Is there any query that can make me sur and help me to see the value of events '1460' ?
Thank you.

Is there any query that can make me sur and help me to see the value of events '1460' ?No one, because you turned off the trace level.

Help with "alter system set events = '1000 trace name ERRORSTACK level 3'"

Hello.
I am trying to find out wich sql code is creating the error ORA-01000 in my application (database release is 9.2.0.7). I have read this http://www.orafaq.com/node/758 and there they suggest doing this:
Sometimes you will need to get a full stack trace of the problem by setting a trace for ORA-1000 as in:
alter system set events = '1000 trace name ERRORSTACK level 3'
or...
alter session set events = '1000 trace name ERRORSTACK level 3'
Then set open_cursors to a low enough number to catch the open cursor voilator in your net.I have no idea about this traces, so these are my questions:
1. Do those commands force a trace every time the ORA-01000 errors rises in every session? (I have forced the ORA-01000 error in one sqplusl session after I wrote "alter session set events = '1000 trace name ERRORSTACK level 3'" in another sqlplus session)
2. What does level 3 mean?
3. I see that in the dump/user directory I have several trace files, how can I know which error traces are enabled in my db?
4. How do I disable the traces once I find out to solve the problem?
5. How do I identify in the traces the ORA-1000 error?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for all the answers.
What am I doing bad? I have tried ti find out what traces are enabled, and there seems to be none.

Enabling alter system set events '1422 trace name errorstack level 1'

Hello, please i need some help:
I need to set events '1422 trace name errorstack level 1',
where does this sentence generate the trace logs?.
Once collected the information how do i disable it?
Thanks in advance.

Normally user dumps are written to the udump database parameter destination. See v$spparameter or v$parameter.
You can set the level to "0" (zero) to set tracing off.

Alter system set events

Hi all,
I'm using a 10.2.0.4 Oracle version.
My colleague active trace generation using: alter system set events '942 trace name errorstack level 3';
How can I know if this is active now? And, How can I deactivate it?
Regards,

How can I know if this is active now?To get all events set at system level, try and check trace file created in USER_DUMP_DEST directory:
alter system set events 'immediate trace name events level 4';
And, How can I deactivate it?Try:
alter system set events '942 trace name errorstack off';

Alter system set events Question

Version 10202 on AIX
sql> alter system set events '4030 trace name heapdump level 536870917; name errorstack level 3';
Questions about this statement..
what this command is doing, i guess creating tracefile for event 4030...& the location of trace file would be the current direcotry?
& how to setup same kind of event trace for other events, any tips....& what to check in tracefile for problem?

The values for level I have record are 1, 2, 3, 8, and 32 so I am guessing the number shown is the address of a specific heap to be dumped. The address of a heap would potentially change with a change in the shared pool storage parameters. Where did you get the address value?
The dump should go to the user background dump destination and not the current directory.
PS - if you have metalink look at document: #218105.1 Introduction to ORACLE Diagnostic EVENTS

How to scan 'immediate trace name SYSTEMSTATE level 10' trace files?

Hi ,my 20 TB of database is hanging and my manager told me to run the following system state dump and anaylse the trace file to see which processes etc are hanging the database.
SQL>alter session set events 'immediate trace name SYSTEMSTATE level 10';
I got 2 trace files which are quite large....not sure what to look into.....can anybody plz suggest what to see if in them if database is not responsing
Thanks
gagan

If you dump a couple of hanganalyze every 60 seconds or so. You will be able to see wait chains and identify sessions that are progressing(slow) and those that aren't(hung). Then you can reference this information with the process information in the system state dump. A level 3 or 4 is ok for what you want. Still, if you are not sure where to look in the first place, best to log a SR with Oracle.

Is it risky to use statement : "alter session set events"

Hi guys,
I am extracting data from cxml documents.
I had to run the following code "EXECUTE IMMEDIATE ('alter session set events ''31156 trace name context forever, level 2'''); " to disable the DTD validation...b4 running any xml extract function on it.
Example:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_test (
p_cxml IN CLOB
RETURN BOOLEAN
AS
l_payload varchar2(100);
l_cXML sys.xmltype := sys.xmltype.createXML(p_cxml);
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE ('alter session set events ''31156 trace name context forever, level 2''');
SELECT EXTRACTVALUE(l_cXML,'/cXML/@payloadID')
INTO l_payload
FROM DUAL;
RETURN TRUE;
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (l_payload);
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS
THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (SQLCODE || ' - '||SQLERRM);
RETURN FALSE;
END;
The vlaue of the parameter p_cxml could be
p_cXML clob:=
'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

MY QUESTION IS...
Is there any risk Involved to Using the

Any Help will be greatly appreciated.

Most "set events" are workarounds or needed for Oracle support to do some debugging. Using them is at your own risk, and probably not supported by Oracle if you get into trouble.

"Alter system set command" in a RAC database!!

Hi, all.
The database is (10.2.0.2.0) 2- node RAC database on 32-bit windows 2003
EE SP1.
I issued the following command on Node 1 database.
--> Alter system set db_block_buffers= xxx sid='rac1';
I was able to see "PE enqueue" in top 5 wait event section from an AWR report.
In addition, I was able to find "PZ99","PZ98" process dump file in BDUMP.
Soon later, I could find CKPT and DBWR hung.
Is there anyone who experienced this issue?
Thanks and Regards.

