How to audit a closed DB connection due to timeout?

garywickeFeb 6 2014 — edited Feb 13 2014

Environment:


Oracle 11.2.0.3 EE on Solaris 10


I have an environment where a Pentaho instance is loading data into the Oracle database.  The load action opens a database connection, reads some data and then takes a long time (60-90 minutes) to process the data and then attempts to write the data to the database using the same connection.


We are seeing a timeout error: "Io exception: Connection timed out"   coming out of Pentaho after about 60 minutes.

I have the following settings in SQLNET.ORA:


SQLNET.EXPIRE_TIME=120

The firewall settings have been verified to not include anything that would terminate a connection after 60 minutes.


I would like to learn more about the disconnection that seems to be happening from the database side.


What auditing option/command/setting can be sued to gather more detail about when the database senses a disconnected or idle process and hence terminates the connection?


Thanks very much!!
