Work Pool Usage.
This document covers the following topics:
To review the general system status of an
Adabas database:
Select an Adabas database in tree-view and expand it.
Select System Status in tree-view.
The system status information for the database is displayed in tables on the System Status panel in detail-view.
Read about Database Monitoring and Tuning in the Adabas DBA Tasks documentation for detailed information about system status statistics.
The system status information for a database is provided in sections, as described in this section:
The physical I/O table is the first section on the System Status panel. It displays the number of physical reads and writes executed during the session to the Associator (ASSO), Data Storage (DATA), and Work (WORK) data sets. In addition, it displays the number of physical writes during the session to the data protection log (PLOG).
The general statistics table is the second section from the top of the System Status panel. It lists the following information about the database:
| Property | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Logical Reads | The number of logical reads issued for the buffer pool. |
| Buffer Efficiency | The number of logical reads divided by the number of ASSO and DATA reads. The higher the value for buffer efficiency, the more efficient is buffer pool usage. If the value is less than 10, you may want to increase the size of the Adabas buffer pool (see the ADARUN LBP parameter). |
| Format Translations | Adabas read and update commands require a format buffer that specifies the fields to be read or updated. Adabas interprets the format buffer and translates it into an internal form and stores it in an internal format buffer pool. The internal format buffer is identified by a combination of user ID/ command ID. Format buffer translation is CPU-intensive. |
| Format Overwrites | When the internal format buffer pool becomes full, an existing entry must be overwritten to accommodate a new entry. If you have an excessive number of format overwrites, you may need to increase the size of the internal format buffer pool (see the ADARUN LFP parameter). |
| Throwbacks | The number of times a command could not be executed because the Adabas nucleus was waiting for an available ISN or Adabas work pool space. In these cases, the command is thrown back into the command queue for processing at a later point in time. |
| Thread Switches | The number of times in this session that a thread was automatically switched by Adabas during the processing of a single command. A thread switch occurs if I/O activity suspends command processing in an active thread. Ideally, each command should be processed to completion without a thread switch. The count of thread switches is thus an indication of the balance between the size of the I/O buffer and the number of threads allocated. |
| Number of Calls | Total number of calls issued to Adabas during the session. |
| Internal Autorestarts | The number of autorestarts performed during the session. |
| PLOG Switches | Applies only when dual protection logging is in effect; when one dataset is full, Adabas switches automatically to a second dataset and continues writing protection log records. In the meantime, data in the first dataset is copied off using ADARES PLCOPY to a sequential file, either manually or under the control of user exit 2, so that the dataset can be safely overwritten when the second dataset becomes full and Adabas switches automatically back to the first dataset. The system is most efficient when sufficient time is available to copy a full protection log off to the sequential dataset before the other protection log dataset becomes full. Protection logs are sized using the DUALPLD parameter to specify the device and thus the block size and the DUALPLS parameter to specify the number of blocks allowed in a log. |
| Buffer Flushes | The number of times the buffer pool has been flushed to Data Storage during the session. The buffer pool contains the most frequently used ASSO and DATA blocks and its purpose is to minimize physical I/O activity. The buffer pool should be as large as possible without causing undue paging by the operating system. |
The pool and queue statistics section of the table is a high-water mark display. It shows the usage statistics and graphs the highest percentage used of selected pools and queues in the current session, as well as the date and time when the high point was reached. Values are displayed for the:
user, command, and hold queues
ISN list and sequential command tables
format, redo, security, user file list, DTP transaction ID, unique descriptor, and work pools
attached buffers.
In addition, the units and defined settings of the ADARUN parameters associated with establishing the sizes of these queues and pools is also listed in the table.
The high-water values are a good starting point when looking for a problem with limited buffer, pool, or queue space, or if you are looking for unused storage resources.
The system status information displayed in detail-view lists the following information on an open systems database:
queue information
buffer pool statistics

| Number of Throwbacks | The number of commands in the command queue for processing at a later point in time. |
The parallel participant table (PPT) located in a database's Associator tracks all active Adabas nuclei in the cluster and displays additional information about a nucleus.
The information about each Adabas nucleus maintained in the PPT is used when ADARES PLCOPY is copying and merging all active protection logs in the cluster. It is also used during nucleus initialization to ensure that the dataset information required for autorestart and PLOG merge is available:
If the previously used Work dataset and PLOG datasets are already in use by another nucleus, the nucleus will not start.
If a different Work dataset is provided and the previously used Work dataset contains autorestart information, the nucleus will start but a warning will be printed.
If different PLOGs or no PLOGs are provided and the previous session had PLOGs still to be copied, the nucleus will not start until those PLOGs have been copied/merged if PLOGRQ=FORCE is specified. If PLOGRQ=FORCE is not specified, the nucleus will start but a warning will be printed.
To review the PPT of a mainframe database:
