Introduction
StatsPack was created in response to a need for more relevant and more extensive statistical reporting beyond what was available via UTLBSTAT/UTLESTAT reports. Further, this information can be stored permanently in the database instance itself so that historical data is always available for comparison and diagnosis.
Statspack has been available since version 816, but can be installed on 806 and above. Snapshots created using older versions of statspack can usually be read using newer versions of Statspack although the newer features will not be available.
See the following notes for information on installing, configuring snapshots, and generating reports:
Note: 149113.1 - Installing and Configuring StatsPack Package
Note: 149121.1 - Gathering a StatsPack snapshot
Note: 149124.1 - Creating a StatsPack performance report
Note: 94224.1 - FAQ- StatsPack Complete ReferenceTimed_statistics must be set to true prior to the creation of a snapshot. If it is not, the data within statspack will not be relevant. You can tell if timed_statistics was not set by looking at the total times columns in the report. If these are zero then timed_statistics was not set.
Snapshots during which the instance was recycled will not contain accurate information and should not be included in a statspack report.
In general, we suggest that snapshots intervals be 15 minutes in length. This allows fine-grained reporting when hangs are suspected/detected. The snapshots can also be combined into hourly reports for general performance tuning.
When a value is too large for the statspack field it will be represented by a series of pound signs such as #######. Should this occur and you need to see the value in the field you will need to decrease the number of snapshots in the report until the field can be read. Should there only be one snapshot in the report, then you will need to decrease the snapshot interval.
Profiles created using statspack information are quite helpful in determining long-term trends such as load increases, usage trends, resource consumption, latch activity, etc. It is especially important that a DBA know these things and be able to demonstrate changes in them that necessitate hardware improvements and load balancing policies. This document will describe the main sections of an statspack report, which will help to understand what information is available to diagnose and resolve performance tuning problems. Some of the sections of the statspack report may contain different information based on the Statspack release that was used to generate the report. This document will also indicate these changes for the different sections.
Summary Information
The summary information begins with the identification of the database on which the statspack report was run along with the time interval of the statspack report. Here is the 8i instance information:
STATSPACK report for DB Name DB Id Instance Inst Num Release OPS Host ------------ ----------- ------------ -------- ----------- --- ------------ PHS2 975244035 phs2 2 8.1.7.2.0 YES leo2 Snap Id Snap Time Sessions ------- ------------------ -------- Begin Snap: 100 03-Jan-02 08:00:01 ####### End Snap: 104 03-Jan-02 09:00:01 ####### Elapsed: 60.00 (mins)The database name, id, instance name, instance number if OPS is being utilized, Oracle binary release information, host name and snapshot information are provided.
Note that here the number of sessions during the snapshot was too large for the sessions field and so the overflow symbol is displayed.
Here is an example of an 806 instance using statspack:
STATSPACK report for DB Name DB Id Instance Inst Num Release OPS Host ---------- ----------- ---------- -------- ---------- ---- ---------- GLOVP 1409723819 glovp 1 8.0.6.1.0 NO shiver Snap Length Start Id End Id Start Time End Time (Minutes) -------- -------- -------------------- -------------------- ----------- 454 455 07-Jan-03 05:28:20 07-Jan-03 06:07:53 39.55Here is the 9i instance information. Note that the OPS column is now entitled 'Cluster' to accommodate the newer Real Applications Cluster (RAC) terminology and that the Cursors/Session and Comment columns have been added.
STATSPACK report for DB Name DB Id Instance Inst Num Release Cluster Host ------------ ----------- ------------ -------- ----------- ------- ------------ ETSPRD7 1415901831 etsprd7a 1 9.2.0.2.0 YES tsonode1 Snap Id Snap Time Sessions Curs/Sess Comment ------- ------------------ -------- --------- ------------------- Begin Snap: 20 03-Jan-03 00:00:05 ####### .0 End Snap: 21 03-Jan-03 01:00:05 ####### .0 Elapsed: 60.00 (mins)
Instance Workload Information
Every statspack report start with a section that describes the instance's workload profile and instance metrics that may help to determine the instance efficiency.
- Instance cache information:
In the 8i report the buffer cache size can be determined by multiplying the db_block_buffers by the db_block_size.
Cache Sizes ~~~~~~~~~~~ db_block_buffers: 6400 log_buffer: 104857600 db_block_size: 32768 shared_pool_size: 150000000
In 9i this has been done for you. Std Block size indicates the primary block size of the instance.Cache Sizes (end) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Buffer Cache: 704M Std Block Size: 8K Shared Pool Size: 256M Log Buffer: 1,024KNote that the buffer cache size is that of the standard buffer cache. If you have multiple buffer caches, you will need to calculate the others separately.
