SQL Collector for Monitor Server Overview

SQL Collector for Monitor Server > SQL Collector for Monitor Server Overview

The SQL Collector for Monitor Server allows you to capture from the Adaptive Server Enterprise Monitor Server any currently executing SQL statements according to your user-defined criteria. Each SQL statement captured is categorized according to suspected levels of performance problem.

The SQL Collector for Monitor Server provides an easy way of viewing and analyzing any SQL statements currently running on the database server. You can specify your own criteria to use in selecting the SQL statements you want to view. Each SQL statement monitored is analyzed to see whether it is potentially problematic so that you can quickly determine which SQL statements may be causing the performance problem.

The SQL Collector window provides a work area for you to add and delete Collectors, storing information on the Collector name and description, number of SQL analyzed, start time, end time, and duration. It offers a way to view the monitored SQL statements. It displays the monitored SQL statement, corresponding query plan and related information such as server process ID (SPID), login name, capture time, and database name. You are able to copy problematic SQL statements to the SQL Optimizer for optimization.

SQL statements collected in Inspector files can be also be analyzed with the SQL Scanner module. Once you have identified potentially problematic SQL statements you can send the SQL to the SQL Optimizer, Index Advisor, the SQL Worksheet, or save them to the SQL Repository.

The SQL Collector for Monitor Server retrieves the SQL statements using the Adaptive Server Enterprise Monitor Server.

Monitor Server Name on Client SQL.INI and Server must match.

The Adaptive Server and Monitor Server are defined in the \sybase\ini\sql.ini file on the client PC. The names in the SQL.INI file must match exactly the name of the Adaptive Server and the Monitor Server on the Database Server.

Monitor Server Name in Collector setup must match

When adding a new Collector in the Add Collector window, the name for the Monitor Server must match exactly the name of the Monitor Server in the SQL.INI file.

Tempdb size

The tempdb system segment should be at least 20 MB.

Logon Privilege

You must have sa_role privilege assigned to your logon.

Adaptive Server parameter

ASE Parameter

Description

Recommended setting

event buffers per engine Specifies the number of events per database server that can be simultaneously monitored. sp_configure "event buffers per engine", 2000

max SQL text monitored

Specifies the maximum size in Kbytes of the SQL text monitored per connection.

sp_configure "max SQL text monitored", 4096

enable monitoring

Disables the collection of performance statistics through the monitoring tables.

sp_configure "enable monitoring", 0

The SQL Collector window consists of the toolbar, Job List pane, the SQL Text pane, the SQL Information pane and status bar. 

Collector List

The Collector List pane in the SQL Collector window stores information on each Collector. Information includes:

Item Description

Collector Name

The unique Collector name defined by the user.

Description

Description of the Collector defined by the user.

Status

The current status of the Collector. This column will remain blank until the monitoring process has started.

Number of SQL

Total number of SQL statements collected

Problematic SQL

Number of Problematic SQL statements collected.

Complex SQL

Number of Complex SQL statements collected.

Simple SQL

Number of Simple SQL statements collected.

SQL without Plan

Number of SQL statements collected without a query plan.

Creation Date Time

Date and time of when the Collector was created.

Start Time

Start time of when the monitoring process starts.

End Time

End time of when the monitoring process ends.

Server Name

Monitor Server name.

Note: The definitions of Problematic, Complex, and Simple SQL statements are provided in the SQL Collector Criteria tab of the Add Collector wizard.

SQL Text

The SQL Text pane displays the monitored SQL statements for a particular Collector. The layout of the SQL statement is unformatted and displayed according to how it is retrieved from the Adaptive Server Enterprise Monitor Server. SQL statements captured from the Monitor Server may consist of transact-SQL and stored procedures. Therefore to identify the SQL statements that you may want to optimize, you should use the SQL Scanner to identify the SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT and DELETE SQL statements that are contained with the stored procedures or transact-SQL .

SQL Information

If the query plan is retrieved for the monitored SQL statement the query plan and other details will be displayed in the SQL Information Pane

Status Bar

The status bar at the bottom of the SQL Collector window shows the following details:

Item Description

Data Directory

Path showing where all the data files produced during monitoring are saved. While monitoring, a progress bar displays to show the monitoring progress.

Total Collectors

Total number of Collectors.

Completed

Total number of Collectors already monitored.

Remaining

Total number of Collectors that have not been monitored.

Note: The SQL Collector window must remain open during the monitoring process. If you have started the monitoring process, but the scheduled time has not arrived, this window must remain open for the monitoring process to start and run to completion.
