dont know but maybe you could put a trigger that does your performance test
on a table and run it on select.

Hi,
is there a trick that will let one run a DML procedure inside a SELECT
query?
The idea is to run a simple performance check from our nagios-based
central monitoring
tool, and the plugin does not speak anything other than "select a single
value from
somewhere".
I can schedule the DML within the database and let nagios pick up the
result
but would also like the nagios to be able to run it on demand.
So I would have to set up a select that calls a function that calls a
procedure.
The procedure does Insert-Update-Delete, returns its runtime to the
function
(or writes into a table or wherever I want), and the select gets it from
there.
The problem is, I don't get any return values.
(Oracle version is 11.2.0.4 or 12.1.0.2)
create or replace function getruntime
return number
IS
dmlruntime number(8);
begin
dmltest(dmlruntime);
return dmlruntime;
end getruntime;
/
select getruntime from dual;
The value is always null.
Am I overlooking something simple here? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks
Ingrid
