很多时候由于异常或程序错误会导致个别进程占用大量系统资源，需要结束这些进程，通常可以使用以下命令Kill进程:
alter system kill session 'sid,serial#';
但是此命令释放资源极为缓慢，具体可以参考:Oracle中Kill session的研究.
为了更快速的释放资源，通常我们使用如下步骤来Kill进程:
1.首先在操作系统级kill进程
2.在数据库内部kill session
这样通常可以快速中止进程，释放资源。
今天就遇到这样一个案例，其他朋友在数据库里kill session,可是长时间仍无效果:
[oracle@danaly ~]$ sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production on Thu Oct 27 11:09:50 2005
Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
With the Partitioning, Oracle Label Security, OLAP and Data Mining Scoring Engine options
SQL select sid,username,status from v$session;
SID USERNAME STATUS
---------- ------------------------------ --------
....
154 SCOTT KILLED
...
30 rows selected.
那按照我前面提到的步骤，首先查询得到该session对应的OS进程号:
SQL select 'kill -9 '||spid from v$process where addr = (select paddr from v$session where sid=&sid);
Enter value for sid: 154
old 1: select 'kill -9 '||spid from v$process where addr = (select paddr from v$session where sid=&sid)
new 1: select 'kill -9 '||spid from v$process where addr = (select paddr from v$session where sid=154)
'KILL-9'||SPID
--------------------
kill -9 22702
SQL !
在操作系统级kill该进程:
[oracle@danaly ~]$ ps -ef|grep 22702
oracle 22702 1 0 Oct25 ? 00:00:02 oracledanaly (LOCAL=NO)
oracle 12082 12063 0 11:12 pts/1 00:00:00 grep 22702
[oracle@danaly ~]$ kill -9 22702
[oracle@danaly ~]$ ps -ef|grep 22702
oracle 12088 12063 0 11:12 pts/1 00:00:00 grep 22702
[oracle@danaly ~]$ exit
exit
SQL select sid,username,status from v$session;
SID USERNAME STATUS
---------- ------------------------------ --------
...
154 SCOTT KILLED
...
30 rows selected.
SQL select sid,serial#,username from v$session where sid=154;
SID SERIAL# USERNAME
---------- ---------- ------------------------------
154 56090 SCOTT
再次在数据库中kill该session,并指定immediate选项:
SQL alter system kill session '154,56090' immediate;
System altered.
SQL select sid,serial#,username from v$session where sid=154;
no rows selected
此时该进程被迅速清除。
