Running Extended SQL Traces On OWB Process Flows

March 8th, 2005 by Mark Rittman

If you’ve been following my work on putting an
OWB Performance Tuning
Framework
together, and you read yesterday’s article on
running an event 10046
extended trace on a mapping
, you might be interested in some more work I’ve
now done on running an extended SQL trace on an entire OWB process flow.

The approach I ended up using was to use DBMS_IDENTIFIER.SET_IDENTIFIER to
set a common client ID for each mapping, then use
DBMS_MONITOR.CLIENT_ID_TRACE_ENABLE to enable trace for this particular client
ID, then use trcsess to "weave" the separate trace files together. I’ve written
up the approach and findings in

"Using DBMS_MONITOR To Trace OWB Process Flows"
and if anyone’s got any
feedback or additional ideas, please let me know.
