Re: Problem with ONBAR: unusually slow on IDS ....

Posted By: John Miller iii
Date: Wednesday, 23 February 2011, at 9:13 p.m.

In Response To: Re: Problem with ONBAR: unusually slow on IDS 11.5 (Fernando Nunes)

I would suggest you try the query below. For large system with lots of
partition pages the problem is the sequential scan on the sysptnhdr table.
The
directives added to the query below should force the use of the index on
the
sysptnhdr table. If this query does perform well you can install the
directives
using the "Save External Directive" statement and fix the issue.

select {+ORDERED, USE_NL(sysptnhdr) } ( sum ( npused ) )

from sysdbspaces as D , sysptnhdr as P

where D.dbsnum = TRUNC ( P.partnum/1048576 ) and name = "rootdbs"
