Hi,

Need your help on AWR report.

We have generated a AWR report on a production DB, here is the details.

With this report I have concluded that "The Memory Area is not being used Much (Shared Pool Area)". If I am right. then how we can utilized it efficiently.

Or else any observation/suggestion from your end.

You can conclude nothing from that snippet of a report. You need to upload the whole thing.

Wow! I'd love to have such databases. Everything's fine.
Yes, you could lower the SGA size but it you have no memory problem on your server, don't touch it.
Have a look at "Shared Pool Advisory" section to get the optimal value.

My guess is that the problem is a "the database is slow" problem, resulting in unfocused tuning where one picks a figure in a report that one does not like and attempts to "fix" it. If I were going to take this approach (which I strongly disagree with) I would look at the awful ratio of CPU time to waiting time. Muktha's database is losing 74.4% of db time hanging on user I/O. But without the whole report, one can do nothing.

Find the bits of the application that are running slow, trace the sessions involved and look at the tkprof to see where the time is being spent.

You can do what you like with the shared pool, and it will have zero effect. Zero.
Post the whole report, not just bits if it.
THere is a term for the tuning method based on trying to "fix" certain metrics whose value you don't like: "compulsive tuning disorder". It is supposed to be funny, but it does have some value. Look it up.

Can you not just Copy & Paste it onto this forum rather than attach? Don't forget to use the [CODE] tags to ensure readability.

The problem is not in the database, it is in the application.

Hi,

The report generated in HTML format, hence I am not able to copy past in the forum in correct order.
If any specific topic you want, then I could do, sorry again.

Hi Michel,

I understood that, there is problem in application side. But could you please suggest the solutions?


Also, why the shared pool memory is not being used much.

Thanks and Regards
Muktha

Cookiemonster gave you some advice: find a problematic session and enable SQL trace on it. This will tell you where the time is being spent.

You can upload a 2MB file. So zip up the html file, give it a .txt suffix (you can't upload .zip files), and load it up. Do the same with the text version.

Another point is to find SQL with high execution numbers and check if they are executed in a loop.

It is also for a 10.2.0.5 database, and you said in your title that this was 12c.
And you have truncated a lot of the necessary information by converting it to Word.

You really do make it hard for anyone to assist Smile

"HVBE_BillDet_Aggregate" (highest in Elapse time, cpu time, gets) is, with no doubt, the highest consummer, review its code, check it does not execute "SELECT REFERENCEID, STDOFFSET..." (I think it is sql_id 8bzsha6wx7saj) in a loop when it can avoid it...

Hopefully those that have written the code has tagged it with module name, so you can easily get all statements it executes just searching for "HVBE_BILLDET_AGGREGATE" in the report.

Hi John,

Thanks for the reply,

Sorry for wrongly mentioned the Version Name.

The output was in HTML format only, but I wanted to hide important info, hence I converted that into word format.

Hi Michel,

Thanks for the reply,

You are right, that the module "HVBE_BILLDET_AGGREGATE" is high in Elapse time, cpu time, gets. But this module shows different sql operation ever where in the report eg- Delete, Insert, Select... so how we can consider this is a repeated statement, if I am not wrong.

With the below mentioned query we can come to know the number of executions. Am I right.

select a.sql_id, a.ratio, a.executions
from  
(
  select sql_id, buffer_gets / executions ratio, executions
  from v$sql
  where executions > 10
  order by 2 desc
) a
where rownum <= 10


Thanks and Regards

See "SQL ordered by Executions" section in your report.

I don't see any information about hard parsing. Without bind variables, the same SQL with different values would consume more time to hard parse than compared to soft parse. Or, am I missing something?

Example:
For cur in (select object_name from user_objects) loop
  insert into my table values (cur.object_name);
end loop;

No parse, not even soft parse, just many useless executions.

Neither RAM nor CPU is a bottleneck, so what is left as source of the slowness?

post FULL results from SQL below

Hi All,

Yes, I Agree there could be problem in Application only.

But where it is? I am trying to find out the reason from that AWR report.

I am not having access to that particular DB, need to check with that AWR report only.

The problem appears to be that a particular query is run more than necessary. So you need to find that query in the application code and see if that code is really running the code as much as needed, or if it's inefficiently running the query too much.

I think it is legitimate to ask the requester of the investigation to trace the slow process of the application (with binds and waits), using

1. Something like this

ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS '10046 trace name context forever, level 12';


2. or this:

EXEC DBMS_MONITOR.session_trace_enable(session_id =>1234, serial_num=>1234, waits=>TRUE, binds=>FALSE);



Or any other way you like.

By the way, I downloaded your file, changed the extension to HTML or to DOC - it never showed anything which is not Gibberish.

Andrey R.

Hi.

1. Parse CPU to Parse Elapsd %: 10.31 is quite low, so your application probably generates a lot of SQL statements without bind variables - you will have to rewrite it.

2. You have to generate/post TKPROF reports for all "heavy" processes:
BEGIN HVBE_BillDet_Aggregate(:...
BEGIN DAILYREADINGSUMMARYAGGR
BEGIN DAILYREADINGSUMMARYTODO_...
BEGIN FlatConfigAttribute_Etl(...

ETC.

1. No, if it was true there would be more hard parses and so more CPU consumed. See %Non-Parse CPU statistic 99.95%, and Execute to Parse 86.43%, so few parses. Also, look at the SQL statements in the report and try to find those with constants.

IMHO - Parse CPU to Parse Elapsd = 10% means that parsed statements are WAITING for a parse (latches?) and probably - some serialization occurrs.
2. AWR does NOT catch "short" statements, so no reason to look there at all.

The total elapsed time on parsing was only 622 seconds, 0.07% of DBRime. So even reducing it to zero will make no difference.
The problem (in the absence of any knowledge of what issues users are facing: an important bit of information that has not been revealed) would seem to be the 72% of DB Time spent on single block reads.
Looking at the SQL ordered by reads, there re three SELECT statements that together were responsible for about one third of this disc I/O. One of them executed three times, the other two did not even finish. If it were my database, I would look at those statements. Perhaps they are using indexed loop joins when scanned hash joins would be better, for example.

9 out of 10 performance problems on an Oracle database eventually work their way back to one or more SQL statements that are performing badly. Your system (no system for that matter) is immune to this generality, so the likelihood is that it too has SQL somewhere that is performing poorly and is in dire need of tuning.

This is why the excellent advice has been given to find that SQL and tune it. Using AWR, locate the expensive SQL, generate query plans for them, then analyze them to try and see where they are going bad. If you can identify these SQL statements and provide us with the plans and other necessary information (which we can tell you what is needed), this team can help you tune those.

It is certainly possible that there is something other than SQL that is causing your poor performance but it is not as likely as a SQL problem.

Additionally, if you have been given the task of fixing this "problem" then it is utterly unrealistic to think it can be fixed without access to the actual database that exhibits the problem. You need to go back to whoever gave you the assignment and tell them you want access to the database or else you can't spend any time on it. You won't get anywhere with it otherwise. The access you need must include SELECT ANY DICTIONARY and SELECT on any tables that are part of the application, and the ability to generate query plans with at the least, using EXPLAIN PLAN, and RESOUCE privilege in a schema where you can create your own tables (in order to check results after you change things). You have to have an environment to manipulate that exhibits the problem or you are wasting your time if your goal is to actually fix something.


Good luck. Kevin
