Creating Additional Data Dictionary Structures

Oracle supplies other scripts that create additional structures you can use in managing your database and creating database applications. These scripts are listed in Table B-2.

Table B-2 Creating Additional Data Dictionary Structures

Script Name	Needed For	Run By	Description
`catblock.sql`	Performance management	`SYS`	Creates views that can dynamically display lock dependency graphs
`catexp7.sql`	Exporting data to Oracle7	`SYS`	Creates the dictionary views needed for the Oracle7 Export utility to export data from the Oracle Database in Oracle7 Export file format
`caths.sql`	Heterogeneous Services	`SYS`	Installs packages for administering heterogeneous services
`catio.sql`	Performance management	`SYS`	Allows I/O to be traced on a table-by-table basis
`catoctk.sql`	Security	`SYS`	Creates the Oracle Cryptographic Toolkit package
`catqueue.sql`	Advanced Queuing		Creates the dictionary objects required for Advanced Queuing
`catrep.sql`	Oracle Replication	`SYS`	Runs all SQL scripts for enabling database replication
`catrman.sql`	Recovery Manager	`RMAN` or any user with `GRANT_RECOVERY_CATALOG_OWNER` role	Creates recovery manager tables and views (schema) to establish an external recovery catalog for the backup, restore, and recovery functionality provided by the Recovery Manager (RMAN) utility
`dbmsiotc.sql`	Storage management	Any user	Analyzes chained rows in index-organized tables
`dbmspool.sql`	Performance management	`SYS` or `SYSDBA`	Enables DBA to lock PL/SQL packages, SQL statements, and triggers into the shared pool
`userlock.sql`	Concurrency control	`SYS` or `SYSDBA`	Provides a facility for user-named locks that can be used in a local or clustered environment to aid in sequencing application actions
`utlbstat.sql` and `utlestat.sql`	Performance monitoring	`SYS`	Respectively start and stop collecting performance tuning statistics
`utlchn1.sql`	Storage management	Any user	For use with the Oracle Database. Creates tables for storing the output of the `ANALYZE` command with the `CHAINED ROWS` option. Can handle both physical and logical rowids.
`utlconst.sql`	Year 2000 compliance	Any user	Provides functions to validate that `CHECK` constraints on date columns are year 2000 compliant
`utldtree.sql`	Metadata management	Any user	Creates tables and views that show dependencies between objects
`utlexpt1.sql`	Constraints	Any user	For use with the Oracle Database. Creates the default table (`EXCEPTIONS`) for storing exceptions from enabling constraints. Can handle both physical and logical rowids.
`utlip.sql`	PL/SQL	`SYS`	Used primarily for upgrade and downgrade operations. It invalidates all existing PL/SQL modules by altering certain dictionary tables so that subsequent recompilations will occur in the format required by the database. It also reloads the packages `STANDARD` and `DBMS_STANDARD`, which are necessary for any PL/SQL compilations.
`utlirp.sql`	PL/SQL	`SYS`	Used to change from 32-bit to 64-bit word size or vice versa. This script recompiles existing PL/SQL modules in the format required by the new database. It first alters some data dictionary tables. Then it reloads the packages `STANDARD` and `DBMS_STANDARD`, which are necessary for using PL/SQL. Finally, it triggers a recompilation of all PL/SQL modules, such as packages, procedures, and types.
`utllockt.sql`	Performance monitoring	`SYS` or `SYSDBA`	Displays a lock wait-for graph, in tree structure format
`utlpwdmg.sql`	Security	`SYS` or `SYSDBA`	Creates PL/SQL functions for default password complexity verification. Sets the default password profile parameters and enables password management features.
`utlrp.sql`	PL/SQL	`SYS`	Recompiles all existing PL/SQL modules that were previously in an `INVALID` state, such as packages, procedures, and types.
`utlsampl.sql`	Examples	`SYS` or any user with DBA role	Creates sample tables, such as `emp` and `dept`, and users, such as `scott`
`utlscln.sql`	Oracle Replication	Any user	Copies a snapshot schema from another snapshot site
`utltkprf.sql`	Performance management	`SYS`	Creates the TKPROFER role to allow the TKPROF profiling utility to be run by non-DBA users
`utlvalid.sql`	Partitioned tables	Any user	Creates tables required for storing output of `ANALYZE TABLE ...VALIDATE STRUCTURE` of a partitioned table
`utlxplan.sql`	Performance management	Any user	Creates the table `PLAN_TABLE`, which holds output from the `EXPLAIN PLAN` statement
