Awr and dba_feature_usage_statistics

Hi Gurus.
I found below important information about the license.
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/license.102/b14199/options.htm#CIHJJBGA
It says that to use AWR features(to access v$active_session_history, dba_hist_xxxxxxx, oracle_home/rdbms/admin/awr*.sql, etc...), we need to extra license, correct?
after I installed enterprise edition and set up EM( not grid ) for test, I have questions
1. I checked 'remove access' on the management pack access screen of EM's setup menu.
but still I can find all views(dba_hist_xxx, v$active_session_history, etc..) about AWR.
is it correct?
2. I ran a $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/awrrpt.sql script, but still I can find that the value of column 'Currently_Used' of the name 'Automatic Workload Repository' from the view 'dba_feature_usage_statistics' is still 'FALSE'.
is it correct?
thanks.

is it correct?Yes. It only stops the display in EM. Since some of these views are also used for other things internally, it does not remove them. It's up to you to NOT access the views.

How to use awr and addm reports

Hi,
to use awr and addm reports does we should have separate license or oracle server software license is enough.
which tool do we use to read this awr and addm reports in real time.
please give your valuable suggestions.
thank you!

Seeing as you seem to want to continue the discussion on someone else's old thread rather than your own one
AWR files in oracle
If i don't then it is difficult to find the queries thata re related to my application as most of those are the sysqueries, i just need schema specific queries in the SQL ordered by Elapsed Time section. Perhaps you are using the wrong tool?
A system-level report like AWR or ADDM is no use to you as it seems your application code is not significant at the system level.
You might want to consider tracing the sessions from your application using client_id or module to identify sessions belonging to your application then possibly use TRCSESS and TKPROF.

AWR and ADDM in general

Hi,
where can I find good easy material on net fro AWR and ADDM with examples and scenarios.
Thanks

Once you've run the ADDM report, I don't think you need any help deciphering it, it's pretty straight forward. The only question you need to ask is whether the recommendation is significant.
For AWR interpretation, this is largely the same as Statspack. In addition to the links provided by others above, you may find this resource useful:

Support for AWR and/or SR2???

Will Aperture soon add support for AWR and/or SR2 files (generated by the Sony DSLR-A100)? What about Photoshop, for that matter?

No, we have consolidated on the Apache XML/XSL stuff. You are free to use
whatever other parser you would like however. The Sun XML pkg should work
fine.

I think you're a little confused about what "Open Source" means. Itdoesn't mean "unsupported." If you want support then you need to pay forit,
just like any software. One of the advantages of open source software is
that you aren't tied to a single vendor for your support - anyone with the
appropriate skills can take the source code and

Roles and Privileges for 10g AWR and ASH reports

Are there specific roles and privileges are required for one to run AWR and ASH reports for users who don't have DBA roles? If so, I would like to know about them.

I think sysdba privilege need to run AWR report.
Also check, how privilege is granted to PERFSTAT user in $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/spcuser.sql, you might get some clue!!!
Cheer,

Enable awr and tkprof for particular sid

Hi all,
how to enable awr and tkprof for particular sid.
it is very urgent
Thanks
mano

Trace a session.
1)Logout all sessions from the database
2)Login to application (ensure that only one session is available)
3)sqlplus trace/trace@026
4)check the sid and serial# of the session from v$session
Use the following query
SQL> select username,to_char(logon_time,'DD-MON-YYYY HH:MI:SS') from v$session where username='<db username>' order by logon_time;
SQL>exec sys.dbms_system.set_sql_trace_in_session(sid,serial#,TRUE);
5)now execute the report/transaction.
6)once the activity is over
SQL>exec sys.dbms_system.set_sql_trace_in_session(sid,serial,FALSE);
7)Now the trace file will be available in the udump folder of the database ip 10.44.0.26
Userid/password: trace/trace
The trace wil be available in /oracle/admin/orcl/udump
8)To find the name of the trace file use the below query
select spid from v$process where addr=(select paddr from v$session where sid=<enter the SID>);
This will give the name of the file
If you are not able to identify the trace file then please remove all files in udump before starting trace.
9) ftp the trace fil to ur local pc and issue the tkprof command
TKPROF <trace file (like D:\orcl_8853.trc)> D:\trace.txt explain=Oracle username/password (application user) sort=(prsela,exeela,fchela)
This will give trace file in readable format(you need to have 10g client on your pc for tkprof to work)

Privilege to create AWR and Statspack report to normal user

Hello,
I want to give right to one of the database user to create STATSPACK report in one database (no license there) and and to generate AWR report in other (licensed diagnostic+tuning pack).
Is there any privilege which I can give to create these reports only. I mean on a safe side ...
@?/rdbms/admin/spreport privilege to generate STATSPACK
@?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt privilege to generate AWR report.
Thanks a lot.

SQL Version Count in AWR and Child Cursor

Hi,
In 11.1.0.7, what is SQL Version count in AWR report? What does it mean? and how oracle does this version count? How do we define child cursor?
Thanks

Hi,
when you issue a SQL statement, the database searches the library cache to find a cursor with matching SQL text. Then it can happen that even though the text matches, there are some other differences that prevent you from using existing cursor (e.g. different optimizer settings, different NLS settings, different permissions etc.). In such cases, a new child cursor is created. So basically child cursors are different versions of the same SQL statement.
If you have SQL statements with thousands of versions, this could mean a problem for your shared pool (child cursors taking up lots of space and causing fragmentation), as well as a potential for performance problems due to plan instability (if the same SQL text is parsed to a new plan every time, sooner or later it will be a bad plan). That's why AWR report has this list.
According to Oracle support, up to a couple of hundreds versions doesn't indicate a problem (cursor sharing mechanism isn't perfect), but when you have thousands or tens of thousands of versions, you should check your cursor sharing settings (first of all, CURSOR_SHARING parameter).
Best regards,
Nikolay

