Session Stat Summary Interval (PI_PIS2)

Organization of this page

Function

The Session Stat Summary Interval (PI_PIS2) record stores performance data, taken at specific intervals, about each session and performance indicator of an instance. PFM - Agent for Oracle creates one record for each session in an instance. This is a multi-instance record.

If you cannot view the performance data in this record, create Oracle's static data dictionary view DBA_WAITERS. To create this view, you must execute the CATBLOCK.SQL script that is provided by Oracle.

This record is useful when you want to monitor session information in the monitored Oracle Database that has a long connection period, such as a connection pool. However, if you repeatedly connect and disconnect during system operation, you can monitor session information using the Session Statistics Summary (PD_PDS2) record. If sessions are frequently connected and disconnected, valid data cannot be obtained under the following circumstance: when attempting to obtain the difference for values of delta items between a current connection and a previous connection, information derived from another session might be substituted for the previous connection values because the key field is PI_PIS2_SID.
