You Asked

Tom

Would like to know if there is any script to compare schema's across 2 database, I would want to compare the table name, column name, data type and also the size, if there is any difference, i would want the script to display the db name, table name , field name and data type and length to be displayed.

There can be fields which is in table a of schema a and not in table a of schema b, there can be new fields either ways, or there can be spelling mistakes in field name. The length can change or datatype can be a variant.

Thanks

Sriv

Not that I am aware of -- perhaps something like TOAD would have something.

It would not be hard to do. For example, to find all tables in database A not in B

select * from user_tables
minus
select * from user_tables@b;

To find all tables in database B not in A, just reverse the above.

To diff the tables -- to find column mismatches would be very similar:

for x in ( select a.table_name from user_tables a,
user_tables@b b
where a.table_name = b.table_name )
loop
select column_name, datatype, ... from user_tab_columns
where table_name = x.table_name
MINUS
select column_name, datatype, ... from user_tab_columns@b
where table_name = x.table_name
...
end loop;

Hi tom,

IF we do like this

To find all tables in database A not
in B

select table_name,column_name,column_id from all_tab_columns
where owner = 'PUBS'
MINUS
select table_name,column_name,column_id from all_tab_columns@b
where owner = 'PUBS'


all tables in database B not in A

select table_name,column_name,column_id from all_tab_columns
where owner = 'PUBS'
MINUS
select table_name,column_name,column_id from all_tab_columns@a
where owner = 'PUBS'

will it do for me ?

Script for comparing schemas "compare_schemas.sql"

Logan Palanisamy, April 18, 2002 - 12:49 pm UTC

Hello,

I use the following script to compare two schemas. The only restriction is that they have to be in the same database. What I normally do when I want to compare schmeas in two different database is to do a schema level exp/imp of one of the schemas and have them both in the same db.

May be you can modify the script to compare them directly across DBs.

============== The Script Starts Here ===============
-- compare_schemas.sql

Wow...I figured you'd recommend an Oracle product

Daryl, April 18, 2002 - 3:13 pm UTC

The Oracle Change Management Pack can do all this. It
looks not only at tables, indexes, views, etc., but
also at PL/SQL (and probably Java) in the database, too.
The real trick with CMP is to tell it to ignore things like
storage parameters (schema 1 has x extents; schema 2 has
y extents; CMP will flag it as different). CMP will also
generate the SQL needed to bring the two schemas into sync.

Script for comparing schemas "SchemaDiff.sql"

BroadVision RCHU, April 19, 2002 - 11:06 am UTC

I'm using this one.

/*
This script compares the object definitions in the current schema
to that of a remote schema.
The remote schema is defined using a database link.
THE SCRIPT COMPARES THE FOLLOWING:
- Existence of tables
- Existence of columns
- Column definitions
- Existence of indexes
- Index definitions (column usage)
- Existence of constraints
- Constraint definitions (table, type and reference)
- Constraint column usage (for unique, primary key and foreign keys)
- Check constraint definitions
- Existence of triggers
- Definition of triggers
- Existence of procedure/packages/functions
- Definition of procedures/packages/functions
The script drops and creates a few temporary objects prefixed with
the first 3 letter combination (AAA - ZZZ) that does not conflict with any
existing objects.

Privileges comparision

Logan, December 26, 2004 - 1:35 am UTC

Tom

I have 2 users named A and B.

I want to compare the privileges and roles granted to these 2 users, and display only the differences.

Can you show how I can do this?

Thanks

Using the technique described in 
https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/issue-archive/2005/05-jan/o15asktom-084959.html
Comparing the Contents of Two Tables

this becomes pretty easy....

default_length

A reader, September 01, 2005 - 12:33 pm UTC

what is the use of default_lenght column in user_tab_columns
and why it is different in every schema ?

I mean if I have schema1 and schema2 with exact same table structure , I can have default_legth differnt for
some column

info varchar2(100) default null

entry_date date default sysdate

if I observe default_length in shcema1 the corrosponding value are 5,8

if I observe default_length in schema2 the corrosponding value are 4,7

how come ?

comparing schema data

A reader, February 20, 2006 - 7:37 am UTC

I have two schemas in the same database with exactly
same table structures. I just want to know the
differences in the data of the tables.

Is there a script which can report DATA differences
between two schemas. I dont want to compare anything
else except the table data.

Thanks.

Hidden tables

Prasad Jayakumar, March 19, 2008 - 6:20 am UTC

Hi Tom

Is there any possibility we get atleast one row running the following query?

select table_name from user_tab_columns
minus
select table_name from user_tables

I am not sure how, but I have seen hidden tables in Oracle supplied schema (ORABPEL). If there is a possibility, then compare schema script need to be tweaked. Am I right?

With Regards

I don't know if your compare schema would need to be "tweaked" - so I cannot tell you if you are right or wrong.

(don't forget, recycle bin objects - they do not appear in user_tab_columns but they do in user_tables)


but why would getting at least "one row" be useful here? You could outer join to dual - to make up a row.... but not sure why or how that would be 'useful'

ops$tkyte%ORA10GR2> purge recyclebin;

Recyclebin purged.

More on SchemaDiff.sql?

