hi..
I run one sql

column parameter format a29
column value format a7
column usage format a7
select 'session_cached_cursors' parameter, lpad(value, 5) value,
decode(value, 0, ' n/a', to_char(100 * used / value, '9990') || '%') usage
from ( select max(s.value) used from V$STATNAME n, V$SESSTAT s
where n.name = 'session cursor cache count' and s.statistic# = n.statistic# ),
( select value from V$PARAMETER where name = 'session_cached_cursors' )
union all
select 'open_cursors', lpad(value, 5), to_char(100 * used / value, '9990') || '%'
from ( select max(sum(s.value)) used from V$STATNAME n, V$SESSTAT s
where n.name in ('opened cursors current', 'session cursor cache count') and s.statistic# = n.statistic# group by s.sid ),
( select value from V$PARAMETER where name = 'open_cursors' );

and the output is

PARAMETER VALUE USAGE
----------------------------- ------- -------
session_cached_cursors 50 1014%
open_cursors 1500 34%

my question is "usage value" for session_cached_cursors is normal?? or i need to be tuning for session_cached_cursors parameter??

It would be helpful if you followed Posting Guidelines - http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/88153/0/

>or i need to be tuning for session_cached_cursors parameter?
You do NOT tune parameters.
At what value does this parameter go from being OK to being "high"?
Is this same value true for every DB & every version release?

You tune SQL statements

From your own query you have a usage of 1014%, so it is very good, what is your concern?
Or maybe you don't understand YOUR query?

I've just run this query:
orcl> column parameter format a29
orcl> column value format a7
orcl> column usage format a7
orcl> select 'session_cached_cursors' parameter, lpad(value, 5) value,
  2  decode(value, 0, ' n/a', to_char(100 * used / value, '9990') || '%') usage
  3  from ( select max(s.value) used from V$STATNAME n, V$SESSTAT s
  4  where n.name = 'session cursor cache count' and s.statistic# = n.statistic# ),
  5  ( select value from V$PARAMETER where name = 'session_cached_cursors' )
  6  union all
  7  select 'open_cursors', lpad(value, 5), to_char(100 * used / value, '9990') || '%'
  8  from ( select max(sum(s.value)) used from V$STATNAME n, V$SESSTAT s
  9  where n.name in ('opened cursors current', 'session cursor cache count') and s.statistic# = n.statistic# group by s.sid ),
 10  ( select value from V$PARAMETER where name = 'open_cursors' );

PARAMETER                     VALUE   USAGE
----------------------------- ------- -------
session_cached_cursors           50      14%
open_cursors                    300       8%

orcl>
I'm not sure what it is telling me.
@fairdaus, please can you explain?

PARAMETER VALUE USAGE
----------------------------- ------- -------
session_cached_cursors 50 14%
open_cursors 300 8%


open_cursors-(at sql prompt show parameter open_cursors)
cursor opens in application,value column telling
total configured (init.ora) and usage saying how much % of its currently being used ,8% in your case


session_cached_cursors-there many cursors which are opened and closed by application,some are reused,depending on which of cursors being reused (3 times),oracle put into cache for future use again this is session_cached_cursors,
in above query result value-50 (at sql prompt show parameter session_cached_cursors) is configured on your database
and 14% is used in current sessions(this may change during
different time depending on usage)

increasing this will take more memory from shared pool

Didn't the value of 1014% suggest to you that the calculation is just wrong?

try this out:

olumn parameter format a29
column value format a5
column usage format a5
select 'session_cached_cursors' parameter, lpad(value, 5) value,
decode(value, 0, ' n/a', to_char(100 * used / value, '990') || '%') usage
from ( select max(s.value) used from V$STATNAME n, V$SESSTAT s
where n.name = 'session cursor cache count' and s.statistic# = n.statistic# ),
( select value from V$PARAMETER where name = 'session_cached_cursors' )
union all
select 'open_cursors', lpad(value, 5), to_char(100 * used / value, '990') || '%'
from ( select max(sum(s.value)) used from V$STATNAME n, V$SESSTAT s
where n.name in ('opened cursors current', 'session cursor cache count') and s.statistic# = n.statistic# group by s.sid ),
( select value from V$PARAMETER where name = 'open_cursors' );










but i think fairdus is seeking explanation on this parameter values returned from the view instead of bothering actual values
(trying to interpret output)
