    large pool usage

    1. I want to monitor the usage of large pool during backup and recovery processes and for I/O server processes. Which view can I use for monitoring the same?

    2. This is an excerpt from Oracle doc.
    "Configuring the large pool prevents RMAN from competing with other subsystems for the same memory. Recovery Manager (RMAN) uses the large pool for backup and restore when you set the DBWR_IO_SLAVES or BACKUP_TAPE_IO_SLAVES parameters to simulate asynchronous I/O. If neither of these parameters is enabled, then Oracle allocates backup buffers from local process memory rather than shared memory. Hence, the large pool is not used."

    My question is: Which is the local process memory being referred here? Is it PGA?

    Check usage of large pool from v$sgastat dynamic view. Free space and allocated (used) space you can monitor large pool from same view.

    No, you can't.

    Check V$SGA_CURRENT_RESIZE_OPS for current SGA resize operations happening provided you have ASMM setup.
