Aug 27, 2012We have occurrences of enq : TX - index contentions in the database. Using the SQL ID, we have identified the INSERT statement and the table which they are trying to insert.
This table has almost 25 different indexes, some of which are unique as well.I am wondering how to identify the actual index causing issue, out of these 25 indexes.
Is there any way to pin point to the name of index which is causing the lock?My plan is, once the index is identified, I would like to check the extents and inittrans and other attributes of this index to fix.

Security :: Lock User Accounts In Oracle Database
Jul 12, 2011I have a doubt in locking user account in oracle database.I was told to drop some unusable users in database which my clients dont require them.I verified the dependent objects of those users but not sure if these users can be dropped.
Instead can i make those user accounts locked so that they cannot connect to database? Would there be any impact on database performance if i lock those user accounts?
Is locking an account and dropping users is similar in anyway?

SYS JOB Causing Waits
Oct 25, 2013I am using, Release 11.2.0.3.0 of oracle. In our database we observe, high 'Application' wait followed by 'other' and 'User I/O'. After investigating through the wait class 'Other', i found that 90% of the wait is due to wait event 'Enq: WF Contention ' that to excatly 5 PM to 5.30 PM daily. Then i found from the dba_hist_active_sess_history, that the sessions experiencing this waits are oracle internal(M004),
Now i can see two of the oracle jobs has been scheduled at this particular time.
1)dbms_autotask_prvt.age
2)dbms_scheduler.auto_purge
And these were having frequency daily.So, i am suspecting these were experiencing the waits. Now my question is, can i decrease the frequency(may be weekly) of these jobs and it will not put any negative impact on my DB? Or should change the schedule time to some less peak hour or whether these are 'not required' and can be disabled?

SQL & PL/SQL :: ALTER TABLE Causing Procedure To Go INVALID?
Aug 3, 2010Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.6.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.1.0.6.0 - Production
"CORE 11.1.0.6.0 Production"
I altered existing table EVENT_SUB - added 3 columns. After that, I noticed all the procedures which had mention of this table name went in INVALID status, even if its simple SELECT, ALTER OR INSERT as shown below..
SELECT * FROM EVENT_SUB
OR
INSERT INTO EVENT_SUB...
OR
ALTER TABLE EVENT_SUB
WHERE....
So I had to recompile all the procedures associated with it. Is there any other ways to achieve this, like a line of code to add in the procedure itself, right after this DDL statements.
Sometimes i use this:
select object_name, object_type from all_objects where owner='TOYCOM' and status='INVALID'
Then, I would simply recompile the invalid objects.
For indexes, i do...
alter index <name> rebuild;
BTW, I did try to preview message, and then click on Create Topic, it gave me error..again.

View 3 Replies View RelatedForms :: Trigger Causing Error ORA-06502 And ORA-01403?
May 2, 2006 My layout is working well enough triggers though are causing me some problems. I am getting the following error message just about every time I write a trigger so I am getting the feeling I am doing something fundamentally wrong. Like there is something I am just not getting because I am getting this error on the simplest of actions.
The error:
FRM-40735: WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger raised unhandled exception ORA-06502.
--------------------------------------------------------------
ORA-01403: no data found
The trigger is this:
cs3_prog.set_date_mode;
this calls the following procedure in the package cs3_prog:
procedure set_date_mode IS
BEGIN
:cs3_data.street := 'something';
end;
this in the past did a lot more but I kept throwing stuff out to see what could have been causing the problem. This does actually work if I ok through the first error message and then try entering data again into the field the trigger is tied to. On this second firing of the trigger is does successfully alter the value.
Just the fact that this is happening every time I create a trigger and it seems to happen regardless of what I have the trigger doing leads me to believe I have something fundamentally wrong and I would love to have it set straight.
XML DB :: DeleteXml() Causing Data Format Error In Database
Jul 21, 2013I'm using the oracle xml db 11g in my website application. Last week I found that using the deletexml() to delete a node in the xml may cause a terrible problem that the rest data in the database had wrong xml format. I wonder is it a bug when using binary xml storage. My xml data is describe below,
<root> <nodes> <node id="1"> <name>John</name> <age>16</age> <hobby>football</hobby> </node> <node id="2"> <name>Alex</name> <age>22</age> <hobby>table tenisl</hobby> </node> ..... <nodes></root>
I using deletexml() to delete just a node once time, "update projects set object_value=deletexml(object_value, '/root/nodes/node[@id="1"]')" Usually it successes and the rest data is as expected, but sometime, I find that after deleting a node, any query in the database except "select * from projects" gets null. And the rest data has wrong format like below,
<root> <nodes> <node id="1"> <name>John</name> <age>/hobby> </node> <node id="2"> <name>Alex</name> <age>22</age> <hobby>table tenisl</hobby> </node> ..... <nodes></root>
Just one format error causes the whole xml data valueless, but it seems that in most time the deletexml() works well.

Oracle 11g R2 - (SHAD) Process Causing ORA-00020 Maximum Number Of Processes
May 23, 2013Oracle 11g R2 on WIndows 20o8 R2 Standard edition
I have a test server that keeps running into ORA-00020: maximum number of processes error each night. Our current setting is '600' processes to be allowed. There are no users to this database except myself. No front end app connects to it either.
I found that ORACLE.EXE (SHAD) process coming from SYSMAN user is the one eating up all the processes and eventually causing that error.
From v$session, the program is OMS.
From v$process, the hostname is the server itself.
I narrowed it down to restarting the ConsoleService, if i do that, then the number of processes drops down. So now im not sure why something within the ConsoleService is logging in, taking a process and not releasing it...What i can check?

