If your purpose is overall trend analysis, something like orca_oracle ( http://www.hoopoes.com/cs/orca/ <http://www.hoopoes.com/cs/orca/> ) may be of use to you (disclosure: I wrote it) It requires some perl knowledge to make the best use of, but will retain the headline stats from perfstat for a long time for trend analysis. _____ From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of BN Sent: 08 September 2006 16:57 To: _oracle_L_list Subject: Saving STATSPACK Reports Greetings, Have oracle 8.1.7.4 <http://8.1.7.4> , 9iRel2, and 10g Database running on HP-UX, AIX, and SUN servers We run Statspack every hour on all the prod servers and reatin only this weeks data, the rest of the data is purged. I am looking for a way to save the previous reports, like run spreport every hour from cron job and pull reports every hour automatically. I was also thinking of exporting the perfstat schema from all the 50 DB prod servers and saving them in some other database Not sure If run into resource issues to this. Appreciate your suggestions in advance. If some body has a script to do this I apppreciate if you can share with me. -- Regards & Thanks BN ============================================================================== Please access the attached hyperlink for an important electronic communications disclaimer: http://www.credit-suisse.com/legal/en/disclaimer_email_ib.html ==============================================================================
