Comments on: Oracle RAC and gv$ Views: A Second Look http://www.pythian.com/blogs/992/oracle-rac-and-gv-views-a-second-look News and views from Pythian DBAs Sat, 22 Nov 2008 11:32:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 By: GrĂ©gory http://www.pythian.com/blogs/992/oracle-rac-and-gv-views-a-second-look#comment-200695 GrĂ©gory Sat, 17 May 2008 03:10:03 +0000 http://www.pythian.com/blogs/992/oracle-rac-and-gv-views-a-second-look#comment-200695 Please don't make a 3rd post about GV$ views ! Run the query below on a non-RAC database : select VIEW_DEFINITION from V$FIXED_VIEW_DEFINITION where view_name='V$SESSION'; If you don't have any, you may want to look at that post http://www.pythian.com/blogs/968/installing-oracle-11g-on-ubuntu-804-lts-hardy-heron (I should work with 10g too) Regarding your other question you may want to look at V$GES_ENQUEUE. And with RAC you could be interested to look at US, TA enqueues and probably many more. The LOCK word means too many things (And not only with Oracle). You could use the V$ENQUEUE_LOCK fixed view instead. BTW, Why to you display a "KILL SESSION" command ? Please don’t make a 3rd post about GV$ views ! Run the query below on a non-RAC database :
