Dear all,

V$OSSTAT displays system utilization statistics from the operating system. One row is returned for each system statistic.
SELECT stat_name, value, cumulative FROM v$osstat ORDER BY stat_name;

I was wondering why trace file analyzer include OS watcher in unix platform but not in windows platform. so I was wondering if we really need to have an additional tools to monitor CPU, Memory and Disk IO

Thanks a lot!

There is no oswatcher for Windows because Windows doesn't have the utilities it uses: vmstat, iostat, netstat, probably a few others. As for whether you need those tools, well, the information shown in v$osstat is pretty limited, isn't it?

Dear John,

from https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/win.112/e10845/monitor.htm#NTQRF234

Using Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor
in the 11.2.0.4 we have oracle counters for windows performance monitor, but the feature is no longer available in 12.2.0.1

I was wondering what are the counters that I should add or is there a official or mos documentation that have the list of counters that we should monitor?

of course some counters are pretty obvious that we should add like


logical disk
%disk read time
%disk time
%disk write time

thanks!
