PMIRPT23 fields

Field

Description

Start Time

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

End Time

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

Buffer Name

Name of buffer

Buffer Page Size

Size of buffer pages

Buffer Page Defined

Number of pages defined for buffer

Buffer Reads

Number of times DBMS requested a new database page for which a physical I/O occurred

Buffer Writes

Number of times a buffer page was discarded in order to read another page

Buffer Pgs In Use

Number of pages currently in use in the buffer

Buffer Flushes

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

Buffer Requests

Total number of buffer requests (the sum of Pages Fnd in Pool and Buffer Reads)

Pages Fnd In Pool

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

Pages Fnd Ratio (%)

Percent of Pages Fnd in Pool to Buffer Requests; this ratio should be as close to 100 as possible

Read I/O Waits

Number of physical read I/Os that resulted in a wait and the total, highest, and average wait times

Write I/O Waits

Number of physical write I/Os that resulted in a wait and the total, highest, and average wait times

DB Buffer Waits

Number of times a page within the area had to wait for a buffer page to become available and the total, highest, and average wait times

Shared Buffer Waits

Number of times transactions wanted to access a database page that was exclusively held by another transaction and the total, highest, and average wait times

Exclusive Buffer Waits

Number of times transactions waited for exclusive access to a database page and the total, highest, and average wait times
