Query to Check Table Lock in Oracle Database

Query 1: To find sid, serial# and process of locked object.

select a.sid||'|'|| a.serial#||'|'|| a.process

from v$session a, v$locked_object b, dba_objects c
where b.object_id = c.object_id
and a.sid = b.session_id
and OBJECT_NAME=upper('&TABLE_NAME');

Note: if you don't have dba_objects privilege replace it by user_objects.

In RAC use GV$locked_object
Query 2: To find process holding the lock by passing table name.

select distinct a.process

from gv$session a, gv$locked_object b, dba_objects c
where b.object_id = c.object_id
and a.sid = b.session_id ;
and OBJECT_NAME=upper('USERSESSIONDATA');

Note: if you don't have dba_objects privilege replace it by user_objects.

In RAC use GV$locked_object
QUERY 3: To find blocking locks into the database.

select
(select username from v$session where sid=a.sid) blocker,
a.sid,
' is blocking ',
(select username from v$session where sid=b.sid) blockee,
b.sid
from
v$lock a,
v$lock b
where
a.block = 1
and
b.request > 0
and
a.id1 = b.id1
and
a.id2 = b.id2;
QUERY 4: To find blocking session and type of lock.

select l1.inst_id,l1.sid, ' IS BLOCKING ',

l2.sid,l1.type,l2.type,l1.lmode,l2.lmode,l2.inst_id
from gv$lock l1, gv$lock l2
where l1.block =1 and l2.request > 0
and l1.id1=l2.id1
and l1.id2=l2.id2;
QUERY 5: To get the detailed information in RAC.

SELECT 'Instance '||s1.INST_ID||' '|| s1.username || '@' || s1.machine

|| ' ( SID=' || s1.sid || ','|| s1.serial#||s1.status|| ' ) is blocking '
|| s2.username || '@' || s2.machine || ' ( SID=' || s2.sid || ' ) ' ||s2.sql_id
FROM gv$lock l1, gv$session s1, gv$lock l2, gv$session s2
WHERE s1.sid=l1.sid AND
s1.inst_id=l1.inst_id AND
s2.sid=l2.sid AND
s2.inst_id=l2.inst_id AND
 l1.BLOCK=1 AND
l2.request > 0 AND
l1.id1 = l2.id1 AND
l2.id2 = l2.id2 ;

FIMASTER.USERSESSIONDATA

How to kill blocking sessions.

To find sql_id from sid
SQL> select sql_id from v$session where sid=&sid;

To find sql_full text from sql_id

SQL > select sql_fulltext from gv$sql where sql_id ="&SLQ_ID";

To kill sessions:
SQL> alter session kill session 'sid,serial#' immediate;

select c.owner,c.object_name,c.object_type,b.sid,b.serial#,
b.status,b.osuser,b.machine from v$locked_object a, v$session b,dba_objects c
where b.sid=a.session_id and a.OBJECT_ID=c.OBJECT_ID ;
