Online redefinition is a great way to make structural change on "big" tables having "lots of" DML. Using online redefinition, partitioning-nonpartitioning, adding-dropping columns, changing column data types, moving to another tablespace and more can be done with a very small unavailability of the table when compared with direct operations.
Here are some online redefinition MOS notes which make life easier:
- Dbms_Redefinition Online Reorganization Of Tables (Doc Id 149564.1)
- How To Re-Organize A Table Online (Doc Id 177407.1)
- How To Shrink A Table Using Online Redefinition(Doc Id 1357878.1)
- How To Compress A Table While It Is Online(Doc Id 1353967.1)
- How To Move A Table To A New / Different Tablespace While It Is Online
- How To Convert Long Column To Clob Using Dbms_Redefinition Package (Doc Id 251417.1)
- Online Redefinition Of Table Using Rowid Option (Doc Id 210407.1)
- An Example Of A Complex Online Table Redefinition (Dbms_Redefinition) (Doc Id 1358236.1)
My case was to convert a TIMESTAMP column to DATE.
In order to prepare a test environment:
SQL> create table table1 (col1 number, col2 timestamp);
SQL> insert into table1 values (1,systimestamp);
SQL> commit;
SQL> create table table2 (col1 number, col2 date);
SQL> BEGIN
DBMS_REDEFINITION.CAN_REDEF_TABLE
(uname => 'eb'
,tname => 'table1'
,options_flag => dbms_redefinition.cons_use_rowid);
END;
/
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
When converting column data types, "col_mapping" parameter must be defined onDBMS_REDEFINITION.START_REDEF_TABLE procedure. If not following error raises:
SQL> BEGIN
DBMS_REDEFINITION.START_REDEF_TABLE
(uname => 'eb'
,orig_table => 'table1'
,int_table => 'table2'
,options_flag => dbms_redefinition.cons_use_rowid);
END;
/
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-42016: shape of interim table does not match specified column mapping
When we specify TO_DATE function on the col_mapping parameter in our case :
SQL> BEGIN
DBMS_REDEFINITION.START_REDEF_TABLE
(uname => 'eb'
,orig_table => 'table1'
,int_table => 'table2'
,col_mapping => 'col1 col1,to_date(col2) col2'
,options_flag => dbms_redefinition.cons_use_rowid);
END;
/
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-12008: error in materialized view refresh path
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
As a workaround to this problem, i used first TO_CHAR and then TO_DATE functions and it worked.
SQL> BEGIN
DBMS_REDEFINITION.START_REDEF_TABLE
(uname => 'eb'
,orig_table => 'table1'
,int_table => 'table2'
,col_mapping => 'col1 col1,TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(col2,''dd/MM/yyyy hh24/mi/ss''),''dd/MM/yyyy hh24/mi/ss'') col2'
,options_flag => dbms_redefinition.cons_use_rowid);
END;
/
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> BEGIN
DBMS_REDEFINITION.FINISH_REDEF_TABLE
(uname => 'eb'
,orig_table => 'table1'
,int_table => 'table2');
END;
/
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> desc table1
Name Null? Type
------------- -------- ---------------
COL1 NUMBER
COL2 DATE
Note:
On the other hand when converting from DATE to TIMESTAMP you can use only TO_TIMESTAMP function with no errors on 11gR2. For 10g & 11gR1 there's an issue and you get "ORA-42016: shape of interim table does not match specified column mapping" error. Following note offers a workaround for this issue by using a user defined function.
- How to Convert Date Column to Timestamp Using DBMS_REDEFINITION Package? (Doc ID 556283.1)
create or replace function convert_date_to_ts(mydate date) return timestampisbeginreturn to_timestamp(mydate);end;/BEGINDBMS_REDEFINITION.START_REDEF_TABLE('scott','sno_date2','sno_timestamp2','myid myid, convert_date_to_ts(mydate) mydate', dbms_redefinition.cons_use_pk);end;/
Maybe try with:
cast(my_timestamp as date)
to avoid all the to_date/to_char stuff
