Hi All,
I have oracle 9i on an AIX 8 cpu server. I have run a dmbs_gatherstats and have noticed that only a single cpu is being used. can anyone tell me what oracle parameters should be set to make use of all 8 cpus. I understand that there are various arguements that can be called from the dbms_gahterstats package too which help. can anyone provide a list.

best regards

Alan.

The docs for the gather procedures provide a list of args and their purposes. Check out the one called degree. If you want stats collection to be parallelized, but not other operations on the table. If you want as much as possible to be done in parallel for a specific table, then set the degree attribute of the table itself.
