Dynamic Performance (V$) Views, 176 of 237
This view lists the resources or events for which active sessions are waiting.
The following are tuning considerations:
P1RAW
, P2RAW
, and P3RAW
display the same values as the P1
, P2
, and P3
columns, except that the numbers are displayed in hexadecimal.WAIT_TIME
column contains a value of -2 on platforms that do not support a fast timing mechanism. If you are running on one of these platforms and you want this column to reflect true wait times, you must set the TIMED_STATISTICS
parameter to TRUE
. Remember that doing this has a small negative effect on system performance.
In previous releases the WAIT_TIME
column contained an arbitrarily large value instead of a negative value to indicate the platform did not have a fast timing mechanism.
STATE
column interprets the value of WAIT_TIME
and describes the state of the current or most recent wait.
