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.
