New in Oracle 12c Release 2 is the ability for scripts to be executed through the Data Guard broker DGMGRL command-line interface very similar to like say in SQL*Plus. DGMGRL commands, SQL commands using the DGMGRL SQL command, and OS commands using the new HOST (or !) capability can be bundled into a script file […]
Oracle 12c Release 2 now provides the ability to reissue the previously executed SQL*Plus commands. This functionality is similar to the shell history command available on the UNIX platform. This feature enables us to run, edit, or delete previously executed SQL*Plus, SQL, or PL/SQL commands from the history list in the current session. We can […]
Data Redaction was introduced in Oracle Database 12c Release 1 (read a note on this) where we could hide or mask sensitive data in tables from non-privileged users. The data was ‘redacted’ at query run time and was stored in the database in its normal non-redacted form. The redaction could be full (no original data […]

In an earlier post I had mentioned one of the new features in Oracle Database 12.2 was the ability to set SGA and PGA memory related parameters even at the individual PDB level. So it enables us to further limit or define the resources which a particular PDB can use and enable a more efficient […]
In the earlier 12.1.0.2 Oracle database version, we could limit the amount of CPU utilization as well as Parallel Server allocation at the PDB level via Resource Plans. Now in 12c Release 2, we can not only regulate CPU and Parallelism at the Pluggable database level, but in addition we can also restrict the amount […]
One of the new multitenancy related features in Oracle 12c Release 2 is Application Containers. In 12c Release 1, we could have a Container database (CDB) host a number of optional pluggable databases or PDBs. Now in 12.2.0.1, the multitenancy feature has been enhanced further and we can now have not only CDBs and PDBs […]
One of the real nice new features in Oracle 12c Release 2 (12.2.0.1) is the ability to create an Oracle Data Guard Standby Database using DBCA (Database Configuration Assistant). This really does simplify the process of creating a standby database as well and automates a number of steps in the creation process which were earlier […]
I recently performed an upgrade of an Oracle 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.2) Grid Infrastructure environment hosted on a RAC Virtual Box environment on my laptop to the latest release 12c Release 2 12.2.0.1.0 version. Here are some points to be noted related to the upgrade process: The Grid Infrastructure 12c Release 2 (12.2) software is […]
Oracle 12c Release 2 (12.2.0.1) was officially released for on-premise deployment yesterday.

The Parallel Upgrade command line utility catctl.pl has a number of changes and enhancements as compared to 12c Release 1 and […]
