I have created table as below
create table emp_temp as select * from emp;
the table is created, but the constraints are not copied. Is there any way to copy all the constraints.
Am creating a table based on some integrity constraints, but it's not working.
CREATE TABLE member
(
member_id NUMBER(10),
last_name VARCHAR2(25) NOT NULL,
first_name VARCHAR2(25),
[code],,,
Error:
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-02270: no matching unique or primary key for this column-list
02270. 00000 - "no matching unique or primary key for this column-list"
*Cause: A REFERENCES clause in a CREATE/ALTER TABLE statement gives a column-list for which there is no matching unique or primary key constraint in the referenced table.
*Action: Find the correct column names using the ALL_CONS_COLUMNScatalog view
the query, to get the foreign key constraints and related table fro give table.

The requirement necessitates a new table to map car to manufacturer. This mapping table may later be expanded to contain other attributes Engine, MPG, etc to hold details specific to a car.But this is in future.
Create Table Car_Mapping_Details
(Car_Cd VARCHAR2(5),
Manufacturer_Cd VARCHAR2(5));
--Primary Key Constraint
ALTER TABLE Car_Mapping_Details
ADD CONSTRAINT Car_Mapping_Details_pk PRIMARY KEY (Car_Cd );
--Not able to create this as Car_cd is already a PK in this table and therefore has Unique Index
ALTER TABLE Car_Mapping_Details ADD CONSTRAINT Car_Mapping_Details_fk1
FOREIGN KEY (Car_Cd)REFERENCES Car (Car_Cd);
[code]....
But in this case the Car_Mapping_Details.Car_cd is itself is a primary key and therefore has Unique index.Although I was able to create foreign key constraint on Car_mapping_details.car_cd column (which is also Primary Key), I was not able to create Foreign Key Index on this column. It gives me Quote:ORA-01408: such column list already indexed.In other words, not creating foreign index for foreign key column lead to table-level lock? Or will the Unique Index in that primary key column be sufficient to avoid table-level lock?
I've tried to search this out on the forums, but I'm not finding anything useful. Point me to a resource that discusses the performance considerations of deferred foreign key constraints? I'm only interested in foreign keys.
How much of a performance difference does it really make?
Say we have an employee(id_emp) table with a primary key on id_emp. We have also some history tables emp_stuff with columns say (id_emp, dat_event, some_stuff) with primary key id_emp, dat_event.
This means that we have a unique index on (id_emp,dat_event). We also have a foreign key id_emp that references employee(id_emp). When we update id_emp on employee, we still have a lock on emp_stuff. According to this (end of the page) :
Quote:So, in short, with releases prior to Oracle Database 11g Release 1, you will want an index on the foreign key of the child table if you do any of the following:
Update the parent table primary key
Delete from the parent table
Merge into the parent table
So is id_emp in emp_stuff considered as indexed (through the unique index of the primary key) or do we have to add an explicit index
like this CREATE INDEX emp_stuff ON emp_stuff(id_emp) to avoide child table locks?
I am trying to establish PK-FK relationship between 2 tables. Table 1 has VACC_ID as a primary key. Table 2 has VACC_ID and SCH_ID as the primary keys. I am trying to add VACC_ID from Table 2 as a FK to Table 1. This is the code I used
ALTER TABLE Table_1
ADD CONSTRAINT FK_VACC_ID
FOREIGN KEY (VACC_ID)
REFERENCES Table_2(VACC_ID)
I also tried to add it without writing the query and editing the Table 1. By default, I am getting 2 columns(both VACC_ID) in the local column being referenced to the 2 primary keys(VACC_ID and SCH_ID) of table 2. I also uploaded the screeshot of the error, when I run the query.
I am working on a new project in OBIEE. I am asked to do the data modeling in the database using oracle sql developer. I have to create the joins based on the requirements. I have the tables created already. But the primary keys for few tables are not defined for few tables. PK-FK joins are also not done properly.
My questions are
(1) If I have to define the primary key for the existing tables can I do that using the alter table command or should I create the table all over again and then define it?
(2) If I have to make the changes in the existing PK-FK joins how do i go about doing that?

