MESSAGES

NUMBER

Number of messages processed

BYTES

NUMBER

Total number of bytes in all messages

BREAKS

BOUND_TIME

NUMBER

Time that a circuit and shared server have been bound (in centiseconds)

BOUND_REASON

VARCHAR2(32)

Provides a reason (a short explanation) for why a shared server and circuit could not be unbound.

This column is empty when a circuit is not bound to a server.

When the server starts serving a circuit, BOUND_REASON is empty and remains empty unless the server tries unsuccessfully to unbind the circuit (after it finishes serving the current request).

When this column is not empty, it will be cleared once the server and circuit are unbound (that is, once the resources preventing the session migration to another shared server are released).

CON_ID

NUMBER

The ID of the container to which the data pertains. 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
