If the user is complaining the hang problem ..then the experience of a dba reflects the work style that he
is going to perform and basically as the rule suggest first try to connect to the database itself and fire
some query to check whethere you are allowed to connect or not if you are connected then check for any
locked_objects by checking v$locked_object and dba_waiters and dba_blockers.then you have to
eliminate the things which are working properly and targetting yourself to the weaker place and then
check at os level that which process is consuming the most of the time and then analyze the problem if

the problem relates to a single user process then check what that user is doing by checking the sql
statement he is firing.than so on

1. Check whether the execution plan of various SQL statements have been changed which may happen
due to Bulk inserts and updates.
2. Try to gather statistics on regular basis.
3. Check the server side resources using top, vmstat, iostat, sar utilities.
4. Check the storage side
5. Check the network side

First check the Alert log file if any error related to hang issue such. Then I would like to suggest one
important step, that is please check archive log destination whether it has enough space, some times
when archive log destination got 100% full the database will be hanged and no one can connect to the
database apart from dba.

The best way to check for the number of invalid objects is using the "UTLRP.SQL" which compiles all the
objects source code and lists the number of invalid objects. One after getting the number of invalid
objects query v$BH table to get the name of all the invalid objects

steps.
1. Login to unix
2. At $prompt 'crontab -l' use this command to check what jobs are already
scheduled.
3. To edit or configure a job use " crontab -e" it will open crontab file which
is same like editing file in vi editor. Now schedule the jobs as per your
requirement.
It look like this
02***
The above file will be executed daily at 2 am
1 2 3 4 5 = specific time tags
- where 1 = Minute (of hour) to activate [0-59]
2 = Hour (of day) to activate [0-23]
3 = Day (of month) to activate [1-31 ... 29,30,31 may not activate during all
months]
4 = Month (of year) to activate [1-12 or 3-letter names "Jan,Feb,Mar"]
