Identifing which session is blocking which session

Dear All,
We are having 500 user we don't have Database administrator.
All of us are Form6i/Report6i developers.
We do basic DBA activities liking creation of user, taking backup etc.
Recently we have started facing follwoing problem:
1) Our HR department uses 5-10 different types of report.
Other departments uses 1-5 types of reports.
HR & Other department even though refering to different reports are using some common tables which are used in HR as wel as Other department's report.
Report of HR gets hanged.
What we observe in "Enterprise Manager Console" in session that there are non HR user which are also running report.
The information we see is "Memory Usage","I/O reads","CPU time","Session","User" and so on. We just see who is using maximum memory or CPU time or I/O reads and on basis of that we kill the user (which may be inappropriate)
What we are enable to understand is at that point of time which user SQL is blocking which user.
e.g: user "PKP0001" session is inactive and he calls us and tells my report is hanged. We want to identify which user if we kill will allow "PKP0001" user's report to get executed.
2) User executes there report and get the result on the screen. User gets what he wants but when we see in Enterprise Manager Console" in session even though his task is complete it shows status as inactive with his high "I/O reads","Memory", "CPU" time. so we have to identify and call that user confirm whether he is running any form or report if not then kill his session or ask him to close the application.
In this case how would we identify without asking the user whether he doing something or not.
Any mehtod we need to implement in our form6i and report 6i which will take care of that.
Kindly suggest as soon as possible.
Thanking You in anticipation.

Devendra,
It is fairly easy to determine which session is blocking another session. Take a look at the SQL statements in this thread (the SQL statements are not well explained, but the output might be understandable):
enq TX  locked row
The first, which queries V$SESSION_WAIT and V$SESSION, shows the wait event (on 10g and above, provides a better clue as to the reason session is waiting), the number of seconds waiting, SQL_ADDR and SQL_HASH_VALUE (may be used to find the SQL statement the session submitted), and details potentially describing the object being waited on, the specific absolute data file number, the block number, and the row within the block (DBMS_ROWID.ROWID_CREATE may be used to generate a ROWID to use to query the table in order to determine the actual contents of the row being waited on). The definition of P1, P2, and P3 vary by the type of wait event. In this case, lock mode and lock type for the waiting session may be derived from the P1 value.
The second, which queries V$LOCK and V$SESSION, shows the two sessions involved in the lock. SID 150, in all cases is blocking SID 143 (as indicated by the BLOCK column). The other columns returned may be used to determine the SQL statements executed by each session (the SQL statement should have retrieved SQL_ADDR also on 10g and above), and the type of locks involved by both sessions.

  • Sp_who2 -need only active sessions from users which are not the background sessions

    Hello,
    sp_who2 -need only active sessions from users which are not the background  sessions
    Please assist.
    Best regards,
    Vishal

    Its better to use DMV's to view only active sessions from users (spid>50) as mentioned by Shanky.
    You can do that using sp_who2 but it requires a bit of programming to list only user sessions.

  • Has no value definition - Session INIT Block.

    Hi,
    I have a Session initialization block for Fetching Departments from a Security table for the user logging in.
    One user can have Multiple Departments assigned to him, so i enabled Row-wise initialization in INIT Block.
    But when a user not assigned to any departments logs in, i am getting 'Session variable has no value definition' error in all the reports. But i should instead pass a default value when SQL in INIT Block is not returning anything. Like '0'.
    How can i do this? please respond.
    Thanks
    Swami

    Hi Swami,
    When the query fetches a result set, the variable gets initialized.
    But, when the query doesn't fetch any rows, the variable doesn't gets initialized and hence "no value definition" errors out.
    So, to avoid this,
    In the query itself, place an exception condition which returns '0'.
    select dept_name from table
    where user_name = ':user'
    UNION
    select '0' from table
    where user_name <> ':user'or you can use like this
    select CASE WHEN user_name = ':user' THEN dept_name ELSE '0' END
    from tableP.S: Query written orally. (Pls adjust the query accordingly)
    Regards,
    Raghu

