141 DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER

The DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER package maintains plans, consumer groups, and plan directives. It also provides semantics so that you may group together changes to the plan schema.

This chapter contains the following topics:

141.1 DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER Deprecated Subprograms

The SET_INITIAL_CONSUMER_GROUP Procedure has been deprecated with Oracle Database 11g.

SET_INITIAL_CONSUMER_GROUP Procedure

Note:

Oracle recommends that you do not use deprecated procedures in new applications. Support for deprecated features is for backward compatibility only.

141.2 DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER Security Model

The invoker must have the ADMINISTER_RESOURCE_MANAGER system privilege to execute these procedures.

The procedures to grant and revoke this privilege are in the package DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER_PRIVS.

141.3 DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER Constants

The DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER package defines several constants for specifying parameter values.

141.4.1 BEGIN_SQL_BLOCK Procedure

This procedure, to be used with parallel statement queuing, indicates the start of a block of SQL statements that should be treated as a group by resource manager.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.BEGIN_SQL_BLOCK;

Usage Notes

For more information, see "Parallel Statement Queuing" and "Managing Parallel Statement Queuing with Resource Manager" in Oracle Database VLDB and Partitioning Guide.

141.4.2 CALIBRATE_IO Procedure

This procedure calibrates the I/O capabilities of storage. Calibration status is available from the V$IO_CALIBRATION_STATUS view and results for a successful calibration run are located in DBA_RSRC_IO_CALIBRATE table.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CALIBRATE_IO (
   num_physical_disks      IN  PLS_INTEGER DEFAULT 1,
   max_latency             IN  PLS_INTEGER DEFAULT 20,
   max_iops                OUT PLS_INTEGER,
   max_mbps                OUT PLS_INTEGER,
   actual_latency          OUT PLS_INTEGER);

Parameters

Table 141-3 CALIBRATE_IO Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`num_physical_disks`	Approximate number of physical disks in the database storage. This parameter is used to determine the initial I/O load for the calibration run.
`max_latency`	Maximum tolerable latency in milliseconds for database-block-sized IO requests
`max_iops`	Maximum number of I/O requests per second that can be sustained. The I/O requests are randomly-distributed, database-block-sized reads.
`max_mbps`	Maximum throughput of I/O that can be sustained, expressed in megabytes per second. The I/O requests are randomly-distributed, 1 megabyte reads.
`actual_latency`	Average latency of database-block-sized I/O requests at `max_iops` rate, expressed in milliseconds

Usage Notes

Only users with the SYSDBA privilege can run this procedure. Qualified users must also turn on timed_statistics, and ensure asynch_io is enabled for datafiles. This can be achieved by setting filesystemio_options to either ASYNCH or SETALL. One can also query the asynch_io status by means of the following SQL statement:
```
col name format a50
SELECT name, asynch_io FROM v$datafile f,v$iostat_file i
  WHERE f.file#        = i.file_no
  AND   filetype_name  = 'Data File'
 /
```
Only one calibration can be run at a time. If another calibration is initiated at the same time, it will fail.
For an Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) database, the workload is simultaneously generated from all instances.
In a multitenant container database (CDB), calibration can only be run from the CDB root (CDB$ROOT).
Calibration is extremely disruptive to the database performance. It is strongly recommended to run calibration only when database users can tolerate severe deterioration to database performance.
For optimal calibration results, no other database workloads should be running.

141.4.3 CLEAR_PENDING_AREA Procedure

This procedure clears pending changes for the resource manager.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CLEAR_PENDING_AREA;

141.4.4 CREATE_CATEGORY Procedure

This procedure creates a new consumer group category. The primary purpose of this attribute is to support Exadata I/O Resource Manager category plans.

The view DBA_RSRC_CATEGORIES defines the currently defined categories. The ADMINISTRATIVE, INTERACTIVE, BATCH, MAINTENANCE, and OTHER categories are available.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_CATEGORY (
   category    IN    VARCHAR2,
   comment     IN    VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);

Parameters

Table 141-4 CREATE_CATEGORY Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`category`	Name of consumer group category
`comment`	User comment

141.4.5 CREATE_CDB_PLAN Procedure

Creates entries which define consolidation resource plans.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_CDB_PLAN (
   plan                    IN    VARCHAR2(32), 
   comment                 IN    VARCHAR2(2000) DEFAULT NULL);

Parameters

Table 141-5 CREATE_CDB_PLAN Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`plan`	Name of the consolidation plan
`comment`	User comment

Usage Notes

This procedure can be run only from the CDB root (CDB$ROOT).

141.4.6 CREATE_CDB_PLAN_DIRECTIVE Procedure

This procedure creates the plan directives of the consolidation resource plan. Plan directives specify the resource allocation policy for pluggable databases (PDBs).

