Somckit,
DDL statements actually translate into DML against internal tables, so
you will not be able to see them in the redolog, ever. The way to
*detect* changes (i.e. determine the who/what/when of a DDL change) is
using a database level DDL trigger. This is triggered off whenever a DDL
statement is executed and using a combination of inbuilts such as
ORA_SYSEVENT, ORA_DICT_OBJ_TYPE, ORA_DICT_OBJ_NAME, ORA_DICT_OBJ_OWNER
and SYS_CONTEXT values, you can get all the information you want.

Subject: Can't I mine DDL statements from LogMiner?
Oracle version is 9206.
I'm tracking DDL changes by running such a query:
select object_name,to_char(last_ddl_time,'YYYY-MM-DD-HH24:MI:SS'),
timestamp from dba_objects
where last_ddl_time > sysdate-4;
Produces some output like the following:
OBJECT_NAME TO_CHAR(LAST_DDL_TI TIMESTAMP
-------------------- ------------------- -------------------
OBJ1 2005-12-11-03:01:16 2001-02-01:01:07:39
OBJ2 2005-12-11-03:01:16 2001-01-29:20:38:59
I then fire up logminer and load all the logs (3 of them) from before
and after 3:01.
I then run this query.
select sql_redo,to_char(timestamp, 'YYYY-MM-DD-HH24:MI:SS'), operation,
sql_undo from v$logmnr_contents where seg_name like '%OBJ1%';
Produces no output for DDL (there is some for DML though).
I then try this, which produces no output as well.
select sql_redo,to_char(timestamp, 'YYYY-MM-DD-HH24:MI:SS'), operation,
sql_undo from v$logmnr_contents where operation = 'DDL'
Am I missing something? I thought Logminer in 9i could report DDL
changes?
The other question is, is someone already tracking something similar to
this (DDL changes) -- how are you accomplishing this?
Thanks much!!
