DB13 Check DB performances

The Check DB via DB13 is getting more than 6 hours to complete on our Sap system.
It's and ECC6 with the database size about of 300GB, at latest kernel for Sap and SP level for Ms-Sql.
The hardware is really well sized and it seems not a problem due to missing resources (8CPU, 32GB memory).
We ned to know if there is a way to speed up this process, and to understand why it takes so much.
Any advise ?
Regards

> The saposcol is running and the data are collected regularly. It's my impression too the disk accesses is slow, but I cannot provide to the customer a clear test to prove this.
You can use the Windows performance monitor for that (start - execute - perfmon).
> The system is running well whithout errors and the Sap syslog does not contains any info or warning related to possible I/O problems.
No, that won't be logged by default. You can check in ST06 the disk with the highest I/O times. A single I/O shouldn't be much longer than 10 ms to be sure it's working "nicely" (however, this can also be just a rule of thumb).
> Are there some tools, also non Sap , to test the disks performances ?
You can start process explorer (no installation necessary) to watch the I/O throughput in real time:

There's also a simulation tool for SQL Server from Microsoft:

How to check the performance of a report

plz tell me all the ways to check the performance of a report
if u send me the step wise then it will be really helpful to me
awaiting for u r reply

I. Non Database Performance
Dead Code (Program -> Check -> Extended Prog. Check) - unused subroutines appear as warnings under PERFORM/FORM interfaces. - unused variables appear as warnings under Field attributes. Transaction code is SLIN. This will also catch literals (section III below).
When possible use MOVE instead of MOVE-CORRESPONDING (move bseg to *bseg or move t_prps[] to t_prps2[] if you want to copy entire table or t_prps to t_prps2 if you only want to copy header line.)
Code executed more than once should be placed in a form routine.
SORT and READ TABLE t_tab WITH KEY ... BINARY SEARCH when possible especially against non-buffered table (Data Dictionary -> Technical Info)
SORT tables BY fields
Avoid unnecessary moves to table header areas.
Subroutine parameters should be typed for efficiency and to help prevent coding and runtime errors.
II. Database Performanc
Avoid ORDER BY unless there is index on the columns - sort internal table instead
SELECT SINGLE when possible
SELECT fields FROM database table INTO TABLE t_tab (an internal table) - Lengthy discussion.
Views (inner join) are a fast way to access information from multiple tables. Be aware that the result set only includes rows that appear in both tables.
Use subqueries when possible.
"FOR ALL ENTRIES IN..." (outer join) are very fast but keep in the mind the special features and 3 pitfalls of using it.
(a) Duplicates are removed from the answer set as if you had specified "SELECT DISTINCT"... So unless you intend for duplicates to be deleted include the unique key of the detail line items in your select statement. In the data dictionary (SE11) the fields belonging to the unique key are marked with an "X" in the key column.
(b) If the "one" table (the table that appears in the clause FOR ALL ENTRIES IN) is empty, all rows in the "many" table (the table that appears in the SELECT INTO clause ) are selected. Therefore make sure you check that the "one" table has rows before issuing a select with the "FOR ALL ENTRIES IN..." clause.
(c) If the 'one' table (the table that appears in the clause FOR ALL ENTRIES IN) is very large there is performance degradation Steven Buttiglieri created sample code to illustrate this.
Where clause should be in order of index See example.
This is important when there are multiple indexes for a table and you want to make sure a specific index is used. This will change when we convert from a "rules based" Oracle optimizer to a "cost based" Oracle optimizer. You should be aware of a bug in Oracle, lovingly referred to as the "3rd Column Blues". Click here for more information on indexes.
Where clause should contain key fields in an appropriate db index or buffered tables. As long as we are using the Oracle Cost Based Optimizer, be aware fo the "Third Column Blues", an Oracle bug.
Avoid nested SELECTs (SELECT...ENDSELECT within another SELECT...ENDSELECT). Load data in internal tables instead. See item 3 above.
Use SQL statistical functions when possible (max, sum, ...)
Delete all rows from a table. A where clause is mandatory. Specifying the client is the most efficient way.
Put Check statements into where clause - caveat: Make sure that the index is still being used after you add the additional selection criteria. If the select statement goes from using an index to doing a db scan (reading each row in the database without going through an index) get it out of the where clause and go back to using "Check"!
III. Literals
Codes ('MD') should use contants (c_medical)
Longer text should use text elements. Sample code is a good example because it uses the text element in conjunction with the hard coded text. This documents the text element and provides for the possibility of multi-language support.
IV. Miscellaneous
Use CASE statement instead of IF...ELSEIF when possible (It is only possible in equality tests)
Nested If - encounter most likely to fail first (specific to general)
And - encounter most likely to fail first (specific to general)
OR's - encounter most likely to succeed first (general to specific)
Variables should use Like when possible
Subroutine usage - don't place decision to execute in the subroutine
If not ( t_prps[] is initial ) (instead of describe table t_prps lines sy-tfill, if sy-tfill > 0...)
New document types confirmed with the configuration team via MIT-ABAP mail list prior to coding a report to access the data.
Dates need to be properly formatted using the user's default settings. For the explanation of the BDC example check out the developer's standards.

