How to find Oracle is using swap space or not?

Hi,
I have a SuSe Linux database server on which 2 Oracle 10g databases and one MySQL server is running.
I can see a very little swap space is being used in the server while there is almost 100% RAM utlization.
I want to know if my Oracle databases are using swap or not. If it is using, how much of swap being used currently by each Oracle database?
Can someone please guide me on how to do that?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Murali Mohan

I did "vmstat 1 10" and here is the output.
What I want to know how much swap space is used by each of my oracle database while the below output is for total swap usage

Database Instance Using Swap Space even When There is Plenty of Free RAM

Hi,
I am facinga strange issue in oracle on solaris 5.10
Platform:solaris 5.10
Database version:11.2.0.1.0
Our database Instance Using Swap Space even When There is Plenty of Free RAM.
We have 80GB of physical RAM, 32GB is set to oracle SGA_MAX_SIZE
memory parameters:

sga_target big integer 32G
but still oracle is taking memory from swap even though we have enough physical memory.

I refered the metalink document id: [ID 761960.1]
Database Instance Using Swap Space When There is Plenty of Free RAM metalink note [ID 761960.1]
and tried the disabling the sga_max_size and memory_max_target and memory target with all different combination but no use.
We have one more box where same setup was configured in solaris platform but there the above memory parameters are not disabled but it is not using swap space it takes memry only from physical RAM
Can any one throw some lights on this issue. It wopuld be great if I come to know where the exact problem
Thanks in advance
With Regards,
Boobathi P

Hi,
I didn't say I am not using 11gr2 memory parameters I am using all the automatic memory parameters but the thinks is as per the metalink note I tried by disabling the automatic memory parameters. but that didn't help me in preventing unnecessary swap usage. So I reverted. now it is using automatic memory parameters.
so What is the solution for this?
With Regards,
Boo

How to find Port numbers used by RMI application

Hi, hope u all find me a solution, how to find port numbers used in the RMI application, that is port number which the RMI application communicates between RMIserver and RMIclient. ur answers would b highly appreciated

Currently RMI transport layer does not directly expose any public methods to get the listening ports of the exported RMI objects, but the application can always export RMI server objects at certain designated ports instead of relying on the RMI runtime by specifying them to UnicastRemoteObjcect at the time of exporting.
RMI transport layer try to optimize the number of listeing sockets by exporting all RMI server objects on a single port if no explicit ports were chosen. If the application is really interested in knowing the listeing ports, it can always specify the client and server socket factories to be used for creating Socket and ServerSocket to the RMI runtime at the time of exporting. When a RMI server object is exported, but the listening socket is not yet created, RMI transport layer invokes the createServerSocket(host, port) of server socket factory by passing the host and port details. If no explicit port is specified, underlying socket implementation choses anonymous port. At this point of time application can log these listeing ports to some log file.
Similarly when the stub to the remote object is de-serialized in the client address space, it does also contain the client socket factory along with the end point details (host, port and server object ID). RMI runtime in the client address space needs to establish connection with the remote server object, it try to get the socket from client socket factory by invoking createSocket() on the client socket factory. Now the application can call getLocalPort() on the socket before returning it to the RMI transport layer.
There is a undocumented class RMIStat to dump RMI runtime state information. It provides a lot of static methods to dump RMI state information like object table, transports, threads etc. You can download the source code of this utility from RMI archives, but remember this is not a comman-line utility, you must invoke these static methods as part of the application code.

How to find oracle archieved products

Hi
I want to download Oracle Forms 6i for all OS(Vista). here is a link http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/index.html which everybody say we can find Oracle Forms6i. But i feel that now its difficult to find archieved products. If any body has info on how to find Oracle forms 6i download link please reply.
thanks a lot

Oracle Forms 6i (6.0.8) is obsolete and no longer supported. It was also never certified to be installed on Vista or any of the newer OSs. The likelihood that you will experience problems installing on those platforms is quite high and is not recommended. That said, if you really would prefer to use an obsolete product you can still download it for a limited time here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/forms/htdocs/winsoft.html
I do not know how long this URL will remain available as we are slowly cleaning up all of the old references to now unsupported products.

