SQL & PL/SQL :: SUBSTR / INSTR - Isolate MVNAME Schema?
Aug 28, 2012
i need to isolate the MVNAME schema from the following job;
dbms_refresh.refresh('"SCHEMA"."MVNAME"');
how to use substr/instr to isolate it?so far I have
select substr(what,instr(what,'"',-1,2),15) from dba_jobs;
But its proving a bit tricky to nail it.

I need to search a pattern backwards in a CLOB field.Function DBMS_LOB.instr does not work with '-1' offset (where to start the search) as instr does.
Parameters: instr(text_to_be_searched, pattern, offset, nth)
Example: I want to search 'Hello world' for the first instance of the letter 'o' starting from the end, backwards.As you can see, result for DBMS_LOB.instr is null when entered -1 for offset.
select
DBMS_LOB.instr('Hello world','o',-1,1) lob_i,
instr('Hello world','o',-1,1) std_i
from dual;

I have a requirement where the user input values will be passed as comma separated string to backend, which is queried against the table using instr. But the index present on the table is not using the index , due to the instr function.How can I create a index in such a way that The instr function uses it.
CREATE TABLE TEST_IDX
(
CCN VARCHAR2(10 CHAR),
SKU_NUM VARCHAR2(10 CHAR),
MOD VARCHAR2(10 CHAR),
SKU_STATUS VARCHAR2(2 CHAR),
RPT_FLAG VARCHAR2(2 CHAR),
CYCLE_AS_OF_DATE DATE,
SMP_IDENTIFIER NUMBER,
MEASURE_NAME VARCHAR2(100 CHAR)
);
CREATE INDEX TEST_IDX1 ON TEST_IDX
(CCN, SMP_IDENTIFIER, MOD, CYCLE_AS_OF_DATE, RPT_FLAG,
MEASURE_NAME);
The below query is going for full table scan due to this.
select * from test_idx where (INSTR (','||'E10000'||',', ',' || ccn || ',') <> 0 OR 'E10000' = 'DEFAULT')
and mod='90396' and rpt_flag='O' and smp_identifier=2
how to recreate the above index so that these queries uses this index.

I have a script that is using the INSTR function to search through a block of data for a specific string (CALL). I am ONLY looking for that string set but unfortunately, there are other words within that block of text that have that string set within it (e.g. CALL_MY_PHONE). Is there any way to make the INSTR search DISTINCT? Below is the code that I am using:
to_number(DECODE(INSTR(ph.block,'CALL'),0,0,1))

Trying to get a number out of an error backtrack
06512: at "SCHEMA.PROCEDURE", line 4
I only need to take the 4 out of this message. Of course the number might be anything from 1 to 10000.
The database languages might differ so I can't do this using
v_line_no:=SUBSTR(v_line_no,INSTR(v_line_no,'line')+5)
As it would not find any 'line' inside the string.

We have a SSRS Front end screen which sends multi-select column values as comma separated strings to back end ( Oracle 10g) procedure .
The procedure builds the string by inserting single quotes in the following manner.
P_BU_LST is the parameter which have comma separated values
'1234,3456,4577' i.e, BU ids selected by user in front end
the procedure inserts single quotes to this paramer value
i.e., '1234','3456','4577
v_bu_lst := '''' || REPLACE(v_selbu, ',', ''',''')|| '''';
This is used the where clause of the REF CURSOR SELECT query which send the data back to SSRS
ie.,
SELECT BU.*
FROM BU_DETAIL BU
WHERE INSTR(V_BU_LST,BU_ID) <> 0;
INSTR has a chance to fail in this scenario if the value send from the front end is 123456,3456,4577
here 123456 does not exist in table, but it will be true for INSTR and values 1234 from table will be send back to SSRS which is wrong. Earlier I was using a function to convert the comma separated values to multi-rows and treat it like a lookup table.
But the main table has around million records , and each row has to processed against each row of lookup table, which makes it slower. To avoid this I used INSTR which is faster but can give wrong results.