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_CDB_PLAN_DIRECTIVE (
   plan                    IN    VARCHAR2, 
   pluggable_database      IN    VARCHAR2, 
   comment                 IN    VARCHAR2 (2000) DEFAULT '', 
   shares                  IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT NULL, 
   utilization_limit       IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT NULL, 
   parallel_server_limit   IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT NULL,
   memory_limit            IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT 100, 
   memory_min              IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT 0);

Parameters

Table 141-6 CREATE_CDB_PLAN_DIRECTIVE Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`plan`	Name of the consolidation plan
`pluggable_database`	Name of the PDB
`comment`	User comment
`shares`	Specifies the share of resource allocation for the PDB. CPU Resource Manager and Exadata I/O Resource Manager are enabled by specifying shares for each PDB. The `shares` parameter is also used for Parallel Statement Queuing. If no share is specified, the default is obtained from the default directive, specified through UPDATE_CDB_DEFAULT_DIRECTIVE Procedure.
`utilization_limit`	Specifies the maximum percentage of the CDB's CPU and Exadata I/O resources that the PDB can utilize. CPU Resource Manager and Exadata I/O Resource Manager can also be limited by setting the `CPU_COUNT` parameter for the PDB.
`parallel_server_limit`	Parallel servers that the PDB can use after which parallel statements are queued. Alternatively, you can set the `parallel_servers_target` at the PDB level. A PDB can set a lower limit for parallel execution servers than the limit specified in the CDB resource plan. When the `PARALLEL_SERVERS_TARGET` initialization parameter is set in a PDB, and parallel execution server limit is specified for a PDB in the CDB resource plan, then the lower limit is used. For example, assume that the `parallel_servers_target` initialization parameter is set to `100` in the CDB root and `parallel_server_limit` is set to 70 for `hrpdb` in the CDB resource plan. Also, assume that `hrpdb` has its `parallel_servers_target` initialization parameter set to 50. In this case, the limit for parallel execution servers for hrpdb is 50, because 50 is lower than the CDB resource plan limit of 70 for `hrpdb`. Note: Oracle recommends, that you use `parallel_servers_target` parameter instead of `parallel_servers_limit` in a CDB resource plan.
`memory_limit`	This parameter is only applicable to Oracle Exadata storage for configuring the Exadata Smart Flash Cache and Exadata PMEM Cache.
`memory_min`	This parameter is only applicable to Oracle Exadata storage for configuring the Exadata Smart Flash Cache and Exadata PMEM Cache.

Usage Notes

The default value for shares, utilization_limit, and parallel_server_limit is NULL. When a user specifies NULL, or does not specify a value, this indicates that the default value should be used.
This procedure can be run only from the CDB root (CDB$ROOT).

141.4.7 CREATE_CDB_PROFILE_DIRECTIVE Procedure

This procedure creates the performance profile directives of the consolidation resource plan. The directives specify the resource allocation policy for pluggable databases (PDBs) that use the performance profile.

For a PDB to use the new performance profile, the PDB must have the DB_PERFORMANCE_PROFILE initialization parameter set to the profile name.

This procedure provides an easy way to specify the directive for a large number of PDBs with the same resource requirements. Each PDB with a DB_PERFORMANCE_PROFILE initialization parameter set to the performance profile name inherits the settings specified by this directive, including the shares, utilization limit, and so on.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_CDB_PROFILE_DIRECTIVE (
   plan                    IN    VARCHAR2, 
   profile                 IN    VARCHAR2,
   comment                 IN    VARCHAR2 (2000) DEFAULT '', 
   shares                  IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT NULL, 
   utilization_limit       IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT NULL, 
   parallel_server_limit   IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT NULL,
   memory_limit            IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT 100, 
   memory_min              IN    NUMBER          DEFAULT 0);

Parameters

Table 141-7 CREATE_CDB_PROFILE_DIRECTIVE Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`plan`	Name of the consolidation plan
`profile`	Name of the performance profile
`comment`	User comment
`shares`	Specifies the share of resource allocation for PDBs that use the performance profile. CPU Resource Manager and Exadata I/O Resource Manager are enabled by specifying shares for each PDB. The `shares` parameter is also used for Parallel Statement Queuing. If no share is specified, the default is obtained from the default directive, specified through UPDATE_CDB_DEFAULT_DIRECTIVE Procedure.
`utilization_limit`	Specifies the maximum percentage of CPU Resource Manager and Exadata I/O Resource Manager that PDBs that use the performance profile can utilize.
`parallel_server_limit`	Specifies the maximum percentage of `parallel_servers_target` parallel servers that PDBs that use the performance profile can use.
`memory_limit`	This parameter is only applicable to Oracle Exadata storage for configuring the Exadata Smart Flash Cache and Exadata PMEM Cache.
`memory_min`	This parameter is only applicable to Oracle Exadata storage for configuring the Exadata Smart Flash Cache and Exadata PMEM Cache.

