Yesterday i completed a 11g Release 2 real application clusters installation on 64 bit Oracle Enterprise Linux 4. The installation process is very similar to the 10g. Limiting IO and CPU resources using 1. Oracle Resource Manager. Recently I was working on using Oracle DBMSRESOURCEMANAGER to limit resources usage by read only queries. This was required to prevent long running ad hoc and poorly written queries. Instead of writing custom sql script to kill long running session, we decided to utilize Oracle Database Resource Manager. We decided using elapsedtime as criteria for cancelling sql. But during tests we found out that any IO bound query didnt kill after specified switchtime.

On checking My Oracle Support, we came across Note ID 1. As per note, starting 1. Unpublished Bug 8. Due to this fix, switchtime applies for the execution time in CPU seconds and not for the total elapsed time which includes wait times also of the query. What this means is that any query which is waiting on wait class other then CPU e. IO will not be killed based on switch time. Switchtime applies only to time spent on CPU. Waits are not included. Checking Oracle 1. Documentation, we found that Oracle had introduced new parameter in createplandirective named switchiomegabytes which can be used to cancel sql after specified IO limit is reached. We used following code to create resource manager plan with following directivesaLimit Cpu time to 3. Limit Parallelism to 4cLimit IO to 2. Mb 2. 0Gbegin. CONSUMERGROUP CPUIOLIMITGRP.

From Vpxsession we can verify that we requested 8 degree but we are getting only 4 due to resource manager plan directive.

Previous query was only read operation and we were wondering if this IO limit applied to both readwrite operation. To confirm this we ran query with 4 table join doing merge cartersian join This was one of query which used 1.

Not sure if this is expected behavior as note 1. Note that we used switchgroup as CANCELSQL which cancels the running sql after limit is reached. In case you plan to kill the session, you need to use KILLSESSION. You would notice that we used switchestimate to false. This parameter tells oracle to estimate the execution time before the operation starts. If you use switchestimate to true in above code, you will notice that it will kill the session immediately along with error message indicating which IO limit was reached. Install Mac Theme For Windows 7. If you set switchestimate to true and set maxestexectime which specifies the maximum execution time in CPU seconds allowed for a session. If the optimizer estimates that an operation will take longer than MAXESTEXECTIME, the operation is not started and ORA 0. You can notice that this is far better approach of enforcing limits rather then writing your own scripttriggers. Some of advantages in this case wereaBoth the cases we got pretty informative error indicating that we are excluding specified limits. Gave us control of limiting parallelismcAllows us to specify IO based limits. We didnt use cpu allocation in this case but you can also limit cpu available for users using mgmtp.
