This type of request is entirely too common. The problem is that measuring
the "performance" of an Oracle system isn't like measuring the performance
of a car in the Indy 500 by timing laps, but that is typically the
perception of those asking. At my last employer, we developed

currently working on producing statistics for mid-managers. We have a lot

Keep the report short, just a page once a week, and have three key things
highlighted -- your most important measurements of performance. People like
to skim a report and focus on a few key things.
A good idea for these metrics just might be the three most critical business

Good Morning Everyone!
My management wants a chart that shows the performance of the
database. If this was your boss, what would you show them?

On a more serious note, I have had to do this for my damagement team at a
previous engagement.
They wanted a shell script to execute every 15 minutes, tell them how many
users were logged in (up to 2,500), and the timing for a simple query on
some customer table, for which they had benchmarked re
Give your damagers a Quest Spotlight monitor ! It has all the nice gui stuff
that damagers like to see, and they feel good about it. Plus it is different
colours, which gives them the illusion they actually know what is going on
inside and lets them think they are in control !
As for you, set up

Tom - I like your style! Hit 'em when they are asking for it. If he just
wants some color charts printed
LOL! But I'm already in the doghouse, so I don't think
they'd see it as funny!

Can I say that?

Anything looking resolutely optimistic. Seriously, it means nothing. A database is not
'performant' per se, it's just layers of software easing the coding work to access and
concurrently update data stored in file (sorry to be so down to earth). If developers
have done a bad job, it will be slo

Is your management looking for real-time charts or are they looking for higher-level scorecard-like info (i.e.. number of transactions yesterday, last 7 days, yada yada yada?)

Mike,
Get him the free version of Quests "Spotlight on Oracle". Puts a pretty
interactive chart up on his screen. Green means good. Yellow means caution,
Pink means almost danger. Red means bad.
This should be a good start for him! :)