- Load profile Information:
The load profile information is next; the load profile is measuring in bytes. It is identical in both 8i and 9i.
Load Profile ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Per Second Per Transaction --------------- --------------- Redo size: 351,530.67 7,007.37 Logical reads: 5,449.81 108.64 Block changes: 1,042.0 8 20.77 Physical reads: 37.71 0.75 Physical writes: 134.68 2.68 User calls: 1,254.72 25.01 Parses: 4.92 0.10 Hard parses: 0.02 0.00 Sorts: 15.73 0.31 Logons: -0.01 0.00 Executes: 473.73 9.44 Transactions: 50.17 % Blocks changed per Read: 19.12 Recursive Call %: 4.71 Rollback per transaction %: 2.24 Rows per Sort: 20.91Where:
. Redo size: This is the amount of redo generated during this report.
. Logical Reads: This is calculated as Consistent Gets + DB Block Gets = Logical Reads
. Block changes: The number of blocks modified during the sample interval
. Physical Reads: The number of requests for a block that caused a physical I/O.
. Physical Writes: The number of physical writes issued.
. User Calls: The number of queries generated
. Parses: Total of all parses: both hard and soft
. Hard Parses: Those parses requiring a completely new parse of the SQL statement. These consume both latches and shared pool area.
. Soft Parses: Not listed but derived by subtracting the hard parses from parses. A soft parse reuses a previous hard parse and hence consumes far fewer resources.
. Sorts, Logons, Executes and Transactions are all self explanatory
- Instance Efficiency Ratios:
Hit ratios are calculations that may provide information regarding different structures and operations in the Oracle instance. Database tuning never must be driven by hit ratios. They only provide additional information to understand how the instance is operating. For example, in a DSS systems a low cache hit ratio may be acceptable due the amount of recycling needed due the large volume of data accesed. So if you increase the size of the buffer cache based on this number, the corrective action may not take affect and you may be wasting memory resources.
See Note.190124.1 - THE COE PERFORMANCE METHOD , for further reference on how to approach a performance tuning problem.
This section is identical in 8i and 9i.
Instance Efficiency Percentages (Target 100%) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Buffer Nowait %: 99.99 Redo NoWait %: 100.00 Buffer Hit %: -45.57 In-memory Sort %: 97.55 Library Hit %: 99.89 Soft Parse %: 99.72 Execute to Parse %: -1.75 Latch Hit %: 99.11 Parse CPU to Parse Elapsd %: 52.66 % Non-Parse CPU: 99.99 Shared Pool Statistics Begin End ------ ------ Memory Usage %: 42.07 43.53 % SQL with executions>1: 73.79 75.08 % Memory for SQL w/exec>1: 76.93 77.64It is possible for both the 'buffer hit ratio' and the 'execute to parse' ratios to be negative. In the case of the buffer hit ration, the buffer cache is too small and the data in is being aged out before it can be used so it must be retrieved again. This is a form of thrashing which degrades performance immensely.
The execute to parse ratio can be negative when the number of parses is larger than the number of executions. The Execute to Parse ratio is determined by the following formula:
100 * (1 - Parses/Executions) = Execute to Parse
Here this becomes:
100 * (1 - 42,757 / 42,023 ) = 100 * (1 - 1.0175) = 100* -0.0175 = -1.75
This can be caused by the snapshot boundary occurring during a period of high parsing so that the executions have not occurred before the end of the snapshot. Check the next snapshot to see if there are enough executes to account for the parses in this report.Another cause for a negative execute to parse ratio is if the shared pool is too small and queries are aging out of the shared pool and need to be reparsed. This is another form of thrashing which also degrades performance tremendously.
- Top 5 Events section:
This section shows the Top 5 timed events that must be considered to focus the tuning efforts. Before Oracle 9.2 this section was called "Top 5 Wait Events". It was renamed in Oracle 9.2 to "Top 5 Timed Events" to include the "CPU Time" based on the 'CPU used by this session'. This information will allow you to determine SQL tuning problems.
For further see the Statspack readme file called $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/spdoc.txt. These events are particularly useful in determining which sections to view next. For instance if there are fairly high waits on latch free or one of the other latches you might want to examine the latch sections first. On the other hand, if the db file read waits events seem abnormally high, you might want to look at the file io section first.
