Hii ,
I am a bit new to SQL and would like some help to solve the following problem.
I have a database X which contains a table TABLE with column named domain.I retrieve these values and create one database for each value with that value as the database name . For example , if the domain has the values value1, value2, value3 there should be three databases created with names value1 , value2 and value3...and when i add a value to the TABLE in database X , a new database should be created with the value X.TABLE.domainvalue ...
I need to write an SQLScript that accomplishes this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Links that would help me understand better are welcome.
Try this :
CREATE PROCEDURE procCreateDataBase()
BEGIN
DECLARE domainName CHAR(50);
DECLARE cur1 CURSOR FOR SELECT domain FROM databaseX.domainNames;
OPEN cur1;
LOOP
FETCH cur1 INTO domainName;
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS domainName;
END LOOP;
CLOSE cur1;
END;
This is a stored procedure you can call anytime and that will create your databases depending on the domains found, if they don't already exist.

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test_migrate
(
--v_into_table dba_tables.schema#dbprd%TYPE,
--v_from_table dba_tables.table#dbprd%TYPE,
v_gid IN NUMBER
)
IS
BEGIN
select * INTO fx.T_RX_TXN_PLAN
FROM fx.T_RX_TXN_PLAN#dbprd
WHERE gid = v_gid;
--and schema = v_into_table
--and table = v_from_table;
COMMIT;
END;
I thought that SELECT * INTO would create a table in the new database from #dbprd. However, the primary issue is just being able to set these as variables and the goal is to EXEC(INTO_Table,FROM_Table,V_GID) to run the above code.
Error(9,19): PLS-00201: identifier 'fx.T_RX_TXN_PLAN' must be
declared Error(10,5): PL/SQL: ORA-00904: : invalid identifier
If your goal is to copy data from table in "another" database into a table that resides in "this" database (regarding database link you used), then it it INSERT INTO, not SELECT INTO.
For example:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test_migrate (v_gid in number)
IS
BEGIN
insert into fx.t_rx_txn_plan (col1, col2, ..., coln)
select col1, col2, ..., coln
from fx.t_rx_txn_plan#dbprod
where gid = v_gid;
END;
Last sentence you wrote looks like you'd want to make it dynamic, i.e. pass table names and v_gid (whatever that might be; looks like all tables that should be involved into this process have it). That isn't a simple task.
If you plan to use insert into select * from, that's OK but not for production system. What if someone alters a table and adds (or drops) a column or two? Your procedure will automatically fail. Correct way to do it is to enumerate all columns involved, but that requires fetching data from user_tab_columns (or all_ or dba_ version of the same), which complicates it even more.
Therefore, if you want to move data from here to there, why don't you do it using Data Pump Export & Import? Those utilities are designed for such a purpose, and will do the job better than your procedure. At least, I think so.
This way you should be returning a row. If so, add an OUT type parameter to the procedure with
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test_migrate(
--v_into_table dba_tables.schema#dbprd%TYPE,
--v_from_table dba_tables.table#dbprd%TYPE,
i_gid IN NUMBER,
o_RX_TXN_PLAN OUT fx.T_RX_TXN_PLAN#dbprd%rowtype
) IS
BEGIN
SELECT *
INTO RT_RX_TXN_PLAN
FROM fx.T_RX_TXN_PLAN#dbprd
WHERE id = v_gid;
--and schema = v_into_table
--and table = v_from_table;
END;
and call the procedure such as
declare
v_rx_txn_plan fx.T_RX_TXN_PLAN#dbprd%rowtype;
v_gid number:=5345;
begin
test_migrate(v_gid => v_gid, rt_rx_txn_plan => v_rx_txn_plan);
dbms_output.put_line(v_rx_txn_plan.col1);
dbms_output.put_line(v_rx_txn_plan.col2);
end;
to print out the returning values for some columns of the table. to be able to create a new table from this, not SELECT * INTO ... syntax, but
CREATE TABLE T_RX_TXN_PLAN AS
SELECT *
INTO RT_RX_TXN_PLAN
FROM fx.T_RX_TXN_PLAN#dbprd
WHERE ...
is used.
But neither of the cases to issue a COMMIT since there's no DML exists within them.
To create a table you must use the CREATE TABLE statement, and to use any DDL statement in PL/SQL you have to use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test_migrate
(
v_gid IN NUMBER
)
IS
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE FX.T_RX_TXN_PLAN AS
SELECT *
FROM fx.T_RX_TXN_PLAN#dbprd
WHERE gid = :GID'
USING IN v_gid;
END;
I've written a stored procedure which uses a for loop to execute a query for a list of views. It generates a dynamic sql statement for each view inside the for loop and then executes it, which inserts output into a declared temporary table.
The for loop works perfectly and it runs without errors, however if I add a select statement after the END FOR; to get the final output from the temporary table I get the error below. Does anyone have any ideas please?
Error 16/07/2018 10:43:41 0:00:00.007 DB2 Database Error: ERROR [42601] [IBM][DB2/AIX64] SQL0104N An unexpected token "select *" was found following "1; END FOR; ". Expected tokens may include: "<call>". LINE NUMBER=31. SQLSTATE=42601
SQL Code:
BEGIN
DECLARE SQLTEXT varchar(500);
DECLARE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE SESSION.AS_USAGE_RESULTS(
temp table columns
);
FOR v as cur1 cursor for
select distinct viewname,viewschema
from syscat.VIEWS
DO
SET SQLTEXT = 'Dynamic Insert into temp table here'
PREPARE s1 FROM SQLTEXT;
EXECUTE s1;
END FOR;
select *
from SESSION.AS_USAGE_RESULTS;
DROP TABLE SESSION.AS_USAGE_RESULTS;
END
Your mistake is that if you wish to return a result-set from session.as_usage_results, then you must declare a cursor for its select, and open that cursor then end the sproc. This is a FAQ. There are examples in the IBM Db2 Server SAMPLES directory and in the Db2 Knowledge Center.
Inside the sproc, you can either use SELECT ... INTO, or use a select within a cursor, or use a SELECT as part of a SET statement.
You should not drop the session table in the procedure in case the result-set won't be consumed before the table gets dropped. Either drop the session table elsewhere or use an alternative design.
In your example you don't need cursor cur1, so below I show a stilted artificial example of what your might mean. It is artificial because you can see that the session table is also redundant for this example, but it shows the use of the cursor for the result-set.

