如果Oracle数据库hang了，对Oracle进行system dump或hang analyze，是研究和解决问题的有效方法。如果能够连接数据库，并进行操作，则使用oradebug是最简单快捷的办法。
但有的时候，数据库由于hang住，sqlplus不能连接时(在10g可以尝试用sqlplus -prelim连接数据库），可以使用操作系统上的调试工具来dump oracle系统状态。因为我的环境是linux，所以我先从gdb来介绍。
①首先获得要dump的进程号
ps -ef | grep LOCAL
oracle 9015 1 0 12:28 ? 00:00:00 oracleretest (DESCRIPTION=(LOCAL=YES)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=beq)))
oracle 9110 8981 0 14:09 pts/4 00:00:00 grep LOCAL
②调用gdb进行dump
gdb $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle 9015