Top 5 Wait Events ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wait % Total Event Waits Time (cs) Wt Time -------------------------------------------- ------------ ------------ ------- db file sequential read 12,131,221 173,910 58.04 db file scattered read 93,310 86,884 29.00 log file sync 18,629 9,033 3.01 log file parallel write 18,559 8,449 2.82 buffer busy waits 304,461 7,958 2.66
Notice that in Oracle 9.2 references are made "Elapsed Time" rather than to "Wait Time". Also the "CPU Time" is included as part of the Top events section.Top 5 Timed Events ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ % Total Event Waits Time (s) Ela Time -------------------------------------------- ------------ ----------- -------- log file sync 3,223,927 32,481 64.05 CPU time 7,121 14.04 global cache open x 517,153 3,130 6.17 log file parallel write 985,732 2,613 5.15 KJC: Wait for msg sends to complete 568,061 1,794 3.54 -------------------------------------------------------------Note that db file scattered and sequential read are generally the top wait events when the instance is tuned well and not OPS/RAC. Wait Events
Cluster Statistics
In Oracle 9i with the introduction of real Application Clusters, several sections were added to the statspack report to show information related to cluster database environment. The following sections are now available in statspack to monitor RAC environments and are only displayed when a cluster is detected.

Wait Events Information
The following section will describe in detail most of the sections provided in a statspack report.
- Foreground Wait Events:
Foreground wait events are those associated with a session or client process waiting for a resource. The 8i version looks like this:
Wait Events for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 -> cs - centisecond - 100th of a second -> ms - millisecond - 1000th of a second -> ordered by wait time desc, waits desc (idle events last) Avg Total Wait wait Waits Event Waits Timeouts Time (cs) (ms) /txn ---------------------------- ------------ ---------- ----------- ------ ------ PX Deq: Execution Msg 15,287 6,927 1,457,570 953 694.9 enqueue 30,367 28,591 737,906 243 ###### direct path read 45,484 0 352,127 77 ###### PX Deq: Table Q Normal 7,185 811 241,532 336 326.6 PX Deq: Execute Reply 13,925 712 194,202 139 633.0 ....
The 9.2 version is much the same but has different time intervals in the header.Wait Events for DB: FUSION Instance: ecfsc2 Snaps: 161 -162 -> s - second -> cs - centisecond - 100th of a second -> ms - millisecond - 1000th of a second -> us - microsecond - 1000000th of a second -> ordered by wait time desc, waits desc (idle events last) Avg Total Wait wait Waits Event Waits Timeouts Time (s) (ms) /txn ---------------------------- ------------ ---------- ---------- ------ -------- log file sync 3,223,927 1 32,481 10 1.0 global cache open x 517,153 777 3,130 6 0.2 log file parallel write 985,732 0 2,613 3 0.3 KJC: Wait for msg sends to c 568,061 34,529 1,794 3 0.2- Background Wait Events:
Background wait events are those not associated with a client process. They indicate waits encountered by system and non-system processes. The output is the same for all the Oracle releases.
Background Wait Events for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 -> ordered by wait time desc, waits desc (idle events last) Avg Total Wait wait Waits Event Waits Timeouts Time (cs) (ms) /txn ---------------------------- ------------ ---------- ----------- ------ ------ latch free 88,578 32,522 18,341 2 ###### enqueue 319 230 5,932 186 14.5 row cache lock 4,941 0 2,307 5 224.6 control file parallel write 1,172 0 332 3 53.3 db file parallel write 176 0 67 4 8.0 log file parallel write 315 0 65 2 14.3 db file scattered read 137 0 62 5 6.2 LGWR wait for redo copy 66 10 47 7 3.0
Examples of background system processes are LGWR and DBWR. An example of a non-system background process would be a parallel query slave.Note that it is possible for a wait event to appear in both the foreground and background wait events statistics. Examples of this are the enqueue and latch free events.
The idle wait events appear at the bottom of both sections and can generally safely be ignored. Typically these type of events keep record of the time while the clien is connected to the database but not requests are being made to the server.
- Notes Regarding Waitevents:
- The idle wait events associated with pipes are often a major source of concern for some DBAs. Pipe gets and waits are entirely application dependent. To tune these events you must tune the application generating them. High pipe gets and waits can affect the library cache latch performance. Rule out all other possible causes of library cache contention prior to focusing on pipe waits as it is very expensive for the client to tune their application.A list of most wait events used by the RDBMS kernel can be found in Appendix A of the Oracle Reference manual for the version being used.
