Hi List,
DB 8.1.7.4.0 on Sun sparc solaris 2.6
This is oracle applications 11.5.4
One of the program was running for very long time. So checked out
v$session_wait for that perticular session. It was waiting on 'latch free'
and from P2 column and v$latch, found out that it is waiting for library
cache latch.
Now docs says this is related to shared pool fragmentation. So checked
v$sgastat where it showed 38M space free in the shared pool (Total shared
pool is 800 MB). But it didnt throw ORA-4031 and the process was running for
last 17 hours. I looked at v$librarycache and v$latchholder but didn't get
any clue.
At last, I flushed the shared pool but still that session was waiting on
same wait event. Finally I had to kill the session. I am facing this
situation once or twice in production and everytime I can't kill the
session.
Can somebody tell me how should I debug furthur and go to the root cause of the problem. Does this mean I need to increse the shared pool ? CURSOR_SHARING is kept to FORCE.
Thanks,
~Dilip
