Aaaah those awful dilemnas of relative youth. But don't it make ya feel ALIVE?? There will come a time when the only conflict is down to the wife buying Cornflakes when you wanted Shredded Wheat.

I wish someone would teach Mrs Zorba that. She wins by using the big wine bottle tacticOriginally posted by cojak View Post
I always end up winning the argument with that and the champagne tactic (with Mr Cojak, not Mr WA, obv...)

Agreed. Shutdown abort is not some sort of "Oh my God, we're risking the DB... better get our CVs ready!" thing: just means that all sessions are suddenly terminated, and the DB then shuts down. When you start it up, again, it'll eventually put everything right. Ah! The majesty of Oracle!Originally posted by TheFaQQer View PostDepending on how you are shutting down the database, it will wait for jobs to finish before it closes completely, although new connections will be forbidden.
I worked for a client where they couldn't shut down cleanly because they had code running which was doing a blocking dequeue, which was always listening. Without putting a break point in, or enqueuing a stop message, the system never got to a point where you could shutdown cleanly.
Shutdown abort will always do it though

It's only as slow as the combined rollbacks needed. If Fred had run a gigantic update, and then the DB was shutdown with abort befoer Fred's transaction had been committed, then, when the DB is started-up again, it will redo everything that was in-progress at the time of the shutdown, and then rollback anything that was not actually committed at the time of the shutdown. Ah! The majesty of Oracle... again!Originally posted by Churchill View PostComment

I used to put Morcambe on my job applications when leaving uni - in the section which asked if there was anywhere in the world where you would not work. So not the middle east, Northern Ireland (it was bad back then) or any tin pot little overthrow the government because the price of fish has risen - Morcambe!Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