Some wait events to watch:
- global cache cr request: (OPS) This wait event shows the amount of time that an instance has waited for a requested data block for a consistent read and the transferred block has not yet arrived at the requesting instance. See Note 157766.1 'Sessions Wait Forever for 'global cache cr request' Wait Event in OPS or RAC'. In some cases the 'global cache cr request' wait event may be perfectly normal if large buffer caches are used and the same data is being accessed concurrently on multiple instances. In a perfectly tuned, non-OPS/RAC database, I/O wait events would be the top wait events but since we are avoiding I/O's with RAC and OPS the 'global cache cr request' wait event often takes the place of I/O wait events.
- Buffer busy waits, write complete waits, db file parallel writes and enqueue waits: If all of these are in the top wait events the client may be experiencing disk saturation. See Note 155971.1 Resolving Intense and "Random" Buffer Busy Wait Performance Problems for troubleshooting tips.
- log file switch, log file sync or log switch/archive: If the waits on these events appears excessive check for checkpoint tuning issues.
Guide.
- write complete waits, free buffer waits or buffer busy waits: If any of these wait events is high, the buffer cache may need tuning. See Note 62172.1 'Understanding and Tuning Buffer Cache and DBWR in Oracle7, Oracle8, and Oracle8i'
- latch free: If high, the latch free wait event indicates that there was contention on one or more of the primary latches used by the instance. Look at the latch sections to diagnose and resolve this problem.
SQL Information
The SQL that is stored in the shared pool SQL area (Library cache) is reported to the user via three different formats in 8i. Each has their own usefulness.
. SQL ordered by Buffer Gets
. SQL ordered by Physical Reads
. SQL ordered by Executions9i has an additional section:
. SQL ordered by Parse Calls
- SQL ordered by Gets:
SQL ordered by Gets for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 -> End Buffer Gets Threshold: 10000 -> Note that resources reported for PL/SQL includes the resources used by all SQL statements called within the PL/SQL code. As individual SQL statements are also reported, it is possible and valid for the summed total % to exceed 100 Buffer Gets Executions Gets per Exec % Total Hash Value --------------- ------------ -------------- ------- ------------ 198,924 37,944 5.2 41.7 2913840444 select length from fet$ where file#=:1 and block#=:2 and ts#=:3 111,384 7 15,912.0 23.4 1714733582 select f.file#, f.block#, f.ts#, f.length from fet$ f, ts$ t whe re t.ts#=f.ts# and t.dflextpct!=0 and t.bitmapped=0 105,365 16 6,585.3 22.1 4111567099 CREATE TABLE "PHASE".:Q3236003("PID","CAMPAIGN","SCPOS1","SCPOS2 ","SCPOS3","SCPOS4","SCPOS5","SCPOS6","SCPOS7","SCPOS8","SCPOS9" ,"SCPOS10","SCPOS11","SCPOS12","SCPOS13","SCPOS14","SCPOS15","SC POS16","SCPOS17","MCELL","MAILID","RSPPROD","STATTAG","RSPREF"," RSPCRED","MAILDATE","RSPTDATE","BDATE","STATE","ZIP","INCOME","R ....
This section reports the contents of the SQL area ordered by the number of buffer gets and can be used to identify CPU Heavy SQL.- Many DBAs feel that if the data is already contained within the buffer cache the query should be efficient. This could not be further from the truth. Retrieving more data than needed, even from the buffer cache, requires CPU cycles and interprocess IO. Generally speaking, the cost of physical IO is not 10,000 times more expensive. It actually is in the neighborhood of 67 times and actually almost zero if the data is stored in the UNIX buffer cache.
- The statements of interest are those with a large number of gets per execution especially if the number of executions is high.
- High buffer gets generally correlates with heavy CPU usage.
