This is a fairly general script that can be used at any time to recompile all existing invalid PL/SQL modules in a database If run as one of the last steps during migration/upgrade/downgrade this script will validate all PL/SQL modules (i.e. procedures, functions, packages, triggers, types, views, libraries) during the migration step itself. + Any other script called within UTLRP.SQL? Yes. It invokes utlrcmp.sql Where are these SCRIPTS located? ============================ The scripts are found in the standard admin directory of the Oracle Home. $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin Which script is better? ================= -> UTLRP.SQL - Validates all invalid objects and can be run anytime. (this in-turn is called by utlirp.sql) What is invalid ? you can find out by doing this In sqlplus : 15:03...
