Until 11g ,tracing was synonymous with sessions. You could not trace anything other than sessions (Don’t take this literally)—
—
With 11g you have the option of tracing individual SQL’s by means a event/trigger. This is very useful if you are executing a long running process and interested in tracing only a particular SQL. You can trace the SQL either at session level or system level.
…
Syntax
- alter system set events ‘sql_trace [sql:sql_id] level 12’
- alter session set events ‘sql_trace [sql:sql_id] level 12’
Note: The SQL trace command can be executed for more than 1 SQL_ID too by separating the sql_id’s with pipe symbol
alter system set events ‘sql_trace [sql:sql_id|sql_id] level 12′;

Steps to Trace the SQL
—
Step-1: Execute the following Query to get the SQL_ID.
.
SQL>select object_name from dba_objects where object_name=’DBA_TABLES’;
—
Step-2: Find the SQL_ID from v$sql
.. SQL> column sql_text format a80 SQL> set lines 120 pages 2000 SQL> set long 3000 SQL> SQL> select sql_id , sql_text from v$sql where sql_text like '%select object_name from dba_objects where object_name=%'; SQL_ID SQL_TEXT ------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- gynhgrz60jayw select object_name from dba_objects where object_name='DBA_TABLES' 3n6v2xv2s5wm4 select sql_id , sql_text from v$sql where sql_text like '%select object_name fro m dba_objects where object_name=%' --
.
Step-3: Enable the trace for the SQL_ID
—
.
SQL> alter system set events ‘sql_trace [sql:gynhgrz60jayw] level 12’;
System altered
.
Step-4: Execute the SQL statement to generate trace
—
.
SQL> select object_name from dba_objects where object_name=’DBA_TABLES’;
OBJECT_NAME
————————————————————————————————————————
DBA_TABLES

Step-5: Analyze the trace file. This is the fun part. Identifying problem SQL is often easy but fixing it …
