I am actually having the same probs now there is a database which is is getting froze for a few secs nobody can login but we did not know what time this was occuring. set a recording thro 9i for every sec later we came to know it was due to cache buffer chain. almost 90 to 100 people were waiting on latch free wait issue. Found that all the users are running the same sql with the same data requests. Looks like we have to tune the sql.Yet to analyze the sqls.

If the database is hung, the waits will likely show up immediately. I've had similar problems with waits on a latch that hung the database. If a session is hung, the waits should be there the first time you query. It may also be that you can't even query the v$ views, in which case you must resort to the state dumps.

If nothing works and when u know the database has frozen u can run the following command to take dump of the database so that u can send it to oracle for analyzing or u can analyze it too. As jared says keep querying the session_Wait u will defnetly bound to catch the guy who might be causing the database to kneel down. Are u flushing shared pool quite frequently. check this out(this was one of the cause which was bringing the database down and was fixed in 7.2 or 7.3 i INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
