sinthea Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I was trying to calculate DBID of oracle database according to the topic http://arjudba.blogspot.com/2008/05/how-to-discover-find-dbid.html and following number 2) mechanism specified there that is using of strings keyword. My unfortunately my oracle database datafile is so big that I could not use strings keyword for searching. I used, strings datafilename_loc. It failed with big file size. What I will do now? How I can open file with strings? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/169438-strings-does-not-work-for-big-files/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
artacus Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Try it from stdin instead. I don't have a datafile handy to try it on, but I'd guess the dbid would be near the start of the file. head -n 100 | strings | grep DBID Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/169438-strings-does-not-work-for-big-files/#findComment-896448 Share on other sites More sharing options...
