Administering
In addition to administering the database server, you can tune performance, replicate data, and archive data.
System administration
These topics contain concepts, procedures, and reference information for database and database server administrators to use for managing and tuning
HCL OneDB™
database servers.
Performance Guide
The
HCL OneDB™ Performance Guide
describes how to configure and operate your
HCL OneDB™
database server to improve overall system throughput and to improve the performance of SQL queries.

Administrator's Guide
The
HCL OneDB™ Administrator's Guide
provides the information required to administer
HCL OneDB™
.
Administrator's Reference
The
HCL OneDB™ Administrator's Reference
includes comprehensive descriptions of
HCL OneDB™
configuration parameters, the system-monitoring interface (SMI) tables in the sysmaster database, the syntax of database server utilities such as
onmode
and
onstat
, logical-log records, disk structures, event alarms, and unnumbered error messages.
DB-Access User's Guide
This publication describes how to use the
DB-Access
utility to access, modify, and retrieve information from
HCL® OneDB®
database servers.
Performance Guide
The
HCL OneDB™ Performance Guide
describes how to configure and operate your
HCL OneDB™
database server to improve overall system throughput and to improve the performance of SQL queries.
Performance basics
Performance measurement and tuning issues and methods are relevant to daily database server administration and query execution.
Performance monitoring and the tools you use
You can use performance monitoring tools to create a performance history, to monitor database resources at scheduled times, or to monitor ongoing transaction or query performance.
Effect of configuration on CPU utilization
The combination of operating-system and
HCL OneDB™
configuration parameters can affect CPU utilization. You can change the settings of the
HCL OneDB™
configuration parameters that directly affect CPU utilization, and you can adjust the settings for different types of workloads.
Effect of configuration on memory utilization
The combination of operating-system and
HCL OneDB™
configuration parameters can affect memory utilization.
Effect of configuration on I/O activity
The configuration of your database server affects I/O activity.
Table performance considerations
Some performance issues are associated with unfragmented tables and table fragments.
Indexes and index performance considerations
HCL OneDB™
provides several types of indexes. Some performance issues are associated with indexes.
Locking
The database server uses locks, which can affect concurrency and performance. You can monitor and administer locks.
Fragmentation guidelines
One of the most frequent causes of poor performance in relational database systems is contention for data that resides on a single I/O device. Proper fragmentation of high-use tables can significantly reduce I/O contention. These topics discuss the performance considerations that are involved when you use table fragmentation.
Queries and the query optimizer
These topics describe query plans, explain how the database server manages query optimization, and discuss factors that you can use to influence the query plan. These topics also describe performance considerations for SPL routines, the UDR cache, and triggers.
Optimizer directives
Optimizer directives
are comments that tell the query optimizer how to execute a query. You can use optimizer directives to improve query performance.
Parallel database query (PDQ)
You can manage how the database server performs PDQ and you can monitor the resources that the database server uses for PDQ.
Improving individual query performance
You can test, monitor, and improve queries.
The onperf utility on UNIX
The
onperf
utility is a windowing environment that you can use to monitor the database server performance. The
onperf
utility monitors the database server running on the UNIX™ operating system.
Appendix
Case studies and examples
This appendix contains a case study with examples of performance-tuning methods that this publication describes.
OneDB Explore
OneDB Explore
is a modern web console for visualizing, monitoring, and managing your
OneDB
server instances. It is purpose built for ease-of-use, scaling out, and optimizing DevOps needs. It provides critical performance management capabilities, monitoring how key performance metrics are changing over time and tracking how efficiently
OneDB
is running your workload even when you’ve stepped away from your screen. Its monitoring system feeds directly into a customizable alerting system so you can be immediately alerted via email, Twilio, or PagerDuty whenever an issue occurs on one of your
OneDB
database server instances.
OneDB Explore
is designed to be scalable to efficiently manage and monitor as many OneDB database server instances as you need. Moreover, it's a tool that can be shared by the DBAs, the app developers, the ops engineers, and management and accessed from any desktop, laptop, or mobile device. OneDB Explore is the centralized hub for graphical monitoring, alerting, and administration of your
OneDB
database servers.
Backup and Restore Guide
The
HCL OneDB™ Backup and Restore Guide
describes how to use the
HCL® OneDB®
ON-Bar
utility to back up and restore database server data.
This will enable you to recover your databases after data is lost or becomes corrupted due to hardware or software failure or accident.
Enterprise Replication
The
HCL OneDB™
Enterprise Replication Guide
describes the concepts of data replication using
HCL® OneDB® Enterprise Replication
, including how to design your replication system, as well as administer and manage data replication throughout your enterprise.
