Has anybody used the Capacity Planner (SYSMAN) part of OEM? We are trying to monitor usage of the Application Server, and have the repository set up to do so. However, I can't quite figure out what "busy servers" means. The number of busy servers is always very low, and doesn't seem to correlate with the number of web server processes (ifweb60), reflected as PIDs in the database activity. Is a server busy just when it is, at the precise second of sampling, responding to a user's request? That's what it's starting to seem like. And if this is the case, how do I get a good idea of what the actual load on the application server is?

I realize this is a DB list, but maybe somebody has some expertise since it is, after all, an OEM-related question. (Do real DBAs use OEM?)

Thanks for any help you can offer,
Leslie
