V$SQL_MONITOR

V$SQL_MONITOR displays SQL statements whose execution have been (or are being) monitored by Oracle. An entry is created in V$SQL_MONITOR every time the execution of a SQL statement is being monitored. SQL monitoring is automatically started when a SQL statement runs parallel or when it has consumed at least 5 seconds of CPU or I/O time.

When the SQL statement being monitored is executing, statistics in V$SQL_MONITOR are generally refreshed in near real time, once every second. Once the execution ends, monitoring information is not deleted immediately. Instead, it is kept in V$SQL_MONITOR for at least one minute. The entry will eventually be deleted to reclaim its space as new statements are monitored.

`PLSQL_SUBPROGRAM_ID`	`NUMBER`	Subprogram ID of the currently executing PL/SQL object; NULL if executing SQL
`FIRST_REFRESH_TIME`	`DATE`	Time when monitoring of the SQL statement started, generally a few seconds after execution start time
`LAST_REFRESH_TIME`	`DATE`	Time when statistics in `V$SQL_MONITOR` were last updated for the SQL statement. Statistics are generally refreshed every second when the statement executes.
`REFRESH_COUNT`	`NUMBER`	Number of times `V$SQL_MONITOR` statistics have been refreshed (generally once every second when the SQL statement executes)
`SID`	`NUMBER`	Session identifier executing (or having executed) the SQL statement being monitored
`PROCESS_NAME`	`VARCHAR2(5)`	Process name identifier executing (or having executed)the statement; `ora` if the process is foreground, else the background process name (for example, `p001` for PX server p001)
`SQL_ID`	`VARCHAR2(13)`	SQL identifier of the statement being monitored
`SQL_TEXT`	`VARCHAR2(2000)`	Up to the first 2000 characters of the text of the SQL being monitored

`SQL_EXEC_START`	`DATE`	Time when the execution started
`SQL_EXEC_ID`	`NUMBER`	Execution identifier. Together, the three columns `SQL_ID`, `SQL_EXEC_START`, and `SQL_EXEC_ID` represent the execution key. The execution key is used to uniquely identify one execution of the SQL statement.
`SQL_PLAN_HASH_VALUE`	`NUMBER`	SQL Plan hash value
`EXACT_MATCHING_SIGNATURE`	`NUMBER`	Signature calculated on the normalized SQL text. The normalization includes the removal of white space and the uppercasing of all non-literal strings.
`FORCE_MATCHING_SIGNATURE`	`NUMBER`	Same as `EXACT_MATCHING_SIGNATURE` but literals in the SQL text are replaced by binds
`SQL_CHILD_ADDRESS`	`RAW(4 \| 8)`	Address of the child cursor (can be used with `SQL_ID` to join with `V$SQL`)

`PX_IS_CROSS_INSTANCE`	`VARCHAR2(1)`	Indicates whether the SQL statement ran parallel across multiple instances (`Y`) or not (`N`)
`PX_MAXDOP`	`NUMBER`	Maximum degree of parallelism for any plan operation executed on behalf of the monitored SQL
`PX_MAXDOP_INSTANCES`	`NUMBER`	Number of database instances touched at the maximum degree of parallelism

`PX_SERVER_GROUP`	`NUMBER`	Logical parallel execution server group number to which `PX_SERVER#` belongs (see `SERVER_GROUP` in `V$PX_SESSION`); NULL if this monitoring entry is not associated with a parallel execution server. This value is generally `1` unless the SQL statement has one or more parallel sub-queries.
`PX_SERVER_SET`	`NUMBER`	Number (`1` or `2`) of the logical set of parallel execution servers to which `PX_SERVER#` belongs (see `SERVER_SET` in `V$PX_SESSION`); NULL if this monitoring entry is not associated with a parallel execution server