How to find process chain using background job in sm37

How to find process chain using background job in sm37

Better is to select the job.
Select (Define) Step (s) or F6.
Select the line and Menu Goto>Variant.
The variant contains the name of the CHAIN and its VARIANT.
Success
We faced an old job and via job monitoring we were informed about a cancelled job every 'interval'.
We noticed that the related chain was deleted but still the job was scheduled each interval again and was cancelled because an event was missing
We could not find the scheduled job via SM37.
Via view V_OP, view over tbtco abd tbtcp, we find the related entry.
We delete these entries via function BP_JOB_DELETE....

How to find report values using report writer

How to find report values using report writer
Regards,
RRK.
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Feb 6, 2008 12:01 PM

Thanks all for the reply.
I am trying to solve a problem where report parameter value that is set at Management Console is wiped out after calling replaceConnection.
databaseController.replaceConnection(oldConnectionInfo, newConnectionInfo,
null,DBOptions._doNotVerifyDB);
We have to support changing database connection from a java utility
class. But once replaceConnection is called all existing static parameter values are lost. To fix this issue we thought of getting parameters and values before calling replaceConnection and setting it after replaceConnection.
Version is CS2008 SP3 - version 12.3.0.601
If there is any other option of fixing the original wipe out issue?
ParameterValues.getValues() didn't return value. I will try ParameterValues.getCurrentCalues() but the document says ParameterValues.getValues() is equivalent to the IParameterField.getCurrentValues() method unless it is empty, in which case it is equivalent to the IParameterField.getDefaultValues() method.
So getCurrentValues() may not work.

How to prevent Oracle from using an index when joining two tables ...

How to prevent Oracle from using an index when joining two tables to get an inline view which is used in an update statement?
O.K. I think I have to explain what I mean:
When joining two tables which have many entries sometimes it es better not to use an index on the column used as join criteria.
I have two tables: table A and table B.
Table A has 4.000.000 entries and table B has 700.000 entries.
I have a join of both tables with a numeric column as join criteria.
There is an index on this column in table A.
So I instead of
where (A.col = B.col)I want to use
where (A.col+0 = B.col)in order to prevent Oracle from using the index.
When I use the join in a select statement it works.
But when I use the join as inline view in an update statement I get the error ORA-01779.
When I remove the "+0" the update statement works. (The column col is unique in table B).
Any ideas why this happens?
Thank you very much in advance for any help.
Regards Hartmut

I think you should post an properly formatted explain plan output using DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY including the "Predicate Information" section below the plan to provide more details regarding your query resp. update statement. Please use the \[code\] and \[code\] tags to enhance readability of the output provided:
In SQL*Plus:
SET LINESIZE 130
EXPLAIN PLAN FOR <your statement>;
SELECT * FROM TABLE(DBMS_XPLAN.DISPLAY);Usually if you're using the CBO (cost based optimizer) and have reasonable statistics gathered on the database objects used the optimizer should be able to determine if it is better to use the existing index or not.
Things look different if you don't have statistics, you have outdated/wrong statistics or deliberately still use the RBO (rule based optimizer). In this case you would have to use other means to prevent the index usage, the most obvious would be the already mentioned NO_INDEX or FULL hint.
But I strongly recommend to check in first place why the optimizer apparently seems to choose an inappropriate index access path.

Randolf

Observation: SAP uses swap space even when OS has available unused memory

Hi Folks,
   It is my understanding that any memory not used by the Linux OS itself or the SAP application is available for Linux to use for I/O buffers and file caching. When the SAP application requires more memory I would expect Linux to take memory away from itself (release I/O buffer and/or file caching memory).
   We have observed that SAP uses swap space even when there is memory available. Is there some feature in SAP kernel or some ABAP construct that causes SAP to prefer swap space over available memory? Or maybe there is a Linux kernel setting that influences SAP's use of swapping.
Regards,
Zaz

Hi Mike
You did not mention which distribution you have. Under SLES there is is a parameter called SWAPPINESS, which controls the buffering/swapping.
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
If you don't already know, you can see the memory usage with the free command.
root # free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          7987       7901         85          0        364       4262
-/+ buffers/cache:       3274       4712
Swap:        15999          0      15999
As far as i know, in this example 3274 is memory used by SAP and other processes and 4712 is cache. Please correct me if i am wrong.
Regards
Michael
Edit: a low swappines, for example 10 means to reduce cache first, a high swappiness (example 100) means page out processes first
