How to recover or recreate temporary tablespace in 10g

In database you may discover that your temporary tablespace is deleted from OS or it might got corrupted. In order to get it back you might think about recover it. The recovery process is simply recover the temporary file from backup and roll the file forward using archived log files if you are in archivelog mode.

Another solution is simply drop the temporary tablespace and then create a new one and assign new one to the database users.

In order to do that follow the steps here.
1)Find out the temporary datafiles.

SQL> col file_name format a50
SQL> set linesize 200
SQL> select file_name,file_id, tablespace_name from dba_temp_files;
FILE_NAME                                             FILE_ID TABLESPACE_NAME
-------------------------------------------------- ---------- ------------------------------
/oradata2/temp2.dbf                                         1 TEMP2
/oradata2/temp.dbf                                          2 TEMP
/oradata2/temp3.dbf                                         4 TEMP3

2)Make the affected temporary files offline.
SQL> Alter database tempfile 1,2,4 offline;
Database altered.

3)Create a new temporary tablespace and make it database default tablespace.
SQL> create temporary tablespace temp01 tempfile '/oradata2/temp.dbf' size 10M;
Tablespace created.

SQL> alter database default temporary tablespace temp01;
Database altered.

3)Check for users who are not pointed to this default temporary tablespaces. Make this default for those users also.

SQL> select temporary_tablespace , username from dba_users where temporary_tablespace<>'TEMP01';

TEMPORARY_TABLESPACE           USERNAME
------------------------------ ------------------------------
TEMP                           TEST2
TEMP2                          SHAIK

4)Explicitly assign temporary tablespace for users TEST2 and SHAIK
SQL> alter user shaik temporary tablespace temp01;
User altered.

SQL> alter user test2 temporary tablespace temp01;
User altered.

3)Drop the old temporary tablespace.

SQL> drop tablespace temp;
Tablespace dropped.

SQL> drop tablespace temp2;
Tablespace dropped.

SQL> drop tablespace temp3;
Tablespace dropped.

ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected

Problem Symptom While performing a simple select statement it fails with error ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected like below. SQL> select 48*1024*1024*1024 decimal from dual; select 48*1024*1024*1024 decimal from dual * ERROR at line 1: ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected Cause of the problem The ORA-00923 can be caused by two different reasons. 1)Oracle itself expect FROM keyword in the position but it could not find any. Like below, SQL> select 48*1024 om dual; select 48*1024 om dual * ERROR at line 1: ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected As no from keyword found so error arises. Oracle expected from in place of keyword dual. 2)The secong cause can sometimes mislead you. Like in case of SQL> select 48*1024*1024*1024 decimal from dual; select 48*1024*1024*1024 decimal from dual * ERROR at line 1: ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where exp

How to make partitioning in Oracle more Quickly

As the table size grows and full table scans happens more frequently then there is no alternative than partitioning in oracle. Partition greatly enhance performance of a query. I will start my partitioning system simply with an example. In my database the following query took 30~35 seconds to complete. After partitioning the performance increased amazingly and it then took only 1 second. My query was, SELECT DISTINCT fs.type, fs.id , fs.pid, fs.cid , fs.cr_id, fs.created_date FROM summary fs where fs.id in (select fa.id from forms fa where fa.sar in (select la.sar from login la where la.login_id=1 and fa.created_date BETWEEN to_date('1-MAY-2008') AND to_date('21-SEP-2008') and fs.created_date BETWEEN to_date('1-MAY-2008') AND to_date('21-SEP-2008') ) )and mode=0; After seeing above query I decide to make range partition on column created_date both in summary table and forms table. Below is the list of procedur

Copy files between Unix and Windows with rcp

There are many third party tools by which you can copy files between windows and unix machine. Some common tools are winscp, SSHSecureShellClient etc. Instead of using any third party tool, you can use original unix and windows built-in tool to do the task. The RCP (Remote CoPy) is a standard UNIX tool and a Microsoft Windows 2000 tool that copies files/folder to and from computer running the RCP service. Before you can use the RCP tool from a Windows-based computer you must do something in your UNIX computer. you must turn on the RCP service and update the security files to allow the Windows-based computer to connect to your unix machine over this service. The following steps will help you. Step 01: Turn on RCP service on UNIX Host Turn on the RCP service on unix machine by using inetd: 1. Log on as root. 2. Edit the file /etc/Inetd.conf. 3. Uncomment the lines that start with shell and that start with exec. 4. Save the file. 5. Use ps -ef |grep inetd and determine inetd service p
