Alter Session In ORACLE:
========================
To change the system message to english.
alter session set NLS_LANGUAGE='ENGLISH';
The syntax for creating a primary key in an ALTER TABLE statement is:
ALTER TABLE table_name
add CONSTRAINT constraint_name PRIMARY KEY (column1, column2, ... column_n)
ALTER TABLE table_name drop CONSTRAINT constraint_name;
convert function (to_date):
=================
to_date('20120318' || ' 00:00:00', 'YYYYMMDD hh24:mi:ss' )
output:
18-03-2012 0:00:00

Eliminating duplicate records from a table in ORACLE
=======================================
Q:
create table <new table> as
select * FROM <table with duplicates> WHERE ROWID IN(SELECT MAX(ROWID) FROM <t
able with duplicates> GROUP BY <unique col>);
Selecting among 1 among the two records that have different values for a field
========================================================
Q:
SELECT A.* INTO #DIST_F_ACT
FROM #DIST_F_ACTIVITY_SK A
where A.LAST_UPD =
(
SELECT MAX(B.LAST_UPD)
FROM
#DIST_F_ACTIVITY_SK B
WHERE B.EVT_ACT_ROW_ID = A.EVT
_ACT_ROW_ID)
eg:
EVT_ACT_ROW_ID
1
1
2

LAST_UPD
20090704
20090709
20090704

Note: Here , when EVT_ACT_ROW_ID=1 then ,record having LAST_UPD = 20090709 will
be choosen.
--Portugese character problem
================================================================================
=============
If you create a table without the alter session. The default will be 'BYTE'
CREATE TABLE CDM.TEST_SEMANTICS (
RCHAR
VARCHAR2(15) NULL
)
GO
insert into CDM.TEST_SEMANTICS(RCHAR) values ('co')
This one will be ok because there are some spare space.
insert into CDM.TEST_SEMANTICS(RCHAR) values ('cooooooooooooo')
This one not because we are trying to insert the max number of chars for that fi
eld and the will consume a extra char.
This happens because to store the character it is required 2 bytes.
By doing the alter session with the option

alter session set nls_length_semantics='CHAR';

The char is enough to store the character.
CREATE TABLE CDM.TEST_SEMANTICS_CHAR (
RCHAR
VARCHAR2(15) NULL
)
GO
insert into CDM.TEST_SEMANTICS_CHAR(RCHAR) values ('cooooooooooooo')

select * from CDM.TEST_SEMANTICS_CHAR

SPOOLING:
=========
set colsep X

set pagesize 0
set trimspool on
set headsep off

set linesize X

-- separate columns with any delimeter were X is

-- only one header row
-- remove trailing blanks
-- this may or may not be useful...depends on yo
-- X should be the sum of the column widths

--create the file were u want , put the path accordingly.

spool Z:\8-Remedy\INC000005159017-F_CLIENT_OPPORTUNITY\test.csv
select distinct ROW_ID from CDC_TMP_S_OPTY; --output gets copied to the file in

UNIX:
******
TO Prevent Hang up:
===============
nohup run_2_L2SP_PAR.ksh >> $log
TO Access Database Through UNIX Server:
===============================
isql -Ujobs_diarios -S `DSS1`
$PASSWORD
use IWS_DATA_STAGING
go
List by sorting and Tailing
==================
ls -lrt <part or full name>* | tail -25
How to pass in a environment variable to isql session in the ksh.

=============================================
First set the variable:
export RAY_JARVIS="SybaseEmployee"
Next call isql with the standard parameters:
isql -Uuser -Ppassword -Sservername <<++
-- issue the select command with external variables in where clause
select * from sybase where employee = "$RAY_JARVIS"
go
++
And thats all you need to do.

Otherwise, use ALTER DATABASE or
sp_extendsegment to increase size of the segment.

