SELECT owner, table_name
FROM dba_tables
This is assuming that you have access to the DBA_TABLES
data dictionary view. If you do not have those privileges but need them, you can request that the DBA explicitly grants you privileges on that table, or, that the DBA grants you the SELECT ANY DICTIONARY
privilege or the SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE
role (either of which would allow you to query any data dictionary table). Of course, you may want to exclude certain schemas like SYS
and SYSTEM
which have large numbers of Oracle tables that you probably don't care about.
Alternatively, if you do not have access to DBA_TABLES
, you can see all the tables that your account has access to through the ALL_TABLES
view:
SELECT owner, table_name
FROM all_tables
Although, that may be a subset of the tables available in the database (ALL_TABLES
shows you the information for all the tables that your user has been granted access to).
If you are only concerned with the tables that you own, not those that you have access to, you could use USER_TABLES
:
SELECT table_name
FROM user_tables
Since USER_TABLES
only has information about the tables that you own, it does not have an OWNER
column – the owner, by definition, is you.
Oracle also has a number of legacy data dictionary views-- TAB
, DICT
, TABS
, and CAT
for example-- that could be used. In general, I would not suggest using these legacy views unless you absolutely need to backport your scripts to Oracle 6. Oracle has not changed these views in a long time so they often have problems with newer types of objects. For example, the TAB
and CAT
views both show information about tables that are in the user's recycle bin while the [DBA|ALL|USER]_TABLES
views all filter those out. CAT
also shows information about materialized view logs with a TABLE_TYPE
of "TABLE" which is unlikely to be what you really want. DICT
combines tables and synonyms and doesn't tell you who owns the object.

KGL=Kernel General Library cache manager, as the name says it deals with library objects such cursors, cached stored object definitions (PL/SQL stored procs, table definitions etc).
KGL simulator is used for estimating the benefit of caching if the cache was larger than currently. The general idea is that when flushing out a library cache object, it's hash value (and few other bits of info) are still kept in the KGL simulator hash table. This stores a history of objects which were in memory but flushed out.
When loading a library cache object (which means that no existing such object is in library cache), Oracle goes and checks the KGL simulator hash table to see whether an object with matching hash value is in there. If a matching object is found, that means that the required object had been in cache in past, but flushed out due space pressure.
Using that information of how many library cache object (re)loads could have been been avoided if cache had been bigger (thanks to KGL simulator history) and knowing how much time the object reloads took, Oracle can predict how much response time would have been saved instancewide if shared pool was bigger. This is seen from v$library_cache_advice.
Anyway, this error was probably raised by a victim session due running out of shared pool space. In other words, someone else may have used up all the memory (or all the large enough chunks) and this allocation for KGL sim failed because of that.
v$sgastat would be the first point for troubleshooting ORA-4031 errors, you need to identify how much free memory you have in shared pool (and who's using up most of the memory).
