Definition

This submonitor in the SAP/Oracle Database Monitor lets you view the shared cursor cache from the viewpoint of the tables accessed. This helps you to identify performance problems for a table rather than for a statement, such as a missing index on a table.

You can double-click a row on the screen Summary on Table Level to see the details of operations for a table. The only differences from the previous screen are:

¡        The column Operation is new.

¡        The column Table no longer appears.

You can double-click a row on the screen Detail of Operations for <Table Name> to display the detail screen with the complete SQL statement in the final column.

From this screen you can select a row and choose:

¡        Execution Plan of SQL statement to display the execution plan

¡        Call Point in ABAP Program to display the ABAP coding, positioned at the calling point of the parsed statement
