To produce a consolidated formatted trace file from multiple trace files generated by all clients for a single service, the combination oftrcsessandTKPROFutilities is used. Thetrcsessutility consolidates trace files based on specified criteria such as session, client identifier, or service name. This results in a single trace file that combines the desired tracing information. Next,TKPROFis used to format the output of the trace file generated bytrcsess, providing a readable summary of the trace, including execution counts, execution times, and SQL statement text along with execution plans.
Steps:
* Usetrcsessto combine trace files:
* Command:trcsess output=consolidated.trc service=your_service_name *.trc
* UseTKPROFto format the consolidated trace file:
* Command:tkprof consolidated.trc output.txt explain=user/password sys=no sort=prsela,fchela References:

Regarding space usage in temporary tablespaces, the following statements are true:
* A (Correct):When a global temporary table or a sort operation exceeds the available memory, Oracle Database allocates space in a temporary tablespace to store the temporary data or intermediate results.
* E (Correct):Using temporary tablespace groups can prevent insufficient temporary tablespace for sort operations by providing a collective pool of space from multiple temporary tablespaces, which can be used for user sorting operations.
The other options provided have inaccuracies:
* B (Incorrect):Oracle does not provide a mechanism for setting quotas on temporary tablespaces. Quotas can be set for permanent tablespaces but not for temporary ones.
* C (Incorrect):A sort operation may fail due to insufficient space, but Oracle will attempt to allocate space in the temporary tablespace dynamically. If no space can be allocated, an error is returned rather than a sort failure.
* D (Incorrect):If a session consumes all available temporary tablespace storage, Oracle will not hang the session; it will return an error to the session indicating that it has run out of temporary space.

In the provided code block, theDBMS_SERVER_ALERT.SET_THRESHOLDprocedure is used to set alert thresholds for the CPU time per call in Oracle Database. This procedure is a part of Oracle's Database Server Alert system, which monitors various metrics and generates alerts when certain thresholds are exceeded.
The parameters passed to theSET_THRESHOLDprocedure are as follows:
* The first parameterDBMS_SERVER_ALERT.CPU_TIME_PER_CALLspecifies the metric for which the threshold is being set, in this case, the CPU time consumed per database call.
* The second and third parametersDBMS_SERVER_ALERT.OPERATOR_GEand'8000'specify the warning threshold level and its value, respectively. However, these are not relevant to the answer as they are overridden by the critical threshold settings.
* The fourth and fifth parametersDBMS_SERVER_ALERT.OPERATOR_GEand'10000'set the critical threshold level and its value. This means that a critical alert will be generated when the CPU time per call exceeds 10000 microseconds.
* The remaining parameters specify the warning and critical alert intervals, the instance name, the object type, and the service name. These are not directly relevant to the behavior described in the options.
Thus, the correct answer is B, as the critical threshold for CPU time per call is set to 10000 microseconds, and the system is configured to issue a critical alert when this threshold is exceeded.

To reduce the impact of database I/O without increasing the size of the buffer cache and without modifying SQL statements, you can use table compression. Among the given options,ROW STORE COMPRESS ADVANCEDis the most suitable form of table compression to satisfy this requirement.
Advanced row compression (ROW STORE COMPRESS ADVANCED) is designed to work well with all supported types of data, whether it's OLTP or data warehouse environments. It offers a higher level of compression than basic table compression (ROW STORE COMPRESS BASIC)without significant overhead during DML operations. This feature can help reduce the amount of I/O required to retrieve data by storing it more efficiently on disk.
