Several Natural programs are supplied in source form that demonstrate the effect of Adabas Fastpath optimization. These programs refer to the sample EMPLOYEES file distributed with Adabas.
Using Adabas Fastpath Online Services (SYSAFP), define a global buffer. For more information, see Parameter Maintenance.
Using Adabas Fastpath Online Services, define EMPLOYEES as a file to be optimized, and for all command types, set the default for optimization to ON. For more information, see Parameter Maintenance.
Using Adabas Fastpath Online Services, choose the TP system (or batch job) where you wish to implement Adabas Fastpath optimization. Define this job by its name and type to Adabas Fastpath to use the previously defined buffer. See Parameter Maintenance.
Enable the database containing the EMPLOYEES file. See step 4 of the Adabas Fastpath installation procedure for the operating system you are using. For example, step 4 for z/OS.
Start the asynchronous buffer manager. See step 5 of the Adabas Fastpath installation procedure for the operating system you are using. For example, step 5 for z/OS.
Enable the client job chosen for Adabas Fastpath optimization. See step 3 of the Adabas Fastpath installation procedure for the operating system you are using. For example, step 3 for z/OS.
From the Adabas Fastpath administration menu go to the command line and LIST/STOW the Natural programs beginning with EEX* to compile them with your correct EMPLOYEES DDM.
The verification program relies on a certain amount of records being present in the EMPLOYEES file. Ensure the file is not empty.
Type VERIFY at the SYSAFP command line to
execute the verification procedure. Use VERIFY along with the SYSAFP command
2.1 to show the optimization being achieved.
Initially, only a small percentage of commands are actually optimized: this
grows with the repeated use of VERIFY as Adabas
Fastpath builds the knowledge base based on previous requests.
