PMIRPT13 fields

Field

Description

Start Time

Starting time for the interval on a 24-hour clock (hh:mm:ss).

Buffer Name

Name of the DC/UCF buffer pool.

Bufr Rqsts

Total number of database requests made against the buffer.

Bufr Flshs

Count of times a page had to be written to disk because another transaction required it.

Bufr Hits

Count of database requests that could be processed in the buffer without a physical I/O.

Hit Ratio

Ratio of the number of database requests that could be processed in the buffer without a physical I/O (hits) to the total number of buffer requests. For example, a hit ratio of 1.00 indicates that all database pages requested were available in the buffer. A hit ratio of 0.00 indicates that none of the database pages requested was available in the buffer.

Bufr Disk I/O

Count of requests that could not be processed in the buffer, and therefore required a physical I/O.

I/O Wait Time

Time spent waiting for I/O to complete requests that could not be processed in the buffer (ss.ttt).

Average I/O Time

Average amount of time spent waiting for I/O to complete requests that could not be processed in the buffer (ss.tttt).

Buffer Waits

Count of waits for buffer requests; that is, the number of times the buffer was requested but not available.

Buffer Wait Time

Total time spent on buffer waits (ss.ttt).

Average Wait Time

Average amount of time spent on buffer waits (ss.tttt).

Bufr Page Size

Size of the largest page maintained in the buffer pool, in bytes.

Buf Read

Number of times a database page was read from disk, not from the buffer.

Buf Write

Number of times a buffer page was discarded from the journal buffers in order to read another page.
