ASF Groups and Fields

This document covers the following topics:

Units of Measurement

The Adabas statistical data can be displayed in various units of measurement. The units available are listed in the following table. In the section ASF Fields it is listed which unit can be used for which field. The "API" column indicates the abbreviation to be used by the Application Programming Interface (API).

Unit API Meaning Description
Bl BL Blocks The size value is displayed in units of blocks.
Cy CY Cylinders The size value is displayed in units of cylinders.
MB MB Megabytes The size value is displayed in units of megabytes (millions of bytes).
By BY Bytes The size value is displayed in units of bytes.
Se SE Seconds The time value is displayed in total number of seconds.
Hr HR Hours The time value is displayed as "hours:minutes:seconds".
Da DA Days The time value is displayed as "days:hours:minutes".
% PC Percent The value is displayed as percentage.
Nom blank Nominal value The actual value of the field. This is also the default if no column is selected.
1/min PM Per Minute The average number of occurrences per minute.
1/call PM Per Call The average time spent per call. This unit is only available for the Call Duration fields.
MS MS msec The time value is displayed in total number of milliseconds. This unit is only available for the Call Duration fields. It is used when the "Nom" or no unit has been selected.

ASF Groups

The statistical data which the ASF Store Program stores, are the values of the ASF data fields. The ASF data fields are subdivided into several groups: most of them are related to some aspect of the database, one group contains technical ASF fields (such as the store date), and one group is reserved for the user fields. The ASF groups are displayed when you use the active help function at the evaluation profile administration. In the evaluation itself only the field names are displayed.

Note 1:

The percentage value of the extents gives a more sophisticated approach to monitor the space usage because it combines the number of allocated extents with the filling level. Each full extent (of average size) counts as 100%. A value of 250% means: three extents allocated, two of them full and one half-full. In a Critical Report such a percentage value can be used to submit a query like "4th extent nearly full".

Example:

4 EXTENTS, 800 blocks defined, 760 blocks used. 

Percent  (USED)    = 100 * 760 / 800     =  95%
Percent  (EXTENTS) = 100 * 4 * 760 / 800 = 380%

The value of 380% can be interpreted as 3 (average) extents full and the forth extent filled up to 80%.

Note 2:

The number of file updates is counted since the file has been loaded or refreshed. The percentage calculation uses the number of commands, and the per-minute uses the nucleus duration time. Both values are counted since the nucleus has been started and reflect another time interval than the number of updates. Therefore for the number of updates, the units "%" and "1/min" are in general meaningless. Nevertheless, these units can be used when Delta Values (User Function 1) are used. In this case all values reflect the time interval of the delta value, e.g. one day for a daily store.

Note 3:

The field "TOP ISN (3 BYTE)" can be used to search all files which use an ISNSIZE 3 and the Top ISN is closed to the highest 3-byte value.

Example:

A Critical Report lists all files which you should be upgraded to ISNSIZE 4: 

TOP ISN (3 BYTE)  GE  16000000
