Simplifying DBA tasks with Blitz Report

Avatar photoCustomer June 23, 2022 at 6:30 am

As an EBS Apps DBA, I rely on a large set of diagnostic SQL queries (AWR, session details, etc.) currently scattered across text files. I need a tool that can centralize this toolkit within EBS, allowing quick execution without manual database logins.

      Blitz Report is ideally suited for this need, offering a way to seamlessly incorporate your custom DBA toolkit, moving beyond text documents. It allows you to execute queries directly from the EBS forms interface, removing the need to navigate to the OAM page or manually log into the database using SQL*Plus.

      We rely heavily on AWR reports for performance analysis, especially since upgrading to a multitenant database architecture. Can Blitz Report handle AWR data collection efficiently within this new architecture?

    • Support June 26, 2022 at 9:15 pm  

      Yes, Blitz Report provides a comprehensive suite of AWR and foundation (FND) reports as part of its Database Health and Tuning capabilities. Importantly, the updated DBA AWR Blitz Reports now work with pluggable databases (PDBs), adjusting for how AWR data is stored and accessed in container databases (CDBs).

      We often need to verify if specific patches have been applied correctly after an ADOP cycle in 12.2. Is there a simple way to report on patch status using Blitz Report?

    • Support June 29, 2022 at 6:08 pm  

      You can create a custom report in Blitz Report specifically utilizing the AD_PATCH.IS_PATCH_APPLIED function. This allows you to quickly check the status (APPLIED or NOT APPLIED) for specified bug numbers across your application tops without needing to log in separately to the database or run complex SQL manually.

      If I create a new diagnostic query, how does Blitz Report ensure that this valuable asset isn’t duplicated or lost within the team?

    • Support July 2, 2022 at 4:23 pm  

      Blitz Report provides full version control and audit comments with every report modification and migration. This structure keeps your DBA reports organized and ensures consistency, especially crucial when working within a team environment. You can save and categorize your custom reports for quick future access.

      Finally, we need to extract massive volumes of configuration data (BR100s) during our upcoming upgrade. Can Blitz Report help streamline this requirement?

    • Support July 4, 2022 at 10:53 pm  

      Absolutely. Blitz Report includes a project implementation and upgrade toolkit specifically designed for managing these challenges. This toolkit offers automated BR100 extracts for setup and data migration, and supports time-critical reports geared towards mass exporting volume data.
