Hello reader,
Last week we faced performance problems also shown on the Oracle 10g Db-Console as 'SQL found consuming ...'; The users of the application mourned everything is going slow. Hm ...
The strange thing was that the same kind of SQL run without problems before. I started to monitor I/O with iostat on the Sun Solaris Database Server. The Storage was based on SAN. The I/O rates were from 5m/s - 10m/s. The devices were about 95%-100% busy and this with an I/O rate with only about 10M/second? Usually 100m/s and more were possible.
The database is gone!!

Dear reader, got a call from user of a web based application that the database was gone!! Now first I checked if the user's message really hit the root cause.
