MERGE SQL Statement: Lesser Known Facets MERGE SQL Statement: Lesser Known Facets Andrej Pashchenko @Andrej_SQL blog.sqlora.com About me • Working at Trivadis Germany, Düsseldorf • Focusing on Oracle: • Data Warehousing • Application Development • Application Performance • Course instructor „Oracle New Features for Developers“ @Andrej_SQL blog.sqlora.com • MERGE is a part of SQL 2003 and has been introduced in Oracle 9i • Since then, the MERGE has been well adopted and widely used, but sometimes still has some confusing or unexpected behavior ORA-30926 ORA-30926 • ORA-30926 is definitely the most confusing error related to MERGE • The error description is somewhat confusing too: • One of the reasons is clearly documented: ORA-30926 - Example • Create an „overlaping“ bonus list and try to merge it in employee table INSERT INTO scott.bonus (ename, job, sal, comm) SELECT ename, job, sal, sal*0.2 comm Sales department 20% FROM scott.emp WHERE deptno = 30; INSERT INTO scott.bonus (ename, job, sal, comm) SELECT ename, job, sal, sal*0.1 comm Each manager 10% FROM scott.emp WHERE job = 'MANAGER'; SQL> MERGE INTO scott.emp e 2 USING scott.bonus b But SALES also has a manager: 3 ON (b.ename = e.ename) BLAKE will be updated twice 4 WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE set e.comm = b.comm; USING scott.bonus b * ERROR at line 2: ORA-30926: unable to get a stable set of rows in the source tables ORA-30926 - How to find the problem? • Check the duplicates in the source with respect to the ON-keys: SQL> MERGE INTO scott.emp e SQL> SELECT ename 2 USING scott.bonus b 2 FROM scott.bonus b 3 ON (b.ename = e.ename) 3 GROUP BY ename 4 WHEN MATCHED THEN 4 HAVING COUNT(*) > 1; 5 UPDATE SET e.comm = b.comm; USING scott.bonus b ENAME * ---------- ERROR at line 2: BLAKE ORA-30926: unable to get a stable set of rows in the source tables • Find the correct way to avoid duplicates. Often this is a business question, e.g. use MAX or SUM: SQL>SELECT ename, MAX(comm) comm FROM scott.bonus b GROUP BY ename; ORA-30926 Fixing the problem • Fix the problem in the source data or directly in your query: SQL> MERGE INTO scott.emp e 2 USING (SELECT ename, MAX(comm) comm 3 FROM scott.bonus b 4 GROUP BY ename) b 5 ON (b.ename = e.ename) 6 WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE set e.comm = b.comm; 8 rows merged. • What does the documentation say about ORA-30926: ORA-30926: unable to get a stable set of rows in the source tables Cause: A stable set of rows could not be got because of large dml activity or a non- deterministic where clause. Action: Remove any non-deterministic where clauses and reissue the dml. The whole execution three times? • Have you noticed that the execution takes much longer if you get ORA-30926? SQL> MERGE INTO scott.emp e 2 USING scott.bonus b 3 ON (b.ename = e.ename) 4 WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE SET e.comm = b.comm; USING scott.bonus b * ERROR at line 2: ORA-30926: unable to get a stable set of rows in the source tables ----------------------------------------------------------------- | Id | Operation | Name | Starts | E-Rows | A-Rows | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | 0 | MERGE STATEMENT | | 3 | | 0 | | 1 | MERGE | EMP | 3 | | 0 | | 2 | VIEW | | 3 | | 21 | |* 3 | HASH JOIN | | 3 | 9 | 21 | | 4 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| BONUS | 3 | 9 | 27 | | 5 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| EMP | 3 | 14 | 26 | ----------------------------------------------------------------- Write Consistency and DML restarts Write Consistency and DML Restarts (UPDATE) SQL> SELECT ename, sal, comm ENAME SAL COMM FROM emp WHERE sal < 1000; ---------- ---------- ---------- SMITH 800 JAMES 950 Session 1 Session 2 SQL> UPDATE emp Cannot update JAMES‘s row an waits t1 2 SET sal = 1000 3 WHERE ename = 'JAMES'; SQL> UPDATE emp t 2 SET comm = nvl(comm,0) + 1000 2 3 WHERE sal < 1000; COMMIT; t3 Session 2 can now update JAMES, but JAMES‘s salary is not less than 1000 anymore t4 ENAME SAL COMM ---------- ---------- ---------- SMITH 800 1000 JAMES 1000 Write Consistency and DML Restart Identify rows to be updated Get row in Get SCN1 in consistent mode (per SCN1) current mode No Request new Rollback all changes tracked columns SCN made so far unchanged?

