DBA_HIST_CLUSTER_INTERCON

DBA_HIST_CLUSTER_INTERCON displays information about the devices used by the instance to access the interconnect (that is, communicate with other instances).

Column Datatype NULL Description
SNAP_ID NUMBER NOT NULL Unique snapshot ID
DBID NUMBER NOT NULL Database ID for the snapshot
INSTANCE_NUMBER NUMBER NOT NULL Instance number for the snapshot
NAME VARCHAR2(256) NOT NULL Operating system name of the device
PNAMEFoot 1 VARCHAR2(256)  

Name of the physical interface of the interconnect

This value may differ from the NAME value if the IP address is bound to a device alias. For example, if NAME is eth0:1, then PNAME is eth0.

TRANSPORTFoot 1 VARCHAR2(256)   Network protocol used for inter-instance communication
IP_ADDRESS VARCHAR2(64) NOT NULL IP address of the device
IS_PUBLIC VARCHAR2(3)  

Indicates whether the device is a public interface (YES) or a private interface (NO)

Public interfaces can be listened to by outside applications, which may be a security problem. Oracle recommends using private interfaces for interconnect.

SOURCE VARCHAR2(31)   Describes the type of device
CON_DBID NUMBER   The database ID of the PDB for the sampled session
CON_ID NUMBER  

The ID of the container that CON_DBID identifies. Possible values include:

  • 0: This value is used for rows containing data that pertain to the entire CDB. This value is also used for rows in non-CDBs.

  • 1: This value is used for rows containing data that pertain to only the root

  • n: Where n is the applicable container ID for the rows containing data
