64084996524674808857114487141296

"First" string got rounded off to 97 (last 2 digits) instead of 9679 but for "Second" record it holds the actual value.Only thing which I could figure out while the number is getting type casted to String, it is getting rounded off to 32 decimal place.throw off some light on it and provide the solution how the original record can be kept intact without rounding off.

Expected Output_
RECORD_STRING
---------------------------------------------------
First,-347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679
Second,-347026.64084996524674808857114487141296

SQL & PL/SQL :: Multipurpose Varchar2 Column Error When Converting To Date

Aug 16, 2011

i have a varchar2 column containing string values that can be converted to date i.e. ('31-JUL-11') and that column also contains text strings in it. i.e. ('Some string data...')

records whose column value can be converted to date are extractable via where clause (i.e. those rows are associated with some fix number / flag)

now when i try to use to_date function i get the error that

" ORA-01858 a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected "

in sql i have added a where clause to only pick rows with flag, but even then it gives the error.

using a subquery in the from clause eliminates the error, but when i create it in a view it again gives the same error.
