Oracle Data compare Utility

I'm looking for a tool which can compare datas ( data level ) between 2 oracle databases !

Would appreciate very much if you could recommend me a tool

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

If you want to make sure that data is the same between
2 databases, the fastest way is probably to clone one
database to another. Unless you have a small db, I
think this is the fastest way.

If you want something to compare table structures, etc,
there are a number of tools available. One of them is
at http://www.ezsql.net.

If you want to compare the data just one table at a time,
do it like this : (you don't need a tool!)

select * from mytable
MINUS
select * from mytable@remote_db;

If you don't get any rows, then reverse it like this :

select * from mytable@remote_db
MINUS
select * from mytable;

If you STILL don't get any rows, then your tables are identical.

Hi,

I have 100 tables to compare, column by column

and I can't clone the database

Best regards

Hi,

I am doing a similar work by procedural template and then writting a procedure for each table. My template does sequentail comparison and inserts column name & two values for columns having different values.

I cound not find any thing better.

In case you need details mail me at kailashkr@yahoo.com.

Hi,

OK, do this :

select 'Select * from '|| owner || '.' || table_name || chr(13) || chr(10) ||
'MINUS' || chr(13) || chr(10) ||
'Select * from '|| owner || '.' || table_name || '@remote_db;' || chr(13) || chr(10) ||
'Select * from '|| owner || '.' || table_name || '@remote_db' || chr(13) || chr(10) ||
'MINUS' || chr(13) || chr(10) ||
'Select * from '|| owner || '.' || table_name || ';'
from dba_tables
where owner = 'SYSTEM'

(obviously, you'll have to substitute, or leave out the owner,
and substitue the correct name for your db_link).

Spool the output to a text file, then run it. It will produce rows
for tables with identical structure but different rows.