Server Utilities :: Data Pump Import Order - Causing Constraint Violation
Nov 16, 2010We are trying to import data into existing tables in a schema using data pump
However the foreign key tables are being imported first and then the master table data thus violating the constraints
Apparently it seems larger tables are being imported first regardless of referential integrity constraints thus causing constraint violation (contrary to my understanding)
Is it a normal behaviour during data pump import?
Is it possible that the keys being sequence generated are causing this?
As I understand import will commit after each table In that case can we defer commit at all at the expense of large undo, set constraints to deferrable and try the import?

View 3 Replies View RelatedSecurity :: Enhance Security Of Windows And Recover Lost / Forgotten Password?
Nov 16, 2010Lost Windows password? Forgot Windows password? Your PC was hacked? Therefore, it is a basic step for every Windows users to enhance the security of Windows password. In the networks, it is found that a number of user's passwords are easy to guess. Only the smallest groups are the most security conscious and select passwords that are mixed lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers and punctuation to create cryptic passwords. Adopting strong password is one of the most effective ways to ensure system security. Here are several methods for you to enhance the security of your passwords in Windows 7/2000/XP/Vista and so on. You'd better remember the methods below unless you want to reset Windows password from time to time.
1. Is random password a great password?
A common myth is that totally random passwords like Ht3&e#L%5d@$B are the best passwords. This is not true. While they may be strong passwords, they are usually difficult to remember, slow to type, and sometimes vulnerable to attacks against the password generating algorithm. It is easy to create passwords that are strong but much easier to remember by using a few simple techniques. For example, consider the password "Luck-73@Better?". This password utilizes uppercase and lowercase letters, two numbers, and three symbols. The password is 15 characters long and can be memorized with very little effort. Moreover, this password can be typed very fast. The portion"Luck" and "Better" alternate between left and right-handed keys on the keyboard, improving speed, decreasing typos, and decreasing the chances of someone being able to discover your password by watching you.
2. Create the long Windows password
Although a password may eventually be discovered through some means, it is possible to create a password that cannot be cracked in any reasonable time. If a password is long enough, it will take so long or require so much processing power to crack it. That is essentially the same as being unbreakable (at least for most hackers).
3. Create the Windows password constantly?
This may be good advice for some high-risk passwords, but it is not the best policy for every user. It is frustrating for a user to have to constantly think of and remember new passwords every 30 days. It may be better to focus on stronger passwords and better user awareness rather than limiting password age. A more realistic time for the common user may be 90-120 days.
4. Write down Windows password in a proper place
Sometimes it is necessary for some users losing and forgetting complex passwords easily to write down them somewhere proper. However, it is important to educate users on how to write down passwords properly. Obviously, a sticky note on the monitor is not a good idea, but storing passwords in a safe or even a locked cabinet may be sufficient.
5. 14 characters is the optimal password length
Each character that you add to your password increases the protection. Your passwords should be 8 or more characters in length; 14 characters or longer is the Optimal Password Length. Many systems also support use of the space bar in passwords, so you can create a phrase made of many words. It is not easier to forget and lose, as well as longer than a simple password, and harder to guess.
6. Try not to use the same Windows password for all accounts
Some users always make the same passwords for every account to make it easy to remember. In that case, when any one of them lost, your other information protected by that password will be in danger as well. It is serious to use different passwords for different systems and accounts.
7. Do not use some common words that other users maybe guess
Most of users prefer to use some common words to remember easily, for example, login name, birth date, driver's license, passport number, pets' name and other words contained their personal information someone knows. In that case, your Windows system will not be safe anymore. Moreover, do remember not to use some words spelled backwards, abbreviations, sequences or repeated characters and adjacent letters, such as, asdfgh, 123456, 888888, abcdef and so on.
You can smoothly use your Windows now because the strong and powerful Windows password is created successfully, Certainly, I believe that many users lost Windows password and forgot Windows password, then you need have to reset Windows password or recover Windows password. It is a big problem for plenty of Windows users that how to reset Windows password. how to recover Windows password and they are puzzled by resetting windows password, for instance, reset Windows 7 password, recover password Windows XP, remove Windows Vista password and other operating systems after they create the password with complex letters, numbers and symbols. However, it is unnecessary to worry and it is said that things will eventually sort themselves out. There are many ways to reset forgotten Windows password, including use windows password reset disk and windows password reset software, like Super Windows Password Reset, a professional windows password reset software which could enable you to logon to Windows smoothly without reinstalling system.
Security :: Moving Application Security To Oracle From Sybase
Aug 18, 2010In Sybase, my application was using system tables to perform application login security. Those tables obviously don't exist in Oracle. I am looking for ways to provide the following functionality in an Oracle world:
1. How to determine 'x' days of inactivity based on "last login date"?
2. How to determine when a new user logs in for the first time and force them to change their password?
3. If we need to reset a users password, how can we require the user to change their password?
4. Is there any other option other than storing a user-id/password in the application code for locking a user's account if their account needs to be locked due to inactivity?
5. In the USER_USERS view there is a status column. What the different status's can be?
