Measurement
Unit |
Interpretation |
| Threads_creating_conns |
The
current number of threads creating connections
|
Number |
|
| Avg_conn_create_time |
Average
time spent creating connections during the last measurement period |
Secs
|
An increase in this metric could indicate a bottleneck in the
database/database connection points.
|
| Max_conn_create_time
|
The
high water mark indicating the maximum time spent creating connections
since the server was started |
Secs |
A
high value for this measure is indicative of a bottleneck during
database access. |
| Conns_open |
The
number of connections that have been opened per second in the last
measurement period |
Conns/Sec
|
A
very high value for this measure indicates a heavy load on database
access.
|
| Conns_close |
The
number of connections that have been closed per second |
Conns/Sec
|
The
value of this measure must be equal to the Conns_open. If this value
is consistently less than Conns_open, then it indicates a potential
problem - that connections are hanging on to the database server. |
