Hello Gurus,

I heard that if I can get great ORACLE advice, this is the place, so here is my question. I've been asked to take over an existing db in production. What would be the right way to get a "quick" understanding on what's happening in it in terms ways for proactive tuning? I am just getting started while trying to be ahead of the curve. Is this something I should be looking into, or is it more like if it ain't broke, don't fix it? :). It'd be nice to get started and have a good view on what's going on. Also, can someone can share their experience on what can be done when customers report intermittent, but rather dramatic slowdowns in the system. Please note, the slowdowns are reported to be occurring in the entire system. What would be a good place to look when this happens and get some quick feedback?

Thank you very much!

Best regards,

Alex