Question on alter system set cluster_database = true

11.2.0.2.0 windows 2008
doing a restore to a development RAC I noticed the following. I took the database out of cluster mode on one instance
alter system set cluster_database=false scope=spfile sid='PRD1';
shutdown, start up, do the restore, all good, I go to set cluster_Database=true but had issue instance would only start on one node, I reviewed my notes and found problem was when I set cluster_Database back to true I had typed
alter system set cluster_database=true scope=spfile sid='*';
instead of
alter system set cluster_database=true scope=spfile sid='PRD1';
So issue fixed.
I retested and confirmed '*' wont take. Ive seen many examples of '*' working online and I am sure I have used '*' many times so had just typed it off my head. Anyone explain? probably quotes or something.

Any chance there are multiple lines for cluster_database in the spfile ?I had thought maybe this, but confirmed no, it was a fresh build anyway that I was restoring to.
>
- Dump the spfile to a pfile ... edit ... recreate the spfile on all nodes.
>
Im not sure what this will achieve? the spfile is shared on the ASM.
>
As the cluster_database=true is a parameter to enable the RAC configuration. As you typed sid='*' it will try to enable the cluster_database parameter in all the instances(nodes) as it is RAC.
In your case as you did on a single node by specifiying the sid name it will work as it will look only for that sid and enable that particular node.
>
I find this hard to read but I think this misinterprets as well.
Thanks for the contribution. I think Ive found the solution
the asterisk doesnt apparently mean actually "all instances", from here
http://www.comp.dit.ie/btierney/oracle11gdoc/rac.111/b28254/admin.htm#BCEFICEE
and
"Setting SPFILE Parameter Values for Oracle Real Application Clusters"
-- this is a good example of what happened to me
>
*.OPEN_CURSORS=500
prod1.OPEN_CURSORS=1000
Note:
The value before the dot in an SPFILE entry identifies the instance to which the particular parameter value belongs. When an asterisk precedes the dot, the value is applied to all instances that do not have a subsequent, individual value listed in the SPFILE.
For the instance with the Oracle system identifier (SID) prod1, the OPEN_CURSORS parameter is set to 1000 even though it has a database-wide setting of 500. Parameter file entries that have the asterisk (*) wildcard character only affect the instances without an instance-specific entry. This gives you control over parameter settings for instance prod1. These two types of settings can appear in any order in the parameter file.
If another DBA runs the following statement, then Oracle updates the setting on all instances except the instance with SID prod1:
ALTER SYSTEM SET OPEN_CURSORS=1500 sid='*' SCOPE=MEMORY;
>
so when I was on node 1 and ran it for *, I was setting it for all the nodes except the node I was on which holds true from what Ive seen. I'll remember that one.

Alter system set shared_pool_size extremely slow.

I am trying to increase my shared_pool_size from 60m to 200m by simply typing alter system set shared_pool_size=200m;
I did alter system flush shared_pool; before to clear out the current shared_pool.
I'm on 9i and my SGA_MAX_SIZE is 3g and I have plenty room to grow.
show sga
Total System Global Area 3222769016 bytes
Fixed Size 744824 bytes
Variable Size 2382364672 bytes
Database Buffers 838860800 bytes
Redo Buffers 798720 bytes
My event in v$session_wait is background parameter adjustment.
Any help would be appreciated. I know that I can bounce the server and let it read it from the init.ora. However, I'm trying to fix some current 4031s in my shared pool. The flush did fix them temporarily.

Are you sure your instance was in the state you thought it was ? This is what you reported from show sga:
Total System Global Area 3222769016 bytes
Fixed Size                    744824 bytes
Variable Size             2382364672 bytes
Database Buffers           838860800 bytes
Redo Buffers                  798720 bytesYou say your shared_pool_size is 60M and you want to grow it to 200M, but the Variable Size in the output above suggests that your shared pool had already grown to about 2.3 GB, so your command would have been trying to shrink it quite dramatically. (And 9i isn't very good at shrinking the shared pool because of the problems of pinned and "KEEP"ed objects in the library cache.
Things to check (from another session):
v$sga_current_resize_ops to see if your resize operation is still running, and what it's trying to do.
v$sga_resize_ops to see i f your resize operation completed some time ago - leaving your session stuck somewhere else. (There's a convenient query I wrote against this view published here: http://jonathanlewis.wordpress.com/2007/04/16/sga-resizing/ )
v$session_wait (for the resize session) to see if the session is waiting or working
v$sesstat (for the resize session) to see if it gives you any clues about current activity

Alter system set control_files

when we use this command to multiplex the control files
should we list all the current controls files as well the copied once If yes ,should i performe alter database backup controlfile to trace command ?
Thanks in Advance

If you are working in Oracle8i you can not apply that exact command. That exact command is applicable from Oracle9i. I clarify: The comand ALTER SYSTEM SET ... exists prior to 9i but in 8i that parameter is not dinamic. In order to modify that parameter you have to do so:
1.- Realize what controlfiles you have
2.- Apply the command with the controlfiles that you have additioning the new controlfiles to duplicate. You have to apply this command with SCOPE=SPFILE;
3.- Shutdown the database
4.- Copy the controlfiles with OS
5.- Start the database

ALTER SYSTEM SET SGA_TARGET

Hi,

Thanks again.Not sure I understand your question. If you set SGA_TARGET with SCOPE=MEMORY or BOTH, it should be in effect immediately.
