Enqueue dump and a clarification

Hi:

  I know some of my friends in this group think that dumps and trying to read them is a waste of time. For others I have a question. I had an enqueue situation in my place. I can find and did find the info in the v$session_wait and all the related views to findout that the enqueue was a TX, the Rollback segment number and Slot number etc. 2 sessions were waiting on TX for a shared lock. I thought will do an enqueue dump. This is the snippet of the enqueue dump.

When I go and see in the v$session wait the sessions that are waiting are in TX - Level 4. Usually its for an ITL (Most of the times). My question is those which have a WAT status in the above dump are they waiting for the ITL slots (TX lock with Status S). If it were waiting with a Status of X then its waiting for a specific row and its a row lock. The parameter points to Rollback segment 139 wrap# 60. When I dumped the value in it I found that its a undo header. So does this mean that the ITL slots got full in a block and a transaction was chosen randomly and these transactions are waiting on it? Because here I see 2 transactions waiting on the Rollback segment slot (331,499)

Any help is appreciated. Received on Mon Dec 04 2000 - 08:32:45 CST
