How to Prevent Locks

This script checks the current users Foreign Keys to make sure of the
following:

1) All the FK columns have indexes to prevent a possible locking

2) Checks the ORDER OF THE INDEXED COLUMNS. To prevent the locking
problem the columns MUST be indexed in the same order as the FK is
defined.

3) If the script finds a mismatch, the script reports the correct
order of columns that need to be added to prevent the locking
problem.


IMPORTANT, PLEASE NOTE


This locking problem, due to a FK column not being indexed, is discussed
in the 8x/9x Concepts Manual under Data Integrity chapter.

Starting with Oracle9i, Release 1 (9.0.1), Oracle no longer requires
a share lock on unindexed foreign keys when doing an update or delete on
the primary key. It still obtains the table-level share lock, but then
releases it immediately after obtaining it. If multiple primary keys are
update or deleted, the lock is obtained and released once for each row.

apply to versions prior to Oracle V7.1.5.

This locking problem, due to a FK column not being indexed, is discussed
in the 8x/9x Concepts Manual under Data Integrity chapter.

Starting with Oracle9i, Release 1 (9.0.1), Oracle no longer requires
a share lock on unindexed foreign keys when doing an update or delete on
the primary key. It still obtains the table-level share lock, but then
releases it immediately after obtaining it. If multiple primary keys are
update or deleted, the lock is obtained and released once for each row.

Abstract

SCRIPT TO CHECK FOR FOREIGN KEY LOCKING ISSUES




Product Name, Product Version
Rdbms:07.0.X



Platform
Platform Independent

Date Created

Execution Environment:


Access Privileges:

Usage:

Instructions:


PROOFREAD THIS SCRIPT BEFORE USING IT! Due to differences in the way text
editors, e-mail packages, and operating systems handle text formatting (spaces,
tabs, and carriage returns), this script may not be in an executable state
when you first receive it. Check over the script to ensure that errors of
this type are corrected.The script will produce an output file named [outputfile].
This file can be viewed in a browser or uploaded for support analysis.



Description

This script checks the current users Foreign Keys to make sure of the
following:

1) All the FK columns have indexes to prevent a possible locking

2) Checks the ORDER OF THE INDEXED COLUMNS. To prevent the locking
problem the columns MUST be indexed in the same order as the FK is
defined.

3) If the script finds a mismatch, the script reports the correct
order of columns that need to be added to prevent the locking
problem.

IMPORTANT, PLEASE NOTE

The potential locking issues, due to a FK column not being indexed,
apply to versions prior to Oracle V7.1.5.


This locking problem is discussed in the Oracle 7 Server,
Application Developer's Guide Page 6-10 under the section
"On Index on the Foreign Key"
