About the Findings area

For selected tabs in Precise products, the association area includes the Findings area, displaying problematic findings for the application. The findings feature is a high level tool, designed to provide the user with an overview of performance issues within the monitored application and enable quick and efficient navigation to the relevant tab for further analysis and handling. The displayed performance findings may indicate performance deterioration as well as incorrect methods usage. Each finding appears as a row in the displayed table of findings. Hover the mouse indicator over the single-line displayed finding to expand the finding. When expanded, the finding details area provides important guidelines as to what may be the root cause for the reported problem, and what the recommended steps are to resolve this problem.

  • When Precise for Oracle carries out an explain plan operation, it needs to connect to the database. By default, it uses the Oracle account specified during the installation. This option lets you override the database user and password that will be used.
  • Precise for Oracle's own parsing functions can be disabled at the expense of some of the formatting features of the explain plan. This option is useful when Precise for Oracle cannot parse a statement. See “About About Precise for Oracle tabs” on page 21tabs.
  • You can fine-tune the way that Precise for Oracle generates alternatives to SQL in a number of ways:
    • You can control the maximum number of alternative SQL statements.
    • You can control the percentage of the items that are highlighted in the Oracle explain tree based on “In Oracle Time”.
    • You can have Precise for Oracle ignore alternatives that generate the same execution plan.
    • When Precise for Oracle generates alternatives (referred to as Related SQL), any views are expanded to show the full view text, rather than just the name.
    • If a Precise for Oracle view is expanded, Precise for Oracle may consider rewriting the text of the view itself, not just the statement that uses the view, when it generates alternatives.
    • You can have Precise for Oracle use different Oracle Optimizer modes.
