• creation of database using the SQL command * more

  Hello
  
  This isn't a matter of urgency.
  
  I learn the Oracle DBA. I have installed Oracle 9.2 in my windows system. And I'm trying to create a database using the SQL command.
  
  OracleVersion: 9.2
  Windows XP operating system
  
  

  CREATE DATABASE suri
  USER SYS identified by manager
  USER system identified by surendra

  I get the error like below when executing the CREATE DATABASE command.
  
  

  ERROR at line 16:
  ORA-25139: invalid option for CREATE TEMPORARY TABLESPACE

  I have validated the syntax but not able to find where is the error.
  
  Please let me know if you need more details.
  
  Thanks in advance for your help.
  
  
  Kind regards
  Suri

  OracleVersion: 9.2

  Why a so old version (and desupported)? In any case...

  TEMPORARY TABLESPACE tempts1 DATAFILE 'F:\Oracle\oradata\suri\temp01.dbf' SIZE 100 M EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL default

  .. try change DATAFILE with TEMPFILE.

  is there a difference between these two executions.

  a few commands that you cannot run RMAN directly, so it has to use SQL to run these commands.

  Because EXECUTE is a SQL * more control, you cannot run a PL/SQL command by specifying EXECUTE within the RMAN SQL command. Instead, you must use the keywords BEGIN and END. For example, to run a procedure from PL/SQL named rman.rman_purge through the RMAN SQL command

• Flashback database syntax question

  EE Oracle 10.2.0.4 on OEL 5
  
  This should be a matter of syntax simple, right?
  
  Practice some scenarios to return back and looking at the syntax to
  http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/backup.102/b14194/rcmsynta032.htm#sthref515

  RMAN> FLASHBACK DATABASE TO TIMESTAMP
     TO_TIMESTAMP('2002-03-11 16:00:00', 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS');

  but the real syntax diagram does not show an option "TIMESTAMP", just "on TIME" and "AHEAD of TIME".
  
  Based on, let's try a simple test
  

  RMAN> flashback database to time = '18-MAY-2010 12:50:00';

  and

• Can feature FLASHBACK DATABASE undo the loss of control of file/ORL?

  DB version: 11.2.0.4

  Platform: Oracle Linux 6.4

  I personally have not tested the FLASHBACK DATABASE feature. I came across examples of logical errors such as truncate Table being overturned on FLASHBACK DATABASE.

  I guess that FLASHBACK DATABASE feature may undo the loss of the data files. But will be a loss of control or the Group of newspapers online file again defeated using FLASHBACK DATABASE?

  Hello

  "I guess that feature FLASHBACK DATABASE can cancel the data files loss." Do not assume, check it out

  Flashback database cannot cancel the loss of data files, control files and redo log files.

  Flashback Database limitations

  Because Flashback Database works by undoing changes to data files that exist at the present time when you run the command, it has the following limitations:

  • Flashback Database can only undo changes in an Oracle database data file. It cannot be used to fix the failings of the media, or recover the accidental deletion of data files.
  • You cannot use Flashback Database to cancel a file of data reduction operation. However, you can disconnect the wizened file, flash back, the rest of the database, and then later restore and restore the shriveled data file.
  • You cannot use Flashback Database only to retrieve a data file. If you Flash back, a database at a time when a data file exist in the database, that the entry of data file is added to the control file. You can only recover the database using RMAN to fully restore and recover the data file.
  • If the database control file is restored from backup or re-created, all the accumulated flashback journal information is ignored. You cannot use FLASHBACK DATABASE to get back to a point in time before the restoration or re-creation of a control file.
  • When you use Flashback Database with a time of target during a NOLOGGING operation was underway, corruption block is likely in database objects and files of data that is affected by the NOLOGGING operation. For example, if you perform a direct path INSERT operation in NOLOGGING mode and it runs from 09:00 to 09:15 April 3, 2005, and then use you Flashback Database to return to the target time 09:07 on this date, the objects and data files updated by the direct path INSERT have finished block operation Flashback Database corruption. If possible, avoid using Flashback Database with a time or SCN coinciding with a NOLOGGING operation. Also, perform a full or incremental backup of the immediately affected data files backup after each NOLOGGING operation to ensure recovery of points in time after the operation. If you plan to use Flashback Database to return to a point in time in the course of an operation, for example a direct path INSERT , consider performing the operation in LOGGING mode.

