Have you tried running SQL trace (10046)? Oracle support search yields the following information:

Bug 12842402  "enq: SV - contention" using ORDERED Sequences in RAC

So, are your sequences ordered? Ordered sequences have been a bane of RAC application since the time immemorial, since Oracle 8i and OPS. Also, do you have any enq HW waits? It's a high water mark wait, a sign that your sequence cache is too small. In any case, I would run 10046 trace on the application. AWR and oracle-l are not sufficient in this case.

Hi,

Hi,

On Exadata RAC database 12.1.0.2.0  we have problems with queries:

SELECT schema.sequence_name.NEXTVAL
FROM DUAL CONNECT BY ROWNUM <= :v1

huge waits on Foreground Events:
Event Waits Total Wait Time (sec) Wait Avg(ms) % DB time Wait Class
DB CPU 2.1M 37.5
resmgr:cpu quantum 1.1E+08 1.2M 11.21 21.6 Scheduler
enq: SV - contention 83,224,234 1.1M 12.91 18.8 Other

I know that is BUG but fix has been included in 12.1.0.1

Anyone has a experience with this type of event?
A lot of CPU has been consume by these sessions .

Regards,
Pawel
