When we are facing performance issues with frmweb sessions, below CONTEXT_FILE variables must be considered – FORMS_CATCHTERM – This variable decides enabling/disabling of forms abnormal termination handler(FATH). FATH basically writes diagnostic information into dumpfile or form server log. Default value is '1'. FORMS_RECORD_GROUP_MAX – This is a customized environment variable when using in servlet mode while we can directly set this in socket.env with socket mode. FORMS_MMAP – This is mainly monitored in socket mode. When set to 0 will not put .fmx files in shared memory mapped files resulting in more memory consumption. Recommended value for this variable is 1. Scenario - Common frmweb process issues are with high CPU and memory consumption. This results in slowing down application server where forms services are running. Whenever an end user is working LOVs fetching huge number of records, these records are loaded in memory and result in ...

WHAT ARE .RTI FILES? For the starters, we referred - What Are .RTI And .FLI Files? (Doc ID 470850.1) and summarized as follows - Format-     em_<PID>.rti These files are generated by the forms runtime processes. Used by Oracle Application Manager "OAM" and the Enterprise Manager "EM" for Forms Monitoring services The rti files should automatically be cleaned up/removed when the user logs out of the Oracle Applications in a normal logout fashion. However, if a user does not logout, and just uses the 'X' button to close the form or kills the browser session before logging out of forms, then the rti file may not get cleared. If the files are not automatically being removed, then you can write a Unix shell script to remove them periodically. We opened a forms session from ebs r12.1.3 to simulate - 1. Normal Logout Fashion for forms 2. Forms Abnormal termination We used below environment for our test-case - Normal ...
