How to check number of CPUs are there in Linux system

By

One can use any one of the following command to find the number of physical CPU cores including all cores on Linux:

  • lscpu command
  • cat /proc/cpuinfo
  • top or htop command
  • nproc command


Just run the lscpu command:

$ lscpu
$ lscpu | egrep 'Model name|Socket|Thread|NUMA|CPU\(s\)'
$ lscpu -p[root@shsdascn7i ~]# lscpuArchitecture:          x86_64CPU op-mode(s):        32-bit, 64-bitByte Order:            Little EndianCPU(s):                2On-line CPU(s) list:   0,1Thread(s) per core:    1Core(s) per socket:    1Socket(s):             2NUMA node(s):          1Vendor ID:             GenuineIntelCPU family:            6Model:                 158Model name:            Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHzStepping:              10CPU MHz:               3191.998CPU max MHz:           0.0000CPU min MHz:           0.0000BogoMIPS:              6383.99Hypervisor vendor:     VMwareVirtualization type:   fullL1d cache:             32KL1i cache:             32KL2 cache:              256KL3 cache:              12288KNUMA node0 CPU(s):     0,1Flags:                 fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss syscall nx pdpe1gb rdtscp lm constant_tsc arch_perfmon pebs bts nopl xtopology tsc_reliable nonstop_tsc aperfmperf eagerfpu pni pclmulqdq ssse3 fma cx16 pcid sse4_1 sse4_2 x2apic movbe popcnt tsc_deadline_timer aes xsave avx f16c rdrand hypervisor lahf_lm abm 3dnowprefetch epb fsgsbase tsc_adjust bmi1 hle avx2 smep bmi2 invpcid rtm rdseed adx smap xsaveopt dtherm ida arat pln pts hwp hwp_notify hwp_act_window hwp_epp

Another option is to run lovely htop:
$ htop
Execute nproc print the number of CPUs available on Linux
Let us print the number of installed processors on your system i.e core count:
$ nproc --all
$ echo "Threads/core: $(nproc --all)"
Sample outputs:
[root@shsdascn7i ~]# echo "Threads/core: $(nproc --all)"
Threads/core: 2

How to write to a CSV file using Oracle SQL*Plus

By
  SPOOL command  The  SPOOL  command is  unavailable  in the browser-based SQL*Plus version,  iSQL*Plus . To generate files while using iSQL*Plus, change the necessary preference settings to directly output to a file. This is accomplished using the  SPOOL  statement. While  SPOOL  is  active , SQL*PLus will store the output of any query to the specified file. Therefore, the next command to enter is  spool : spool filepath Skipping ahead slightly,  after  your query is inserted, you also need to halt  spool  so the file output is closed by using the  spool off  command: spool off Insert the query  The last step after the settings are modified and  spool  is running is to insert your query. For our simple example, we’re outputting all books from our  books  table. SELECT   title,   author FROM   authors; Don’t forget the semi...

How to troubleshoot Long Running Concurrent Request in EBS 12.2

By
 The following points need to answer before jumping into troubleshooting: Are there any recent code changes done in the concurrent program?           Check long_running_sid and verify the recent code change of last_ddl_timestamp after a             discussion with the developer. Was this running long in the last few run as well, or was this time only?            ==> Check the program history. How much time does it take to complete?           Once again program history can give us some idea. Are these jobs fetching higher data compared to the last run           ===> Confirm on data change . Query Plan change will indicate this issue. Does this job runs at any specific time or it can be run anytime           ===> The nature of the job can help to understand the job's nature. Does this job fetch data using DB Link...

How to set up the Oracle Wallets in Oracle Database 19C

By
  The Oracle Wallet is a container or repository that stores authentication and credentials such as certificates, certificate requests, and private keys., By using this we can connect to database without providing the schema name & password, Password will be connected by using the TNS ALIES name & hence the schema are encrypted & stored in the oracle wallets. Let us configure the schema password by using the wallets. Create a directory to store the wallets. Create a directory to store the password $ mkdir -p /u01/app/wallets Create a wallet & provide the wallet password. $ mkstore -wrl /u01/app/wallets/ -create Enter password: ********* Enter password again: ******** $ ll total 8 -rw-------. 1 oracle oinstall 194 Nov 1 14:38 cwallet.sso -rw-------. 1 oracle oinstall 0 Nov 1 14:38 cwallet.sso.lck -rw-------. 1 oracle oinstall 149 Nov 1 14:38 ewallet.p12 -rw-------. 1 oracle oinstall 0 Nov 1 14:38 ewallet.p12.lck Check the status of listener $lsnrctl status listener_n...
