Maximum number of transaction. (Newby question).

  1. Re: Maximum number of transaction. (Newby question).

    You can log a documentation bug through the iTar system. I have done this in
    the past, though it probably won't get changed until 10g release 2 now.

    Hello Daniel,

    I am afraid that the URL you've mentioned will be of little help to
    the original poster. The manual for 9.2
    (http://download-west.oracle.com/docs...a96540/clauses
    8a.htm#997633)
    claims this:

    "INITRANS integer
    Specify the initial number of concurrent transaction entries allocated
    within each data block allocated to the database object. This value
    can range from 1 to 255 and defaults to 1, ..."


    However, the reality is such that, under 8.1.7, Oracle creates _one_
    ITL entry whilst under 9.2.0.3/4 it creates _two_. The same 'create
    table' statement was executed in both cases:

    create table t1(x int) initrans 1 maxtrans 1;


    Rgds.

    You are assuming that your interpretation of MINTRANS and MAXTRANS is as
    you
    think it is. I'd suggest going to http://tahiti.oracle.com and
    researching the subject more.

    Thanks.

    Mark! Mark Townsend! Here's another one that appears to require a bit of
    attention.

    Thanks.

    It was an attempt to reuse what I thought was an old joke. As neither you
    nor Ben picked up on this I clearly badly missed the target.

    More seriously, this sort of experimenting is exactly the sort of thing that
    DBAs should have time and the energy to do IMO. It also occurs to me that,
    not for the first time, I might appear to be suggesting that looking at
    Block Dumps is a Bad Thing(tm). This isn't my view at all - I just don't
    think they are easy things to read.