141.4.8 CREATE_CONSUMER_GROUP Procedure

This procedure creates entries which define resource consumer groups.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_CONSUMER_GROUP (
   consumer_group  IN VARCHAR2,
   comment         IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL, 
   cpu_mth         IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL,
   mgmt_mth        IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'ROUND-ROBIN',
   category        IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'OTHER');

Parameters

Table 141-8 CREATE_CONSUMER_GROUP Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`consumer_group`	Name of the consumer group
`comment`	User comment
`cpu_mth`	Name of CPU resource allocation method (deprecated)
`mgmt_mth`	Name of CPU resource allocation method
`category`	Describes the category of the consumer group. The primary purpose of this attribute is to support Exadata I/O Resource Manager category plans. The view `DBA_RSRC_CATEGORIES` defines the currently defined categories. Categories can be modified, using the CREATE_CATEGORY Procedure, UPDATE_CATEGORY Procedure, and DELETE_CATEGORY Procedure.

141.4.9 CREATE_PENDING_AREA Procedure

This procedure makes changes to resource manager objects.

All changes to the plan schema must be done within a pending area. The pending area can be thought of as a "scratch" area for plan schema changes. The administrator creates this pending area, makes changes as necessary, possibly validates these changes, and only when the submit is completed do these changes become active.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_PENDING_AREA;

Usage Notes

You may, at any time while the pending area is active, view the current plan schema with your changes by selecting from the appropriate user views.

At any time, you may clear the pending area if you want to stop the current changes. You may also call the VALIDATE procedure to confirm whether the changes you have made are valid. You do not have to perform your changes in a given order to maintain a consistent group of entries. These checks are also implicitly done when the pending area is submitted.

Note:

Oracle allows "orphan" consumer groups (in other words, consumer groups that have no plan directives that refer to them). This is in anticipation that an administrator may want to create a consumer group that is not currently being used, but will be used in the future.

For resource plans, the following rules must be adhered to, and they are checked whenever the validate or submit procedures are executed:

No plan schema may contain any loops.
All plans and consumer groups referred to by plan directives must exist.
All plans must have plan directives that refer to either plans or consumer groups.
All percentages in any given level must not add up to greater than 100 for the emphasis resource allocation method.
No plan may be deleted that is currently being used as a top plan by an active instance.
The plan directive parameter, parallel_degree_limit_p1, may only appear in plan directives that refer to consumer groups (that is, not at subplans).
There cannot be more than 28 plan directives coming from any given plan (that is, no plan can have more than 28 children).
There cannot be more than 28 consumer groups in any active plan schema.
Plans and consumer groups use the same namespace; therefore, no plan can have the same name as any consumer group.
There must be a plan directive for OTHER_GROUPS somewhere in any active plan schema.This ensures that a session not covered by the currently active plan is allocated resources as specified by the OTHER_GROUPS directive.

Note:

These rules are not applicable for CDB resource plans.

If any of the preceding rules are broken when checked by the VALIDATE or SUBMIT procedures, then an informative error message is returned. You may then make changes to fix one or more problems and reissue the validate or submit procedures.

141.4.10 CREATE_PLAN Procedure

This procedure creates entries which define resource plans.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CREATE_PLAN (
   plan                       IN   VARCHAR2, 
   comment                    IN   VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL, 
   cpu_mth                    IN   VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL, -- deprecated
   active_sess_pool_mth       IN   VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'ACTIVE_SESS_POOL_ABSOLUTE', 
   parallel_degree_limit_mth  IN   VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 
                                      'PARALLEL_DEGREE_LIMIT_ABSOLUTE',
   queueing_mth               IN   VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'FIFO_TIMEOUT',
   mgmt_mth                   IN   VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'EMPHASIS',
   sub_plan                   IN   BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
   max_iops                   IN   NUMBER DEFAULT NULL,
   max_mbps                   IN   NUMBER DEFAULT NULL);

Parameters

Table 141-9 CREATE_PLAN Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`plan`	Name of the resource plan
`comment`	User comment
`cpu_mth`	Allocation method for CPU resources (deprecated)
`active_sess_pool_mth`	Active session pool resource allocation method. Limits the number of active sessions. All other sessions are inactive and wait in a queue to be activated. `ACTIVE_SESS_POOL_ABSOLUTE` is the default and only method available.
`parallel_degree_limit_mth`	Resource allocation method for specifying a limit on the degree of parallelism of any operation. `PARALLEL_DEGREE_LIMIT_ABSOLUTE` is the default and only method available.
`queueing_mth`	Queuing resource allocation method. Controls order in which queued inactive sessions will execute. `FIFO_TIMEOUT` is the default and only method available
`mgmt_mth`	Resource allocation method for specifying how much resources (for example, CPU or I/O) each consumer group or sub-plan gets `EMPHASIS` - for multilevel plans that use percentages to specify how I/O resources are distributed among consumer groups `RATIO` - for single-level plans that use ratios to specify how I/O resources are distributed
`sub_plan`	If `TRUE`, indicates that this plan is only intended for use as a sub-plan. Sub-plans are not required to have an `OTHER_GROUPS` directive. Default is `FALSE`.
`max_iops`	Nonoperative
`max_mbps`	Nonoperative

Usage Notes

If you want to use any default resource allocation method, then you do not need to specify it when creating or updating a plan.