- SQL ordered by Physical Reads:
SQL ordered by Reads for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 -> End Disk Reads Threshold: 1000 Physical Reads Executions Reads per Exec % Total Hash Value --------------- ------------ -------------- ------- ------------ 98,401 16 6,150.1 14.2 3004232054 SELECT C0 C0 FROM (SELECT C0 C0 FROM (SELECT /*+ NO_EXPAND ROWID (A1) */ A1."PID" C0 FROM "PHASE"."P0201F00_PLAT_MCOP_TB" PX_GRAN ULE(0, BLOCK_RANGE, DYNAMIC) A1) UNION ALL SELECT C0 C0 FROM (S ELECT /*+ NO_EXPAND ROWID(A2) */ A2."PID" C0 FROM "PHASE"."P0201 F00_UCS_MCOP_TB" PX_GRANULE(1, BLOCK_RANGE, DYNAMIC) A2) UNION 50,836 32 1,588.6 7.3 943504307 SELECT /*+ Q3263000 NO_EXPAND ROWID(A1) */ A1."PID" C0 FROM "PHA SE"."P9999F00_NEW_RESP_HIST_TB" PX_GRANULE(0, BLOCK_RANGE, DYNAM IC) A1 WHERE A1."CAMPAIGN"='200109M' AND A1."RSPPROD"='B' 50,836 32 1,588.6 7.3 3571039650 SELECT /*+ Q3261000 NO_EXPAND ROWID(A1) */ A1."PID" C0 FROM "PHA SE"."P9999F00_NEW_RESP_HIST_TB" PX_GRANULE(0, BLOCK_RANGE, DYNAM IC) A1 WHERE A1."CAMPAIGN"='200109M' AND A1."RSPPROD"='P' ....
This section reports the contents of the SQL area ordered by the number of reads from the data files and can be used to identify SQL causing IO bottlenecks which consume the following resources.
- CPU time needed to fetch unnecessary data.- File IO resources to fetch unnecessary data.
- Buffer resources to hold unnecessary data.
- Additional CPU time to process the query once the data is retrieved into the buffer.
- SQL ordered by Executions:

It is primarily useful in identifying the most frequently used SQL within the database so that they can be monitored for efficiency. Generally speaking, a small performance increase on a frequently used query provides greater gains than a moderate performance increase on an infrequently used query

- Bind variables are not being used.
- On RDBMS version 8172 and higher the init.ora parameter session_cached_cursors was not set in the init.ora (100 is usually the suggested starting value). See enhancement bug 1589185 for an explanation of the change that shifts some of the load from the library cache to the user session cache.
- The shared pool may be too small and the parse is not being retained long enough for multiple executions.
- cursor_sharing is set to exact (this should NOT be changed without considerable testing on the part of the client).
Statistics
The statistics section shows the overall database statistics. These are the statistics that the summary information is derived from. A list of the statistics maintained by the RDBMS kernel can be found in Appendix C of the Oracle Reference manual for the version being utilized. The format is identical from 8i to 9i.
Instance Activity Stats for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 Statistic Total per Second per Trans --------------------------------- ---------------- ------------ ------------ CPU used by this session 84,161 23.4 3,825.5 CPU used when call started 196,346 54.5 8,924.8 CR blocks created 709 0.2 32.2 DBWR buffers scanned 0 0.0 0.0 DBWR checkpoint buffers written 245 0.1 11.1 DBWR checkpoints 33 0.0 1.5 DBWR cross instance writes 93 0.0 4.2 DBWR free buffers found 0 0.0 0.0 ....Of particular interest are the following statistics.
- CPU USED BY THIS SESSION, PARSE TIME CPU or RECURSIVE CPU USAGE: These numbers are useful to diagnose CPU saturation on the system (usually a query tuning issue). The formula to calculate the CPU usage breakdown is:
Service (CPU) Time = other CPU + parse time CPU
Other CPU = "CPU used by this session" - parse time CPU
Some releases do not correctly store this data and can show huge numbers. The rule to decide if you can use these metrics is:
Trustworthy if :
(db version>= 8.1.7.2 and 9.0.1)
OR ((db version >= 9.0.1.1) = 8.0.6.0 AND not using job_queue_processes AND CPU_PER_CALL = default)
- DBWR BUFFERS SCANNED: the number of buffers looked at when scanning the lru portion of the buffer cache for dirty buffers to make clean. Divide by "dbwr lru scans" to find the average number of buffers scanned. This count includes both dirty and clean buffers. The average buffers scanned may be different from the average scan depth due to write batches filling up before a scan is complete. Note that this includes scans for reasons other than make free buffer requests.
- DBWR CHECKPOINTS: the number of checkpoints messages that were sent to DBWR and not necessarily the total number of actual checkpoints that took place. During a checkpoint there is a slight decrease in performance since data blocks are being written to disk and that causes I/O. If the number of checkpoints is reduced, the performance of normal database operations improve but recovery after instance failure is slower.
- DBWR TIMEOUTS: the number of timeouts when DBWR had been idle since the last timeout. These are the times that DBWR looked for buffers to idle write.
