hi, anyone can enlighten me the script to retrieve the
execution plan for a running session (like the one we see
in the DBA Studio) from sqlplus for an Oracle 8i database??

Thank you!!

Hi, I suppose the can only generate the execution plan for the
current session, how to generate execution plan for other
running sessions (SIDs)??

Thank you.

Take the query and use EXPLAIN PLAN.

Hi Michel, thanks for the advise!

I can get the execution plan now with the provided SQL.

I also found below way to generate sql trace (in bdump/udump)
using spid: -

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Obtain the SPID from v$process.
SQL> select username, spid from v$process;

Turn on SQL Trace for the session
SQL> conn / as sysdba
SQL> oradebug setospid 15750
SQL> oradebug unlimit
SQL> oradebug event 10046 trace name context forever, level 12

Turn off SQL Trace for the session
SQL> conn / as sysdba
SQL> oradebug setospid 15750
SQL> oradebug event 10046 trace name context off

Format Trace file using TKprof
- tkprof tracefile outfile

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just to share......

Instead of using oradebug (normally only for debugging with support help), use dbms_system (before 10g) and dbms_monitor (from 10g).

V$SQLPLAN does not exist in 8i, so the best you could do would be to suck the SQL out of V$SQLTEXT and then run it through Explain Plan.

The problem is that in 8i, V$SQLTEXT busts the SQL up into equal-length strings and is hideously difficult to re-concatenate in syntactically correct form.
