Confirm a count of the number of cases in the database (run query as Argus Application Schema owner e.g. ARGUS_APP) |
Confirm a rough number of active users on the system when the slowdown is apparent, query below can be used as DBA user: |
Examine database server resource utilization on the db server during slow down period (See Note 2103419.1) |
Examine resource utilization on the Web Server during slow down period. this can be checked using process below: |
Examine resource utilization on the Transaction (AG) Server during the period of slowdown (repeat process above to open resource monitor on Transaction server) |
Confirm when DBMS_STATS were last collected for ESM and ARGUS_APP schemas ? |
Check Tablespace free space on the Oracle Database e.g. run below query from SQL*Developer or SQL*Plus as DBA user: |
Check CMN_ERROR_LOG for any reported issues on date of slowdown E.G. |
Check Argus [Utilities] - Error Logs from Argus UI |
How many web, report, transactional servers are there? If customers have a network diagram then please get that diagram |
Gather AWR (Automatic Workload Repository), ASH (Active Session History), ADDM (Automatic Database Diagnostic Monitor) reports (As needed - Note only required if confirmed to be DB related.) |
If slow performing queries are known – Get the Explain plan of the query with cardinality, cost, time, io. |
Gather a Database trace for the duration/session. |
If slowdown is for AG Service Tasks consider Database Session Log Capture (How to take Database Session Logs for Argus Safety AG Service Tasks? (Doc ID 1508041.1)) |
Check Database Alert log if anything is failing on the database front. |
Capture SQLTimes for application during the slow access period (See Note 1087179.1: Enabling Debug (SQLTIMES) - Oracle Life Sciences Argus Safety) |
Confirm if Using Load Balancer on Web Servers ? |
Confirm if installation is Single or Multi-tenant ? |
Confirm if any Argus or Microsoft Patches been applied since the slowdown period was noted |
