Using the SQL ACCESS Advisor PL/SQL interface

Using the SQL ACCESS Advisor PL/SQL interface

In the article you will have a look at an example of using the SQL Access Advisor PL/SQL interface to obtain the access path and object structures change recommendations.

Let’s look at the SQL query example:

SELECT /*+ monitor */ /* test SQL Tuning */

p.prod_category,

p.prod_subcategory,

t.calendar_year,

SUM( s.quantity_sold ) AS total_quantity_sold,

SUM( s.amount_sold ) AS total_amount_sold

FROM

sh.sales s, sh.products p, sh.customers c, sh.countries co, sh.channels cha, sh.times t /*–, customers cu, countries co1, channels cha1*/

WHERE

s.prod_id = p.prod_id

and s.cust_id = c.cust_id

and c.country_id = co.country_id

and s.channel_id = cha.channel_id

and s.time_id = t.time_id

and

p.prod_valid = ‘A’

AND

cha.channel_class = ‘Direct’

AND

c.cust_valid = ‘A’

AND

co.country_name = ‘Australia’

GROUP BY

p.prod_category,

p.prod_subcategory,

t.calendar_year

ORDER BY

p.prod_category,

p.prod_subcategory,

t.calendar_year

;

We will put the SQL in a SQL Tuning set. First we will determine the SQL_ID.

SQL> select sql_text, sql_id from v$sql where sql_text like ‘%test SQL Tuning%’;

SUM( s.amount_sold ) AS total_amount_sold     FROM     sh.sales s, sh.produ

s.cust_id = c.cust_id and c.country_id = co.country_id and     s.channel_id =

SQL_TEXT

cha.channel_id and s.time_id = t.time_id and     p.prod_valid = ‘A’ AND

cha.channel_class = ‘Direct’ AND     c.cust_valid = ‘A’    AND

co.country_name = ‘Australia’ GROUP BY p.prod_category, p.prod_subca

ry,    t.calendar_year

The SQL_ID=b445892v7zc3k
Crete a SQL tuning SET and populate it with the SQL_ID

exec dbms_sqltune.create_sqlset(‘STS_NAME’,’Some STS description’,’SQL_TUNE’);

declare

cur dbms_sqltune.sqlset_cursor;

begin

open cur for

select value(P) from table(dbms_Sqltune.select_cursor_cache(‘sql_id= ”b445892v7zc3k”’))P;

dbms_sqltune.load_sqlset(sqlset_name=>’STS_NAME’, populate_cursor=>cur, sqlset_owner=>’SQL_TUNE’);

close cur;

end;

/

SQL> select * from dba_sqlset where NAME=’STS_NAME’;

SQL>
Execute the SQL Access Advisor using the PL/SQL interface

exec dbms_advisor.set_task_parameter(‘MYTASK_NAME’,’ANALYSIS_SCOPE’,’ALL’);

exec dbms_advisor.set_task_parameter(‘MYTASK_NAME’,’MODE’,’COMPREHENSIVE’);

exec dbms_advisor.set_task_parameter(‘MYTASK_NAME’,’WORKLOAD_SCOPE’,’FULL’); exec dbms_advisor.add_sts_ref(‘MYTASK_NAME’,’SQL_TUNE’,’STS_NAME’);

exec dbms_advisor.execute_task(‘MYTASK_NAME’);

Display the results. There are two ways to achieve it.
1. Use the below PL/SQL code
  
  set serveroutput on
  
  exec dbms_output.put_line(dbms_advisor.get_task_script(‘MYTASK_NAME’));
2. Get the result into a file
  
  create or replace directory t_dir as ‘/tmp’;
  
  grant read , write on directory t_Dir to public;
  
  begin
  
  dbms_advisor.create_file(dbms_advisor.get_task_script(‘MYTASK_NAME’),’T_DIR’,’sql_Access_r.sql’);
  
  end;
  
  /
Further analysis can be obtain using the following views.

SQL> SELECT REC_ID, RANK, BENEFIT FROM dba_ADVISOR_RECOMMENDATIONS WHERE TASK_NAME = ‘MYTASK_NAME’;
