Oracle Database
Workshop 1
Presented to IBRI CAS
27-Nov-2011
By Abdullah Alkalbani
Workshop Objectives
• Describe Oracle Database (10g).
• Identify high-level architectural components
of an Oracle Database.
• Identify Oracle Database internal data
structures.
• Define the mechanisms used when
processing Insert/Update/Delete statements.
• Describe DBMS programs used with Oracle
Database.
10g provides better ways to
administer your database. “It
takes the mountain out of the
mole hill”.
• 9i Mountains = More effort and
resources to accomplish similar tasks
in 10g
• 10g Mole Hills = Less effort and
resources to accomplish similar tasks
in 9i.
Popular Features
•Automatic Shared Memory
Management (ASMM)
•Data Pump
•SQL Tuning Advisor
•Flashback Database
•RMAN - Backupset
Compression
Most people call it a “Database”
Technically an Oracle Database is broken
into two high-level components
1. INSTANCE – Non-persistent, memorybased processes and structures
2. DATABASE – Persistent, disk-based data
and control files
So Why Differentiate?
Most Oracle installations consist of only a
single “Instance” and single “Database”…
Instance
Database
Oracle RAC is Different
Oracle “Real Application Clusters” allow
multiple “Instances” to interact with a
single “Database” to provide high
availability…

“Instance” a Little Closer
An Oracle Instance…
– Is a means to access an Oracle Database
– Always opens one and only one Database
– Consists of memory and background process
structures

Memory Structure
Oracle’s memory structure consists of two
memory areas known as:
1. System Global Area (SGA): Allocated at
instance start up, and is a fundamental
component of an Oracle Instance
2. Program Global Area (PGA): Allocated
when the server process is started
System Global Area
• The SGA consists of several memory structures:
–
–
–
–
Shared Pool
Database Buffer Cache
Redo Log Buffer
Other structures
• There are two additional memory structures that
can be configured within the SGA:
– Large Pool
– Java Pool
System Global Area
• The size of the SGA is determined by the
parameters that set the sizes of the
various pools; these parameters are
dynamic
• The SGA_MAX_SIZE parameter sets the
maximum size of the SGA (so you can
limit it) and is not a dynamic parameter

Shared Pool
• Used to store:
– Most recently executed SQL statements
– Most recently used data definitions
• It consists of two key performance-related
memory structures:
– Library Cache
– Data Dictionary Cache
• Sized by the parameter
SHARED_POOL_SIZE
Library Cache
• Stores information about the most recently used
SQL and PL/SQL statements
• Enables the sharing of commonly used
statements
• Is managed by a least recently used (LRU)
algorithm
• Consists of two structures
– Shared SQL area
– Shared PL/SQL area
• Size is determined by the Shared Pool sizing

Data Dictionary Cache
• A collection of the most recently used
definitions in the database
• Includes information about database files,
tables, indexes, columns, users,
privileges, and other database objects
• During the parse phase, the server
process looks at the data dictionary for
information to resolve object names and
validate access
Database Buffer Cache
• Stores copies of data blocks that have
been retrieved from the data files
• Enables great performance gains when
you obtain and update data
• Managed through an LRU algorithm
• DB_BLOCK_SIZE determines primary
block size

Redo Log Buffer
• Records all changes made to the
database data blocks
• Primary purpose is recovery
• Changes recorded within are called redo
entries
• Redo entries contain information to
reconstruct or redo changes
• Size defined by LOG_BUFFER
Large Pool
• An optional area of memory in the SGA
• Relieves the burden place on the Shared Pool
• Used for:
– Session memory for the Shared Server
– I/O server processes
– Backup and restore operations for RMAN
• Does not use an LRU list
• Sized by LARGE_POOL_SIZE
• Can be dynamically resized
Java Pool
• Services parsing requirements for Java
commands
• Required if installing and using Java
• Sized by JAVA_POOL_SIZE parameter
Oracle “Process” Structure
• Oracle takes advantage of various types of
Processes:
– User Process: Started at the time a database
user requests connection to the Oracle Server
– Server Process: Connects to the Oracle
instance and is started when a user
establishes a session
– Background Processes: Started when an
Oracle instance is started
User Process
• A program that requests interaction with the
Oracle server
• Must first establish a connection
• Does not interact directly with the Oracle server

Oracle Data Storage
Oracle keeps all system and user data in
two basic storage containers:
1. Tablespace… a logical entity known
only to Oracle
2. Data Files… physical files that may
(typically) be seen from the operating
system
Tablespaces
• Can belong to only one database at a time
• Consist of one or more data files
• Are further divided into logical units of
store
Data Files
• Can belong to only one tablespace and
one database
• Are a repository for schema object data
Database
Tablespace

