Name Description
sname Name of the schema that owns oname
oname Table whose conflict resolution statistics are to be deleted
start_date Beginning of date range for which statistics are to be deleted If NULL, all entries less than
end_date are deleted
end_date End of date range for which statistics are to be deleted If NULL, all entries greater than end_date
are deleted
There are no restrictions on calling PURGE_STATISTICS
16.6.1.3.1 Exceptions
The PURGE_STATISTICS procedure may raise the following exceptions:
Name Number Description
missingobject −23308 Object oname does not exist
missingschema −23306 Schema sname does not exist
16.6.1.3.2 Example
This example purges all records collected for the products table between 01−Jan−1998 and 01−Feb−1998:
BEGIN
DBMS_REPCAT.PURGE_STATISTICS(
sname => 'SPROCKET',
oname => 'PRODUCTS',
start_date => '01−JAN−1998',
end_date => '01−FEB−1998');
END;

About Deferred Transactions and RPCs
DBMS_DEFER_SYS: Managing Deferred Transactions
DBMS_DEFER: Building Deferred Calls
DBMS_DEFER_QUERY: Performing Diagnostics and Maintenance
Oracle's advanced replication option relies primarily on deferred transactions and remote procedure calls (RPCs) When you commit a transaction against a replicated table, for example, the replication support
triggers queue a deferred transaction to do your bidding in one or more remote databases In addition to providing many of the underpinnings for the advanced replication option, the packages used to create and manipulate deferred calls are available for direct use in your applications You will use the packages described
in this chapter for deferred transactions and RPCs
DBMS_DEFER_SYS
Performs administrative tasks such as scheduling, executing, and deleting queued transactions
DBMS_DEFER
Builds deferred calls
DBMS_DEFER_QUERY
Provides access to parameters passed to deferred calls, primarily for diagnostic purposes
NOTE: Users must have explicit EXECUTE privileges on DBMS_DEFER in order to create
deferred calls
17.1 About Deferred Transactions and RPCs
This section provides some basic information you'll find useful in using the packages described in this
chapter
17.1.1 About Remote Destinations
Every remote procedure call has to be executed somewhere, and Oracle offers several methods of specifying
where
If you are using the advanced replication option, you have implicitly named the destinations for deferred RPCs and transactions by creating master sites Whenever a user performs DML on a table, the transaction is applied locally and is queued for delivery to all other sites where the table is replicated; these sites are listed in the DBA_REPSITES data dictionary view Similarly, replicated procedure calls are also queued for all master sites in the replicated environment Refer to Chapter 15, Advanced Replication, for details on using
DBMS_REPCAT, which performs most replicated environment administration operations
If you are not using the advanced replication option, then the destination site(s) are determined by one of the following means, listed in order of precedence:
1
The sites specified in the nodes parameter in the call to DBMS_DEFER.CALL, described later in this chapter
2
Trang 4The sites specified in the nodes parameter to DBMS_DEFER.TRANSACTION, described later in this chapter
3
The sites specified in the DEFDEFAULTDEST data dictionary view, described later in this chapter (Table 17.4)
If Oracle cannot determine a call's destination by any of these methods, or if you specify differing destinations
in the DBMS_DEFER.TRANSACTION and DBMS_DEFER.CALL procedures, the deferred call will raise
an exception
17.1.2 Data Dictionary Views
There are eight data dictionary views (see Table 17.1) that contain data about deferred transactions and RPCs You can query these views to determine information such as the destination of RPC calls, error messages, and scheduled execution times Most of the packages associated with deferred calls reference and/or modify the data in these views
Tables 17−2 through 17−9 provide details about the contents of these views
Table 17.1: Data Dictionary Views Associated with Deferred Calls
View Name Description
DEFCALL Contains information about all deferred RPCs Queries SYSTEM.DEF$_CALL

DEFDEFAULTDEST Contains the default destinations for deferred RPCs Queries
SYSTEM.DEF$_DEFAULTDEST
DEFERROR Contains error information for deferred calls that could not be applied at their
destination Queries SYSTEM
DEF$_ERROR
DEFERRORCOUNT Contains the count of errors for each destination Queries SYSTEM.DEF$_ERROR DEFSCHEDULE Contains information about the scheduling of deferred jobs Queries
SYSTEM.DEF$_DESTINATION and SYS.JOB$
DEFTRAN Contains information about all deferred calls Queries SYSTEM.DEF$_CALL and
SYS.USER$
DEFTRANDEST Contains the destination database(s) for each deferred transaction Queries
SYSTEM.DEF$_CALL, SYSTEM.DEF$_DESTINATION, SYSTEM.DEF$_ERROR, SYSTEM.DEF$_CALLDEST, and SYSTEM.REPCAT$_REPPROP
