What Is the Client Status Monitor?

The Client Status Monitor is a new utility in SQL*Net release 2.3 that provides client information which can be useful for troubleshooting. The tool can be used by decentralized users to provide useful information to the system administrator or to Oracle Customer Support, thus enabling faster problem-solving assistance.

The Client Status Monitor also provides a SQLNET.ORA Editor that enables users to edit some of the optional parameters in the SQLNET.ORA file on the client. The editing tool is useful because it enables you to change the configuration parameters of a single client, without having to use Oracle Network Manager or to distribute new files from a central location.
