MMAN – memory broker statistics
November 19, 2008 Leave a Comment
Some background on memory broker:
The Automatic Shared Memory Management feature uses background process named Memory Manager (MMAN).MMAN serves as the SGA Memory Broker and coordinates the sizing of the memory components. The SGA Memory Broker keeps track of the sizes of the components and pending resize operations.There is not so many document on this process but here is some help:
Let’s see what is MMAN responsible for :
SQL> select substr(DEST,1,10) DEST, DESCRIPTION from x$messages where DEST=’MMAN’;
DEST DESCRIPTION
—————————— ——————————————————–
MMAN lock memory at startup
MMAN lock memory timeout action
MMAN Memory Management
MMAN Complete deferred initialization of components
MMAN Handle sga_target resize
MMAN Handle mem_target resize
MMAN Handle sga_target deferred request delete
MMAN Reset advisory pool when advisory turned ON
The SGA Memory Broker keeps track of the sizes of the components and pending resize operations.
We can dump memory broker statistics into trace file using
oradebug dump DUMP_ADV_SNAPSHOTS command e.g.
SQL> oradebug setmypid
SQL> oradebug dump DUMP_ADV_SNAPSHOTS 0
Default value for memory broker statistis is 30 sec.It is controled by underscore parameter
_memory_broker_stat_interval 30 memory broker statistics gathering interval for auto sga
and can be changed with alter system command e.g.
alter system set “_memory_broker_stat_interval”=60 scope=both sid=’demo1′; will change gathering interval to one minute.
New snapshot will be generated after _memory_broker_stat_interval expires.
Trace file has various statistics for diffrent SGA components.Note snapshots numbers and timestamp.
Processing Oradebug command ‘dump DUMP_ADV_SNAPSHOTS 0′
