oraDbSysPhysWrites

Module: ORADB-MIB

OID (symbolic): ORADB-MIB::oraDbSysPhysWrites

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.111.4.1.1.1.9

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: the 'physical writes' parameter from v$sysstat

What is oraDbSysPhysWrites?

This counter reports the 'physical writes' statistic from v$sysstat, the total number of data blocks written from the buffer cache out to disk, mainly by DBWR at checkpoints. Sudden spikes correlate with checkpoint or free-buffer pressure and are worth cross-checking against disk I/O latency graphs.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.111.4.1.1.1.9
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> ORADB-MIB::oraDbSysPhysWrites

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.111.4.1.1.1.9.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> ORADB-MIB::oraDbSysPhysWrites.1
