Drop all Objects from Schema In Postgres

To Drop all objects from Postgres Schema there could be following two approaches: Drop Schema with cascade all and re-create it again.  In some cases where you dont want to/not allowed to drop and recreate schema, its easy to look for objects on current schema and drop them. following script would help to do so, Create function which would do the task and then drop that function too. --- CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION drop_DB_objects() RETURNS VOID AS $$ DECLARE  rd_object RECORD; v_idx_statement VARCHAR(500);   BEGIN ---1. Dropping all stored functions RAISE NOTICE '%', 'Dropping all stored functions...'; FOR rd_object IN ( SELECT format('%I.%I(%s)', ns.nspname, p.proname, oidvectortypes(p.proargtypes)) as functionDef     FROM pg_proc p     INNER JOIN pg_namespace ns ON (p.pronamespace = ns.oid)    WHERE ns.nspname = current_schema      AND p.proname <...

How to Troubleshoot Connectivity Issue with 11gR2 SCAN

I installed the Oracle 11g RAC successfully, But when tried connecting from remote client via SCAN, it used to raise ORA-12537. This is the most common issues that the happens with SCAN listener. And there are few common mistakes that generally  cause this issue. . So, here is how we can troubleshoot the connectivity issues with SCAN, and cases out the possibilities. 1)  Check if Local_listener and remote_listener parameter are set properly on all nodes. 2)  The very common issue is with permissions. SCAN will always be created under grid user (Grid cluserware installation user). Oracle will also create one local listener “LISTENER” during grid infrastructure installation. But if that is not present then always make sure that you create a local listener with grid user. This is required to handover the connection between remote and local listener. 3)  Also “oracle” executable should have given to oracle and grid user i.e. 6751.  Under $ORACLE_HOME/bi...

Distributed transaction in Oracle ( Over Oracle DBLink)

To fetch the data from one server to and other Oracle server over DBLink, I experienced the following facts of Oracle Distributed transactions: Security issue: -           We cannot create Public synonym for the remote object accessed over Private DBLink of other Database.   -           It’s allowed to create private synonym for remote object, but you cannot grant the access over this synonym to any other schema. If you try to provide the grants to other schema Oracle raises an error:              [ORA-02021: DDL operations are not allowed on a remote database] “In an all you can access remote objects over private DBLink in the same schema where DBLink is created”. Fetching the Ref Cursor at Remote site:                   Let’s say we have two site...
