DST_UPGRADE_INSERT_CONV

Property Description
Parameter type Boolean
Default value true
Modifiable ALTER SESSION, ALTER SYSTEM
Range of values true | false
Basic No

DST_UPGRADE_INSERT_CONV specifies whether or not internal operators will be allocated on top of TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE (TSTZ) columns of tables which have not been upgraded during the upgrade window of daylight saving time patching for TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE data.

Values:

When DST_UPGRADE_INSERT_CONV is set to true during the upgrade window of the daylight saving time patching process:

Note:

Oracle strongly recommends that this parameter is set to true throughout the upgrade window of the daylight saving time patching process. This parameter reduces the performance impact since indexes on TSTZ columns will be disabled whenever internal operators are allocated. If the parameter is set to false, then indexes will be used and this may affect performance of queries against TSTZ data during the DST upgrade window. Turning off this parameter during the upgrade window may corrupt data on disk when DMLs occur for tables with TSTZ data which have not yet been upgraded.