  1. Thank you.

  you experience serious problem... because usually it works very well.

  Try the following:

  SQL > shutdown immediate;

  SQL > bootable media.

  SQL > alter flashback database;

  SQL > alter database backup controlfile to trace noresetlogs;

  SQL > shutdown immediate;

  go to the trace file generated from running (alter database backup controlfile to trace noresetlogs ;)

  location of the trace file is located in the query:

  SQL > select * from v$ diag_info;

  It will contain the script with the SQL commands, you can rename the file with the extension ".sql".

  SQL > startup nomount

  SQL > @trace_file. SQL

  SQL > restore database;

  SQL > alter database open;

  So basically you are going to recreate the files of control again...

• ORA-38754: FLASHBACK DATABASE not started; required redo log is not available

  Hello

  I am getting below error when executing the activities of flashback. Currently we have backups, so when I tried the command flashback in RMAN my question solved.

  But if I want to do the same thing using SQLPLUS what steps should I take?

  ERROR:

  RMAN will automatically restore logs archived redo required for the operation of blowback when they are not present on the drive, while (as meyssoun said) when using sqlplus required archived redo logs must be available on the disc.

• Unable to do the flashback database!

  Hi all

  I activated the flashback database and created a restore point with database of flashback guaranteed so that I can do a flashback database. When I do a flashback database, its says he needs the archivelogs to perform a recovery. Flashback log usually can all have a change given in flashback logs to use for flashbacking a database. Why apply archivelogs when all the changed data does not appear in flashback log itself? please tell me.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Database of flashback need newspapers archives files.

  "Flashback Database is similar to traditional point-in-time recovery in its effects. To restore a database to the State at a time in the recent past. Flashback Database is much faster than the point-in-time recovery, because it doesn't require you to restore the backup data files and requires fewer changes of the archived redo logs. »

  "No file in the fast recovery area is eligible for deletion if this is required to meet a guaranteed restore point. However, archived redo logs required to meet a guaranteed restore point can be deleted after that only they are saved on disk or on tape. When you use the RMAN FLASHBACK DATABASE command, if the archived redo must convince guaranteed a restore point are not available in the area of fast recovery, then they are restored from backups of logs. »

• Duplicate database RMAN 11 GR 2 ORA-17627 ORA-01017 RMAN-03009 ORA-17628

  Hello
  
  I'm getting ORA-17627: ORA-01017: name of user and password invalid. connection refused when using the RMAN duplicate on the same host using the account Oracle DBA. The system is Linux Oracle and Oracle 11.2.0.1 5.5

  Details below:
  
  Thank you.
  
  
  H3. Summary of the solution:
  
  A big thank you to all who responded! The problem is solved finally :-)
  
  The ORA-17627: ORA-01017 has been corrected using the connection string to connect to the target database, instead of target rman / in the command prompt
  

  $ rman

  RMAN> duplicate target database to clonedb from active database;

  However, there was still another question:

  The alert.log to the auxiliary database (clonedb) shows:

  I fixed the problem by changing the following text in the settings of the clonedb instance file:

  * .log_file_name_convert =('+Data/ORCL/onlinelog/','/Scratch/oradata/clonedb/logfile/')

  Hi guy,
  Please configure the tnsnames and auditor of the target and auxiliary.
  That set the script to use OIC to connect in both instances like this:

  connect target sys/test@orcl
  connect auxiliary sys/test@clonedb

  Please after the release.
  Kind regards

• RMAN vs SQL

  Hello
  
  Recently, I noticed when I pulled the immediate stop of RMAN , it was much faster then the execution even S * QL invite *, is there is no logic behind that?
  
  Piyush

  Hello

  There is no difference in the speed of the SQL command RMAN.

  The only thing that matters is the amount of work that needs to be cancelled. When there is a lot of work to reduce the immediate closure takes more time.

• Maximum length of the SQL command

  I created a MySQL database and a LabView 8.6 application that inserts data into the database using the SQL Toolbox.  I have a problem very long character data insertion in a LONGTEXT field.  I determined that the problem occurs when the SQL command is more than 1 048 574 characters or the length of a particular field exceeds 1 048 326 characters (cannot say who).

