Executive Summary
The DBA Editioned Object Summary report is essential for managing Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2+ environments, which use Edition-Based Redefinition (EBR) for online patching. It provides a summary of how many objects exist in each “Edition”. This is critical for monitoring the cleanup process (adop phase=cleanup) and managing the growth of the database.
Business Challenge
- Storage Growth: “Why is the database growing so fast? Are we keeping too many old patch editions?”
- Patching Health: “Did the cleanup phase of the last patch cycle actually remove the obsolete objects?”
- Performance: “Are we suffering from dictionary performance issues due to having 500 old editions?”
Solution
This report summarizes the count of editioned objects (Views, PL/SQL, Synonyms) per edition.
Key Features:
- Edition Name: The name of the patch edition (e.g.,
V_20230101_1200). - Object Count: Number of actual objects vs. “stub” objects.
- Active Status: Identifies the current Run and Patch editions.
Architecture
The report queries OBJ$, USER$, and DBA_USERS.
Key Tables:
OBJ$: The core object table (includes theEDITION_NAMEcolumn).DBA_OBJECTS_AE: The view showing all editioned objects.
Impact
- Space Reclamation: Identifies when it’s safe (and necessary) to run a full cleanup to reclaim space.
- System Hygiene: Ensures the database doesn’t become cluttered with thousands of obsolete object versions.
- Patching Success: Verifies that the Online Patching cycle is completing all its housekeeping tasks.