`switch_time`	Specifies the time on CPU (not elapsed time) that a session can execute before an action is taken. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited. As with other switch directives, if `switch_for_call` is `TRUE`, the number of CPUs is accumulated from the start of a call. Otherwise, the number of CPUs is accumulated for the length of the session.
`switch_estimate`	If `TRUE`, tells Oracle to use its execution time estimate to automatically switch the consumer group of an operation before beginning its execution. This is used in conjunction with the `switch_time` directive. Default value is `FALSE`.
`max_est_exec_time`	Specifies the maximum execution time (in CPU seconds) allowed for a session. If the optimizer estimates that an operation will take longer than `MAX_EST_EXEC_TIME`, the operation is not started and ORA-07455 is issued. If the optimizer does not provide an estimate, this directive has no effect. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`undo_pool`	Limits the size in kilobytes of the undo records corresponding to uncommitted transactions by this consumer group
`max_idle_time`	Indicates the maximum session idle time. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`max_idle_blocker_time`	Maximum amount of time in seconds that a session can be idle while blocking another session's acquisition of a resource
`switch_time_in_call`	Deprecated. If this parameter is specified, `switch_time` is set to `switch_time_in_call` (in seconds) and `switch_for_call` is effectively set to `TRUE`. It is better to use `switch_time` and `switch_for_call`.
`mgmt_p1`	Resource allocation value for level 1 (replaces `cpu_p1`): `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the first level `RATIO` - specifies the weight of resource usage
`mgmt_p2`	Resource allocation value for level 2 (replaces `cpu_p2`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the second level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`mgmt_p3`	Resource allocation value for level 3 (replaces `cpu_p3`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the third level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`mgmt_p4`	Resource allocation value for level 4 (replaces `cpu_p4`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the fourth level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`mgmt_p5`	Resource allocation value for level 5 (replaces `cpu_p5`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the fifth level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`mgmt_p6`	Resource allocation value for level 6 (replaces `cpu_p6`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the sixth level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`mgmt_p7`	Resource allocation value for level 7 (replaces `cpu_p7`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the seventh level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`mgmt_p8`	Resource allocation value for level 8 (replaces `cpu_p8`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the eighth level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`switch_io_megabytes`	Specifies the amount of I/O (in MB) that a session can issue before an action is taken. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited. As with other switch directives, if `switch_for_call` is `TRUE`, the number of CPUs is accumulated from the start of a call. Otherwise, the number of CPUs is accumulated for the length of the session.
`switch_io_reqs`	Specifies the number of I/O requests that a session can issue before an action is taken. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited. As with other switch directives, if `switch_for_call` is `TRUE`, the number of CPUs is accumulated from the start of a call. Otherwise, the number of CPUs is accumulated for the length of the session.
`switch_for_call`	Specifies that if an action is taken because of the `switch_time`, `switch_io_megabytes`, `switch_io_reqs`, `switch_io_logical` or `switch_elapsed_time` parameters, the consumer group is restored to its original consumer group at the end of the top call. Default is `NULL`, which means that the original consumer group is not restored at the end of the top call.
`max_utilization_limit`	-- deprecated: use `utilization_limit` instead
`parallel_target_percentage`	-- deprecated: use `parallel_sever_limit` instead
`parallel_queue_timeout`	Specifies the time (in seconds) that a parallel statement may remain in its Consumer Group's parallel statement queue before it is removed and terminated with an error (ORA- 07454). Note: You can use the `pq_timeout_action` parameter to specify the action to be taken when a parallel statement is removed from the queue.
`parallel_sever_limit`	Specifies the maximum percentage of `parallel_servers_target` parallel servers that the Consumer Group can use, after which parallel statements are queued.
`utilization_limit`	Resource limit. Currently it includes CPU and I/O for Exadata. For CPU, this limits the CPU utilization for the consumer group. For Exadata I/O, this limits the disk utilization for the consumer group. This does not apply to parallel servers.
`switch_io_logical`	Number of logical IOs that will trigger the action specified by `switch_group`. As with other switch directives, if `switch_for_call` is `TRUE`, the number of logical IOs is accumulated from the start of a call. Otherwise, the number of logical IOs is accumulated for the length of the session.
`switch_elapsed_time`	Elapsed time that will trigger the action specified by `switch_group`. As with other switch directives, if `switch_for_call` is `TRUE`, the elapsed time is accumulated from the start of a call. Otherwise, the elapsed time is accumulated for the length of the session.
`shares`	Specifies the share of resource allocation for the consumer group. CPU Resource Manager and Exadata I/O Resource Manager are enabled by specifying shares for each consumer group. The `shares` parameter is also used for Parallel Statement Queuing. If CPU Resource Manager and Exadata I/O Resource Manager are enabled, then the default value is `1`.
`parallel_stmt_critical`	If set to `BYPASS_QUEUE`, parallel statements from the Consumer Group are not queued, regardless of the `PARALLEL_DEGREE_POLICY` parameter value. If set to `QUEUE`, all the parallel statements from the consumer group, irrespective of the `parallel_degree_policy` parameter value, are eligible for queuing. Default is `FALSE`, which means that parallel statements are eligible for queuing, based on the `parallel_degree_policy` parameter value.
`session_pga_limit`	Maximum amount of untunable PGA (in MB) that a session in this consumer group can allocate before being terminated. `NULL` (default) indicates no limit. SQL operations that allocate tunable PGA (operations that can opt to use temp space) are not controlled by this limit.
`pq_timeout_action`	Specifies the action to be taken when a parallel statement is removed from the queue due to `parallel_queue_timeout`. The values are: `CANCEL` — The parallel statement is terminated with error `ORA-7454` `RUN` — The SQL statement runs immediately, and might get downgraded if parallel servers are unavailable The default action of this parameter is `CANCEL`.

