Oracle数据库的global_name,在Database Link与GLOBAL_NAMES参数一文中提到了,设置global_names初始化参数为true后,本地的数据库链接名称必须与远程数据库的global_name相同,才能正常使用数据库链接。那么怎么查询数据库的global_name呢? SQL col global
Oracle数据库的global_name,在Database Link与GLOBAL_NAMES参数一文中提到了,设置global_names初始化参数为true后,本地的数据库链接名称必须与远程数据库的global_name相同,才能正常使用数据库链接。那么怎么查询数据库的global_name呢?
SQL> col global_name for a30
SQL> select * from global_name;GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DMDB
那么怎么样修改global_name?
ALTER DATABASE
RENAME GLOBAL_NAME TO NEW_NAME;
注意不要直接用update global_name set global_name=”将global_name设置为空,否则数据库不能启动,会报ORA-00600[18061] 或 ORA-00600[18062]这样的错误。 只有用备份进行恢复后才能打开。(参见metalink note 743676.1)。
那么global_name到底是个什么对象呢?
SQL> select owner,object_name,object_type from dba_objects where object_name=’GLOBAL_NAME’;
OWNER OBJECT_NAME OBJECT_TYPE
---------- -------------------- --------------------
SYS GLOBAL_NAME VIEW
PUBLIC GLOBAL_NAME SYNONYMSQL> select text from dba_views where view_name=’GLOBAL_NAME’;
TEXT
----------------------------------------------------------------
select value$ from sys.props$ where name = ‘GLOBAL_DB_NAME’
可以看到global_name实际上是一个视图,来源于sys.props$表,而这个表是非常重要的一个关于数据库属性的表,不要随意更改此表的内容,否则将引起无可预料的、无法挽回的损失。
在用alert database rename global_name时,如果设置了global_name类似于”dmdb.com”这样的名称,则以后更改名称,则没有常规的办法去掉”.”分隔符了。
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DMDBSQL> alter database rename global_name to dmdb.com;
Database altered.
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DMDB.COMSQL> alter database rename global_name to dmdb.cn;
Database altered.
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DMDB.CNSQL> alter database rename global_name to dmdb;
Database altered.
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DMDB.CNSQL> alter database rename global_name to dm;
Database altered.
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DM.CNSQL> alter database rename global_name to dm.com.cn;
Database altered.
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DM.COM.CNSQL> alter database rename global_name to dmdb;
Database altered.
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DMDB.COM.CN
SQL> alter database rename global_name to dmdb.net;Database altered.
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DMDB.NET
要去掉点分隔符,只有用update:
SQL> update global_name set global_name=’DMDB’;
1 row updated.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> select * from global_name;
GLOBAL_NAME
------------------------------
DMDB
郑重提示:除非万不得已,不要去更新global_name视图,即时更新,也不要去更新global_name的基表props$,更不要将global_name更新为空。