2 Types of Tablespace
1. Tablespaces required by Oracle for
normal operations
2. Tablespaces that contain data and
indexes that support your applications
Required Tablespaces
• System – Contains the Oracle Data
Dictionary
• Sysaux - New to 10g; supports historic
monitoring / tuning
• Temporary – Used for disk-based sorting
of data (select...from…order by)
• Undo – Used for transaction consistency
during Insert / Update / Delete statements
SQL Statements (IUDS)
•
•
•
•
Insert
Update
Delete
Select
What happens when
someone connects to
the database and
issues one of these
statements?
Connect to Oracle – What Happens
User
Process
Connect User/Pwd
Server
Process
• Are “User” definition and privileges in SGA
“Dictionary Cache”?
– If not, try to fetch from the “System”
tablespace
– If there, validate Pwd and privileges to login
– Allow connection if all is right; otherwise
decline connection
“Select” – What Happens First?
Select *
From MyTab
Order by 1;
• Is this statement in the “Library Cache”?
– If statement cached then it has been recently
been “parsed” and “executed”
– If not cached then “parse” the statement
– If cached then skip parsing stage and execute
statement
“Select” – Parsing the Statement
Select *
From MyTab
Order by 1;
• Does “MyTab” exist?
• Does user have Privs to select from
“MyTab”
• What columns are in “MyTab”
• What is the first column in “MyTab”
“Select” – Executing the Statement
Select *
From MyTab
Order by 1;
• Is “MyTab” data in the SGA “Buffer Cache”?
– If not, fetch data into Buffer Cache
• Sort data in “MyTab” by the first column
– If can sort records in memory then do so
– If cannot sort in memory then use “Temporary”
tablespace as disk-based staging area
• Return records to client process
“I/U/D” – What Happens First?
Insert (a,b,c)
Into MyTab;
• Is this statement in the “Library Cache”?
– If statement cached then it has been recently
been “parsed” and “executed”
– If not cached then “parse” the statement
– If cached then skip parsing stage and execute
statement
“I/U/D” – Executing the Statement
Insert (a,b,c)
Into MyTab;
• Validate values to be inserted
• Execute the statement
– Keep DB version of the record in “Undo”
tablespace until Commit or Rollback
– Record changes in SGA “Redo Log Buffer”
– Change records in SGA “Buffer Cache”
– DBWn writes changed records to data file(s)
as part of buffer cache management
“I/U/D” – Executing the Statement
Insert (a,b,c)
Into MyTab;
Commit;
or
Rollback;
• If “Commit” then…
– LGWn writes “Redo Log Buffer” entries to
“Redo Logs”
– Undo entries are invalidated
• If “Rollback” then…
– Migrate DB version of record in Undo back to
tablespace/data file
Archivelog Mode
• If Instance in “Archivelog” mode Redo Log
Files are “Archived” to Archive Logs; which
may be used to recover your database in
the case of disaster

Creating new Database
Managing and Organizing a
Database
• Creating a database is the first step in
managing a database system
• A database may have been created
automatically as part of Oracle9i
Server installation, or you can create
a new one later
• Oracle Data Migration Assistant is
used to migrate from an earlier
version of the database
Creation Prerequisites
To create a new database, you must
have the following:
• A privileged account authenticated in
one of the following ways:
– By the operating system
– Using a password file
• Sufficient memory to start the
instance
• Sufficient disk space for the planned
database
Planning Database File
Locations
• Keep at least two active copies of a
database control file on at least two
different devices.
• Multiplex the redo log files and put
group members on different disks.
• Separate data files whose data:
– Will participate in disk resource
contention across different physical disk
resources
– Have different life spans
– Have different administrative
Creating a Database
An Oracle database can be created
using:
• Oracle Database Configuration
Assistant
• The CREATE DATABASE command
Using the Database Configuration Assistant
The Database Configuration Assistant
allows you to:
•
•
•
•
Create a database
Configure database options
Delete a database
Manage templates
– Create new template using pre-defined
template settings
– Create new template from an existing
database
– Delete database template
Create a Database
Database Information

Creating a Database Using
OMF
• Define the OMF initialization
parameters in the
parameter file
– DB_CREATE_FILE_DEST
– DB_CREATE_ONLINE_DEST_n
STARTUP NOMOUNT
CREATE DATABASE
DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP;
Troubeshooting
Creation of the database fails if:
• There are syntax errors in the SQL
script
• Files that should be created already
exist
• Operating system errors such as file
or directory permission or insufficient
space errors occur
After Database Creation
The database contains:
• Datafiles, control files, and redo log
files
• User SYS with the password
change_on_install
• User SYSTEM with the password
manager
• Internal tables (but no data dictionary
views)
