This screen shows statistics on the command type and quantity of key-based accesses against the file (for example, S1, L3, and L9 commands). The statistics are displayed in descending order by command code (CC) and Adabas two-character field name (Desc).

In the example, there are 2836 accesses to file 2 using an L3 command with the Adabas field AA as the primary sequence field. Such a file, where the predominant access is by a single key, may benefit from being partitioned using the Adabas field AA as the Adabas Vista partitioning field.
