Buffer Statistics

This section describes how to obtain and use the buffer statistics available for the active Adabas Fastpath buffer.


Buffer Statistics and Interaction Menu

Active Fastpath buffers can be monitored and controlled by selecting option code 2 on the Online Services main menu or by entering the command 2 on the command line.

The Buffer Statistics and Interaction menu is then displayed.

General Information

The first section of this screen provides general information for the buffer. The following information is provided:

Field Description
Buffer Type The buffer type (global, member).
Name The buffer name.
SVC The Adabas SVC used for this buffer.
DB The Adabas database for which this buffer is used to provide optimization.
Connected to The job to which the buffer is connected.
Buffer Status Indicates whether or not the buffer is currently active.
Started The time at which the buffer was last started.
Ave Memory Val ... Session Number These fields are reserved for Software AG use.

The next section provides the buffer statistics. The following information is provided:

Field Description
Access Type

Attempts: the percentage of optimization attempts (opimization attempts divided by total number of commands).
Successes: the percentage of successful optimization attempts (successful optimization attempts divided by number of optimization attempts).

Read-Ahead

Attempts: the number of read-ahead optimization attempts, and the attempt percentage (read-ahead optimization attempts divided by total number of commands).
Successes: the number of successful read-ahead optimization attempts, and the percentage of successful attempts (successful read-ahead optimization attempts divided by read-ahead optimization attempts).

Direct

Attempts: the number of direct access optimization attempts, and the attempt percentage (direct access optimization attempts divided by total number of commands).
Successes: the number of successful direct access optimization attempts, and the percentage of successful attempts (successful direct access optimization attempts divided by direct access optimization attempts).

RCs Attempts is always equal to successes. This is the number of optimized RCs that immediately followed a direct access command (without any intervening "next" commands).
Excluded

Attempts: the number of commands which were excluded from optimization, and percentage (number of excluded commands divided by total number of commands).

Note:
For more information on excluded attempts, use PF6.

Total

Attempts: the total number of commands encountered by Adabas Fastpath.
Successes: the total number of successful optimization attempts, and the percentage of successful attempts (successful optimization attempts divided by total number of commands).

Pressing PF6 from any of the buffer information screens displays the Excluded Command Analysis screen:

Database Summary

The following information is provided on this screen:

Field Description
Buffer Session The buffer session number.
Started The time at which the buffer was last started.
Size The memory allocation for the buffer.
C Option code. The following options are available:

d: display detailed database information
f: display file summary information
s: perform database service (stop/start optimization).

DB The Adabas database.
SVC The Adabas SVC.
Attempts The total number of optimization attempts.
Optimized The total number of successful optimization attempts.
Set Usage The number of direct access sets used.
Status The status of the database.

Database Services

If the option code s is selected for a database, the following window is displayed:

 Command ==>
            PF1 Help   PF3 Exit
Database Services

Using this window, you can stop/restart optimization for a database.

If database optimization is stopped, no further optimization occurs for its files and sets. In addition, all direct access data is removed from the Adabas Fastpath buffer for sets belonging to files within this database.

Note:
A similar service is available at the file and file set levels.

Detailed Database Information

If the option code d is selected for a database, the Database Details screen is displayed.

This screen contains a performance analysis for the selected database.

Database Details

The first section of this screen (Optimization Summary) provides optimization statistics for this database. This information is provided in the same format as that provided at the buffer level (see section Buffer Information). The statistics shown at the database level are exclusively for commands that are eligible for optimization. The excluded count therefore differs from the buffer level count.

The second section of this screen provides the following information:

Field Description
Updates The number of update commands processed for this database.
Over-reads

The number of read-aheads performed but not needed by the application, and the percentage of non-needed over-reads to the number of successful read-aheads. Non-needed over-reads represent overhead that may reduce the effectiveness of read-ahead optimization. In general, over-reads should not exceed 25% of read-ahead successes.

Status ... Nuc ID These fields are reserved for Software AG use.

Pressing PF6 on the Database Details screen displays the excluded command analysis for the selected database:

Database Excluded Count Analysis

The information is provided in the same format as that provided at the buffer level (see section Buffer Information), with the exception that the first five excluded reasons are not shown because commands excluded for those reasons do not appear at the database level.

Note:
A similar analysis can be displayed from the file detail screen.

Summary File Information

If the option code f is selected for a database, the File Summary screen is displayed.

Note:
You can also access this screen by entering 2.2.1 on the command line.

This screen displays a summary of activity for each file in the selected database.

File Details

The first section of this screen (Optimization Summary) provides optimization statistics for the file. This information is provided in the same format as that provided at the database level.

The second section of this screen provides the following information:

Field Description
Updates The number of update commands processed for this file.
Over-reads

The number of read-aheads performed but not needed by the application, and the percentage of non-needed over-reads to the number of successful read-aheads. Non-needed over-reads represent overhead that may reduce the effectiveness of read-ahead optimization. In general, over-reads should not exceed 25% of read-ahead successes.

Set Limit ... Set Concurrency The current settings for various file optimization parameters. For a description of each parameter, see the section Adabas Fastpath Parameters.
Status ... Addr These fields are reserved for Software AG use.

Pressing PF9 invokes the second File Details screen. This screen shows whether or not optimization has been defined for the Adabas command/descriptor pairs which are used to access the file.

File Set Summary List

The following information is provided:

Field Description
C Option code. The following options are available:

d: display detailed set information
f: display full set list

CC De The Adabas command/descriptor pair for which information is provided.
Sets The number of sets that have been added together to make the summary.
Number of Items The number of items (records) in use at the present time, the peak number of items used, and the number of times items in the set were used for optimization.
Memory The memory in use to hold the data in the sets (in k) and the peak memory usage for all sets.
Efficiency Ratings

Set Efficiency. The nominal CPU effort needed to maintain the set(s) (for example, adding, removing, overwriting) versus the CPU effort saved by optimization. The rating is on a scale of 0 to 9, where 0 means that the set(s) are estimated to use more CPU in maintenance than it gains by optimization.

Memory. The number of commands optimized for the set(s) divided by the memory used. The higher the rating (maximum 9999), the better the value of the set(s) in terms of memory usage.

Growth Rating. A ratio of the memory value rating to the average memory value for the whole Adabas Fastpath buffer. A rating of 1.00 is average. Adabas Fastpath uses this rating to increase set expansion for sets above average (> 1.00) and to restrict expansion for below average sets.

File Set List

If the option code f is selected for a command/descriptor pair on the File Set Summary screen, the Set Summary screen will be displayed.

This screen contains an activity summary for each direct access set used by the selected command/descriptor pair.
