Robust book with a good ideas
Statspack is a Godsend tool from Oracle.

This and the previous edition of the book provide DBAs with an excellent introduction into understanding statspack internal tables and great ideas on how to integrate critically important OS statistics into the statspack data gathering process.

Using statspack daily, I found this book and Performance Explorer-i / Statspack program (found it on internet - made by dbainfopower) to be invaluable tools that extend statspack capabilities and help to resolve complex performance problems.

WOW!!!!
This book shows you how to expand on Oracle's STATSPACK information with a variety of scripts. Although it is geared toward a UNIX environment, it has a lot of useful information for tuning databases that are not on UNIX.
