Strange Oracle 9i behaviour

Darryn — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 13:43:32 +0000

We are seeing some very strange behaviour in the performance of a query on our database. We have run the same query on the actual database server (s1) using sql+, and on a server (s2) 1 hop away (taking out network performance). The exact same queries, without any bind variables, are kicked off at exactly the same time. The query that is run on the s1 finishes in 30-40 minutes, whilst the query that is run from s2 takes 4 hours to finish. Even when the queries are started at different times during the day, no matter in which order, or only 1 at a time, the s1 query always takes less than an hour, whilst the s2 query always takes close on 4 hours. The explain plans for both sessions show the exact same paths, however, they have different costs (I believe this is due to a logon trigger that is forcing the optimizer_index_cost_adj = 10 when the s2 session is created). The OS user used to log in to s1 does not have any specific resource rights.

It has been noted that there are a lot of waits between reads for client side queries, which don’t seem to be happening on the server side query. The session statistics don’t really tell us much, other than that it is taking a lot longer to run.

Is this behaviour normal for server vs client queries? Does it make a difference that the costs are higher in the explain plan generated, even though the steps are exactly the same? If not, what else can we look at?

Running SQL PLUS on a server

Lynrobbins — Mon, 29 Nov 2010 20:02:05 +0000

Can I use mapped drives and environment variables to run SQLPLUS from a local machine(without any Oracle products) to a server. The mapped server has the Oracle products? Example:

W - map to my Oracle server C drive

EV = w:oracleora92binsqlplusw

cmd : start %EV%

I’m trying to host out of Oracle Forms 6i to run a scrip to create flat files. The server with Forms does not have SQLPLUS installed.

Here is my query:

TourID is a defined attribute in a table called Tour.

I’d be grateful for any help.

Large number rounding in Oracle 10g

Techguys — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 20:27:55 +0000

Oracle 10g database table with a column having data type Number(20) stores 18 digits organization code. When this data is retrieved in SQL*Plus or Toad it is displayed in scientific notation format. The display format can be changed from scientific notation format to number format. But, for some reason the number rounds up. For example if the organization code stored in the database is 541200659999999999 when it is retrieved from database it is found to be 541200660000000000. Is there any one who knows why Oracle does this? Thank you in advance for your help.