  • Basic anonymous block which drops and creates a table

    Version: 11.2.0.3
    I am fairly new to PL/SQL.
    We have a table named CHK_CNFG_DTL.
    I want to create a backup table for CHK_CNFG_DTL which will be named like CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_<timestamp> eg: CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_JULY_22_2013
    Creation of this backup table has to be automated so, I want to create an anonymous block which will first drop the existing backup table and then create a new backup table from the original table.
    The below code works fine. But the very first time when you run it , the loop won't iterate because there is no such table named CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP%.
    declare
    v_stmt varchar2(1000);
    v_date date;
    begin
      for rec in
      (select * from user_tables where table_name like 'CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP%' )
        loop
            begin
                execute immediate 'alter session set nls_date_format=''DD_MON_YYYY''';
                v_stmt := 'drop table '||rec.table_name|| ' purge';
                dbms_output.put_line(v_stmt);   ----- Drops Old backup table
                execute immediate v_stmt;
                select sysdate into v_date from dual;
                v_stmt := 'create table CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_'||to_date(v_date)||' as select * from CHK_CNFG_DTL';
                dbms_output.put_line('Creating Bkp table CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_'|| to_date(v_date) );
                dbms_output.put_line(v_stmt);
                execute immediate v_stmt;  --- Creates new Backup table
            exception
            when others
            then
            dbms_output.PUT_LINE (rec.table_name||'-'||sqlerrm);
            end;
        end loop;
    end;
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
    -- Backup table not created.
    SQL> select table_name from user_Tables where table_name like 'CHK_CNFG_DTL%';
    TABLE_NAME
    CHK_CNFG_DTL
    Of course, this can fixed by creating a table like bleow before executing the anonymous block
    SQL> create table CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_JULY_22_2013 (x varchar2(37));
    Table created.
    and now the block will succesfully run like
    24  end;
    25  /
    drop table CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_JULY_22_2013 purge
    Creating Bkp table CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_22_JUL_2013
    create table CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_22_JUL_2013 as select * from CHK_CNFG_DTL
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
    But this is going to production . We can't a table like CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_JULY_22_2013 without a proper business reason.
    How can I modify the above code so that if even if there is no such table like 'CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP%' , it will proceed to create the backup table?

    Hi,
    Why won't you push the creation of the backup out of the loop ?
    declare
    v_stmt varchar2(1000);
    v_date date;
    begin
      for rec in
      (select * from user_tables where table_name like 'CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP%' )
        loop
            begin
                execute immediate 'alter session set nls_date_format=''DD_MON_YYYY''';
                v_stmt := 'drop table '||rec.table_name|| ' purge';
                dbms_output.put_line(v_stmt);   ----- Drops Old backup table
                execute immediate v_stmt;
            exception
            when others
            then
            dbms_output.PUT_LINE (rec.table_name||'-'||sqlerrm);
            end;
        end loop;
                select sysdate into v_date from dual;
                v_stmt := 'create table CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_'||to_date(v_date)||' as select * from CHK_CNFG_DTL';
                dbms_output.put_line('Creating Bkp table CHK_CNFG_DTL_BKP_'|| to_date(v_date) );
                dbms_output.put_line(v_stmt);
                execute immediate v_stmt;  --- Creates new Backup table
    end;

  • Problem of creating session initialisation block

    Hi,
    I'm using OBIEE11.6, I want to new a session initialisation block, and I select Database as the Data Source Type,select the Default initialisation string radio button,but when I select the connection pool, the there is no connection pool in right pane,I have created two connection pools by oracle DB before,
    but now I can't select the connection pool,the Select button is gray and can't click.
    But when I new a repository initialisation block, I can select the connection pool.
    so I don't know why.
    If you know please help me.
    Thank you!

    Thanks MK,
    I have tested that use the connection pool which with some tables it warn me it will impact performance.
    but I use the connection pool which with no tables it also warn me it will impact performance.
    so I don't know how to create Independent connection pool that you mean.

    I run it again and I get something different, this time the lock is still there, but no session. select * from v$session where sid= 514 returns nothing.

It seems here, that I am catching the same SID on new sessions, but it is probably a different serial # than the original session locking the table rows.
    I get nothing from
    select * from dba_waiters;
    select * from dba_blockers;
    Now why are those 3 tables row locked on some rows and I can't find the session responsible? The developer tells me his application crashed and the rows are locked since.
    So far ( keep in mind I am not a locking expert) the only way I found to release the locks is a DB bounce, its a test DB so no biggy.
    Is this a bug? Am I missing something?
    This is the second time this has happened. How can I solve this issue?
    Best wishes to all.