Usage Notes

All parameters default to NULL.
For max_idle_time and max_idle_blocker_time, PMON will check these limits once a minute. If it finds a session that has exceeded one of the limits, it will forcibly kill the session and clean up all its state.
The parameter switch_for_call is mostly useful for three-tier applications where the mid-tier server is implementing session pooling. By using switch_for_call, the resource usage of one client will not affect a future client that happens to be executed on the same session.
An error is thrown if PQ_TIMEOUT_ACTION is specified, but PARALLEL_QUEUE_TIMEOUT is not specified.
Specifies the action to be taken when a parallel statement is removed from the queue.

141.4.21 DEQUEUE_PARALLEL_STATEMENT Procedure

This procedure dequeues a parallel statement from the parallel statement queue.

If the PARALLEL_DEGREE_POLICY initialization parameter is set to AUTO or ADAPTIVE, then parallel statement queuing is enabled. If a parallel statement is in the parallel statement queue, then you can use this procedure to dequeue the parallel statement so that it runs immediately.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.DEQUEUE_PARALLEL_STATEMENT (
   session_id      IN  PLS_INTEGER,
   session_serial  IN  PLS_INTEGER,

   sql_id          IN  VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);

Parameters

Table 141-20 DEQUEUE_PARALLEL_STATEMENT Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`session_id`	The session id of the session running the parallel statement to be dequeued.
`session_serial`	The serial number of the session.
`inst_id`	Instance ID where the session is running. If `NULL`, then the current instance is used.
`sql_id`	The SQL ID of the session's statement to dequeue. If the session is running SQL with a different SQL ID, then the statement is not dequeued.

141.4.22 END_SQL_BLOCK Procedure

This procedure, to be used with parallel statement queuing, indicates the end of a block of SQL statements that should be treated as a group by resource manager.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.END_SQL_BLOCK;

Usage Notes

For more information, see "Parallel Statement Queuing" and "Managing Parallel Statement Queuing with Resource Manager" in Oracle Database VLDB and Partitioning Guide.

141.4.23 SET_CONSUMER_GROUP_MAPPING Procedure

This procedure adds, deletes, or modifies entries that map sessions to consumer groups, based on the session's login and runtime attributes.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SET_CONSUMER_GROUP_MAPPING(
   attribute        IN VARCHAR2, 
   value            IN VARCHAR2, 
   consumer_group   IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT NULL);

Parameters

Table 141-21 SET_CONSUMER_GROUP_MAPPING Procedure Parameters

Parameters	Description
`attribute`	Mapping attribute to add or modify. It can be one of the Constants listed.
`value`	Attribute value to match. This includes both absolute mapping and regular expressions.
`consumer_group`	Name of the mapped consumer group, or `NULL` to delete a mapping

Usage Notes

If no mapping exists for the given attribute and value, a mapping to the given consumer group will be created. If a mapping already exists for the given attribute and value, the mapped consumer group will be updated to the one given. If the consumer_group argument is NULL, then any mapping from the given attribute and value will be deleted.
The subprogram supports simple regex expressions for the value parameter. It implements the same semantics as the SQL 'LIKE' operator. Specifically, it uses '%' as amulticharacter wildcard and '_' as a single character wildcard. The '\' character can be used to escape the wildcards. Note that wildcards can only be used if the attribute is one of the following:
- CLIENT_OS_USER
- CLIENT_PROGRAM
- CLIENT_MACHINE
- MODULE_NAME
- MODULE_NAME_ACTION
- SERVICE_MODULE
- SERVICE_MODULE_ACTION
Consumer group mapping comparisons for DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.CLIENT_PROGRAM are performed by stripping the @ sign and following characters from V$SESSION.PROGRAM before comparing it to the CLIENT_PROGRAM value supplied.