  The error I get is "error-2147467259 occurred at NI_Database_API.lvlib:Conn Execute.vi.  "Exception occurred in the Microsoft OLE DB provider for ODBC drivers: [MySQL] [ODBC 5.1 Driver] [mysqld - 5.1.35 - community] MySQL version disappeared in NI_Database_API.lvlib:Conn Execute.vi.

  According to the MYSQL documentation, a LONGTEXT can 4294967295 characters, so length shouldn't be a problem.  The documentation also indicates "the effective maximum length of LONGTEXT columns also depends on the maximum packet size that is configured in the client/server protocol and available memory", but I don't know how to configure the packet size in LabView.

  I enclose the code example that reproduces the problem, although it is based on a special run table structure effectively.  The table definition is included on the diagram.

  This setting must be configured outside of LabVIEW (UDL or DSN).

  You must configure the server and the client:

  I found this link while searching on stackoverflow

  http://dev.MySQL.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/packet-too-large.html

  You may need to select/Configure a specific vendor (different) in order to set this variable.

• Files without a NAME during the Flashback Database

  Hi all

  Why, in flashback, database, retrieve a tablespace has dropped the datafile (s) consisting of within table get renamed to UNNAMEDnnn? I was going through some examples on the internet but did not find any concrete reason as to why this happens during the flashback recovery. If the tablespace can be recreated during the process, why not data files that compose?

  Could someone help me please in my understanding.

  Thank you.

  ERROR on line 1:

  "

  Why, in flashback, database, the data file associated with the storage space gets renamed to unnamed?

  Thanks for the link and new info.

  The reason is the same as in these quotes from doc that I have provided. As ORA-01111 indicates the name of the actual file is unknown so Oracle creates a unique name, then stops recovery so that you can provide the name and location.

  Why, during the flashback database, retrieve a tablespace has fallen...

  This formulation and the wording of the article, is probably what is mislead you. You cannot recover a tablespace using FLASHBACK DATABASE:

  Here is the doc for FLASHBACK DATABASE

  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/backup.111/b28273/rcmsynta023.htm

  Notes A Flashback Database use operation applies to the entire base. You cannot flash back, individual storage spaces. A Flashback Database operation is similar to a point-in-time data recovery (DBPITR) with RECOVER , but RMAN uses flashback logs to undo changes to a point before the time runs out or SNA

  See that second sentence? You NEED to recover the entire database and, as this quote from doc says, made it like CAMILLE by RECOVER.

  In this example, the storage space AND data files were dropped. So please check the doc to DROP TABLESPACE

  https://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/statements_9004.htm

  Oracle database deletes all metadata about the space of storage data files and all the data dictionary tempfiles in the tablespace. The database also automatically removes the operating system all data files managed by Oracle and tempfiles in the tablespace. Other data files and tempfiles are not removed from the operating system unless you specify INCLUDING CONTENTS AND DATAFILES .

  See? No additional data in the dictionary for the tablespace or data files. Real datafiles is more if they were managed by Oracle. But there MAY be data files of the operating system if you do NOT use this last clause.

  If Oracle recreates the files using unique names and then allows you to CONFIRM that the name and location should really be.

  You have a problem with that? Or just try to understand?

• LOV query fails, but works in SQL commands

  I am trying to create a type with semi-automatic item text field, but the query I fill in the definition of LOV returns an error:

  Impossible to analyze the query SQL LOV!

  ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

  Although when I try the same query in the form of SQL commands, it works without any problem. No idea what I am doing wrong?

  The query is as follows, where v_prt_gem_t is a view and prt_gem is a table.

  SELECT
        PG.POST_CODE||' '||PT.NAAM
  FROM
        V_PRT_GEM_T PT

  It is likely that CERTAIN privileges on one or two tables/views used are granted for the scheme of the analysis of the application through a role, not directly to the schema. Role-based privileges will be observed in the workshop of SQL in the latest versions of database, but not for running applications. See (YABAOAE) yet another Blog about Oracle Application Express: Application Express and SQL Analysis for detailed information.

  That's why you always have to give the full APEX and the database version numbers when you ask a question: implementations and features change over time. If we know exactly which versions are used so we can determine what behavior is expected, and what bugs exist or have been corrected...
