    publish-05 service extremely slow

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 20

    Problem Symptoms:
    publish-05 (Delete ALEPH published records) takes over 12 hours to delete a publishing set of 175,000 records.

    Cause:
    Uncertain.

    Resolution:
    If there is just a single publishing set -- or two or three --, do util a/17/1 for the z00p instead of running publish-05.

    If there are more, do util a/17/14 for the z00p to check for missing Oracle indexes.

    Additional Information

    1. publish-05 is of use only in the case where there are certain publishing sets which need to be preserved. If the z00p records for *all* of the publishing sets are to be deleted, one can do util a/17/1 for the z00p instead. In this case, publish-05 will not need to be run prior to running publish-04 (Initial Publishing Process).


    2. One site got the following "resource busy" error in trying to do util a/17/1 for the z00p:

    aleph_admin@ALEPH20> 07:47:49 aleph_admin@ALEPH20> DROP TABLE XXX50.Z00P
    *
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified or timeout expired

    "Resource busy" issues are addressed in KB's:

    8192-7895 ("Resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified") and
    8192-7896 ("Resource busy ..." -- can't make it stop).