141.4.24 SET_CONSUMER_GROUP_MAPPING_PRI Procedure

Multiple attributes of a session can be used to map the session to a consumer group. This procedure prioritizes the attribute mappings.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SET_CONSUMER_GROUP_MAPPING_PRI(
   explicit               IN NUMBER, 
   oracle_user            IN NUMBER, 
   service_name           IN NUMBER, 
   client_os_user         IN NUMBER, 
   client_program         IN NUMBER, 
   client_machine         IN NUMBER, 
   module_name            IN NUMBER, 
   module_name_action     IN NUMBER,
   service_module         IN NUMBER,
   service_module_action  IN NUMBER,
   client_id              IN NUMBER DEFAULT 11);

Parameters

Table 141-22 SET_CONSUMER_GROUP_MAPPING_PRI Procedure Parameters

Parameters	Description
`explicit`	Priority of the explicit mapping
`oracle_user`	Priority of the Oracle user name mapping
`service_name`	Priority of the client service name mapping
`client_os_user`	Priority of the client operating system user name mapping
`client_program`	Priority of the client program mapping
`client_machine`	Priority of the client machine mapping
`module_name`	Priority of the application module name mapping
`module_name_action`	Priority of the application module name and action mapping
`service_module`	Priority of the service name and application module name mapping
`module_name_action`	Priority of the service name, application module name, and application action mapping
`client_id`	Client identifier

Usage Notes

This procedure requires that you include the pseudo-attribute explicit as an argument. It must be set to 1. It indicates that explicit consumer group switches have the highest priority. You explicitly switch consumer groups with these package procedures:
- DBMS_SESSION.SWITCH_CURRENT_CONSUMER_GROUP
- DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_SESS
- DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_USER
Each priority value must be a unique integer from 1 to 11. Together, they establish an ordering where 1 is the highest priority and 11 is the lowest.

141.4.25 SET_INITIAL_CONSUMER_GROUP Procedure

This deprecated procedure sets the initial resource consumer group for a user.

The initial consumer group of a user is the consumer group to which any session created by that user initially belongs.

Note:

This procedure is deprecated in Release 11gR1. While the procedure remains available in the package, Initial Consumer Group is set by the session-to-consumer group mapping rules.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SET_INITIAL_CONSUMER_GROUP (
   user             IN   VARCHAR2, 
   consumer_group   IN   VARCHAR2);

Parameters

Table 141-23 SET_INITIAL_CONSUMER_GROUP Procedure Parameters

Parameters	Description
`user`	Name of the user
`consumer_group`	User's initial consumer group

Usage Notes

The ADMINISTER_RESOURCE_MANAGER or the ALTER USER system privilege are required to be able to execute this procedure. The user, or PUBLIC, must be directly granted switch privilege to a consumer group before it can be set to be the user's initial consumer group. Switch privilege for the initial consumer group cannot come from a role granted to that user.

Note:

These semantics are similar to those for ALTER USER DEFAULT ROLE.
If the initial consumer group for a user has never been set, then the user's initial consumer group is automatically the consumer group: DEFAULT_CONSUMER_GROUP.
DEFAULT_CONSUMER_GROUP has switch privileges granted to PUBLIC; therefore, all users are automatically granted switch privilege for this consumer group. Upon deletion of a consumer group, all users having the deleted group as their initial consumer group now have DEFAULT_CONSUMER_GROUP as their initial consumer group. All currently active sessions belonging to a deleted consumer group are switched to DEFAULT_CONSUMER_GROUP.

141.4.26 SUBMIT_PENDING_AREA Procedure

This procedure submits pending changes for the resource manager. It clears the pending area after validating and committing the changes (if valid).

Note:

A call to SUBMIT_PENDING_AREA may fail even if VALIDATE_PENDING_AREA succeeds. This may happen if a plan being deleted is loaded by an instance after a call to VALIDATE_PENDING_AREA, but before a call to SUBMIT_PENDING_AREA.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SUBMIT_PENDING_AREA;

141.4.27 SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_SESS Procedure

This procedure changes the resource consumer group of a specific session. It also changes the consumer group of any parallel execution servers that are related to the top user session. This procedure is RAC instance specific. You need to connect to the PDB in same RAC instance where the session to be switched is running, and then run this procedure.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_SESS (
   session_id      IN NUMBER, 
   session_serial  IN NUMBER, 
   consumer_group  IN VARCHAR2);

Parameters

Table 141-24 SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_SESS Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`session_id`	SID column from the view `V$SESSION`
`session_serial`	`SERIAL#` column from view `V$SESSION`.
`consumer_group`	Name of the consumer group to which to switch

141.4.28 SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_USER Procedure

This procedure changes the resource consumer group for all sessions with a given user ID. It also changes the consumer group of any parallel execution servers that are related to the top user session.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_USER (
   user            IN VARCHAR2, 
   consumer_group  IN VARCHAR2);

Parameters

Table 141-25 SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_USER Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`user`	Name of the user
`consumer_group`	Name of the consumer group to which to switch

Usage Notes

The SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_SESS Procedure and the SWITCH_CONSUMER_GROUP_FOR_USER procedures let you raise or lower the allocation of CPU resources of certain sessions or users. This provides a functionality similar to the nice command on UNIX.
These procedures cause the session to be moved into the newly specified consumer group immediately.