- DIRTY BUFFERS INSPECTED: the number of times a foreground encountered a dirty buffer which had aged out through the lru queue, when foreground is looking for a buffer to reuse. This should be zero if DBWR is keeping up with foregrounds.
- FREE BUFFER INSPECTED: the number of buffers skipped over from the end of the LRU queue in order to find a free buffer. The difference between this and "dirty buffers inspected" is the number of buffers that could not be used because they were busy or needed to be written after rapid aging out. They may have a user, a waiter, or being read/written.
- RECURSIVE CALLS: Recursive calls occur because of cache misses and segment extension. In general if recursive calls is greater than 30 per process, the data dictionary cache should be optimized and segments should be rebuilt with storage clauses that have few large extents. Segments include tables, indexes, rollback segment, and temporary segments.
NOTE: PL/SQL can generate extra recursive calls which may be unavoidable.
- REDO BUFFER ALLOCATION RETRIES: total number of retries necessary to allocate space in the redo buffer. Retries are needed because either the redo writer has gotten behind, or because an event (such as log switch) is occurring
- REDO LOG SPACE REQUESTS: indicates how many times a user process waited for space in the redo log buffer. Try increasing the init.ora parameter LOG_BUFFER so that zero Redo Log Space Requests are made.
- REDO WASTAGE: Number of bytes "wasted" because redo blocks needed to be written before they are completely full. Early writing may be needed to commit transactions, to be able to write a database buffer, or to switch logs
- SUMMED DIRTY QUEUE LENGTH: the sum of the lruw queue length after every write request completes. (divide by write requests to get average queue length after write completion)
- TABLE FETCH BY ROWID: the number of rows that were accessed by a rowid. This includes rows that were accessed using an index and rows that were accessed using the statement where rowid = 'xxxxxxxx.xxxx.xxxx'.
- TABLE FETCH BY CONTINUED ROW: indicates the number of rows that are chained to another block. In some cases (i.e. tables with long columns) this is unavoidable, but the ANALYZE table command should be used to further investigate the chaining, and where possible, should be eliminated by rebuilding the table.
- Table Scans (long tables) is the total number of full table scans performed on tables with more than 5 database blocks. If the number of full table scans is high the application should be tuned to effectively use Oracle indexes. Indexes, if they exist, should be used on long tables if less than 10-20% (depending on parameter settings and CPU count) of the rows from the table are returned. If this is not the case, check the db_file_multiblock_read_count parameter setting. It may be too high. You may also need to tweak optimizer_index_caching and optimizer_index_cost_adj.
- Table Scans (short tables) is the number of full table scans performed on tables with less than 5 database blocks. It is optimal to perform full table scans on short tables rather than using indexes.
IO Activity
IO ActivityInput/Output (IO) statistics for the instance are listed in the following sections/formats:
- Tablespace IO Stats for DB: Ordered by total IO per tablespace.
- File IO Stats for DB: Ordered alphabetically by tablespace, filename.In Oracle 8.1.7 many other columns were included as follow:
- Avg. Read / Second
- Avg. Blocks / Read
- Avg. Writes / Second
- Buffer Waits
- Avg. Buffer Waits / Milisecond
- Tablespace IO StatsTablespace IO Stats for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 ->ordered by IOs (Reads + Writes) desc Tablespace ------------------------------ Av Av Av Av Buffer Av Buf Reads Reads/s Rd(ms) Blks/Rd Writes Writes/s Waits Wt(ms) -------------- ------- ------ ------- ------------ -------- ---------- ------ PHASE_WORK_TS 138,361 38 0.0 3.9 6,859 2 0 0.0 OFFER_HISTORY_TS 24,714 7 0.0 4.0 0 0 0 0.0 ATTR1_TS 7,823 2 0.0 4.0 0 0 0 0.0 TEMP 886 0 0.0 20.1 1,147 0 0 0.0 SYSTEM 184 0 3.9 2.8 56 0 18 3.3

Note that Oracle considers average read times of greater than 20 ms unacceptable. If a datafile consistently has average read times of 20 ms or greater then:
- The queries against the contents of the owning tablespace should be examined and tuned so that less data is retrieved.
- If the tablespace contains indexes, another option is to compress the indexes so that they require less space and hence, less IO.
- The contents of that datafile should be redistributed across several disks/logical volumes to more easily accommodate the load.
- If the disk layout seems optimal, check the disk controller layout. It may be that the datafiles need to be distributed across more disk sets.