===========================
MDA tables capture information each time a store procedure is run. So if you wri
te a job to poll into a reposiory table monSysStatement where ProcedureID != 0 a
nd object_name(ProcedureID,dbid) with a getdate() appended at the end should do
the trick
TO check which Table a PROXY is pointing to
=================================
select object_type, object_cinfo, char_value
from

object_cinfo = 'ORC_IWS_RECONCILIATION_TABLE'
To insert into sysservers
=========================
insert into sysservers (srvid,srvname,srvclass,srvinfo,srvreadonly)
values ( 1,'DSS2','asejdbc','vfptdwhdev02:4025/ARBOR','N' )
--go to iws_iq sysservers once and check fo ryour server.
TO AVOID DISCONNECT SITUATIONS WHERE PROCEDURE IS UNAWARE
=========================================================
select @SERVER_STATUS = -1
select @SERVER_STATUS = UP
from IQ_PROXY..SERVER_UP
if ( @SERVER_STATUS <> 1956 )
begin
print "ERROR : NO REPLY FROM IWS_IQ...."
return -2

Eliminating duplicate records from a table
=============================
********************************************************************************
********************************************************************************
**************************************
There are a number of different ways to achieve this, depending on what you are
trying to achieve. Usually, you are trying to remove duplication of a certain
key due to changes in business rules or recognition of a business rule that was
t applied when the database was originally built.
Probably the quickest method is to build a copy of the original table:
select
into
from
where

*
temp_table
base_table
1=0

Create a unique index on the columns that covers the duplicating rows with the
ignore_dup_key attribute. This may be more columns that the key for the table.
create unique index temp_idx
on temp_table(col1, col2, ..., colN)
with ignore_dup_key
Now, insert base_table into temp_table.
insert temp_table
select * from base_table
You probably want to ensure you have a very good backup of the base_table at
this point, coz your going to clear it out! You will also want to check to
ensure that the temp_table includes the rows you need. You also need to ensure
that there are no triggers on the base table (remember to keep a copy!) or RI
constraints. You probably do not want any of these to fire, or if they do, you
are aware of the implications.

Using constraints and alter table

If the index on the table was created using a constraint, follow these steps to
re-create a clustered index:
Drop the constraint:
---------------------------alter table <huge_tab> drop constraint prim_key
Re-create the constraint, thereby re-creating the index:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------alter table <huge_tab> add constraint prim_key

================================================================================
===============================================
solution for Cross Server Insert Location problem:
==================================================
When this problem (unable to do "insert into location" inside a prd
owned stored procedure run with another user) arises after a server
restart, you need to do the following:
1) login as prd / Dev@2006
2) create table #a (a int)
3) insert into #a location 'DSS2.IWS' {select 1}
4) logout
This should have been done by the DBAs, so you can always remind them in
the INC itself.
But in case they don't do it, that's the solution.

Syncing data of a TABLE from IT's ONLINE REPLICA to IT's IQ REPLICA
===================================================================
--Search for procs with names like dbo.SYNC_IQ_CDC_D_SERVICE
--They basically Use Insert into location command.
So the insert into location can be directly used ti synce ,Only diffference is w
hen pulling data from ONLINE these SPs
use a time stamp so, gotta watch out for that and understand why that is being u
sed.
Eg: PT-017012 -u used it in DEV to sync D_SERVICE

How to drop a session in IQ/KILL a session In IQ
================================================
sp_iqconnection and find out ConnHandle(a number)
After that execute
drop connection <ConnHandle>
Transaction Log:
================================================================
You can clear the transaction log by using the following command
Dump tran < db_name > to < file_name >
OR
Dump tran < db_name > with truncate_only
OR
Dump tran < db_name > with no_log
Please read the sybase documents for more details.
Note : Dump tran will not work, if your database option is set
to "truncate log on checkpoint".
if still log is not cleared then, either you can kill the process
or can abort the transaction log by using lct_admin command.
If you want to increase the size of the transaction log of a database, you can
increase it by using:

alter database < db_name > log on < logical_device_name > = '100M'
==================================================================
To list all running processes in windows:
>tasklist.exe
To kill any hanged process in windows:
>TASKKILL /F /IM notepad++.exe
--/F for forced
--/IM is image name , Eg- u can give note* to match all the program beginning wi
th that name.
