11g之前，通常我们数据库hang住了之后，我们会对数据库做hang analyze来进行分析，在11g之后，我们可以通过一个新的视图v$wait_chains来诊断数据库hang和contention。在11gR1这个版本里面，Oracle通过diag进程实现了一个功能，每隔3秒做一次本地的hang analyze，每隔10秒做一次global的hang analyze。而这些信息会存放在内存里面，Oracle把这一块内存称作”hang analysis cache”。而这一部分内存信息，对我们数据库诊断hang和contention起着非常重要的作用。而数据库还有一些特性及工具也需要使用这块内存区域。比如Hang Management, Resource Manager Idle Blocker Kill, SQL Tune Hang Avoidance和pmon清除，还有一些外部工具如Procwatcher。

因为在11gR2的v$session视图中有一个字段叫final_blocking_session,这个字段能够去查看最上层的阻塞者。最终的blocker一般都处于wait_chain的顶端。这样的session才会引起问题。我们先来看看普通的查询.首先随便制造两个session共同更新一行的情况。

SELECT chain_id, num_waiters, in_wait_secs, osid, blocker_osid, substr(wait_event_text,1,30) FROM v$wait_chains;

使用final_blocking_session字段，能查到最上端的阻塞进程。
