摘要：v$session_event中的SID与v$session不一致的BUG
总述：Oracle 9.2.0.1在察看会话等待事件时显示错位。TOAD等工具也没有修正这一错误，会造成通过session browser察看会话时看到的等待事件及合计实际是其他会话的。
问题的本质是Oracle 9.2.0.1的v$session_event视图中的SID与v$session中的SID相差了1。这一bug在9.2.0.3后修复。在没有升级的情况下可以使用如下语句察看会话的等待事件累计：
select b.sid,
decode(b.username, null, substr(b.program, 18), b.username) username,event,
a.total_waits,
a.total_timeouts,
a.time_waited,
a.average_wait,
a.max_wait,
a.time_waited_micro
from v$session_event a, v$session b
where b.sid = a.sid + 1
order by b.sid, a.time_waited desc

Rediscovery Information:
To be seeing this bug the following must be true :
1. You are on a release that is 9.2.0.1 or higher
2. V$SESSION_EVENTS will have a missing SID when compared to V$SESSION
3. The wait information is out of sequence. Session 2’s waits will be
reported under session 1, session 3’s waits under session 2 and so on
]] [G]V$SESSION_WAIT now returns the correct wait information for a specified
]] sessionid

ALERT: SID Values in V$SESSION and V$SESSION_EVENT Do Not Match
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Versions Affected
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This problem is introduced in Oracle Server 9.2.0.1 and is present in 9.2.0.2
An attempt is made here in this article to increase the visibility of
[BUG:2429929] which many customers are facing as they move on to Oracle9i
The fix to this bug is addressed in Oracle Server patchset 9.2.0.3 and above
Platforms Affected
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENERIC
Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
The V$SESSION_EVENT and GV$SESSION_EVENT views in Oracle Server 9.2.0.1 and
9.2.0.2 will return misleading information as the SID column has incorrect
value (i.e., V$SESSION_EVENT.SID actually has value V$SESSION.SID - 1)
Hence, any joins between V$SESSION_EVENT and V$SESSION will return information
for the wrong session unless V$SESSION.SID - 1 is used in join predicate
This article is intended for customers who use Oracle’s or third party
provided performance measurement and diagnostics Tools / Scripts / SQL’s
This includes Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM), UTLBSTAT-ESTAT, STATSPACK, etc
Likelihood of Occurrence
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Customers are very unlikely to be aware of this bug as there is no error
associated
Comparing the output for below two SQL’s in Oracle Server 9.2.0.1 and 9.2.0.2
will reveal that the SID value in V$SESSION_EVENT is appearing to be one
number less than in V$SESSION
SQL> SELECT DISTINCT SID FROM V$SESSION
/
SQL> SELECT DISTINCT SID FROM V$SESSION_EVENT
/
Example:
SQL> SELECT DISTINCT SID FROM V$SESSION;
SID
----------
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
13
32
12 rows selected
SQL> SELECT DISTINCT SID FROM V$SESSION_EVENT;
SID
----------
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
12 <<<
31 <<< SID’s 12 & 31 doesn’t exists in v$session
11 rows selected
Possible Symptoms
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Customers will receive conflicting results when performing a query like the one
below. This type of query is often run when trying to trace
sessions using a disproportionate amount of resources
Finding the SID/SERIAL# of a user showing a particular type of wait:
SELECT s.sid , s.serial#, s.status, s.server, s.username,
e.event, e.time_waited
FROM v$session_event e, v$session s
WHERE e.sid=s.sid
AND e.event like ’&WAITEVENT_TO_CHECK’
AND e.time_waited > ’&WAIT_TIME_THRESHOLD’
Workaround
~~~~~~~~~~
Use join predicate V$SESSION_EVENT.SID = V$SESSION.SID - 1 in SQL queries
Patches
~~~~~~~
Fix to this bug is addressed in Oracle Server patchset 9.2.0.3 and above
In order to ensure the highest level of support, Oracle strongly recommends
you to apply the latest patchset available for your platform
