Details
Oracle Database 11g introduces Database Replay and SQL Performance Analyzer as part of the Real Application Testing option. Real Application Testing provides businesses with the the capability of identifying issues with system and database changes before production deployment. The main goal of making Real Application Testing functionality available in earlier releases is to enable customers to upgrade to higher database releases.
This note provides information on the Real Application Testing functionality available for pre-11g database releases as well as mandatory patches that are required for 11g databases.
SQL Performance Analyzer allows users to identify SQL performance regressions caused by system changes such as adding an index, gathering optimizer statistics, implementing partitioning, RDBMS upgrades, etc. SQL Performance Analyzer assesses the impact of change on SQL response times by executing each SQL serially with production context (bind variables, optimizer environment, etc.) before and after a change and then providing a report highlighting any performance divergences.
Database Replay allows users to perform comprehensive testing of database and infrastructure changes using real application workloads. It allows capture of production workload including concurrency, think time, and transactions dependencies, and allows users to replay the workload on a test system with the exact same production characteristics so that all problems can be identified and remediated in test before deploying the change to production.
Please check the Licensing Information manual on OTN for details regarding licensing of Real Application Testing Option.

Actions
Real Application Testing on Earlier Releases
To install Real Application Testing functionality on pre-11g database releases, opatch utility should be used. Follow the instructions for the generic and platform specific README for the patches. If you want to only use Database Replay or SQL Performance Analyzer, then only the patch(es) for that particular functionality need to be applied. If you want to use both Database Replay and SQL Performance Analyzer, the patches for both the functionalities need to be applied.
Database Replay
To assist customers in upgrading to Oracle Database 11g and higher, the capture functionality of Database Replay has been made available in previous releases as shown in the table below.
NOTE: The replay of the captured workload can only be done on Oracle Database 11g and higher.
Please refer to Oracle documentation on OTN for information on the capture part of Database Replay available for the earlier releases.

Enabling Workload Capture (Only Required for 10.2.0.4.0)
By default, the workload capture is disabled on the pre-11g database releases. Database workload capture functionality is enabled on the system by specifying the PRE_11G_ENABLE_CAPTURE initialization parameter. In order to enable workload capture on 10.2.0.4 run the wrrenbl.sql script at the SQL prompt as SYS or SYSTEM as follows:
The wrrenbl.sql script calls the ALTER SYSTEM SQL statement to set the PRE_11G_ENABLE_CAPTURE initialization parameter to TRUE.
This step is NOT required for version lower then 10.2.0.4.0
Please check the OTN documentation mentioned above for more details.
SQL Performance Analyzer
SQL Performance Analyzer functionality has been enhanced and made available in earlier releases to help customers upgrade their databases from Oracle 9.x, 10.1.x, and 10.2.x to higher releases. Applying the one-off patches shown below will install the SQL Performance Analyzer functionality for that release. After the functionality has been installed, customers can then leverage Oracle Database 11g SQL Performance Analyzer functionality to upgrade from any database releases 9.x, 10.1.x, 10.2.x to 10.2 or higher release. The one-off patches that need to be applied depend on the version of the source and the destination databases as indicated in the table below.
Further information on this topic is available in the technical white paper:
It is recommended to review this document before using SQL Performance Analyzer functionality for earlier releases.
- If an Oracle 11.1.0.6 database is to be used to orchestrate SPA on Oracle Database 10.2, please apply the following patch:
<Patch 6865809> RAT/SPA MISSING KEY FUNCTIONALITIES TO SUPPORT TEST UPGRADE FROM 9I TO 10.2
This patch enables Oracle 11.1.0.6 test database to consume SQL trace files from previous database releases and generate a SQL Tuning Set (STS). The STS can then be used as input for the SQL Performance Analyzer task. - Patches applied on Oracle Database 10.2 source or destination databases enable Remote SQL Test Execution functionality on that release for more accurate analysis of performance data.
