Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: db buffer cache advisory clarification
I have just tested "resetting" the v$db_cache_)advice view by changing the
parameter to ready and then on again. This "flushed" the advice and started
collecting again. Now when I ran a report I get understandable figures. I
assume the problem must have been that the advice was being collected for so
long that there was some sort of discrepancy at one time in the system.
alter system set db_cache_advice=ready;
alter system set db_cache_advice=on;

I know this doesn't explain why I saw such bizarre data, but at least I am
seeing reasonable data now :-)
