Critical File Resource statistics displayed in SirMon
Critical File Resource statistics describe activity which is occurring
against the four critical file resources: DIRECT, INDEX, EXISTS, and RECENQ.
Each of the critical file resources protects the integrity of a
Model 204 file structure.
Critical file resource statistics are provided by SirMon to assist in diagnosing second order performance problems. Keep in mind that the resources themselves are not what is being viewed, but the activity that is occurring against them.
In RKWeb, you can display critical file resource statistics for files or user by selecting Performance > Custom from the Monitor tab, then clicking Files or Users along with the Critical File Resource drop-down menu item.
| BUFPAGE | Total number of pages in the disk buffer pool currently occupied by pages from all tables in the database file. Equal to BUFPAGA+BUFPAGB+BUFPAGC+BUFPAGD+BUFPAGF. |
|---|---|
| CFRCDIR | Conflicts on the DIRECT critical file resource (rate or total). This resource protects the integrity of Table B. |
| CFRCEXS | Conflicts on the EXISTS critical file resource. This resource protects the integrity of the existence bit map. |
| CFRCIND | Conflicts on the INDEX critical file resource. This resource protects the integrity of the database indexes. |
| CFRCREC | Conflicts on the RECENQ critical file resource. This resource protects the integrity of the record enqueueing tables. |
| CFRQDIR | Number of users waiting for the DIRECT critical file resource. This resource protects the integrity of table B. |
| CFRQEXS | Number of users waiting for the EXISTS critical file resource. This resource protects the integrity of the existence bit map. |
| CFRQIND | Number of users waiting for the INDEX critical file resource. This resource protects the integrity of the database indexes. |
| CFRQREC | Number of users waiting for the RECENQ critical file resource. This resource protects the integrity of the record enqueuing tables. |
| CFRQUEU | Number of users waiting for any critical file resource. |
| DKRD | Physical page reads from a Model204 database file or CCATEMP. |
| DKWR | Physical page writes to a Model 204 database file or CCATEMP. |
| HDDIRCT | Type of enqueue on the critical file resource that protects the Table B records (EXC, SHR, or blank). |
| HDEXIST | Type of enqueue on the critical file resource that protects the existence bit map (EXC, SHR, or blank). |
| HDINDEX | Type of enqueue on the critical file resource that protects the Table C and D indexes (EXC, SHR, or blank). |
| HDRECNQ | Type of enqueue on the critical file resource that protects existence bit map pages for locked record sets (EXC, SHR, or blank). |
| PNAME | Name of the currently executing or last executed procedure. |
