Cannot allocate New Log Error and transactions

Oracle 9.2.0.4

The user runs a report that executes PL/SQL. A SELECT dynamiic statement is generated and executed. This particular request is long term and ends when an error message "Unable to allocate new logs" appears in the database alert log file. The report shows no selected data. No Oracle error have been raised/caught in the trap during the course of the PL/SQL report. Immediately, the user runs the same exact report again and gets the selected data.

My questions:

Can the occurrence of an "Unable to allocate new logs" entry to the database alert file cause queries to long term to retrieve any data?
Can there be a setting in the database triggers an error ORA - so that the report could identify when this happens?

I know that the DBA should treat the cause. I just want to know what the report of PL/SQL can do to intercept it when it arrives.

Thank you

Can the occurrence of an "Unable to allocate new logs" entry to the database alert file cause queries to long term to retrieve any data?

Unless there is a software bug, 'impossible to allocate new log' can freeze the instance of database for a while, but that's all.

Can there be a setting in the database triggers an error ORA - so that the report could identify when this happens?

As far as I know, no.

9.2.0.4 is an Oracle either fully supported version. You must spend at least 10g.

    This message indicates that Oracle wants to re-use a redo log file, but the current position of the control point is always in this newspaper. In this case, Oracle must wait until the position of the control point passes this newspaper. Because the objective of additional control point never accused tail current log more than 90% of the smallest size of log file, this situation might be met if DBWR writing too slowly, or if a log switch occurs before the log is completely filled,
    or if the size of the log files is too small. When the database is waiting on the checkpoints, redo generation is stopped until the journal is made.

    Should I just change
    db_writer_processes 1
    dbwr_io_slaves 2

    Thank you
    Any help appreciated.

    This message indicates that Oracle wants to re-use a redo log file, but
    the
    associated with corresponding control point is not over. In this case,.
    Oracle
    Wait for the control point is carried out entirely. This situation
    may be encountered especially when transactional activity is
    important.

    search for:
    -Background checkpoint started.
    -Control your mat point.

    These two statistics should not differ more than once. If it is

    not true, your base weighs on the control points. LGWR does not reach
    continue
    next write operations that ends the control points.

    Three reasons may explain this difference:

    -A frequency of control points which is too high.
    -A control points are starting but not filling not
    -One DBWR writing too slowly.

    How to resolve incomplete control points is through tuning
    control points and
    newspapers:

    (1) gives the checkpoint process more time to scroll through newspapers
    -Add more redo log groups
    -increase the size of the logs again
    (2) to reduce the frequency of control points
    -increase the LOG_CHECKPOINT_INTERVAL
    -increase the size of newspapers in restoration online
    (3) improve the effectiveness of the control points for the CKPT process
    CHECKPOINT_PROCESS = TRUE
    (4) set LOG_CHECKPOINT_TIMEOUT = 0. This disables the verification script
    based on
    time interval.
    (5) another way to solve this error is for DBWR to write quickly
    the dirty
    buffers to disk. The parameter associated with this task is:

    DB_BLOCK_CHECKPOINT_BATCH.

    DB_BLOCK_CHECKPOINT_BATCH specifies the number of blocks that are
    dedicated
    inside the batch size for writing the control points. When you want to
    speed up
    control points, it is necessary to increase this value.

  • Checking the logs, error, transactional logs logs

    Hello-

    I was wondering if Eloqua has Audit logs, logs errors or transactional to show newspapers if information is captured by Eloqua, or if an error occurs somewhere behind the scenes.

    Going through the manual, I am only to find references in the log files as part of the add-on of HIPAA.

    Are there logs without the Add on HIPAA and they easily accessible?

    Thank you

    Doug

    Hi Doug -.

    There are a few different types of newspapers, that you can find in Eloqua:

    To access each, you will need the correct credentials (usually the customer administrator) and will find them inside the Configuration tab:

    1. connection of the user history.

    This is located under the users

    And the tab inside users dashboards

    The dashboard looks like this, you can access the raw data in the button of "additional reports:

    This is a very old style scoreboard E9 and cannot be found inside the preview.

    2. errors and history of CRM integration

    It is located in the database of the administrative menu section, and more particularly in the integration:

    Your integration to different RCMS that SFDC and can display different names as the picture below, but the statement is located at a few places here:

    If you point to each of the following areas (waiting for update, update complete, updated failed, with success of the imported records) you will get the menus that look like the image below and you can click on them to view a specific report on integration:

    There is also a button seen above you can click to review additional reports:

    Similar to the dashboard above, these are not available in Insight.

    3. download history

    Within the area of integration (as shown above) you can access the data on downloads and file transfers, click "Incoming" - it will open something that looks like the image below and in the reports tab, you can find additional reports on data in the system.

  • db_load error: cannot allocate memory

    Hello

    When I try to import a dump file, I always get this error:


    db_load: BDB2055 lock table is out of available lock entries

    db_load: cannot allocate memory

    I performed "db_load f outdb/outdb2 - h env xass.db".


    and I put max locks:

    dbenv-> set_lk_max_locks (dbenv, 1000);

    but it does not work.


    What should I do to avoid this problem?

    Thank you for your help in advance



    Mark



    Update:


    I did some tests, and I found that if I increase the number of locks by 'set_lk_max_locks' in the DB_CONFIG file, db_load operation will be a success.

    The point is that the larger db file may need a very high value of locks, then why "db_load" does not release the locks during the ongoing procedure? Is this a bug for the bdb?

    because I can not increase the infinite number of locks!

    If this is not the case, How can I cause "db_load" release of transaction locks?

    Is someone can help me?

    Mark

    Hi Mark,

    If you import a dump file into an existing, open environment with flags of (can be several) DB_INIT_LOCK | DB_INIT_LOG | DB_INIT_MPOOL | DB_INIT_TXN, then it is true, you may encounter the error on "lock table is out of available lock entries" when the dump file is very large. Db_load process will not release the locks because he have to provent other processes to access the database under construction to ensure the consistency of the data in the transactional environment.

    The general average to load a database from a dump file is to specify an empty directory as the base directory. Hereby, the database will be created in a private non transactional environment, and you can copy the database in your environment running once completed the process of db_load.

    Kind regards

    Winter, Oracle Berkeley DB.