I want to import a schema from one database schema to another schema b from db STBTST to STATST and from schema CMSSTAGINGB to CMSSTAGINGA
I first want to test this to my own schema (mvanmannekes) CMSSTAGINGA is filled at the moment.
So i've created a dump from STBTST-CMSTAGINGB For importing im using this statement:
impdp mvanmannekes/password schemas=cmsstagingb remap_tablespace=cmsliveb_data:cmslivea_data
remap_tablespace=cmsliveb_index:cmslivea_index
remap_schema=cmsstagingb:mvanmannekes directory=expdp_dir dumpfile=cmstagingb.dmp
I'm getting this:
Connected to: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options
Master table "MVANMANNEKES"."SYS_IMPORT_SCHEMA_01" successfully loaded/unloaded
Starting "MVANMANNEKES"."SYS_IMPORT_SCHEMA_01": mvanmannekes/********

This piece of code returns this below:
RPAD(LPAD(' ',12, ' ') || SUBSTR(adj_second_line,(INSTR(adj_second_line,'~',1,1) + 1),
(INSTR(adj_second_line,'~',1,2) - INSTR(adj_second_line,'~',1,1)
- 1)),80,' ') ADJ_SECOND_LINE
Current Output ( ADJ#1-2M1YE2 TYPE 20100524 20100624 1MO/0DY )
===============================================================================================
1) I would like to alter that code above and substr the back 68 characters only with the 12 spaces padded in front, and the trailing nulls to total 80 characters staying as is. How would I put the below substr into that piece of code above?
Desired Output ( 20100524 20100624 1MO/0DY )
SUBSTR(adj_second_line,LENGTH(adj_second_line)-69)
===============================================================================================
2) I also would like the take whatever else there is preceding the 69th character counting it from the back and calling the column ADJ_FIRST_LINE.
Desired Output2 (ADJ#1-2M1YE2 TYPE)
No leading or trailing nulls and This is not a fixed amount of characters.
===============================================================================================
Result would be:
ADJ_FIRST_LINE
-----------------
ADJ#1-2M1YE2 TYPE
ADJ_SECOND_LINE
---------------
20100524 20100624 1MO/0DY

I get just this ( R

We have an application with many separate databases (one per customer). Given they share the same business requirements (service hours, change mgmt etc), we're interested in potentially consolidating the separate DBs (which are relatively small) into separate schemas within a fewer no of databases to reduce the overhead.
Our issue is that the application is hard-coded to use a specific administrator and application connection user name. Changing this is unfortunately not an option.
Given this limitation, is there any possibility to map a generic user into a customer-specific schema based on the database service that they connect to? Each customer connects to different database services but may use the same user name. We considered using private synonyms but this seems to acheive the opposite (i.e. many different users could connect and map to a single users schema). One thing to point out is that where there is a single user name, it is acceptable for a single password to be used across the different customer DBs as they will be a single admin/user.

Backup table is created.
After taking the Backup table
delete himan;(deleting the records)
2) i log in to another session(toys)
exp toys/toys@orcl file=20121103TOYs.DMP TABLES=(HIMAN) /* Particular table is taken*/
3) i log in to toy schema
imp toy/toy@orcl file=<dump file name> TABLES=(HIMAN) INDEXES=N IGNORE=Y
i tried the above statement it taken so much of time..
Later i tried
I log in to toy session
i rename the table with other name.
later i imported
imp toy/toy@orcl file=<dump file name> TABLES=(HIMAN) IGNORE=Y FULL=Y

A user is using an ad hoc tool similar to SQL Developer called PeopleSoft Application Designer.
He creates a connection to the db, then issues an alter session set current_schema = 'restricted_schema'. The connected user does not have direct privileges on the "restricted_schema" which they call SYSADM.
After changing the schema context in that manner he creates objects in SYSADM. A schema trigger is then fired and grants privileges on the new objects created in SYSADM. Doing the same in either SQL Plus or SQL Developer does not fire the schema trigger.
I think SQL Plus and SQL Dev are working as they should. Altering the session like that does not change your identity - just the schema context. But, when you examine v_$session, the connection with this other tool looks exactly the same as one from SQL Plus or SQL Dev when changing the schema context in the session.
Instead of trying to figure out what this other tool is doing, is there any way for that schema trigger to fire when using this process from one of our tools?
