RMUDISPLAY72.HLB  —  Overview  Screens  Locking Analysis Screen
 This screen provides information about locking performance.
    The following information is examined:

    o  Lock stalls, timeouts, and deadlocks

    o  Excessive timeouts or deadlocks

    Information in the Locking Analysis screen is displayed only if
    it exceeds established threshold values or normal expectations.
    Note that the items identified in this screen are not necessarily
    indications of performance problems. The items may be an
    indication of a performance problem, but in most cases, further
    research is necessary.

    The Locking Analysis screen has a configuration submenu that
    allows you to set thresholds for the following:

    o  Lock stall threshold

       The default threshold is 2 seconds. You can override the
       default value with the RDM$BIND_STATS_MAX_LOCK_STALL logical
       name.

    Note that the Online Analysis facility uses the actual database
    parameters and attributes specified using interactive SQL. The
    Online Analysis facility does not use the Dashboard facility
    because the Database Dashboard attributes are temporary settings.
    Therefore, online changes made using the Dashboard facility are
    not reflected in the analysis output. Yet, using the Dashboard
    facility is the recommended method for testing potential database
    attribute settings. You must use interactive SQL in order to make
    the attribute settings persistent.

    Also note that the Online Analysis facility is invoked at the
    designated screen refresh interval. As the Online Analysis
    facility is fairly CPU intensive, and the analysis results seldom
    vary greatly over a miniscule period of time, it is recommended
    that the screen refresh interval be set to 3 seconds or more.

    The Locking Analysis screen is not recorded in the binary output
    file produced using the Output qualifier. Consequently, this
    screen is not available when you replay a binary file using the
    Input qualifier.
