The Windows NT Performance Monitor displays the process (ORACLE80) and threads
(Threads 0,1 represent the Oracle service threads).
If ARCHIVELOG mode is enabled, threads
2,3,4,5,6,7,8
represent the background threads [PMON, DBWR, ARCH, LGWR, CKPT, SMON and RECO
respectively].
If ARCHIVELOG mode is not enabled, threads 2,3,4,5,6,7 represent the
background threads [PMON, DBWR, LGWR, CKPT, SMON and RECO respectively] as shown
in Figure 1.
The process ID for each thread is listed in the “Last”, “Average”, “Min” and “Max”

Figure 1:
Performance Monitor – Oracle8 Server process and threads
The Oracle8 Server process is represented under Windows NT as a service (OracleServiceSSSS
[SSSS= System ID]) associated with the executable ORACLE80.EXE.
The Oracle Service
consists of two threads, 0 and 1.
Thread 0 is the Oracle process main thread acting as a service
dispatcher and creating thread 1 to handle the service.
Each Oracle instance is associated with a specific Windows NT service and consists of a single
process and multiple threads.
Use the Windows NT Control Panel/Services to display the Oracle
Services.
OracleServiceTPCD represents the Oracle Instance TPCD as shown in Figure 2.
