Assign higher database priority for a specificset of SAP dialog users/transactionsAll other dialog transactions should run withdefault priority

PrerequisitesOracle 11.2.0.2 or higherSAP kernel version 7.x or higherSAP Bundle Patch for Oracle 11.2.0.2 fromApril 2011 or higher

Oracle Database Resource Manager for SAP (I)Oracle Database Resource Manager for SAP (I)

How It Works in BriefWorkload Management uses theDBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER package

Workload Management is done via switching ofOracle sessions between predefined consumergroups, to which different levels of resources areassigned

Switching relies on rules defined by theSET_CONSUMER_GROUP_MAPPING subprogram ofDBMS_RESOURCE_MANAGER

SAP database layer for Oracle (DBSL) sendsthe SAP transaction details (‘client_identifier’ inapplication info) to the database


PerformancePerformance Impact: less than 5%Priority switch decision happens withstandard priority

RestrictionsNo JDBC/Java connection support

SupportCurrently as of SAP kernel release 7.x