141.4.29 SWITCH_PLAN Procedure

This procedure sets the current resource manager plan.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.SWITCH_PLAN(
   plan_name                     IN   VARCHAR2,
   sid                           IN   VARCHAR2 DEFAULT '*',
   allow_scheduler_plan_switches IN   BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE);

Parameters

Table 141-26 SWITCH_PLAN Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`plan_name`	Name of the plan to which to switch. Passing in an empty string ('') for the `plan_name`, disables the resource manager
`sid`	The `sid` parameter is relevant only in an Oracle Real Application Clusters environment. This parameter lets you change the plan for a particular instance. Specify the `sid` of the instance where you want to change the plan. Or specify '*' if you want Oracle to change the plan for all instances.
`allow_scheduler_plan_switches`	`FALSE` - disables automated plan switches by the job scheduler at window boundaries. To reenable automated plan switches, switch_plan must be called again by the administrator with `allow_scheduler_plan_switches` set to `TRUE`. By default automated plan switches by the job scheduler are enabled.

141.4.30 UPDATE_CATEGORY Procedure

This procedure updates an existing resource consumer group category.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.UPDATE_CATEGORY (
   category        IN    VARCHAR2,
   new_comment     IN    VARCHAR2  DEFAULT NULL);

Parameters

Table 141-27 UPDATE_CATEGORY Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`category`	Name of consumer group category
`new_comment`	User comment

Usage Notes

To clear (reset to the directive's default value), use the value -1.

141.4.31 UPDATE_CDB_AUTOTASK_DIRECTIVE Procedure

This procedure updates the plan directives with regard to automated maintenance tasks in the CDB root (CDB$ROOT).

By default, all maintenance tasks occur directly in the PDBs themselves.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.UPDATE_CDB_AUTOTASK_DIRECTIVE (
   plan                        IN    VARCHAR2, 
   new_comment                 IN    VARCHAR2       DEFAULT NULL, 
   new_shares                  IN    NUMBER         DEFAULT NULL, 
   new_utilization_limit       IN    NUMBER         DEFAULT NULL, 
   new_parallel_server_limit   IN    NUMBER         DEFAULT NULL,
   new_memory_limit            IN    NUMBER         DEFAULT NULL,   
   new_memory_min              IN    NUMBER         DEFAULT NULL);

Parameters

Table 141-28 UPDATE_CDB_AUTOTASK_DIRECTIVE Procedure Parameters

Parameter	Description
`plan`	Name of the consolidation plan
`new_comment`	New user comment
`new_shares`	Specifies the new share of resource allocation for CDB root’s automated maintenance tasks
`new_utilization_limit`	Specifies the new maximum percentage of CPU that automated maintenance tasks in the CDB root can utilize
`new_parallel_server_limit`	Specifies the new maximum percentage of `parallel_servers_target` parallel servers that automated maintenance tasks in the CDB root are allowed to use
`new_memory_limit`	This parameter is only applicable to Oracle Exadata storage for configuring the Database Smart Flash Cache and PMEM Cache.
`new_memory_min`	This parameter is only applicable to Oracle Exadata storage for configuring the Database Smart Flash Cache and PMEM Cache.

Usage Notes

By default for automated maintenance tasks, the values are
- shares: -1
- utilization_limit: 90
- parallel_server_limit: 100
The shares = -1 means that the automated maintenance tasks get an allocation of 20% of the system. If the user specifies the shares, it behaves the same properties as the other CDB plan directive functions. If the user does not change the shares or later changes it back to -1, autotask will get 20% of the system.
This procedure can be run only from the CDB root.
To clear (reset to the directive's default value), use the value -1.

141.4.32 UPDATE_CDB_DEFAULT_DIRECTIVE Procedure

This procedure updates the plan directives of the consolidation resource plan.

Syntax

DBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER.UPDATE_CDB_DEFAULT_DIRECTIVE (
   plan                        IN    VARCHAR2    DEFAULT NULL, 
   new_comment                 IN    VARCHAR2    DEFAULT NULL, 
   new_shares                  IN    NUMBER      DEFAULT NULL,

