11g之前，通常我们数据库hang住了之后，我们会对数据库做hang analyze来进行分析，在11g之后。我们能够通过一个新的视图v$wait_chains来诊断数据库hang和contention。在11gR1这个版本号里面，Oracle通过diag进程实现了一个功能。每隔3秒做一次本地的hang analyze。每隔10秒做一次global的hang analyze。而这些信息会存放在内存里面，Oracle把这一块内存称作”hang analysis cache”。而这一部分内存信息，对我们数据库诊断hang和contention起着很关键的数据。而数据库另一些特性及工具也须要使用这块内存区域。比方Hang Management, Resource Manager Idle Blocker Kill, SQL Tune Hang Avoidance和pmon清除，另一些外部工具如Procwatcher。
我们看一下v$wait_chains视图的定义。以11gR2为例。
SQL> desc v$wait_chains

继续查询该视图的定义。
能够发现该数据来自于基表x$ksdhng_chains。由于前面介绍过进程会10秒做一次global的hang，所以这个视图是包括了全局的信息的。
尽管它是v$开头的。

Oracle在mos上提供了一些脚本来做一些信息诊断。一种是普通版本号的都可以使用的，另一种是11gR2专用的。由于在11gR2的v$session视图中有一个字段叫final_blocking_session,这个字段可以去查看最上层的堵塞者。
终于的blocker一般都处于wait_chain的顶端。这种session才会引起问题。我们先来看看普通的查询.首先随便制造两个session共同更新一行的情况。
SQL> SELECT chain_id, num_waiters, in_wait_secs, osid, blocker_osid, substr(wait_event_text,1,30)
2 FROM v$wait_chains;
CHAIN_ID NUM_WAITERS IN_WAIT_SECS OSID BLOCKER_OSID SUBSTR(WAIT_EVENT_TEXT,1,30)
---------- ----------- ------------ ------------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------
1 0 8 31377 31447 enq: TX - row lock contention

这里可以看到当前会话是2395在等待enq: TM – contention，而它的顶级堵塞者是2309。通过这些脚本我们可以方便的进行查询。可以方便的找到谁是堵塞者。甚至是最上层的堵塞者。当然在我们的diaghang.sql的脚本里面。我们看到了下列内容。这里Oracle通过我们内存直接訪问，从x$ksdhng_chains里面把chain的信息所有获取出来，用于终于的hang分析的诊断。