Anyone actually implement 10g AWR and ASM?

in 9i and before, we use statspack to monitor performance. in 10g, it provides automatic workload repository. Does anyone use it and get rid of statspack?
Moreover, anyone implement automatic storage management? such as create diskgroup dg1 normal redunduncy. Does it lower the performance?
thanks

hi
i used both feature of 10g just for testing purpose on test database..
yes these feature gives little bit effect on performance.
asm instance also use 120m memory from ram.
This is the not right time to use these feature in production database.
and i don't think that 10g rel 1 is suitable for prod database.
and in AWR it also provide information at OS level. like

Gather_table_stats and AWR

Hi all,
i would like to disable automatic gathering of table statistics with dbms_scheduler.disable(name => 'SYS.GATHER_STATS_JOB'), because we like to gather statistics every time immediatly after we batch load our tables in our data warehouse. Is it right that this job is also needed for AWR and that oracle will not save system statistics once per hour if i disable this job?
Database version is 10gR2.
Thanks,
Robert

Database version is 10gR2.Robert,
the recommended way to disable automatic statistics collection on the non-Oracle objects in 10g is:
exec DBMS_STATS.SET_PARAM('AUTOSTATS_TARGET', 'ORACLE')
This way the job still gets executed but collects only statistics on the dictionary / AWR / etc. (owned by Oracle) tables. If you disable the job completely, your dictionary statistics might get outdated, potentially leading to suboptimal dictionary performance.
By the way:
"Oracle Database 10g uses a scheduled job, GATHER_STATS_JOB, to collect AWR statistics."This is a bit misleading, the job's purpose is to collect object statistics, as already mentioned the AWR snapshots are controlled differently (and by default are taken every hour, not only during the maintenance windows).
Another way you could handle your requirement would be to lock the statistics of the affected table or schemas by using DBMS_STATS.LOCK_TABLE/SCHEMA_STATS. This way these tables/schemas will be skipped by the default gathering job, and you need then to use the "FORCE=>true" parameter when gathering statistics individually. Note that there is one peculiarity with this approach: If you create/rebuild indexes on a table having the statistics locked, the default option "COMPUTE STATISTICS" of 10g doesn't apply any more, so it doesn't update the statistics of the index automatically in the dictionary, and there is unfortunately no "force" parameter available in the CREATE/ALTER INDEX command. You would need to either temporarily unlock the statistics or gather the index statistics separately (which means additional work for the database).

Can I have automatic e-mail setting for ADDM and AWR reports??

Can I have Automatic e-mail settings for all my AWR and ADDM reports so I don;t have to run the reports all the time but they can be sent over to my mailbox and I can review them, if at all I can do that then can I bound them to a particular time frame where I can recieve only those reports durin the peak usage of my database.
thanks

Hi Rohan,
Can I have Automatic e-mail settings for all my AWR and ADDM reports so I don;t have to run the reports all the time but they can be sent over to my mailbox and I can review them,You bet! I do it for all of my databases:
1 - Use a cron (or preferably dbms_scheduler) to schedule the awrrpt.sql execution, directing the report to a fixed file location (e.g. /tmp).
2 - As step 2 from the scheduled task, direct the report as input to sendmail:
For Windows:

For Linux:

For complete details of job scheduling, see Dr. Hall's book "Oracle Job Scheduling":

Hope this helps. . . .

ASH and AWR related

Hello,
I have studied about AWR and ASH but i am not getting the clarity.
Like ASH means it will collect information about all the active database sessions like database user,
the module being run, SQL execution plans, wait events, CPU time used, and
database objects being accessed.The MMNL background process is responsible for writing
session data to memory. This should enable performance data to be collected
with minimal overhead to the system
AWR:-The Automatic Workload Repository (AWR) collects performance
data automatically...
Like performance data means it wll also collect info about sql exection plans and cpu time used and additionally about operating system statistics.
What is the difference i am unable to understand...both will get the performance info about the database which will be used by ADDM to intimate us what should we do next thats it rite?
KIndly tell me exact difference in simple words.
Thanks,
928714.

Both are going to work automatically and without any special settings to be done . All what you need is license to use them though. The major difference is that AWR is a whole database level health check. So let's suppose you are doing a regular monitoring activity and want to have a report of the comparable time periods, you would be using AWR. This would help you to see that what's going on the overall level and using that you can decided what to do next(or db itself can suggest to you) .
On the other hand, ASH as you said yourself, is a report of those sessions which are active and yet are waiting. So the situation to use it would be , for example, few users report to you that I am slow from the last 10 minutes. To find out the problem with the user, you wouldn't grab a whole database level, hourly long report i.e. AWR but a 10 minute report of ASH and would use it to find out what's going on. That would be a place where the entire db's report would be like using a hammer to kill an ant.

Explain plan before and after ??

is there a way to find out what sql plan was before and what sqlp plan is right now ?
i know we can look at dba_hist_sql_plan but not sure how to put it all togeather...
i am on 10.2.0.3
i have a sql that running slow right now, i have the sql_id for it now...looks like its runing
slow and last week it was fine...need to know what the explain plan was last week ??

If you are lincenced to use AWR and history tables, you can do this
SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY_AWR('&SQL_ID')); ---to get the SQL execution plan as it was run from history
For the current one, you know how to get it
SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY_CURSOR('&SQL_ID'));
SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY('&SQL_ID'));
You can also query dba_hist_sql_plan and format the results.