ORA-30926 revisited Write Consistency and DML Restart • Obviously Oracle is using the same mechanism of mini rollbacks as with write consistency also to ensure its deterministic behavior • SET-columns are tracked • Even within the same session updating the column to another value will be detected • The MERGE statement will be restarted • As a result, we can observe the mentioned triple effort: MERGE and than rollback, SELECT FOR UPDATE and then MERGE again ORA-38104 ORA-38104 • Oracle doesn’t allow to update columns used in ON clause • If you feel like you have to do this, verify your requirements carefully • Sometimes useful for ad hoc data manipulation, fixing erroneous data, etc. EMP • Assign the role EMPNO ENAME ACCOUNTING to each EMP_ROLES employee of deptno=10 7839 KING ENAME ROLE_NAME 7782 CLARK • If an employee is MERGE? KING ACCOUNTING assigned the DEFAULT 7934 MILLER CLARK SALES role, overwrite this assignment. EMP_ROLES CLARK ACCOUNTING ENAME ROLE_NAME MILLER ACCOUNTING KING DEFAULT CLARK SALES ORA-38104 • The straightforward approach doesn’t work: SQL> MERGE INTO emp_roles t 2 USING (SELECT empno, 'ACCOUNTING' role_name, 'DEFAULT' old_role 3 FROM emp 4 WHERE deptno = 10 5 ) q 6 ON (t.empno = q.empno and t.role_name = q.old_role) 7 WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE SET t.role_name = q.role_name 8 WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN INSERT VALUES (q.empno, q.role_name) ; ON (t.empno = q.empno and t.role_name = q.old_role) * ERROR at line 6: ORA-38104: Columns referenced in the ON Clause cannot be updated: "T"."ROLE_NAME" ORA-38104 • Using WHERE clause instead of ON only seems to work, because the result is wrong: no new role assignment for MILLER (7782) SQL> MERGE INTO emp_roles t 2 USING (SELECT empno, 'ACCOUNTING' role_name EMP_ROLES 3 FROM emp 4 WHERE deptno =10 ENAME ROLE_NAME 5 ) q KING ACCOUNTING 6 ON (t.empno = q.empno) 7 WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE CLARK SALES 8 SET role_name = q.role_name 9 WHERE t.role_name = 'DEFAULT' MILLER ACCOUNTING 10 WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN INSERT (empno, role_name) 11 VALUES (q.empno, q.role_name) ; 2 rows merged.

  • SQL Version Analysis
    Rory McGann SQL Version Analysis Structured Query Language, or SQL, is a powerful tool for interacting with and utilizing databases through the use of relational algebra and calculus, allowing for efficient and effective manipulation and analysis of data within databases. There have been many revisions of SQL, some minor and others major, since its standardization by ANSI in 1986, and in this paper I will discuss several of the changes that led to improved usefulness of the language. In 1970, Dr. E. F. Codd published a paper in the Association of Computer Machinery titled A Relational Model of Data for Large shared Data Banks, which detailed a model for Relational database Management systems (RDBMS) [1]. In order to make use of this model, a language was needed to manage the data stored in these RDBMSs. In the early 1970’s SQL was developed by Donald Chamberlin and Raymond Boyce at IBM, accomplishing this goal. In 1986 SQL was standardized by the American National Standards Institute as SQL-86 and also by The International Organization for Standardization in 1987. The structure of SQL-86 was largely similar to SQL as we know it today with functionality being implemented though Data Manipulation Language (DML), which defines verbs such as select, insert into, update, and delete that are used to query or change the contents of a database. SQL-86 defined two ways to process a DML, direct processing where actual SQL commands are used, and embedded SQL where SQL statements are embedded within programs written in other languages. SQL-86 supported Cobol, Fortran, Pascal and PL/1.

  • Sql Merge Performance on Very Large Tables
    Sql Merge Performance On Very Large Tables CosmoKlephtic prologuizes Tobie rationalised, his Poole. his Yanaton sloughing overexposing farrow kibble her pausingly. game steeply, Loth and bound schismatic and incoercible. Marcel never danced stagily when Used by Google Analytics to track your activity on a website. One problem is caused by the increased number of permutations that the optimizer must consider. Much to maintain for very large tables on sql merge performance! The real issue is how to write or remove files in such a way that it does not impact current running queries that are accessing the old files. Also, the performance of the MERGE statement greatly depends on the proper indexes being used to match both the source and the target tables. This is used when the join optimizer chooses to read the tables in an inefficient order. Once a table is created, its storage policy cannot be changed. Make sure that you have indexes on the fields that are in your WHERE statements and ON conditions, primary keys are indexed by default but you can also create indexes manually if you have to. It will allow the DBA to create them on a staging table before switching in into the master table. This means the engine must follow the join order you provided on the query, which might be better than the optimized one. Should I split up the data to load iit faster or use a different structure? Are individual queries faster than joins, or: Should I try to squeeze every info I want on the client side into one SELECT statement or just use as many as seems convenient? If a dashboard uses auto refresh, make sure it refreshes no faster than the ETL processes running behind the scenes.
