tablespace it fails with error message, ORA-00059

122)  ORA-01667: cannot add any more tablespaces: limit of exceeded. If your database

version is higher than 8 suppose 10.2g then when MAXDATAFILES of your control file

reached then MAXDATAFILES parameter would expand automatically unless you hit

bug. You can see the post here,

New Feature of 10.2g Eliminate Control file Recreation

need to change the limit of MAXLOGFILE, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY,

MAXDATAFILES, and MAXINSTANCES then the possible solutions is either RE-create

new controlfile or create a new database. But from Oracle 10.2g all sections of the

control file are now automatically extended when they run out of space. This means that

there is no longer a requirement to re-create the control file when changes in the

configuration parameter the MAXLOGFILE, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY,

MAXDATAFILES, and MAXINSTANCES are needed

131)  kccrsz: denied expansion of controlfile section 9 by 65535 record(s). The machine did

created two tables table_8k under 8k tablespace tbs_8k and table_16k under 16k

tablespace tbs_16k. The summary of the experiment is bigger data block cause more

time while update but less time while insert operation.

standard that is default blocksize is used which is specified by parameter

DB_BLOCK_SIZE.

flashback version query which are discussed on Flashback Version Query.

236)  ORA-01466: unable to read data - table definition has changed, Whenever you tried to

flashback of a table immediately after creating table and inserting data into it, or you

tried to flashback of the table to a time or to a SCN before creating it then flashback

table or flashback query fails with error message,

your database flashback feature it failed with errors.

240)  How to get back dropped Tablespace using Flashback Database, It needs to

remember that if you drop your tablespace with including datafiles option then it is not

possible to get your tablespace back with flashback database. While dropping if you use

DROP TABLESPACE INCLUDING CONTENTS option then it is possible to get back

tablespace.

241)  How to restore the old data using flashback query, My intention is , I want to get back

past data of database after erroneously updated and committed.

242)  Limitation of Flashback Database, The Flashback Database allows you to get back

the entire database to a specific point-in-time

243)  Flashback Database To The Right of Open Resetlogs, In some cases, you may need

to return the database to a point in time in the parent incarnation, later than the SCN of

the OPEN RESETLOGS at which the current incarnation path branched from the old

incarnation.

244)  Flashback Database to Undo an OPEN RESETLOGS, Suppose you have opened

your database with OPEN RESETLOGS option after performing flashback feature. And

after that you have made unwanted changes in your database.

245)  Performing Flashback Database, Before going any production upgrade to database

we can make a guaranteed restore point to database and if any wrong then we can get

back to the restore point state. Guaranteed restore point always ensure that we can get

back data to our restore point creation time.

246)  ORA-00439: feature not enabled: Flashback Database, While trying to enable

flashback feature the error comes.

247)  Restore Point and Flashback Database. Flashback database enables us to get back

our database to a prior time

operations is needed

249)  Flashback Table and Flashback Drop, The FLASHBACK TABLE statement enables

users to get a table to a previous point in time. It provides a fast, online solution to get

back a table that has been accidentally modified or deleted by a user or application. It

eliminates the DBA to perform more complicated point in time recovery operations.

"NEPTUNE". In the server machine under /oradata2 directory there is a dump file

named net.dmp. However to run import operation we need not connect to server

about what SELinux is. SELinux indicates Security Enhanced Linux which is a security

patch applied to Linux kernel. When it is enabled in the kernel it follows some principle

of least privilege. It is an implementation of mandatory access control using Linux

Security Modules.

313)  TNS-01169: The listener has not recognized the password, The TNS-01169 error

occurred because security feature is enabled for listener i.e password is set in

317)  Listener Hangs, Child listener process remains persistence, Some days ago in our

database server we got a problem regarding listener issue. Our TNS Listener hangs.

Below is the problem symtompts.

318)  ORA-12541: TNS:no listener, For newbie users they found ORA-12541 and search

here and there to solve the problem. But it is one word about the error which it says no

listener and think next what to do. Never mix this error with another error like ORA-

12514: which are different and mutually exclusive.

319)  ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect

descriptor, I will try to show how efficiently we can avoid error ORA-12514. My

suggestion is whenever you get this error forget about tnsnames.ora and other stuff

related to it. Start fixing problem step by step.

320)  How to Enable Listener Logging and Tracing, I will try to show two different ways to

enable logging and tracing of listener.ora file. These logging and tracing helps you to

identify the network problems and troubleshooting connection problems in oracle.It also

help to identify when a client is connected to oracle database.

contents within that datafile will be affected, other datafile is online and can be possible

to query which may return rows with errors. To illustarte this scenario I will make two

datafiles inside a tablespace.

happened. So just before ORA-06512 there will be additional error which we may need

to investigate. If the errors come from any function or package or package body or

occurred.
