Hi all, can anyone tell me, if the Oracle PID has to be the same as the Windos process id ?
I ran the following script, to find ou, if a hanging process is still connected to the database: select substr(a.spid,1,5) pid, substr(b.sid,1,5) sid, substr(b.serial#,1,5) ser#, machine box, substr(b.username,1,10) username, -- b.server, substr(b.osuser,1,8) os_user, substr(b.program,1,30) program from v$session b, v$process a where b.paddr = a.addr and type='USER' order by spid; PID SID SER# BOX USERNAME OS_USER PROGRAM ----- ----- ----- ----------------------------------------------- ---------- -------- ------------------------------ 00111 58 10121 networkname xx xxxxxxx C:\myexe.exe If find the process myexe.exe on networkname in the taskmanager the PID is : 478 (HEX 1DE). The database is on a separate server in the network.
