Check ORACLE_PATCH 29259068 for RDBMS home

Recommendation
Benefit / Impact:

This would fix one of the top issues since 12.2 where automatic optimizer statistics collection job takes long time due to MERGE query on MON_MODS_ALL$. The performance of the MERGE query is now improved.

Risk:

Automatic optimizer statistics collection job would take long time due to poor performance of MERGE query on MON_MODS_ALL$.

Action / Repair:

It is highly recommended to download & apply the Patch 29259068.

Check ORACLE_PATCH 26749785 for RDBMS home

Recommendation
Benefit / Impact:

Currently there is no option to disable automatic statistics advisor that runs everyday during maintenance window and incur huge SYSAUX space. This fix would provide the new preference "AUTO_STATS_ADVISOR_TASK" in DBMS_STATS to enable/disable AUTO_STATS_ADVISOR_TASK manually.

Risk:

The statistics advisor runs everyday during maintenance window and incurs high SYSAUX space.

Action / Repair:

It is highly recommended to download & apply the Patch 26749785. You can run the following command to disable advisor.

SQL> exec DBMS_STATS.set_global_prefs('AUTO_STATS_ADVISOR_TASK','FALSE');

Check ORACLE_PATCH 29867728 for RDBMS home

Recommendation
Benefit / Impact:

This would fix one of the critical issues reported since 12.2 regarding SQL regression with UNION ALL PUSHED PREDICATE (JPPD) query transformation.

Risk:

There could be SQL plan regression found for SQL statement using UNION ALL where the plan shows 'UNION ALL PUSHED PREDICATE' and runs for long time.

Action / Repair:

It is highly recommended to download & apply the Patch 29867728. Remember to enable the fix control after applying the patch.

ALTER SYSTEM SET "_FIX_CONTROL"="29867728:1" SCOPE=BOTH;

  1. Note: 29867728.8 - Bug 29867728 - UNION ALL PUSHED PREDICATE Is Chosen On 19c When UNION-ALL Plan May Have Less Cost

Check ORACLE_PATCH 31031240 for RDBMS home

Recommendation
Benefit / Impact:

This would fix one of the issues reported in 19c for slow inserts to global temporary table (GTT).

Risk:

The elapsed time for Insert into global temporary table (GTT) keeps on increasing proportionately with growing no.of records to the GTT.

Action / Repair:

It is highly recommended to download & apply the Patch 31031240.

Check ORACLE_PATCH 29423227 for RDBMS home

Recommendation
Benefit / Impact:

This would fix one of the issues reported in 19c for 'library cache lock' waits where the hang might happen when dropping a partition with global indexes created in the table.

Risk:

The SQL command to drop a partition with global indexes created in the table might hang with 'library cache lock' wait.

Action / Repair:

It is recommended to download & apply the Patch 29423227 if 'alter table drop partition' command is executed with global indexes
