Hello Jonathan,
I did.. 19.12 running on OCI (Oracle Cloud)
First execution
SQL> select sys_guid() from all_tables where rownum <= 5;
SYS_GUID()

obs: running the query again with / I got these same guids above
then disconnect and reconnect another session
Second execution (new session):

SYS_GUID()

I put out a tweet yesterday (
https://twitter.com/JLOracle/status/1443302780266029061 ;) about
sys_guid() and the different pattern of results you could get depending on
the platform you were running on. The most recent check I had done was
12.1.0.2, and I don't have access to anything other than OEL 7.9 at the
moment to check more recent versions.
It would be nice if a few people could run the following query on their
systems and report the results, along with O/S, for 19c to see if there are
stll differences.
Here's my result from 19.11
SQL> select sys_guid() from all_tables where rownum <= 5;
SYS_GUID()
--------------------------------
CD47CA7FBE987B90E0530100007FE7D5
CD47CA7FBE997B90E0530100007FE7D5
CD47CA7FBE9A7B90E0530100007FE7D5
CD47CA7FBE9B7B90E0530100007FE7D5
CD47CA7FBE9C7B90E0530100007FE7D5
5 rows selected.
Almost simultaneously from another session
SYS_GUID()
--------------------------------
CD47CB493173114BE0530100007FA8A8
CD47CB493174114BE0530100007FA8A8
CD47CB493175114BE0530100007FA8A8
CD47CB493176114BE0530100007FA8A8
CD47CB493177114BE0530100007FA8A8
This seems to have a sequential component tied to the session (possibly
to the moment the session connected** rather than the session id). If you
follow the links in the tweet you'll find that Oracle on Windows used to
produce very random-looking leading values
you reconnect once per session and run t
** If I reconnect once per session then the 7th digit of the guid
increments by 1.
