Reviewing Workload Capture Reports

The workload capture report contains various types of information that can be used to assess the validity of the workload capture. Using the information provided in this report, you can determine if the captured workload:

  • Represents the actual workload you want to replay

  • Does not contain any workload you want to exclude

  • Can be replayed

The information contained in the workload capture report is divided into the following categories:

  • Details about the workload capture (such as the name of the workload capture, defined filters, date, time, and SCN of capture)

  • Overall statistics about the workload capture (such as the total DB time captured, and the number of logins and transactions captured) and the corresponding percentages with respect to total system activity

  • Profile of the captured workload

  • Profile of the uncaptured workload due to version limitations

  • Profile of the uncaptured workload that was excluded using defined filters

  • Profile of the uncaptured workload that consists of background process or scheduled jobs
