 » Index

This screen provides index and referential constraint I/O information.

[indexes]

To invoke the SampleIO Indexes screen, use the i command from the SampleIO subsystem or the /sa i command from other subsystems. For more information about using the SAMPLEIO subsystem, see the chapter "Troubleshooting with SQLMON."

Field Definitions

REFRESH

The screen refresh rate, in seconds.

DBEFILESET

The name of the DBEFileSet. The indexes and referential constraints contained within a DBEFileSet are listed below the DBEFileSet name.

SORTSAMPLEIO

An indicator of how the indexes and referential constraints are sorted. The indexes and referential constraints are sorted in descending order by the value in the column indicated by the asterisk. In the above example, the indexes and referential constraints are sorted by TOTALIO values. For more information, see the description of the SET SORTSAMPLEIO command.

OWNER.TABLE

The name of the table upon which the index or referential constraint is defined.

INDEX, CONSTRAINT

The name of the index or referential constraint.

SWAPIN

An approximation of read I/O for the index or referential constraint.

SWAPOUT

An approximation of write I/O for the index or referential constraint.

TOTALIO

The sum of the SWAPIN and SWAPOUT values. This value approximates total I/O.

Display Conventions

When the DISPLAYSAMPLES variable is set to ON, a row displayed in inverse video indicates that index I/O has occurred during the most recent refresh interval.