    Thank you for your reply.
    I do not think I can kill the session (514) it does not exist, even though v$locked_object reports tables are locked by session 514

  • Logical block corruption in an unused block which is a part of index

    Now, I have identified that this block belongs to an index subpartition so I have rebuild it with alter index ... rebuild subpartition... However, the RMAN backup still fails and DBV still reports an error.
    I know that we could simply recreate the index but the problem is that its quite big (>6GB and table is >7TB).
    My strong feeling is that the cause of this is that corrupted blocks will still be reported by RMAN and DBV until they are reused and reformatted.
    My question is:
    How can I reuse or reformat a block which does not belong to any object?

    Hi,
    Yes you're right, you need to reformat that block.
    For that you need to allocate that block to a table, and fill that table with data until high water mark goes higher than block 1879477.
    This isthe way I've done it once:
    1) check the free space size below that block:
    select sum(bytes)/1024/1024 before from dba_free_space where file_id=1879477 and block_id <= 1503738;
    Let's say it is 6000 MB
    2) create a dummy table, allocate enough extents to fill the size returned from the previous query
    This does not format blocks, but the advantage of allocate extents is that you can specify size and datafile:
    alter table allocate extents size 6000M datafile '/oracle/oradata/DB2/plind05_02.dbf';
    you can check dba_extents to see if it covers block 1879477. If not, try to add a little more extents.
    3) fill the table with data to fill those extents.
    One idea is to insert one rows into the table, then use 'alter table test minimize records_per_block;' so that each block will have 2 rows maximum.
    check the number of blocks (from dba_segments). Say you have 768000 blocks. Then you need to insert 768000/2 rows:
    insert into ... select ... from dual connect by level < (768000/2)
    4) check the high water mark has reach the end of all extents (compare dba_tables.blocks and dba_segemnts.blocks)
    5) if not enough, try to add a little more rows.
    Be careful that you don't go too far (especially if you have extensible datafile). Unfortunately, maxextents is ignored on LMT :(
    6) now, your block should be reformatted. Just drop the dummy table.
    Regards,
    Franck.

  • How to clear only blocks which have values

    Hi there,
    Is there anyone knows how to clear data from blocks which only have values ? so the idea, i dont have to create any new block by using something like set a block to be #MI ?
    Please advice. Thanks a lot
    R'gards
    Octoni

    From Technical Reference
    The CLEARDATA command clears a well-defined section of a database's cells and changes the values of those cells to #MISSING values. This command is useful when you need to clear existing data values before loading new values into a database. CLEARDATA can only clear a section of a database. It cannot clear the entire database.

  • When I open my Colour Picker, the middle block (which normally shows the colour in a gradient of shades) is just a solid colour depending on which H, S, B, R, G, B I have selected. How do I revert it back to normal?

    When I open my Colour Picker, the middle block (which normally shows the colour in a gradient of shades) is just a solid colour depending on which H, S, B, R, G, B I have selected. How do I revert it back to normal?

    Becky,
    It seems that  the issue is caused by a corrupt folder called en_US or similar (depending on language) within the Adobe Illustrator 18 Settings folder, see post #7 by Jules in this thread,
    https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1595766
    so the solution should be to move or rename that folder (or the whole Adobe Illustrator 18 Settings folder).
    You can find the folder in Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed.
    As a temporary roundabout way, you can select the lower rectangle to the right of the rainbow and DoubleClick to apply that to change the top rectangle and the values: the lower colour is the right one.

  • Hi I have an old fsnet email address which has been blocked. How do I unblock it

    I have an old freeserve email address which has been blocked.  This has happened before and I just contacted Orange (took over Freeserve) and then it was released to e again.
    How do I do that now that EE have taken over Orange.
    My old email s [email protected]

    It makes no diif that EE has taken oven Orange. EE still handles all the email domains back to Freeserve ones.
    Are you logging in here: http://email.orange.co.uk/ ?
    You need to contact EE to unblock it. There is a so-called "email" form that you can use for BB: https://explore.ee.co.uk/broadband/email-us . Also see below in my sig.