Buffer cache Activity Information
The buffer statistics are comprised of two sections:
- Buffer Pool Statistics:
This section can have multiple entries if multiple buffer pools are allocated. This section is in both 8i and 9i and is identical in both.
Buffer Pool Statistics for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 -> Pools D: default pool, K: keep pool, R: recycle pool Free Write Buffer Buffer Consistent Physical Physical Buffer Complete Busy P Gets Gets Reads Writes Waits Waits Waits - ----------- ------------- ----------- ---------- ------- -------- ---------- D 4,167 362,492 3,091 413 0 0 60
A baseline of the database's buffer pool statistics should be available to compare with the current statspack buffer pool statistics. A change in that pattern unaccounted for by a change in workload should be a cause for concern.- Buffer Wait Statistics:
This section shows a breakdown of each type of object waited for. This section follows the Instance Recovery Stats for DB in 9i and is identical to that in 8i.
Buffer wait Statistics for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 -> ordered by wait time desc, waits desc Tot Wait Avg Class Waits Time (cs) Time (cs) ------------------ ----------- ---------- --------- undo header 42 21 1 data block 18 6 0The above shows no real contention. Typically, when there is buffer contention, it is due to data block contention with large average wait times, like the example below:Buffer wait Statistics for DB: GLOVP Instance: glovp Snaps: 454 - 455 Tot Wait Avg Class Waits Time (cs) Time (cs) ------------------ ----------- ---------- --------- data block 9,698 17,097 2 undo block 210 1,225 6 segment header 259 367 1 undo header 259 366 1
Instance Recovery Statistics
This section was added in 9i and is useful for monitoring the recovery and redo information.

PGA Memory Statistics
This section was added in 9i and which helps when using the new model to allocate PGA in Oracle9i using PGA_AGGREGATE_TARGET.PGA Memory Stats for DB: S901 Instance: S901 Snaps: 2 -3 -> WorkArea (W/A) memory is used for: sort, bitmap merge, and hash join ops Statistic Begin (M) End (M) % Diff ----------------------------------- ---------------- ---------------- ---------- maximum PGA allocated 10.405 10.405 .00 total PGA allocated 7.201 7.285 1.17 total PGA inuse 6.681 6.684 .04
This section is particularly useful when monitoring session memory usage on Windows servers.
Enqueue Activity
An enqueue is simply a locking mechanism. This section is very useful and must be used when the wait event "enqueue" is listed in the "Top 5 timed events".
In 8i the section looks like this.
Enqueue activity for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 -> ordered by waits desc, gets desc Enqueue Gets Waits ---------- ------------ ---------- PS 2,632 716 ST 192 185 TM 973 184 TC 66 57 US 80 53 TS 68 46 TT 349 36 PI 56 32 HW 10 5 CF 275 3 DV 4 3 TX 499 1In 9i the section looks like this.

The most common lock waits are generally for:- TX - Transaction Lock: Generally due to application concurrency mechanisms, or table setup issues.
- TM - DML enqueue: Generally due to application issues, particularly if foreign key constraints have not been indexed.
- ST - Space management enqueue: Usually caused by too much space management occurring. For example: create table as select on large tables on busy instances, small extent sizes, lots of sorting, etc.
Undo (Rollback) Information
Undo (Rollback) information is provided in two sections. They are identical in both 8i and 9i and are self explanatory.
- Rollback Segment Stats
- Rollback Segment StorageIn 9i the following two sections are added to provide similar information on the System Managed Undo (SMU) tablespace. Both are self explanatory.
- Undo Segment Summary for DB
- Undo Segment Stats for DBThe examples below show typical performance problem related to Undo (rollback) segments:
- Rollback Segment Stats for DB
Rollback Segment Stats for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 ->A high value for "Pct Waits" suggests more rollback segments may be required Trans Table Pct Undo Bytes RBS No Gets Waits Written Wraps Shrinks Extends ------ ------------ ------- --------------- -------- -------- -------- 0 9.0 0.00 0 0 0 0 4 6,838.0 0.18 554,206 0 0 0 5 2,174.0 0.55 292,474 0 0 0 6 4,309.0 0.23 471,992 0 0 0 ....In this case, the PCT Waits on three of the rollback segments indicates that there is some minor contention on the rollbacks and that either another rollback or more space should be added.- Rollback Segment Storage for DB

If this is a consistent problem it may be that the optimal value should be raised.

This parameter, based in units of wall-clock seconds, is defined universally for all undo segments.
