Database info.

==============

List of users::

  select distinct(OWNER) from ALL_TABLES;

List of current user owned tables::

  select * from USER_TABLES;

  select TABLE_NAME from USER_TABLES;

List of tables by owner::

  select OWNER || '.' || TABLE_NAME from ALL_TABLES

    order by OWNER;

List of current user table sizes::

  select SEGMENT_NAME, SEGMENT_TYPE, sum(BYTES) from USER_EXTENTS

    group by SEGMENT_NAME, SEGMENT_TYPE order by sum(BYTES);

  select sum(BYTES) from USER_EXTENTS;

Tables indexes::

  select * from USER_INDEXES order by TABLE_NAME;

List of index sizes::

  select index_name, table_name, sum(user_extents.bytes) as bytes from user_indexes

    left outer join user_extents on user_extents.segment_name = table_name

    group by index_name, table_name

    order by table_name;

List of tables without primary keys::

  select OWNER || '.' || TABLE_NAME from ALL_TABLES

    where TABLE_NAME not in (

      select distinct TABLE_NAME from ALL_CONSTRAINTS where CONSTRAINT_TYPE = 'P'

    ) and OWNER in ('USER1', 'USER2')

    order by OWNER, TABLE_NAME;

List of currenct user constraints::

  select * from USER_CONSTRAINTS;

List of tablespaces::

  select distinct TABLESPACE_NAME from USER_TABLES;

List of current user permissions::

  select * from SESSION_PRIVS;

List of user permissions to tables::

  select * from ALL_TAB_PRIVS where TABLE_SCHEMA not like '%SYS' and TABLE_SCHEMA not like 'SYS%';

List of user privileges::

  select * from USER_SYS_PRIVS

  select * from USER_TAB_PRIVS

  select * from USER_ROLE_PRIVS

Profiling.

==========

Timing info about last queries::

  select LAST_LOAD_TIME, ELAPSED_TIME, MODULE, SQL_TEXT elasped from v$sql

    order by LAST_LOAD_TIME desc

Improved version of above code::

  column LAST_LOAD_TIME format a20;

  column TIME format a20;

  column MODULE format a10;

  column SQL_TEXT format a60;

  set autotrace off;

  set timing off;

  select * from (

    select LAST_LOAD_TIME, to_char(ELAPSED_TIME/1000, '999,999,999.000') || ' ms' as TIME, MODULE, SQL_TEXT from SYS."V_\$SQL"

      where SQL_TEXT like '%BATCH_BRANCHES%'

      order by LAST_LOAD_TIME desc

    ) where ROWNUM <= 5;

In SQL/Plus::

  SET TIMING ON;

  -- do stuff

  SET TIMING OFF;

or::

  set serveroutput on

  variable n number

  exec :n := dbms_utility.get_time;

  select ......

  exec dbms_output.put_line( (dbms_utility.get_time-:n)/100) || ' seconds....' );

See:

  http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/dynviews_2113.htm

                $SQL lists statistics on shared SQL area without the GROUP BY

                clause.

Last table modification time.

=============================

::

  select max(scn_to_timestamp(ora_rowscn)) from TBL;

  select timestamp from all_tab_modifications where table_owner = 'OWNER';

  select timestamp from all_tab_modifications where table_name = 'TABLE';

List of Oracle Reserved Words.

==============================

===================

::

  column parameter format a32;

  column value format a32;

  select parameter, value from v$nls_parameters;

  alter session set NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'yyyy-mm-dd HH:MI:SS';

  alter session set NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT = 'MI:SS.FF6';

  alter session set NLS_TIME_FORMAT = 'HH24:MI:SS.FF6';

  select sysdate from dual;

Working with SQL/Plus.

======================

Show error details::

  show errors;

Dump how exactly field stored::

  select dump(date '2009-08-07') from dual;
