Measures reported by DbSessionsTest
To work with a database instance, to make data queries or to manage the database instance, you have to open a database session. This can happen as follows:
- The user logs on to the database instance with a user name and password, thus opening a database session. Later, the database session is terminated explicitly by the user or closed implicitly when the timeout value is exceeded.
- A database tool implicitly opens a database session and then closes it again later.
The DbSessionsTest reveals the level of activity on the MaxDB server by reporting the number of active database sessions.
