This table function is only supported in Constant Mode.

The following CPU fields in the MonitorSession response are affected by the MonSesCPUNormalization field:
  • AMPCPUSec
  • AvgAmpCPUSec
  • HotAmp1CPU
  • HotAmp2CPU
  • HotAmp3CPU
  • LowAmp1CPU
  • LowAmp2CPU
  • LowAmp3CPU
  • PECPUSec
  • RequestAmpCPU

The MonSesCPUNormalization field, controls whether normalized or non-normalized statistical CPU data is reported by the functions MonitorSession and MonitorMySessions, and by the MONITOR SESSION request.

See MonitorMySessions or MONITOR SESSION for a list of these CPU fields.

A Trusted Session enables a middle-tier application to switch the user on an already active database session to another user (proxy user). When the user is switched, all subsequent requests use the privileges and session attributes of the proxy user. MonitorSession returns the logon user name and ID in the UserName and UserId fields and the proxy user name and ID in the ProxyUserName and ProxyUserId fields.

The MonitorSession function provides similar functionality to the PMPC MONITOR SESSION request. For information about this interface, see MONITOR SESSION.
