Hey all,
We recently had a problem with a 3rd-party app getting "ORA-1000 max open
cursors exceeded" on their 8.1.7.4 DB. Since OPEN_CURSORS is set to 500 in
the init.ora -- should be more than generous for a tiny app on a tiny DB --
we started looking into how many cursors the app actually has open at any
given time.
While investigating this, I see that the number of rows in V$OPEN_CURSORS
isn't consistent with the value of stat 3 ("opened cursors current") of
V$SESSSTAT. Of the two processes I looked at, each had a V$SESSSTAT value
of "3" for stat 3, while the first had a single entry in V$OPEN_CURSOR and
the second had four.
Should these values match? I looked on Metalink but was unable to find any
reference to the relationship between these, other than a forum article
where the OraSupport person was extraordinarily unhelpful.
TIA,
Rich
