I think I got fooled might be, the way it's written there in the script is making all programs like say e.g. from perl_at_machine1(TNS V1-V3) to TNS(VN-VN). So it seems most of the occurrences were from application and few were from the Rman backup(which was basically archive log backup that lasted for only 10-15minutes).

 But again as i see in the oem exadata performance grid , out of ~9 databases hosted in same box none of them were showing much activity during that period , however the hard disk utilization went from <20% to ~80% mostly by the activity logged against database "_OTHER_DATABASE_" and few were from "ASM". These two are showing up in oem disk IO performance tab apart from those ~9 application databases which are hosted in that exadata box. I am not sure if oracle is just representing or adding these two additional names in the disk IO performance grid but these are not really databases but are responsible for maintaining those ~9 databases. So wondering , how can i dig into further to see what exactly this "_OTHER_DATABASE_" is ? and what activity was happening in this which endup consuming ~80% disk IO and thus impacting application.

CASE WHEN a.session_type = 'BACKGROUND' OR REGEXP_LIKE(a.program, '.*\([PJ] \d+\)') THEN
REGEXP_REPLACE(SUBSTR(a.program,INSTR(a.program,'(')), '\d', 'n') ELSE
'('||REGEXP_REPLACE(REGEXP_REPLACE(a.program, '(.*)_at_(.*)(\(.*\))', '\1'), ' \d', 'n')||')'
END || ' ' program2
