Server Administration :: How To Compare DB Parameters
Mar 19, 2013
I recently discovered that there was a difference in my QA and prod environments, which I have since rectified.
SQL> select DBMS_STATS.GET_PARAM('METHOD_OPT') from dual;
DBMS_STATS.GET_PARAM('METHOD_OPT')
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOR ALL COLUMNS SIZE 1
SQL> select DBMS_STATS.GET_PARAM('METHOD_OPT') from dual;
DBMS_STATS.GET_PARAM('METHOD_OPT')
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOR ALL COLUMNS SIZE AUTO
I found a script that allows me to compare values from v$parameter
set pagesize 1000
col name format a28
col local format a20
col remote format a20
select local.name, local.value local,
remote.value remote,
[code]....
Is there other SQL code or another methode out there that would find differences in my DB's such as the method_opt setting, which don't appear in v$parameter.
I want to compare two users on different databases, actaully there are two users one in user a on database a and another user b on database b they have same tables, and everytime when a table or object is created on user a (database a) i will take the table name ,procedure or any other object from user_objects based on ddl_created date and then i need to recreate the same on user b on database b, is there a way to find out tables which are not only created but also i need to check whether if there is any column added or any change in procedure or any other objects.Is there a way to generate the scripts based on list of objects selected from user_objects. all i want is.
a)Find out the list of objects added along with creation scripts b)find out the list of objects modified along with creation scripts.
I can not change the parameters RESOURCE_MANAGER_PLAN, at first, I set the parameters to DAYTIME,but when I restart my db,the parameters hold old values named MAXCAP_PLAN. Why?
SQL> select * from v$version; BANNER -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production CORE 11.2.0.1.0 Production TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
I searched and found that it has something to do with the SGA parameters. I saw that the shared_pool_size and the sga_target paramters are set to 0...Also there are certain SQLs hanging at some point. I thought I should change the above mentioned parameters.
My question now is, can I use the Alter System statements from the SQL Plus to change these parameters, and do they change immediately or do I need to reboot the Oracle instance for those changes to take effect? I would like to do:
alter system set sga_target=400m; alter system set shared_pool_size=200m;
I can detect the CURRENT_SCHEMA with a query against the user env context, but I can't find any of the others there. Could there be an issue with these values being stored in PGA, and therefore not visible though any regular views? I did find an article that showed a query against an x$ data structure which showed something for different settings of CONSTRAINTS, but I can't find it again.
I want the DB to startup with SPFILE at next login.So i fired the below command.
CREATE SPFILE='path/SPFILEPRAGAT.ORA' FROM PFILE='path/file.ora'.
But it shows the error as below:
ORA-01078: failure in processing system parameters ORA-27040: file create error, unable to create file OSD-04002: unable to open file O/S-Error: (os 123) The filename, directory name,or volume label syntax is incorrect.
working on setting up connection between a Windows 2008 server and a pair of Oracle 11g DBs in a RAC Cluster. One Database (let's say DatabaseA) is in one data center, and the other (DatabaseB) is an a secondary, backup database. The RAC Cluster is all set up, working fine, etc. However, I Need to set up the machine.config file on my Windows Server, to go only connect to DatabaseA, unless it fails, in which case, we want it to connect to DatabaseB. Think we could do this if the host app server was Linux/Unix, but it is windows, and I just don't have the background as to the parameters to set up in the machine.config file. They are similar, but different, and we want a very specific behavior (use DatabaseA, unless fails, then DatabaseB). Application is .NET 4.0 app.
How (or having a script) to get, in PL/SQL, the parameters that have been given on a Data Pump command (export or import): mode (easy), tables/schemas list, exclude/include values and so on?

I have a standard schema named ABC and 600 more schema's over there in my database.They all has same table name and column name as on standard schema. But in some tables number of columns varying. So I need to compare all schemas with my standard schemas column name. I create below script but it is generating output in infinite loop.

i am trying to install Oracle 10.10.2.0 on Windows Server 2003 standard x64 Edition Service Pack, but when i try to run the installer or open DVD it gives me below error.
"The image file D: is Valid, but is for a machine type other than the current machine."
I was trying to delete the database in the test server. When i was deleting listener was already stopped, i continued deleting using dbca, it shown me some alert that datafiles cant be deleted because system could't find database, since listner was stopped so only service was deleted(the one showing in the windows administrator toolsservicesOracleServiceTEST).
All the datafile parameter files are still there. How can i delete the datafiles and parameter files belongs to that database or how to create the deleted service, so that i will start the listener and do the complete deleting of the database.

I am trying to find the unix process for one of my application in the database but I am unable to view the same. To simulate, I did the following.
1. My database runs on different server. 2. I invoked "sqlplus" from another unix box to login to the database. 3. I found that the process id (ps -ef |grep sqlplus). 4. When I execute the below mentioned query it does not display the process id that I am looking for. But the osuser, username, program and machine details are correct. How can I know the process details from the database?
SELECT SYS.GV_$SESSION.OSUSER, SYS.GV_$SESSION.USERNAME, SYS.GV_$PROCESS.SPID, SYS.GV_$SESSION.MACHINE, SYS.GV_$SESSION.PROGRAM, SYS.GV_$PROCESS.PROGRAM ,SYS.GV_$SESSION.SQL_ID FROM SYS.GV_$PROCESS, SYS.GV_$SESSION WHERE SYS.GV_$PROCESS.ADDR=SYS.GV_$SESSION.PADDR and SYS.GV_$SESSION.USERNAME='TEST' and SYS.GV_$SESSION.MACHINE like '%hostname%'
I have database in single server. I already have ORACLE_SID=stagedb. So i want to create new sid and named as proddb.Is it possible have multiple db in single server? This server not running as RAC. It run as single only.
database administration , we are planning to use amazon cloud database , this database does not allow us to login to server machine , unfortunately amazon don't provide ssh to this machine , in general for doing any of adminstration task on the database will there be need to log into the machine ? we can always log in through toad or any other sql client but we cannot do ssh to server..general can this limitation effect administration ?
I want to install Oracle 11g R2 in windows 2008 64 bit server. How can I know whether my server is ready to install Oracle ie is all components are available in server or any patch is to be applied etc.
I'm trying to connect a oracle client application on the client machine to a remote oracle server on the server machine but i get a connection fail.
On the server machine I configured oracle server in the following way:
Installed oracle server. Created a database "DB_Test" with the database configuration assistant Created a LISTNER with the Oracle NET Manager with the following parameter:
Protocol: TCP/IP HOST: server pc hostname (ENZOVAIO) or server machine address ip (192.168.0.71) in the network lan Port Number: 1521 Created "dbtest" service with the Oracle NET Manager with with the following parameter: Service Name: "dbtest" Protocol: TCP/IP HOST: server pc hostname (ENZOVAIO) or server machine address ip (192.168.0.71) in the network lan Port Number: 1521
All services on the server machine are running and I opened port number (1521) in the router. On the client machine I installed SQL PLUS and SQL Developer.
With SQL Plus as by the official documentation I have entered the following command:
CONNECT username/password@[//]host[:port][/service_name]. In my case is: CONNECT SYSTEM/oracledb@//ENZOVAIO:1521/testdb.
With SQL Developer I have entered the same parameter.
But with both SQLPlus and SQL Developer the connection fails.