insert into session.as_usage_results(viewname, viewschema) select viewname, viewschema from syscat.views;
set v_sqltext = 'select * from session.as_usage_results';
prepare s1 from v_sqltext;
open c1;
END

I am completely new to sql and teradata(6weeks). and have been given an assignment, which had little instruction.
(Create a stored procedure that allows a user to select a bat’s manufacturer and (optionally) serial number using a stored procedure. The output should display all of the players who use the bat’s manufacturer. If the serial number is also provided, only display the players who use that bat’s manufacturer and serial number. Make sure you use a CREATE PROCEDURE call and insert this procedure into the existing database. ) this is a database through teradata that has been duplicated into my own database to be edited. This is what I got so far and it keeps returning two errors. I'd love help with a solution and best possible recommendation for learning sql quickly and efficiently. I appreciate the help in advance. and i'm sure this is the ugliest code you've seen, I aplogize. :-D
CREATE PROCEDURE batman(manuf varchar(20), bat_type varchar(4)=null)
DYNAMIC RESULT SETS 2
BEGIN
DECLARE c CURSOR FOR
SELECT playernum
FROM affiliation, bats
WHERE manuf = :manuf;
declare serial cursor for
select playernum
from affiliation
where bat_type=NULL or bat_type=:bat_type
if bat_type=NULL then open c
else open serial;
end if;
END;
The default of a parameter is always NULL, no need to declare that.
You can't compare NULLs using =, must be is null instead.
And there are some missing semicolons...
CREATE PROCEDURE batman(manuf VARCHAR(20), bat_type VARCHAR(4))
DYNAMIC RESULT SETS 1
BEGIN
DECLARE c CURSOR FOR
SELECT playernum
FROM affiliation, bats
WHERE manuf = :manuf;
DECLARE serial CURSOR FOR
SELECT playernum
FROM affiliation
WHERE bat_type IS NULL OR bat_type=:bat_type;
IF bat_type IS NULL THEN OPEN c;
ELSE OPEN serial;
end if;
END;
I have a select statement that needs to look up a customer ID from a customer name. If an ID does not exist for that name, a new record needs to be created in the customer table. this has to be done as part of a select statement (related to the app its being run from).
I tried looking at a UDF that returned either the existing ID or a new ID, before realizing that you can't modify tables from a function.
any idea how to accomplish this?
EDIT:
I think i need to clarify things a bit more. The select statement can and will change on a per-implementation basis. What I'm looking for is a generic way of looking up or creating the customer id (that table and the need to do the lookup does not change) as part of a larger select statement.
the app that is using the sql loads the select statement from a config file, and has 'SELECT' hard coded, so there's no chance of adding an exec before the select etc.
It looks like what I need is something like 'select a.1 (exec dotheLookup(name)) as customerID, a.2 FROM table, but I'm not sure how to go about that.
I suggest you to Create a stored procedure for this. Something like
Create procedure customer
--parameters
AS
Begin
IF exists(Select lookup(customerName) as customerID from table)
BEGIN
--Your select goes here
END
ELSE
BEGIN
--Insert into customer table and return scopeidentity
--Select goes here
END
END
Updated Answer:
You cannot perform data manipulation using select statement.
You could execute a stored procedure before you execute the SELECT statement, the run a function that returns ID from name:
exec CheckForCustomerByNameAndAddIDIfItDoesntExist(customerName)
declare iCustomerID int
select iCustomerID = GetCustomerIDFromName(customerName)
select a.1, a.2, iCustomerID as customerID from table
Something like that
Can you modify the database server? If so, add a linked server pointing to the local server.
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver #server = N'LinkedLocal', #srvproduct=N'', #provider=N'SQLNCLI', #datasrc=N'LocalServerName'
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedsrvlogin #rmtsrvname=N'LinkedLocal',#useself=N'True',#locallogin=NULL,#rmtuser=NULL,#rmtpassword=NULL
Then just run an OPENQUERY that invokes a stored procedure that does your work:
select * from OPENQUERY("LinkedLocal", 'exec Database.Schema.StoredProcedure ''Param1'', ''Param2'')
How do I use a stored procedure to view the entire contents of a table in IBM DB2 (and anything else I guess, as SQL scrpting is the same throughout all of them)?
Thanks :)
In DB2, you must create a cursor that reads data from the table(s) you need and then open it to get the results. I'll give you a sample with no parameters.
CREATE PROCEDURE MY_SCHEMA.SP_SEL_TABLEX()
RESULT SET 1
LANGUAGE SQL
BEGIN
DECLARE C_TABLEX CURSOR FOR
SELECT COL1, COL2
FROM MY_SCHEMA.TABLEX;
OPEN C_TABLEX;
END;
