RE: MTS v$session
Title: MTS v$session First question I would have is Why does a user have access to V$SESSIONS in the first place? Dick GouletSenior Oracle DBAOracle Certified 8i DBA -Original Message-From: Wiegand, Kurt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 11:19 AMTo: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-LSubject: MTS v$session I've got an 8.1.7.4.0 instance running under Solaris 2.8. I've never worked with MTS before, but got a call from a user telling me that there were about 700 rows in v$session but they only had about 130 sessions open. The user believes that when the session is ended, v$session doesn't (or doesn't always) get cleaned up. Does anyone have any insight into this? Thanks. I checked v$process and had about 89 rows, which matched exactly to the 89 unix processes that I had on the box. I looked at paddr in v$session and saw that there were just over 100 rows pointing to each of the 6 dispatchers. The other rows each had their own dedicated process. I checked v$dispatcher and saw the 100+ values in the OWNED column, but also saw values between 300 - 450 in the CREATED column. I really don't know whether the application ends it's connections gracefully or nongracefully. Kurt Wiegand Cable & Wireless Communications 703 292-2115
RE: MTS v$session
okay that sounds a lot like the connection got broken (PC turned off, sqlnet expire time, which I see you've set, etc) badly being a "newbie" is the perfect time to ask.

Re: MTS v$session
did you look at the status column in v$session for the ones that don't match? IIRC, there can be a status of "SNIPED" where the session is not actually connected but has not been cleaned up. curiosity -- why is a user looking at v$session? --- "Wiegand, Kurt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've got an 8.1.7.4.0 instance running under Solaris 2.8. > > I've never worked with MTS before, but got a call from a user telling > me that there > were about 700 rows in v$session but they only had about 130 sessions > open. > The user believes that when the session is ended, v$session doesn't > (or doesn't always) > get cleaned up.
