Re: Three is the number, the number shall be three ...




To be sure, to be sure, to be sure

Was the developers name in the script?  Does it look suspiciously Irish?
It the database ever referred to as O'Oracle by chance?

Might anyone care to wager why a developer at Oracle would use 3
iterations of flushing the shared_pool during execution of the
jserver.sql script in creation of the JServer subsequent to database
creation?

Possible reasons:

1. Developer is a Huge Monty Python fan.
2. 4 isn't prime
3. 42 was deemed to be excessive
4. 1 and 2 iterations were simply no enough - tested and 4th iteration
gained nothing.

Its not like its a routine where the code examines v$sgastat or anything.
Its just 3 statements.

158  dbms_output.put_line('flush shared_pool');
159  execute immediate 'alter system flush shared_pool';
160  execute immediate 'alter system flush shared_pool';
161  execute immediate 'alter system flush shared_pool';

humorous comments appreciated.
