Top 3 Oracle DBA SQL Scripts
Currently I have 68 SQL scripts that were battle tested on a very busy database serving a popular internet site. However if you asked me what are the TOP 3 sql scripts that I consider most useful – I would say it’s the scripts that allow me to Monitor ASH, LOCKS and SPACE. Because if you have all three areas covered to the point that it only takes you a few seconds to answer questions such as:
- What is eating up all our space in the last 15 minutes?
- What happened to the 800GB of free space we added last month?
- What was causing all the TX locks 3 hours ago?
- What SQL caused race condition and where did it come from?
- How many sessions were blocked on row contention this morning?
- Why did the analytics report take 4 times longer to complete last night?
- What was the database doing at 3am this morning that consumed almost all I/O bandwidth on the storage?
- Where did the flood of traffic come from? Was it front-end cluster of nodes or back-end DW jobs?
then your life as an Oracle DBA is much easier than a DBA next door!
