Hi Friends,
when i execute the below statement,
SELECT sid, user_name, COUNT(*) "Cursors per session"
FROM v$open_cursor
GROUP BY sid, user_name
I have about 379 as result.
In my init.ora, the parameter "open_cursors=400".
What factors should be taken into consideration to increase this value?

Hi Michel,
thanks,
this means that if we take the below output (in red), the user mnswcp is connected to the database and is using 34 cursors over the total of 400 that I have.
SID USER_NAME Cursors per session
15 MNSWCP 34
From which I read, if there is a cursor problem, I should get "ORA-01000 Open Cursor error".
Fortunately, till now I haven,t get this error. But to be on the safe side, I want to increase the open cursors value.
Can you please tell me which factors should be taken into consideration to increase this value.
Thx

Apparently you don't need to increase that parameter.
Given 400 as open cursor limit per session , and 34 as the current open cursors for that user, the session has margin for 366 additional cursors to open.
In other words , every session has 400 cursors to open.
Best Regards
Ignacio

Hi Friends,
I made a statistics yesterday and I noticed that over the total (open_cursors) of 400 that I have in the parameter file, an average of 350-375 are being used.
Fortunately, till now I haven't come across the error 'ORA-01000 Open Cursor error'.
Can I increase it, to be on the safe side?
Thx

Hi All,
it's said that 'The maximum value of this parameter is operating system dependent'.
I have Solaris 8 and oracle 9db. 600M SGA, 3GB Physical memory. Can you please tell me the maximum value I can set for this parameter.
Thx
Dirish

No, I can't. Ask Oracle or try all values you can.

I answered:
That is "this very one you are currently writing in".
