New White Paper: "Killing An Oracle Session"

A new white paper entitled "Killing An Oracle Session" is available for retrieval from the RevealNet website (http://www.revealnet.com). Format: html Author: Mike Ault ("Oracle 7 Administration & Management")

DESCRIPTION: At some point an Oracle administrator will be forced to terminate non-essential Oracle sessions, or will have to conduct a shutdown regardless of database activity. This is known as killing an Oracle session. Non-essential Oracle sessions typically consist of active terminal sessions left connected by end users. These active sessions cause problems when the database is shutdown for backup or maintenance operations, because so long as there is an active session, a normal mode shutdown will hang waiting for the session to end.
