Measures reported by Db2DPFActivityTest

This test measures the level of SQL activity on the logical partitions, and reveals how well the partitions process SQL queries.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Dynamic_sql_rate Indicates the rate of dynamic SQL statements that were attempted on this logical partition. Statements/Sec This is an indication of throughput of the system during the monitoring period. A high value of dynamic SQLs and low value of failed SQLs indicate good throughput.
Select_sql_rate Indicates the rate at which SELECT SQL statements were executed on this logical partition during the last measurement period. Statements/Sec This measure can be used to determine the level of database activity.
UID_sql_rate Indicates the rate at which update/delete/insert statements were issued on this logical partition during the last measurement period. Statements/Sec This measure can be used to determine the level of database activity.
Failed_sql_rate Indicates the rate at which SQL statements to this logical partition failed. Statements/Sec A relatively high value indicates a problem. Failed SQL statements waste system resources. Hence, the value of this measure should be very low.
Pct_failed_sql Indicates the percentage of SQL statements attempted on this partion that failed during the interval. This value includes all SQL statements that received a negative SQLCODE. Percent A relatively high value indicates a problem. Failed SQL statements waste system resources. Hence, the value of this measure should be very low.
Pct_ddl_sql The percentage of SELECT SQL statements that were executed during the last measurement periodDenotes the percentage of SQL statements attempted on this logical partition that were DDL (Data Definition Language) during the last measurement period. Percent This value should normally be low.
Pct_uid_sql Indicates the percentage of update/insert/delete statements executed on this logical partition during the last measurement period. Percent This measure can be used to determine the level of database activity.
