Meaning of Oracle Key Statistics - 0 views

  • Statistics are somewhat fallible in that they are seldom 100 percent accurate, but in most cases they do sufficiently indicate what was intended. Be sure you understand what each statistic represents and the units used (there is a big difference between microseconds and centiseconds).
  • Time-breakdown statistics (Time Model) make it significantly easier to determine the type of operations that are consuming resources in the database.
  • DB time: Time spent by all user processes in the database (that is,. non-idle wait time + CPU time).

  • DB CPU: Time spent by all user processes on the CPU, in Oracle code. On most systems, the majority of time will be spent in DB CPU, SQL execute elapsed time, or PL/SQL execution elapsed time (and possibly Java). Time spent in parse and connection management should be low, so if the levels indicate a high percentage of DB time, a problem exists in the relevant area. You can use this data to correlate with Top 5 Timed Events and Load Profile.
  • Database time (DB time) is an important time-based statistic: it measures the total time spent in the database by active sessions (that is, foreground user processes either actively working or actively waiting in a database call). DB time includes CPU time, I/O time, and other non-idle wait time.
  • Because DB time represents the sum of the time that all sessions spend in database calls, it can easily exceed the elapsed wall-clock time.
  • The objective of tuning an Oracle system could be stated as reducing the time that users spend in performing actions in the database, or simply reducing DB time.
  • Wait time is artificially inflated when the host is CPU bound because the wait time includes the actual time spent waiting (for example, waiting for a disk I/O), as well as the time spent by the process in the OS run-queue waiting to be rescheduled.
  • Therefore, when the host is CPU bound, it is important to reduce CPU utilization before addressing wait-related problems, because otherwise you may be addressing the wrong problem.
  • You can use ASH data to estimate DB time when the actual DB time is not available—for example, if a session has exited. Because ASH samples active sessions every second, you can estimate DB time (in seconds) to be the number of ASH samples counted.
  • V$OSSTAT is OS-related resource utilization data that the Oracle server collects. The statistics available vary by platform. You can use V$OSSTAT to determine CPU utilization (BUSY_TICKS and IDLE_TICKS), and also compare this to the host's CPU utilization statistics. Also look for high OS_CPU_WAIT_TIME, which may indicate the host is CPU bound.
  • V$OSSTAT statistics can be compared with the Time Model statistics, for example to determine how much of the total CPU used on the host is attributable to this instance: DB CPU / BUSY_TICKS.
  • note that the units for these two statistics differ.
  • In 10g, each wait event (V$SYSTEM_EVENT) is classified into one of nine wait classes: Application, Commit, Concurrency, Configuration, Network, Other, System I/O, User I/O, and Idle. The class names are reasonably self-explanatory except Other, which is a catchall bucket for wait events that should not ever contribute any significant wait time.

Oracle Critical Patch Update - October 2009 - 0 views

  •  
    A Critical Patch Update is a collection of patches for multiple security vulnerabilities. It also includes non-security fixes that are required (because of interdependencies) by those security patches. Critical Patch Updates are cumulative, except as noted below, but each advisory describes only the security fixes added since the previous Critical Patch Update. Thus, prior Critical Patch Update Advisories should be reviewed for information regarding earlier accumulated security fixes.

Oracle OS statistics - 0 views

  •  
    The speed of disk access, the backlog of CPU enqueues, network latency and RAM swapping can all be the root cause of an Oracle performance problem, and no amount of tuning can fix a problem that is at the OS layer, external to Oracle. Oracle has two main ways to collect OS information...
