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 the EDITION_NAME column).
  • 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.
