Sql Tuning Advisor是10g以后出现的一个十分有用的调优工具，大多数情况下我们可以通过dbconsole或者Grid Control的web界面调用SQL Advisor；但如果系统中没有配置dbconsole或者Grid Control的话，我们则需要通过手动调用DBMS_SQLTUNE PL/SQL程序包来使用该特性。这里我列出一个针对单个SQL语句Autotune的脚本，具体脚本:
beginDBMS_SQLTUNE.drop_tuning_task('&task_name');
end;
/DECLAREmy_task_name VARCHAR2(30);my_sqltext CLOB;my_sqlid varchar2(30);
BEGINmy_sqlid := '&sqlid';my_task_name := dbms_sqltune.create_tuning_task(sql_id => my_sqlid,scope => 'COMPREHENSIVE',time_limit => 300,task_name => '&task_name',description => 'comment');
END;
/BEGINdbms_sqltune.execute_tuning_task(task_name => '&task_name');
END;
/SELECT status FROM USER_ADVISOR_TASKS WHERE task_name = '&task_name';SET LONG 10000
SET LONGCHUNKSIZE 10000
SET LINESIZE 100
set pages 60SELECT DBMS_SQLTUNE.REPORT_TUNING_TASK('&task_name') FROM DUAL;
具体使用示例:

SQL> beginDBMS_SQLTUNE.drop_tuning_task('&task_name');
end;
/
Enter value for task_name: newtask
old   3:   DBMS_SQLTUNE.drop_tuning_task('&task_name');
new   3:   DBMS_SQLTUNE.drop_tuning_task('newtask');
begin
