STATSPACK.SNAP GOT ORA-1652 ON 11.1

Question

Hi,
This is related to bug BUG:8323663/8226792 in 11.1 and Oracle support has confirmed that this is fixed in 11.2. They have not provided any fix in 11.1.
However, if you are stuck with 11.1 database, you can use the following solution as a fix to this issue:
1. Connect to the database as sys
2. Recreate the following view with the below command:
create or replace view STATS$V_$FILESTATXS as
select /*+RULE */ ts.name      tsname
, df.name filename
, fs.phyrds
, fs.phywrts
, fs.readtim
, fs.writetim
, fs.singleblkrds
, fs.phyblkrd
, fs.phyblkwrt
, fs.singleblkrdtim
, fw.count wait_count
, fw.time time
, df.file#
from x$kcbfwait fw
, v$filestat fs
, v$tablespace ts
, v$datafile df
where ts.ts# = df.ts#
and fs.file# = df.file#
and fw.indx+1 = df.file#;
3. Run the statspack.snap procedure and it should run quicker.
Enjoy...

hello,
running now a snap as perfstat user I get this error
SQL> exec statspack.snap;
BEGIN statspack.snap; END;
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04063: package body "SYS.DBMS_SHARED_POOL" has errors
ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called:
"SYS.DBMS_SHARED_POOL"
ORA-06512: at "PERFSTAT.STATSPACK", line 5767
ORA-06512: at line 1
In fact
SQL> select owner,object_name,object_type from dba_objects where status='INVALID
2 order by object_name;
OWNER OBJECT_NAME OBJECT_TYPE
SYS DBMS_SHARED_POOL PACKAGE BODY
PUBLIC STATSPACK SYNONYM
Trying to recompile as sysdba I get
Connected to:
Oracle Database 11g Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
SQL> alter package dbms_shared_pool compile body;
Warning: Package Body altered with compilation errors.
SQL> show errors
Errors for PACKAGE BODY DBMS_SHARED_POOL:
LINE/COL ERROR
87/13 PLS-00323: subprogram or cursor 'PURGE' is declared in a package
specification and must be defined in the package body
Could it be that t was my first 10.2.0.3 spcreate.sql putting the package in this state?
I don't suppose so and that the package was already invalid before... but not sure...
How to correct? I found similar cases where Oracle oly suggested catalog/catproc runs... but I would like to avoid if possible...
Thanks in advance