`new_cpu_p4`	Deprecated- use `new_mgmt_p4` instead
`new_cpu_p5`	Deprecated - use `new_mgmt_p5` instead
`new_cpu_p6`	Deprecated- use `new_mgmt_p6` instead
`new_cpu_p7`	Deprecated- use `new_mgmt_p7` instead
`new_cpu_p8`	Deprecated- use `new_mgmt_p8` instead
`new_active_sess_pool_p1`	Specifies maximum number of concurrently active sessions for a consumer group. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`new_queueing_p1`	Specified time (in seconds) after which a job in the inactive session queue (waiting for execution) will time out. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`new_parallel_degree_limit_p1`	Specifies a limit on the degree of parallelism for any operation. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`new_switch_group`	Specifies consumer group to which this session is switched if other switch criteria are met. Default is `NULL`. If the group name is '`CANCEL_SQL`', the current call will be canceled when other switch criteria are met. If the group name is '`KILL_SESSION`', the session will be killed when other switch criteria are met.
`new_switch_time`	Specifies time (in CPU seconds) that a session can execute before an action is taken. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`new_switch_estimate`	If `TRUE`, tells Oracle to use its execution time estimate to automatically switch the consumer group of an operation before beginning its execution. Default is `FALSE`.
`new_max_est_exec_time`	Specifies the maximum execution time (in CPU seconds) allowed for a session. If the optimizer estimates that an operation will take longer than `MAX_EST_EXEC_TIME`, the operation is not started and ORA-07455 is issued. If the optimizer does not provide an estimate, this directive has no effect. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`new_undo_pool`	Limits the size in kilobytes of the undo records corresponding to uncommitted transactions by this consumer group
`new_max_idle_time`	Indicates the maximum session idle time. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`new_max_idle_blocker_time`	Maximum amount of time in seconds that a session can be idle while blocking another session's acquisition of a resource
`new_switch_time_in_call`	Deprecated. If this parameter is specified, `new_switch_time` will be effectively set to `new_switch_time_in_call` and `new_switch_for_call` will be effectively set to `TRUE`.
`new_mgmt_p1`	Resource allocation value for level 1 (replaces `new_cpu_p1`): `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the first level `RATIO` - specifies the weight of resource usage
`new_mgmt_p2`	Resource allocation value for level 2 (replaces `new_cpu_p2`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the second level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`new_mgmt_p3`	Resource allocation value for level 3 (replaces `new_cpu_p3`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the third level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`new_mgmt_p4`	Resource allocation value for level 4 (replaces `new_cpu_p4`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the fourth level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`new_mgmt_p5`	Resource allocation value for level 5 (replaces `new_cpu_p5`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the fifth level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`new_mgmt_p6`	Resource allocation value for level 6 (replaces `new_cpu_p6`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the sixth level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`new_mgmt_p7`	Resource allocation value for level 7 (replaces `new_cpu_p7`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the seventh level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`new_mgmt_p8`	Resource allocation value for level 8 (replaces `new_cpu_p8`) `EMPHASIS` - specifies the resource percentage at the eighth level `RATIO` - non-applicable
`new_switch_io_megabytes`	Specifies the amount of I/O (in MB) that a session can issue before an action is taken. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`new_switch_io_reqs`	Specifies the number of I/O requests that a session can issue before an action is taken. Default is `NULL`, which means unlimited.
`new_switch_for_call`	Specifies that if an action is taken because of the `new_switch_time`, `new_switch_io_megabytes`, or `new_switch_io_reqs` parameters, the consumer group is restored to its original consumer group at the end of the top call. Default is `FALSE`, which means that the original consumer group is not restored at the end of the top call.
`new_max_utilization_limit`	Deprecated - use `new_utilization_limit` instead
`new_parallel_target_percentage`	Deprecated - use `new_parallel_server_limit` instead
`new_parallel_server_limit`	Parallel server limit. Setting this overwrites the limit for parallel server set by `utilization_limit`.
`new_utilization_limit`	Resource limit. For CPU, this limits the CPU utilization for the consumer group. For parallel servers, this limits the parallel servers used as a percentage of `parallel_servers_target`.
`new_switch_elapsed_time`	Elapsed time that will trigger the action specified by `switch_group`. As with other switch directives, if `new_switch_for_call` is `TRUE`, the elapsed time is accumulated from the start of a call. Otherwise, the elapsed time is accumulated for the length of the session.
`new_shares`	Specifies the share of resource allocation for the pluggable database. CPU Resource Manager and Exadata I/O Resource Manager are enabled by specifying shares for each PDB. The `shares` parameter is also used for Parallel Statement Queuing. If CPU Resource Manager and Exadata I/O Resource Manager are enabled, then the default value is `1`.
`new_parallel_stmt_critical`	If set to `BYPASS_QUEUE`, parallel statements from this consumer group are not queued. If set to `QUEUE`, all the parallel statements, irrespective of the `parallel_degree_policy` parameter value, from the consumer group get queued. Default is `FALSE`, which means that certain parallel statements are eligible for queuing depending upon the `parallel_degree_policy` parameter value.
`new_session_pga_limit`	Maximum amount of PGA in MB that sessions in this consumer group can allocate before being terminated. `NULL` (default) indicates no change.
`new_parallel_queue_timeout`	Specifies the time (in seconds) that a parallel statement may remain in its Consumer Group's parallel statement queue before it is removed. The default action of this parameter is `ERROR`. This action can be altered using the `new_pq_timeout_action` parameter.
`new_pq_timeout_action`	Specifies the action to be taken when a parallel statement is removed from the queue due to `new_parallel_queue_timeout`. The values are: `CANCEL` — The SQL statement is terminated with error `ORA-7454` `RUN` — The SQL statement runs immediately, and might get downgraded if parallel servers are unavailable

Usage Notes

If the parameters for UPDATE_PLAN_DIRECTIVE are left unspecified, then they remain unchanged in the data dictionary.
For new_max_idle_time and new_max_idle_blocker_time, PMON will check these limits once a minute. If it finds a session that has exceeded one of the limits, it will forcibly kill the session and clean up all its state.
The parameter new_switch_time_in_call is mostly useful for three-tier applications where the mid-tier server is implementing session pooling. By turning on new_switch_time_in_call, the resource usage of one client will not affect the consumer group of a future client that happens to be executed on the same session.
To clear (reset to the directive's default value), use the value -1.
