Re: Instance constantly checkpointing...

In Response To: Instance constantly checkpointing... (Tristan Ball)

Hello Tristan.
You didn´t mention your engine version and architecture, but supposing
you´re running 11.50,
here´s a good link of Information Center to help you:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/idshelp/v115/index.jsp?tab=search&searchWord=monitoring+checkpoints

Obs: is it a new machine, or an old one? If it suddently started to
happen may indicate some application change....
And your physical log size must be really slow, depending on the size of
you bufferpools.

I have small instances here, on linux_64 and IDS 11.70.FC2 of 40GB with
1GB on physical log, that´s running pretty smooth for us.

Best regards.
