We are using the 11g AMM feature and Memory_Target set to 96GB and total RAM on the Server is 128GB Now the top and free shows up only 200MB memory free on the system.
There are 2 process dbw0 and dbw1 which consumes the top memory and this is 30GB per dbw.
Why is the dbw process taking up so much memory when there is not much load on the database.
we have 96GB Memory on the UNIX server and 85% of its usage shows oracle processes I want to determine which Oracle processes are taking most of the memory
SGA is around 36G
SGA_TARGET is 40G
PGA is around 4G
the total of around 40-45 GB of usage is understandable but what other oracle process are chewing up the remaining 30-40 GB on the server is not known

Is there any way to tune the following query using lot of CPU:-select description,time_stamp,user_id from bhi_tracking where description like 'Multilateral:%'The explain plan for this is query is:-

Bhi_tracking is used for reporting purpose and contain millions of records.Generally we keep one year data in this table and delete the remaining.Can I drop the table after taking export and then import it back or can i truncatethe table and then insert the rows into it to enhancethe performance.
I have two tables with same columns(15 of them), I am trying to find difference between two tables using minus operator and then insert in stage table using below code
Issue is table1 has 50 million records
table2 is empty
so when first time when we execute this v_collection1,v_collection2 collection will have 50 million records in it which will go in memory, I think this is not good, because going in memory will eat memory and resources while sorting and other activities ?
After fetching records in collection we are inserting that in stage table and then COMMIT so i think that wont be good because committing 50 million will generate large amount of redo?
below is snippet of my code
DECLARE
type lst_collection1
IS
TABLE OF table1.col1%type INDEX BY binary_integer;
type lst_collection2

I am aware that from 11g, memory_target is sufficient for memeory management between SGA and PGA.
what happens if MEMORY_TARGET set to non-zero and SGA_TARGET set to zero values in a 11g database? Does it enable automatic memory management within the SGA?
We regularly hit by ORA-4031 errors. Also, memory_target advisory (v$memory_target_advice) does not show any advisory information.
for eg:
memory_max_target = 500m
memory_target = 500m
and
sga_max_size=500m
sga_target=0
I have a question regarding memory parameters in oracle database 9.2.0.8, especially sga_max_size and db_cache_size. Database server has 32G of ram. Oracle parameter on server shmmax is set to 16G. Is reasonable to set sga_max_size to the same value, and db_cache_size to 80% of that size?

We are running Oracle Apps 11i on Windows 2003 R2 Enterprise SP2 (32 bit). After enabling /3GB switch parameter in Boot.ini file, the OS recognizes the 8GB RAM and consumes it upto 5.6GB during non-peak hours but as workload increases in evening when end users generate auto receipts the same memory usage ratio reaches upto 6GB resulting the OS gets hang and don't respond at all. Inspite of having 2GB free memory it doesn't consume it. We have to shut down it by pressing the power off button and restart it
The system configuration is as under:
HP ProLiant DL380 G6
Intel Xeon 2.4 GHz
8GB RAM (4 x 2 GB)
After the reboots each system was using around 30 GB of memory... now that it's been up for a week memory is up to 98GB used on each system. None of the systems are swapping.

In a 3-node RAC setup; one node is showing high CPU utilization around 40~50%. The CPU utilization was less than 20% 10 days back but from 9th oldest day it jumped and consistently shows the double figure. I ran AWR reports on all three nodes and found one node with high CPU utilization and shows below tops events-

Findings:-
On AWR report(file attached) for node= sipd207; we can see that "RFS PING" wait event takes 30% of the waits and "log file sequential read" wait event takes 30% of the waits that occurs in database.
1)Are these symptoms of undersized log buffer?
2)I feel Network wait can be reduced by tweaking SDU & TDU values based on MDU.

I came across situation where a Nullable column is not using index for 'order by' clause. I added Not Null condition in the 'where' condition but it wasn't useful. I don't wanted to make composite index with not nullable column or with constant or modify column to 'Not Null'
So I carried out test cases and during which I found that in one case the sql statement does 'fast full scan' for data access but does not use index for 'order by' sorting
here are the steps
Initially I kept the column Nullable

Questions are
1) Why adding 'where id is not null wasn't enough for the index to get used in 'order by'?
2) While we got 'fast full scan' why index wasn't used for 'order by' clause?
3) Do we need the indexed column in where clause for being used in 'order by clause' too?
4) Do we need 'order by' clause if we are selecting only the indexed column with sequence generated values?
I am using 11g version, and trying to understand the Memory Allocation.
1) The new feature Memory target parameters are dynamic? is in it? But when I set with the ALTER SYSTEM... it was not changed, then I had to restart the DB.
2) With the new 2 parameters (MEMORY_MAX_TARGET, MEMORY_TARGET), the SGA_MAX_SIZE parameter should be 0, right? But in my case, the SGA_MAX_SIZE value is automatically assigned.
I am trying to run a trace file with TKPROF. It throws an error :
MEMORY FAULT
The size of the trace file is 8MB. I tried with some other file trace files bigger in size (10MB) than the above file, it works fine. I tried seeing any permission right is required on that trace file is required for the tkprof to excute, but it has got the same permissions like the other trace files.
The problem is that it is not showing any error number or any other Error Description other than "MEMORY FAULT".
I have few queries on PGA memory management.Since these queries are based on 2-3 examples not exactly same by nature I am summarising it after my understanding for the same
As I understand many workareas can be allocated to a single sql statement and number and sizes of theses workareas is controlled internally by Oracle when Automatic Memory management (PGA_aggregate_target and workarea_size_policy=Auto are set) Since many sessions share the PGA memory, the amount of memory available to each session may vary and if less amount of memory is available for a session for sorting then TEMP tablespace is used
[1] Can we say paging happens and can be checked at this time?
[2] Is there a difference in handling memory while populating pl/sql tables?
As I have encountered ora-04030 while some our developers were populating pl/sql tables but never encountered this error for sorting, hash joins etc Though I don't remember the width of pl/sql table, I am sure the developer used 'LIMIT' clause during bulk collect and still faced the issue.
With a single session on the server, I noticed that the difference in values displayed issuing 'free' command in linux and output values from sesstat did not match at all while there wasn't any heavy OS process involved during the period. I was expecting 'used' and 'free' values displayed by free command (linux) will change and difference would be approximately equals 'before and after values of session pga memory.
[3] Isn't it expected to match?
[4] Can we say in dedicated server, at any moment of time, the SUM of 'session pga memory' represents all the memory used by Oracle SGA, at that point of time?
select sum(value)/1024/1024 "memory in MB" from v$sesstat where statistic#=20;
During one of the tests I got following output (divide value by 10 for my visibility and avoid formatting)
SQL> select a.name, to_char(b.value/10, '999,999,999') value
from v$statname a, v$mystat b
where a.statistic# = b.statistic#
and a.name like '%ga memory%'; 2 3 4
[code]...
The above query is showing above values even when the pl/sql block execution is completed 30 minutes back
[5] Do we call this as 'memory leak' where memory is not released even while some time has passed since session has done something?Of course I am not checking at OS level as mentioned in question [3] above the values won't match!
Still the output of free command for reference(After the pl/sql block executed)

What is the difference between these two tuning exercises? I understand that an instance is memory based structures (logical) where as database consists of physical structures.
However, how does one tune a database the physical structure? Does it have to do with file placements/block sizes etc. Would you agree that a lot of that is taken care by ASM now in 11g? What tools are required/available (third party as well as oracle supplied) for these types of tuning scenarios?