Use of UNDO_RETENTION can potentially increase the size of the undo segment for a given period of time, so the retention period should not be arbitrarily set too high. The UNDO tablespace still must be sized appropriately. The following calculation can be used to determine how much space a given undo segment will consume given a set value of UNDO_RETENTION.
Undo Segment Space Required = (undo_retention_time * undo_blocks_per_seconds)
As an example, an UNDO_RETENTION of 5 minutes (default) with 50 undo blocks/second (8k blocksize) will generate:
Undo Segment Space Required = (300 seconds * 50 blocks/ seconds * 8K/block) = 120 M
The retention information (transaction commit time) is stored in every transaction table block and each extent map block. When the retention period has expired, SMON will be signaled to perform undo reclaims, done by scanning each transaction table for undo timestamps and deleting the information from the undo segment extent map. Only during extreme space constraint issues will retention period not be obeyed.
Latch Information
Latch information is provided in the following three sections.
. Latch Activity
. Latch Sleep breakdown
. Latch Miss SourcesThis information should be checked whenever the "latch free" wait event or other latch wait events experience long waits.
- Latch Activity
Latch Activity for DB: PHS2 Instance: phs2 Snaps: 100 -104 ->"Get Requests", "Pct Get Miss" and "Avg Slps/Miss" are statistics for willing-to-wait latch get requests ->"NoWait Requests", "Pct NoWait Miss" are for no-wait latch get requests ->"Pct Misses" for both should be very close to 0.0 Pct Avg Pct Get Get Slps NoWait NoWait Latch Name Requests Miss /Miss Requests Miss ----------------------------- -------------- ------ ------ ------------ ------ KCL freelist latch 9,382 0.0 0 KCL lock element parent latch 15,500 0.0 0.0 0 KCL name table latch 3,340 0.0 0 Token Manager 12,474 0.0 0.0 0 active checkpoint queue latch 2,504 0.0 0 batching SCNs 114,141 0.0 0.0 0 begin backup scn array 6,697 0.0 0 cache buffer handles 1 0.0 0 cache buffers chains 1,056,119 0.1 0.2 6,303 0.0 cache buffers lru chain 104,996 0.0 4,078 0.0
This section is identical in both 8i and 9i.
This section is particularly useful for determining latch contention on an instance. Latch contention generally indicates resource contention and supports indications of it in other sections.Latch contention is indicated by a Pct Miss of greater than 1.0% or a relatively high value in Avg Sleeps/Miss.
While each latch can indicate contention on some resource, the more common latches to watch are:- cache buffer chains: Contention on this latch confirms a hot block issue. See Note 62172.1 'Understanding and Tuning Buffer Cache and DBWR in Oracle7, Oracle8, and Oracle8i' for a discussion of this phenomenon.
- shared pool: Contention on this latch in conjunction with reloads in the SQL Area of the library cache section indicates that the shared pool is too small. Contention on this latch indicates that one of the following is happening:
. The library cache, and hence, the shared pool is too small.
. Literal SQL is being used. See Note 62143.1 'Understanding and Tuning the Shared Pool for an excellent discussion of this topic.
. On versions 8.1.7.2 and higher, session_cached_cursors might need to be set. See enhancement bug 1589185 for details.
See Note 62143.1 Understanding and Tuning the Shared Pool in Oracle7, Oracle8, and Oracle8i for a good discussion on literal SQL and its impact on the shared pool and library cache.
- Latch Sleep breakdown

It is particularly useful in identifying library cache bugs as it provides latch child information not available in the previous two sections.
Search on the latch child name experiencing high misses or sleeps and you can often find the bug responsible.
It is identical in 8i and 9i.
Dictionary Cache Statistics
This is an interesting section to monitor but about which you can do very little as the only way to change the size of the dictionary cache is to change the shared pool size as the dictionary cache is a percentage of the shared pool. It is identical in 8i and 9i.

To confirm this, consistent values (not sporadic) in Pct Misses or Reloads in the Index row indicate that the buffer cache is too small. (No longer available in 9i.)
Values in Invalidations in the SQL Area indicate that a table definition changed while a query was being run against it or a PL/SQL package being used was recompiled.
SGA Memory Summary
This section provides a breakdown of how the SGA memory is used at the time of the report. It is useful to be able to track this over time. This section is identical in 8i and 9i.
SGA regions Size in Bytes ------------------------------ ---------------- Database Buffers 209,715,200 Fixed Size 103,396 Redo Buffers 104,873,984 Variable Size 423,956,480 ---------------- sum 738,649,060
