    -Occasionally you might want to put a database in a state that allows only DBA transactions, queries, fetches, or PL/SQL statements.

    -Such a state is referred to as a quiesced state, in the sense that no ongoing non-DBA transactions, queries, fetches, or PL/SQL statements are running in the system.

    - Viewing the Quiesce State of an Instance you can query the ACTIVE_STATE column of the V$INSTANCE view to see the current state of an instance, the column values has one of these values

    NORMAL- It is the normal unquiesced state.

    QUIESCING - It is being quiesced, but some non-DBA sessions are still active.

    QUIESCED - It is Quiesced; no non-DBA sessions are active or allowed.
