You can quickly investigate the potential cause of a system performance problem by checking the work process load. You can use the global work process overview to:

• Monitor the work process load on all active instances across the system
• Identify locks in the database (lock waits).

Using the Global Work Process Overview screen, you can see at a glance:

• The status of each application server
• The reason why it is not running
• Whether it has been restarted
• The CPU and request run time
• The user who has logged on and the client that they logged on to
• The report that is running
