Load Average

in Database Administration (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered ✓

Hi,

On 19c on AIX,

In AWR report I have:


My questions are:

1-what is the unit of Load average?

2-How are load averages calculated ? And why an average for begining and one for the end? Can we have an average of something at a point? Usually it is on a periode of time.

3-Why a decimal number for sockets? Aren't they the number of physical sockets?

Thanks.

Howdy, Stranger!
