　　 DBMS_LOGMNR

The DBMS_LOGMNR package contains procedures used to initialize the LogMiner tool and to begin and end a LogMiner session.

This chapter contains the following topics:

• Using DBMS_LOGMNR
  • Security Model
  • Constants
  • Operational Notes
• Summary of DBMS_LOGMNR Subprograms

DBMS_LOGMNR

LogMiner allows you to make queries based on actual data values. For instance, you could issue a query to select all updates to the table scott.emp or all deletions performed by user scott. You could also perform a query to show all updates to scott.emp that increased sal more than a certain amount. Such data can be used to analyze system behavior and to perform auditing tasks.

The DBMS_LOGMNR package contains procedures used to initialize the LogMiner tool. You use these procedures to list the redo log files to be analyzed and to specify the SCN or time range of interest. After these procedures complete, the server is ready to process SQL SELECT statements against the V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS view.

The data in redo log files is especially important for recovery, because you can use it to pinpoint when a database became corrupted.You can then use this information to recover the database to the state just prior to corruption.

This chapter discusses the following topics:

• DBMS_LOGMNR Constants

• Extracting Data Values From Redo Log Files

• Example of Using DBMS_LOGMNR

• Summary of DBMS_LOGMNR Subprograms

DBMS_LOGMNR Constants

The following sections describe the constants for the DBMS_LOGMNR package.

Constants for ADD_LOGFILE Options Flag

Constants for START_LOGMNR Options Flag

Extracting Data Values From Redo Log Files

LogMiner data extraction from redo log files is performed using two mine functions: DBMS_LOGMNR.MINE_VALUE and DBMS_LOGMNR.COLUMN_PRESENT, described later in this chapter.

Example of Using DBMS_LOGMNR

The following example shows how to use the DBMS_LOGMNR procedures to add redo log files to a LogMiner session, how to start LogMiner, how to perform a select operation from V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS, and how to end a LogMiner session. For complete descriptions of the DBMS_LOGMNR procedures, see Summary of DBMS_LOGMNR Subprograms.

EXECUTE DBMS_LOGMNR.ADD_LOGFILE( 
   LogFileName => '/oracle/logs/log1.f',
   Options => dbms_logmnr.NEW);

EXECUTE DBMS_LOGMNR.ADD_LOGFILE( 
   LogFileName => '/oracle/logs/log2.f', 
   Options => dbms_logmnr.ADDFILE);

EXECUTE DBMS_LOGMNR.START_LOGMNR(
   DictFileName =>'/oracle/dictionary.ora');

SELECT sql_redo 
FROM V$LOGMNR_CONTENTS
EXECUTE DBMS_LOGMNR.END_LOGMNR();
