Server Administration :: Start Using Data And Index Compression In 11g Database
Jun 27, 2012
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?
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 ?

Our database size is 100GB and i removed few records from a table and rebuild the index.The size of Index reduced considerably after Index rebuild but now i see our database size increased to 115GB.I know online rebuild creates second index which is also removed after the build is finished then why the increase in database size?Is there a way so it shows up more space ?
select sum(bytes) from dba_segments where owner='abc' and segment_name='abc_index_1'; 8GB
ALTER INDEX abc_index_1 REBUILD ONLINE ;
select sum(bytes) from dba_segments where owner='abc' and segment_name='abc_index_1'; 2GB
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.
I have setup a RAC machine of two nodes on Oracle 10GR2(with 10.2.0.4 Patchset). All setup went well. I am able to connect one node from sqlplus but the other node is connected to idle instance. I tried to startup the database with mount and nomount option but it fails. Following is the error :
SQL> startup nomount; ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters ORA-01565: error in identifying file '+DATA/LCLCLKS/spfileLCLCLKS.ora' ORA-17503: ksfdopn:2 Failed to open file +DATA/LCLCLKS/spfileLCLCLKS.ora ORA-15077: could not locate ASM instance serving a required diskgroup SQL>
I am using ASM and it is running on both nodes even I am able to connect the SQL prompt from it. I am able to view the diskgroups I created from the second node but through "asmcmd" option I can't go inside the disk group. It gives :
ASMCMD> ls DATA/ INDEX/ ASMCMD> cd DATA asmcmd: diskgroup 'data' does not exist or is not mounted
On first node, everything is fine and I am able to import the database on it, as well.
I have oracle8i database on windows 2008 but not a domin server now i have domin server and i want to join this server on domin network i try to join domin it fine but my oracle8i service did not start what to do ?
old hostname=bagmati afterchange hostname=bagmati.alkatel.org.np
1. Install patch 6613550 (./rootpre.sh) 2. Install 10.2.0.1 for AIX 64-bit 3. Install 10.2.0.5 Patch Set 4. Create Database 5. Created/Setup LISTENER and TNSNAMES (test connection successful)
After installation of database, everything went well until we tried to restart the server, what happened is that we cannot start the listener, the error was:
TNS-12555: TNS:permission denied TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error TNS-00525: Insufficient privilege for operation IBM/AIX RISC System/6000 Error: 1: Not owner
What i did to resolve this problem is to change the owner of /tmp to oracle, after that i was able to start the listener. ($lsnrctl start) The problem is that our sys admin said that the /tmp directory is being used by the OS and it's owner must be root. But if i return it to root, the listener will not start again. (After server restart)
BTW, our /tmp has enough space so we did not perform the following steps from the installation guidelines:
SQL> startup ORACLE instance started. Total System Global Area 522092544 bytes Fixed Size 2090224 bytes
[code]...
Database altered.
SQL> select count(*) from scott.test; select count(*) from scott.test * ERROR at line 1: ORA-01219: database not open: queries allowed on fixed tables/views only
We have an Oracle Server database of Size 50 GB having 10 GB Data. And Planning to have a new Database Server of 200GB . So my question is after moving all the 10 GB data to 200 GB Database Server, will the performance of the system come down? Will it reduce the speed?
Now i have one problem. I have two database oracle 10g and install on two server (call is A and B). I already create database link between two database. Each database has over 200 tables.
Basically structure two database is same, but database A have data real time, database B is stand by server. Now i want to synchronize all data of database A to database B. What should i do?
whether Oracle has any capability of automatically checking which lossless compression algorithm it should apply by analyzing a data stream on data load? Does Oracle have any compression advisors/wizards that would make recommendations as to type and level of compression?
I'm try to import a table of data (character set: CL8ISO8859P5) to another database (character set: AL32UTF8) using exp/imp utility.After the import, all Cyrillic text was corrupted!
we have 25 GB free space in Index tablespace, to avoid space issue i have added 10GB of space. Next shift DBA, rebuild INDEX of the from INDEX tablespace. Now i can check, only 27GB free space in INDEX tablespace...
SQL> Create Table tb_compress_test 2 As 3 Select * From dba_objects;

What exactly mean density of the index in db meanings ? I mean when you configure rebuilt of the index and how do you determine the value of density? for e.g when I have density 40 what does it mean ? next question : how shall I determine which tables are included in index ?
i am continuously inserting data to oracle database after some time like 2 hours oracle disconnects,it creates erros like
ERROR: ORA-01034: ORACLE not available ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist Process ID: 0 Session ID: 0 Serial number: 0
after restarting the database with shutdown immediate ans startup if i start inserting records it will show erros like
ORA-01653: unable to extend table SYSTEM.GLT_PROT_TRAFFIC_SUM_VOIP by 8192 in tablespace GLCOMM
but i have created the Tablespace with BigFile Auto Extend and max size unlimited, i am having 400GB disk space created Redo logs with 15gb,i have tried serveral times reinstalling the oracle but problem is not solved.
same problem is happenging with small datafiles also,
operating system: windows server 2008 R2 standard oracle server : 11g oracle client : 64 bit
On a SAP system, am trying to drop six indexes, largest is 300MB and smallest is 50MB.
I tried running drop index sapusername.index_name on the 50MB index via SQL*Plus and it seems to be taking forever. anything I can check on the database on why it is taking such a long time?
I can leave it to run overnight but worried that when I come back the next day, it will still be hanged. Is there any quick way of dropping the index, .i.e. drop immediate ...
Am not using SAP's BRTOOLs as it is also hanging from there and the SAP-ADMIN had approved for the DBA to drop it from our end instead.
