Hi,

Thanks for all your comments / suggestions.

Charles / Steve,

Thanks for ur guidance.

I am just starting / want to interpret the statspack / AWR Report. So, Please check whether my observations are correct, regarding the AWR Report.

  1. I tried to guess with the "11,529", what you have mentioned. It is one of the 'Top 5 Timed Events' and its the first one, 'db file sequential read'. Is the problem with the index ? Should i increase the value of PGA AGGREGATE TARGET parameter ?.
  2. Also, one of the other 'Top 5 Timed Events' is, 'Backup: sbtwrite2', which you have mentioned. Though it is one of the performance degrade, i think it cant be the actual problem, as it is listed last and any backup process will take time. Also, comparitively, 'db file sequential read' looks to be high. Comparing the above 2 values, Is this due more full table scans / proper indexes are not created ?
  3. Execute to Parse %: 45.10 Parses: 8.93 25.45 Hard parses: 0.19 0.55 Comparing, Looks to be very less. Does this mean that, many sql are used, which are not used frequently ?
  4. Looking at the data present in IO Status (Tablespace IO Stats and File IO Stats ), looks like there are more reads on Materialized Views. Should we try to tune those Materialized Views ?

5. While seeing the init.ora Parameters, the parameters here are not according to 10g defaults, it looks like they are according to 9i defaults ( recently

migrated from 9i to 10g ).
  I. I found one parameter that needs to be changed -

  1. optimizer_mode : should be changed from 'choose' to 'all_rows', correct ?
  2. db_file_multiblock_read_count : i came to know that, this value should not be set in oracle 10g, i.e., remove this parameter from init.ora file. correct ? II. Any other parameters that are needed to be changed ?

6. Charles Question : if the disk subsystem is reading on average about 24MB per second and writing on average about 15MB per second, what happens when the

11,529 (roughly 370 per second) single block 8KB reads occur during query execution? Do those 11,529 single block reads occur immediately, or must they

queue behind other read and write requests as well as wait for the drive heads to relocate over the correct location on the physical disk?

My Guess : Those 11,529 single block reads will wait requesting for next read/write, since block size is 8KB ( db_block_size : 8192 )

                  Correct ?
