Steadily Increasing UNDO but "seems" no process using the UNDO.!

Kepler_080Oct 29 2013 — edited Nov 1 2013

Hi All,

I've been reading some materials to solve this issue on our database (Oracle 11.2.0.3.0) . The problem is that we have been increasing UNDO from 35G to almost 60G now. and it is still increasing in usage. But I cannot detect any transaction using the undo. If you have any insights, that will be great. Below are the information I have gathered.

Datafiles are not autoextensible.

FILE_NAME                                                    BYTES/1048576 AUT MAXBYTES/1048576

------------------------------------------------------------ ------------- --- ----------------

****/undotbs1.260.802515529              31744 NO                 0

****/undotbs1.270.828813025              28672 NO                 0

Some undo parameters.

SQL> show parameter undo

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE

------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------

undo_management                      string      AUTO

undo_retention                       integer     1800

undo_tablespace                      string      UNDOTBS1

SQL> select max(maxquerylen) from v$undostat;

MAX(MAXQUERYLEN)

----------------

           19628

SQL> select max(undoblks) from v$undostat;

MAX(UNDOBLKS)

-------------

         9706

I cannot detect any transaction using the UNDO except for a MERGE statement that has been running for almost 3 weeks but it does not show up on the UNDO except for this Toad.exe. Could it be that there were some transactions not commited on the App side?
