How did you go about determining the tracefile name within the trigger? I don't think I've ever seen an example for this...

hmmm... here is what I did ...

change user_dump_dest to a file system which has lots of space, 100G in our case modify a logon trigger and for a certain group of people (based on a role) "execute dbms_support.start_trace"; Create a logoff trigger that raises a alert user_logoff and sends a trace file string (actual name of the trace file). I had a SQR report running on both sides of RAC waiting to respond to this alert. As soon as this alert came, it waited 1 second and then went to system and verified that it owned the trace file (based on the instance) and then gzipped it and based on the date moved to a directory. When we got tired of collecting trace files, we stopped the process. All of this is fairly easy to do, it took me about an hour to put this all together.

If you just want sql text, you may want to use "dbms_support.start_trace(false,true)" .. it will avoid wait events listing but will give you bind variables.

Actually, you can capture SQLs relatively inexpensively by using FGA - simply add the "audit_condition => '1=1'" when adding a policy to each table.

For OLTP, this wouldn't make much sense. For ad-hoc (DSS), what you are going to do with all those captured SQLs is another story. ----- Original Message -----

For statistics, logon & logoff triggers + v$mystat + autonomous transactions. If you want to capture all sql, it will be hard & very resource hungry, you either enable trace for given session (which slows stuff down enormously) or poll v$sql or v$open_cursor frequently. This isn't a good idea either. You might want to look at fine grained auditing if you want to track which data is viewed by anybody.

there is a requirement for capturing sqls and cpu consumed by any session logging into the database . this info should be stored in the database.

can you please give me suggestions as to how i do this?
