ADDM Reports
The Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor - ADDM - is an advisor which detects problem area' s in the database and which gives recommendations. ADDM uses the statistical data from the AWR - Automatic Workload Repository - stored in the sysaux tablespace. By default the statistical data is gathered / written to disk by snapshots every hour and kept in the sysaux tablespace for 7 days, assuming you haven' t set the instance parameter statistics_level to basic. ( default = typical ). Please note you can also use
1. AWR Reports which are an equivalent of the statspack reports from previous releases. ( AWR reports give even more detailled information ).
2. ASH Reports. The active session history is usefull for analysis of recent database performance events.
Note that you need to purchase an additional licence - the Database Diagnostics Pack - in order to use this AWR repository.
Here is an example of how one can take a ADDM report.
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin
SQL> start addmrpt.sql;
