Hi All,

I'm trying to resolve 'ORA-02042: too many distributed transactions'.

Are there any tables/views I can use to list or count these distributed transactions?

Any help from you will be deeply appreciated. Thanks.

Kind regards,
/virxiam

There seems to be one table mentioned in the dictionary:

SELECT * FROM DICTIONARY  
 WHERE Lower(comments) 
 LIKE '%distributed transactions%'

ORA-02042: too many distributed transactions
 *Cause: the distributed transaction table was full because too many
        distributed transactions were active.
 *Action: Run fewer transactions.  If you are sure you don't have too
      many concurrent distributed transactions, this indicates an internal
      error and support should be notified.  Instance shutdown/restart
      would be a work-around.

There is no available catalog view for this but if you have SYSDBA access you can query X$K2GTE table.
For instance, from MIKA I open a transaction to MIKB2 and vice versa, the following gives the global transaction ids:

SYS> -- On MIKB2
SYS> select K2GTITID_ORA from X$K2GTE;
K2GTITID_ORA
---------------------------------------------
MIKA.myserver.ee9383b5.10.31.12438
MIKB2.myserver.df482311.3.20.42573

2 rows selected.

SYS> -- On MIKA
SYS> select K2GTITID_ORA from X$K2GTE;
K2GTITID_ORA
---------------------------------------------
MIKB2.myserver.df482311.3.20.42573
MIKA.myserver.ee9383b5.10.31.12438

2 rows selected.

Ooops, speaking too fast, you have V$GLOBAL_TRANSACTION (built on the table I mentioned), same queries:

SYS> select utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(GLOBALID) gtxid from V$GLOBAL_TRANSACTION;
GTXID
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MIKA.myserver.ee9383b5.10.31.12438
MIKB2.myserver.df482311.3.20.42573

2 rows selected.

SYS> select utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(GLOBALID) gtxid from V$GLOBAL_TRANSACTION;
GTXID
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MIKB2.myserver.df482311.3.20.42573
MIKA.myserver.ee9383b5.10.31.12438

2 rows selected.