I have a requirement like below
I have 3 tables (Prospect,customer,user) and I have a contact_dtls table .
In prospect table Prospect_id is the primary like this customer_id in customer table and user_id in the user table
in the contact_dtls table I have a column contact_id and other cols.The contact_id can be from prospect_id,customer_id and user_id in other words we can tell the prospect can be a contact or the customer can be a contact and the user also can be a contact also.
Now the question is "is it possible to maintain primary key and foreign key relationship with this design that means the prospect_id,customer_id and user_id would be the foreign keys to the contact_dtls table.
How can I create a list of items in a field, for instance lets say I have a table called car and one of the sub categories is parts. How can I make it so that parts can be any number of pre-defined entities? Or even table, for instance if I make a table called parts how can I use that in the car table in place of parts?
My second question is about using foreign keys as primary keys. If I am writing an email sql DB and I decided to use the members usrname as the primary key in the member table but then made another table that lists all the emails and decided to make the foreign key member username the primary key there.
Is that safe to do or should i create a sequence in which to identify a primary key for the email list table? Also what if I extend member to several other tables and use it as a primary key there too, seems like a kind of dangerous way to do things...
I want to create a store procedure to copy data from a source tables(which may not have any constraints defined) to a table which has primary key, foreign key and unique key constraints.
Any records which are rejected due to these constraints not being satisfied need to go another table.
Once the initial data load is done, these procedures need to be automated(through cron) to do the future incremental uploads in the same manner.
im on 11G R2 database on linux 5.4, while configuring a physical standby from scratch, remember i dont want to use RMAN, when i copy datafiles from primary to standby, is it necessary to shutdown primary and then copy datafiles ? or i can use SCP command and copy even though primary is up in read write mode?

View 2 Replies View Relatedin a table how many foreign keys can we create.
View 10 Replies View RelatedThere are 2 tables : Table A and Table B.Table B has foreign key reference to Table A.There are 2 forms in the application based on table A (form 1) and table B (form 2).
Now when we open form 2, the functionality is such that it acquires a lock on table B for the selected record during the search criteria. Lock is acquired by using "select 1 from table_B where column = :column for update no wait".So when the form 2 is opened by any other user/session and same record is tried to be selected, then an exception is raised to the user that the current record is being edited by some other user and does not allow him to edit that record.
Now imagine if User has opened screen 2 (One record in Table B has been locked). With this lock existing, we open form 1, and click a button which performs a COMMIT_FORM. At this point the form hangs. On checking the locked objects, there is a lock on both table A and table B. When the Form 2 is closed, then the Form 1 which was hanging a while ago starts responding.
When the foreign key relationship is dropped and the above scenario is tried, there is no issue encountered. Form 1 works fine even if form 2 is open.We are not supposed to drop the Foreign key relationship as well.
How do know all the constraints that are present on the data in a table in oracle ??

drop table t1;
create table t1 (slno number, acc_no number);
drop table t2;
create table t2 (acc_no number primary key, acc_name varchar2(100));

It is provided that the values of acc_no in t2 and acc_no1 in t3 are unique.Now it required that while inserting into t1 , the system will check either t2 or t3 tables.
I have now created my tables and now I want to populate them with my data but I get errors below is my full sql command. From last time I learned that one foreign key can be implemented in one table and cannot be duplicated to work around this I changed my foreign key as you can see to "fkone" . but why am I getting errors when trying to add information I mean I have not gotten errors in the first two tables so what am I "doing wrong/ not understanding"

I want to truncate table partition but I'm getting error:
CODEORA-02266: unique/primary keys in table referenced by enabled foreign keys
because of table has a nested table. Currently this column is not in use so I could drop it, but I want to avoid it (table is huge). Is there another posibility to do truncate partitions in this table? ALTER TABLE ... SET UNUSED doesn't resolve the problem.
can a table level check constraints have conditional checking (if else clause or case conditional structures) and checks which are limited through something like a where clause which inside the table level check constraints.And can a table level check constraints refer to a column in another table column which should have a the same value.
