Resource Activity

The Resource Activityreport is next.  This is another new section for the Oracle10g AWRRPTover the old STATSPACK type reports. The following listing shows an example of the Resource report:

Resource Limit Stats  DB/Inst: SSD/ssd2  Snap: 4
-> only rows with Current or Maximum Utilization > 80% of Limit are shown
-> ordered by resource name
 

                                  Current      Maximum     Initial
Resource Name                   Utilization  Utilization Allocation   Limit
------------------------------ ------------ ------------ ---------- ----------
gcs_resources                           640      106,592     106592     106592
gcs_shadows                          36,610       91,052     106592     106592
ges_procs                                24          149        151        151
processes                                24          150        150        150
sessions                                 28          154        170        170
          -------------------------------------------------------------

In the report section in the above listing, the various systems related GCS and  GES limits are available. If it appears that the environment is approaching one of the limits, the DBA may need to perform analysis and tuning to correct it.

The next section of the report simply shows the initialization parameters that are different from the default settings. This is not really important except with regard to tuning activities, so it will be skipped. After the initialization parameter section, the AWRRPT report adds a global enqueuestatistics section. This section appears earlier in the report lineup in a STATSPACK report. The following shows a partial listing of this report section:

The report section in the above is more useful for monitoring and tuning the RAC interconnect environment; however, its values can help determine if the interconnect is being stressed. The stress on the interconnect will show itself as high values for the various time parameters shown in the Global Enqueue Statisticsreport section of the AWRRPT report.
