Hi All!

Is it possible to create triger on the various tables and views exists (i.e. dynamic performance views) in data dictionary, when ever any DML operations performs by Oracle it self? If it is possible how and if not why it is not?

I have particular criteria for each case (i.e. Sessions, File States, Progress of Job and Tasks, Locks, Backup Status, Memory Usgae and Allocation, System and Session Parameters, SQL Executions). Is it possible to fire triggers, for example if Any memory segment is used 80% of allocated memory then it should fire.

I hope I am able to make it clear.

No.

This is example is not a good one (or explain what you mean), anyway create a job that periodically checks what you want to check.

If your goal is to avoid excessive resource usage you should use better use one of the following:

  • Resource Parameters of User Profile
  • Database Resource Manager

Hi!

I want to write a triger, when any new record is inserted to Outstanding alerts DBA_OUTSTANDING_ALERTS, i want to execute the trigger content. This is one of the example.

Regards,
Bhavin

Hi - I can answer your last question regarding dba_outstanding_alerts. The alert system is based on advanced queueing: mmon raises alerts by enqueuing a message to the sys.alert_que queue. You need to write an alert handler which will subscribe to the queue and do something when a message arrives. The PL/SQL isn't that difficult, though you do need to understand advanced queueing. Read up on it, and have a go.
