Greetings Please see the sql and the out put, have a few questions (Orale 8.1.7.4 and 9i Rel2, will be doing the same for 10g also): Want to send this as a report for DEV team on how we are doing with DB: I am calculating per minute values. STATSPACK Report shows these values, but I have to pull the report every hour and compile them to show this info. 1. Am I doing it right 2. Is it efficent or is there a better way to do this 3. See some negative values, I am guessing the previous values were higher than the present, what do I do in such cases 4, Does the numbers make sense or am I wasting my time on this 5. If this is OK, planning to add CPU used by this session, db block gets, consistent gets, physical reads 6. How can I add consistent gets+ db block get to show LIO 7. Does it make sense to put these values in columns, if Yes, How Apprecite your Help ** *select snap_time, name, round( (value -lag(value) over (order by s.snap_id) )/ round( (SNAP_TIME - lag(SNAP_TIME) over (ORDER BY s.snap_id))* 1440 * 60/60,0), 0) "Per Min" from stats$sysstat s, stats$snapshot t where -- trunc(t.SNAP_TIME)=trunc(sysdate) and s.SNAP_ID=t.SNAP_ID and name = 'user commits' UNION ALL select snap_time, name, round( (value -lag(value) over (order by s.snap_id) )/ round( (SNAP_TIME - lag(SNAP_TIME) over (ORDER BY s.snap_id))* 1440 * 60/60,0), 0) "Per Min" from stats$sysstat s, stats$snapshot t where -- trunc(t.SNAP_TIME)=trunc(sysdate) and s.SNAP_ID=t.SNAP_ID and name = 'user rollbacks' UNION ALL select snap_time, name, round( (value -lag(value) over (order by s.snap_id) )/ round( (SNAP_TIME - lag(SNAP_TIME) over (ORDER BY s.snap_id))* 1440 * 60/60,0), 0) "Per Min" from stats$sysstat s, stats$snapshot t where -- trunc(t.SNAP_TIME)=trunc(sysdate) and s.SNAP_ID=t.SNAP_ID and name = 'physical writes' ORDER BY SNAP_TIME, NAME /* OutPut : SNAP_TIME NAME Per Min ------------------- -------------------- ---------- 09/07/2007 09:24:19 physical writes user commits user rollbacks 09/07/2007 09:49:58 physical writes 6985 user commits 1128 user rollbacks 358 ... 10/24/2007 10:39:50 physical writes -5782 user commits -1336 user rollbacks -876 10/25/2007 08:18:29 physical writes 2370 user commits 1665 user rollbacks 2750 10/25/2007 08:24:13 physical writes 1127 user commits 2159 user rollbacks 3927 10/25/2007 08:32:39 physical writes 752 # After the Vender Patch user commits 1374 user rollbacks 2777 10/26/2007 08:00:04 physical writes 73 user commits 427 user rollbacks 1416 10/26/2007 09:00:05 physical writes 182 user commits 696 user rollbacks 2104 10/26/2007 10:00:05 physical writes 203 user commits 454 user rollbacks 1512 - Regards & Thanks BN
