Bret,
This opens a new question. Consider/Assume i got a window of 2 hour for the database in which i am going to perform the alter on one table (consider table is referenced in more than 500 + objects and alter statement execution will take only 15 mins) and business would like to have the referenced objects in renormalized state before handing over to app/business team .
I have 1hr.45 mins window time left to with me to perform operations ( re normalization and full backup)
1) How to re normalize all referenced objects manually
2) Is there any way to find the list of objects referenced to this object ? . If so how to find it
this will help from log full issues/minimize logsegment utilization , During operating hours . And during window time i can make database to "trunc log on checkpoint and select into bulk copy". So that my alter or re normalization won't use much log space) ..
Once all my activity completed i can revert back DB option changes and take full DB backup and will handover the DB for processing . So that application can uses the objects and logsegment usage will be as before ( Ex . for this case 150MB / hour)