Lloyd Lunham, April 21, 2008 - 1:16 pm UTC

Any chance of getting the full script of "SchemaDiff.sql"? Looks like it was truncated. From other research, it looks like it might have been derived from an Oracle Magazine "Code of the Week" article in March, 1999. I couldn't determine if that was the original source since Oracle Magazine's archives currently go back only as far as 2003.

found it

How to compare two oracle database schemas in Different oracle versons

krishnakumar, January 01, 2009 - 2:59 am UTC

Hi Tom,
i am new to oracle database, but i have knowledge in SQL query's. i have involved in migration testing in oracle data base. i am using TOAD tool as front end with TNS details. i don't have oracle software in my system. with the help of TNSnames.ora file i am connecting to oracle database. i have database A in oracle 9i and i have database B in oracle 10G. i have to compare the table structure in both database A and B i.e.columns name ,there data type and the length in each table. any new data types replaced for old data types. any data type signature or it will not support in 10g like that.
kindly help me.

Tools for Schema Comparison

Stefan Pflanz, May 22, 2009 - 2:54 pm UTC

If you don't want to use Oracle CMP (in fact a little bit tricky to understand) consider to use PowerDIFF for Oracle, see http://www.orbit-db.com This tool is comprehensible and compares two Oracle databases, database schemas or individual objects - both with respect to structure and/or table/view data. It's fast and reliable and also creates a diff script (to apply diff-and-merging).

A new schema comparison tool from Red Gate

David Atkinson, January 17, 2010 - 5:56 am UTC

At Red Gate we've been developing schema comparison and synchronization tools since 2001. It's only this year (2010) that we've released an Oracle compatible version. This can be downloaded from http://www.red-gate.com/Products/schema_compare_for_oracle/index.htm and is completely free to use during its early access phase. We'd welcome any feedback you may have.

Tom
Would like to know if there is compare of the value of two table & insert it another table.
there is not any common primary key in both the table.
Datatype & size of columns of both the table are same

As bellow the example

TABLE A
123 AB LONDAN
123 AB LONDAN
456 CD US
896 XY KANADA

TABLE B


123 LM LONDON
123 AB LONDAN
896 HK KANADA
793 JK INDIA

Schema comparison -DIY disaster

john hawksworth, April 15, 2011 - 3:43 pm UTC

I tremble and quake at the thought, but I disagree with Tom on this one.

His initial surmise that TOAD has a utility for schema comparison is correct, it does and it's superb. Note that I do not work for Quest (the makers of TOAD) I am just a humble user.

I disagree with Tom about any DIY approach to schema comparison, because an individual simply cannot do the job properly. TOAD's comparison tool has dozens and dozens of options, some of which I did not know existed, despite the fact that I have many years experience of Oracle. These are all easily configurable. My point is, that by purchasing such a tool, one acquires the distilled knowledge of many people, encapsulated in one utility. In a life time of working with Oracle, a sole programmer will never come across all the options imaginable.

This is just a particular case of why productivity tools do what they do. Any tool that gave access to such a wealth of knowledge, easily and at the click of a mouse is to be commended. For this reason, nobody in their right mind writes their own RDBMS, they buy one. Don't for one minute think that because each table and field is the same, it means that two schemas are the same.

This is vital when comparing production schemas, where apparently innocuous differences may have significant impact.

Red Gate's products are also excellent, but I have only used them on SQL Server, and hence can't comment on Oracle. However, if their quality in Oracle matches that of their SQL Server offerings, it ought to be considered.
Tom Kyte
April 15, 2011 - 5:03 pm UTC

I would want to compare the table name, column name, data type and
also the size, if there is any difference, i would want the script to display
the db name, table name , field name and data type and length to be displayed.


given that requirement, it isn't really that hard.

And to update for the year 2011 - there is the change management pack, part of enterprise manager, that does this nowadays as well.


schema

Comparison Logic

Dana, April 18, 2011 - 8:11 am UTC

I am going to take a different viewpoint on this.
The premise I am challenging is that one or another schema is considered "standard". I would consider the scripts to be the standard; the valid should be comparing schema to script.
Many times, it is assumed that production is the standard, but often production deviates from the original DDL scripts. So unless the scripts are kept up to date and annotated, the validity of the comparison is suspect.

Difficult to maintain scripts

Observer, June 02, 2011 - 5:52 am UTC

I think when the application is in development phase, when too many changes and enhancements are going on, script maintenance can become not only difficult but can also slow down the development process. That is when we would require these comparison scripts and toad and all, to help keep the environments in sync.

And I don't despise Toad at all. Purists may think whatever they want to, but toad has many times helped me save lot of effort.
Tom Kyte
June 02, 2011 - 9:08 am UTC

guess what your JOB IS. It is "software developer". It is not "let's hack together something we may or may not be able to figure out what changes we made or why - developer"


Slowing the development process - so as to maintain a clear picture of the decisions being made and why they are made - is a good thing, not a bad thing.

You know the old saying about haste.

Haste makes...

Dana, June 02, 2011 - 3:47 pm UTC

Haste makes tuning in production the normal procedure.
Where, usually, those who designed the schema, don't go because they don't do production support. They're "design" people.
