This section describes the tools provided with Adabas Vista.
The Adabas Vista file analysis tool AVILOOK provides statistics on the type and quantity of key-based accesses against an Adabas file. These statistics can be used to identify the Adabas files that may benefit from the Adabas Vista partitioning option.
The following screen is an example of the output provided by AVILOOK.

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.
