AWR snapshots taking too long -- fixed object stats

edited Dec 20, 2013 2:57PM in Database Tuning (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered

Oracle 11.2.0.3 with PSU 16902043.  AWR snapshots have suddenly stopped working.  I used the information in Doc 1301503.1 to determine that they are starting, but are not completing.  Doc 1392603.1 suggests that fixed object stats might be nonexistant or stale.  I checked, and it looks like dbms_stats.gather_fixed_object_stats has not been run in YEARS!  Questins:

1.  When is the best time to run dbms_stats.gather_fixed_object_stats?  Should it be during a typical workload or can it be done with a lesser workload and the resulting stats still be okay?

2.  Will running dbms_stats.gather_fixed_object_stats affect users?  That is, will users notice any performance drag while it runs?

Howdy, Stranger!
