  8. Historical Database Enhancements • Originally Key-sequenced only • Worked great for many year but load could be noticeable • Supported partitioning to spread the load • Excessive block-splits at high volume with large records remained a problem • Can now define database files as Relative • Uses alternate key search path • Much more efficient at high volume even with large records • DBTCP (TCP/IP) defaults to Relative • All other DB files remain Key-sequenced by default SET PARTITION DEFAULT | <entity> TYPE R TOI Template—

  9. Historical Database Enhancements • Originally only Refresh ON • Causes file label to be re-written at each EOF change • Probably not necessary for all environments • Can now turn Refresh OFF • File label not re-written at EOF change • Less disk I/O activity • Refresh ON remains the default SET PARTITION DEFAULT | <entity> REFRESH OFF TOI Template—

  12. TCP/IP and TELSERV Support • Use SET TCP ON to turn on TCP/IP and TelServ • PORT, SERVICE and WINDOW monitoring is OFF by default • Use SET TCP PARAM “<name>” to enable • SET TCP PARAM “PORT, SERVICE, WINDOW” enables all 3 • BE WARNED ! • TCP can produce a lot of historical data • Recommend a minimum rate of 5 minutes • Use SET TCP PARAM “RATE 5” if ASAP rate is less than 5 minutes • DBTCP defaults to largest possible size Format 1 file • Use SET PARTITION FORMAT2 ON to create as Format 2 • Use SET PARTITION TCP ALL PRIEXT | SECEXT <x> to increase file size TOI Template—

  13. TCP/IP and TELSERV Support • ASAPTCP gets information about TCP/IP and TELSERV using an SCP process • You Must Specify an SCP Process for ASAPTCP to Use • SET TCP PARAM “SCPNAME <name>” • Sometimes $ZNET can be used without problems • Other times a separate SCP process should be started prior to starting ASAPTCP • SCP/NAME $ZNEA, NOWAIT, CPU 1/0; AUTOSTOP -1 • ASAPTCP uses the SPI protocol to communicate with its SCP process • SCP process sends request to TCP/IP and TELSERV TOI Template—

  14. TCP/IP and TELSERV Support • TCP Automatically Discovers and Monitors ALL Objects • All TCPIP and TCP6MAN processes • All TELSERV processes • All stats for all monitored processes • All Routes and Subnets • All Ports, Services and Windows if enabled for monitoring • Can use MONITOR command to only monitor specific processes, Ports, Routes, Subnets, Services or Windows • If a process is monitored, then all stats (entities) subordinate to the process are produced • If a process is not monitored (and others are) then Port, Route, Subnet, Service or Window stats for that process are also not monitored TOI Template—

  15. TCP/IP and TELSERV Support • Monitor Route, Subnet, Service and Windows for Processes that aren’t monitored by specifically monitoring them with MONITOR commands • Monitoring Examples • Specify nothing, all things will be monitored • MONITOR TCPPROCESS $ZPTM0 • Only monitor this TCP/IP process • Only Routes and Subnets subordinate to this process will be monitored • MONITOR ROUTE $ZPTM1.RT1 • Monitors this specific route regardless of whether or not process $ZPTM1 is monitored • Note this only monitors this ROUTE unless others are specified • MONITOR PORT 23 TOI Template—

  16. TCP/IP and TELSERV Support • You Cannot Separately Monitor • Individual TCP entities (except Process, Port, Subnet and Route). They are monitored when the Process is. • Ports that belong to processes that are not monitored • Automatically Monitored Objects Refresh Differently • Configured objects (TCP and TELSERV Processes, TCP Subnets and TELSERV Services) only reconfigure once per hour • In other words once each hour ASAP checks to see if there has been a change in configuration • Dynamic objects (TCP Ports and Routes, TELSERV Windows) reconfigure at each interval • Can always force a reconfiguration using the COMMIT command TOI Template—

  17. TCP/IP and TELSERV Support • You Can Set Goals on Almost Anything • Goals can be set on any TCP entity or sub-entity on almost any attribute • Use the SHOW <entity> command to display the attributes within an entity • Those with an asterisk can have goals set against them • So Many Attributes, So Little Screen Real Estate • There are literally thousands of attributes reported for TCP/IP and TELSERV. • ASAP Client cannot possibly display all the attributes available at the same time • We have defined an initial set of attributes to be displayed • Use the Client Properties Sheet to customize your display TOI Template—

  18. TCP/IP and TELSERV Support • You Can Use Abbreviations! • TCPPROCESS can be abbreviated TCP • TELSERVPROCESS can be abbreviated TELSERV • All other TCP<name> can be abbreviated <name> • All other TELSERV<name> can be abbreviated <name> • MONITOR TCP $ZPTM1 • MONITOR ROUTE $ZPTM1.RT1 • MONITOR TELSERV $ZTN01 • MONITOR WINDOW $ZTN01.PTY03A • You can specify “#” or not • MONITOR ROUTE $ZTCP1.#RT1 (or just RT1) • You can specify “$ZZTCP.#” or not • MONITOR TCP $ZZTCP.#ZPTM0 (or just $ZPTM0) TOI Template—

  19. TCP/IP and TELSERV Support • Use the TCP Command to Display TCP/TELSERV Data • TCP (displays all TCP/TELSERV objects without details) • TCP <entity-name> (displays a specific entity) • Can use Entity Abbreviations • TCP ARP, DETAIL (display detailed ARP data for all TCPs) • TCP ARP $ZPTM1, DETAIL (display ARP data for $ZPTM1) • TELSERV entities have additional abbreviations • TELSERVPROCESS TP • TELSERVSERVICE TS • TELSERVWINDOW TW • TCP TW, DETAIL (display Window data for all Windows) • SEE HELP TCP for more options TOI Template—
