ACE Director Alum Daniel Morgan, founder of Morgan's Library, is scheduling
complimentary technical Workshops on Database Security for the first 30
Oracle Database customers located anywhere in North America, EMEA, LATAM, or
APAC that send an email to
asra_us@oracle.com. Request a Workshop for
your organization today.
Purpose
Used to provide an interface to determine if the in-flight transaction on a now unavailable session committed or not, and if the last call on that session completed or not.
All of its functionality with the exception of a single object was split out into a new package named DBMS_APP_CONT_ADMIN and the documentation was partially update to reflect the change but the required docs for DBMS_APP_CONT_ADMIN are missing.
Will be opening an SR later this evening. This looks like more of the work of Oracle's Executive VP of Product Renaming.
err_server_ahead: the server is ahead, so the transaction is an old transaction and must have already been committed.
-14951
err_client_ahead: the client is ahead of the server. This can only happen if the server has been flashbacked or the ltxid is corrupted. The outcome cannot be determined.