Checking the performance of Pl/SQL Procedure

I have a PL/SQL procedure of 10,000 lines, & I dont have any Tool of performance checking only thing I have is SQL Client & database how whould I check the performance of the procedure

Why do you want to check the performance? Have you indentified a specific problem?
It is not easy to to "simply check the performance" of code. Let's say it has an elapsed execution time of 90 seconds. What does that tell you? Fast? Slow? Average? What does 90 seconds tell you about the resource utilisation? Nothing much - are resources being red lined for those 90 seconds or not?
So unless there is a specific performance problem that has been diagnosed, e.g. the process uses too much PGA memory, you cannot really identify a performance problem.
What you can do is use DBMS_PROFILE (Oracle supplied PL/SQL package) to profile the execution time of the code. This will tell you which pieces of the code are slower than others. This allows you to focus on area where possible optimisation can reduce overall execution time - or it could be that these areas are already optimised.
What you can miss with this approach is a small loop that takes a few seconds to execute - less than 1% of the total elapsed execution time. But this loop can be very wrong and should have taken a few millisecs to do. A month later running against big production data volumes, this loop's runtime changes into minutes and over 50% of the overall execution time of the process.
You may look at the FOR CURSOR FETCH loop and see that it has been optimised. Great, so you move on to look at the next piece of code. Only, there are other loop constructs that can be exponentially faster than this loop - like a bulk processing loop instead.
You may look at a SQL that seems slow, but after investigation it seems to be optimal. And it could well be. But performance can be increased by 80% by not touching the SQL and instead changing the table's structure from a normal heap table to a ranged partitioned table.
The bottom line is that there are no magic wands and crystal balls that can be used to check performance and tell you that "abc" is wrong. Tools can tell you what is slow, what is resource expensive - but it cannot tell you whether the code does what it is suppose to do in the best and most effective way. Only a programmer can. Which means that things like code reviews, design walk-thru's and so on, are critical pieces to ensure that the code is performant and can scale.

How to use transaction SOST & SCOT for checking Email performance ?

How to use transaction SOST & SCOT for checking Email performance ?
what exactly as CRM Functional we have to do in above transaction .
Please guide me . what is significance of these transaction ?
Regards,
Anup Reche

Hi Anup,
Transaction SOST is used to view the status of the sent mails from SAP.
You cna filter the mails sent by a particular user, on a specified date range and time.
You can list the mails in the status Waiting, Error, Sent or Transmitted.
You can also go to the log of the mail and see its details and can also open the mail sent by the user.
You can add the filters as per your requirement.
Transaction SCOT is SAP Connect used to make connections from SAP to external applications.
You cna configure sending of external mails in SCOT by specifying the SMTP host and port to be used.
Hope this gives you a basic idea of the 2 transactions.

I've checked and seen that SAPSERVICE<SID> and <SID>adm do indeed have full access to the K:\oracle\RP2\sapcheck directory. What else could be wrong?

try to run brconnect manually at OS level with user [sid]adm.
but first, run this comand:
for sh:
set BR_TRACE = 15 ; export BR_TRACE
you wil lhavea lot more information on what it is trying to do. I suspect that brconnect is trying to run on an application server which, obviously, does not have Oracle installed.

DB13 Check database not working

Hi All,
Check DB and update stats from DB13 does not work. It comes back with the following error
Can't exec external program (No such file or directory)
Checked from OS level and found that brconnect -u / -c -f check works only from exe directory. If i execute the
command from any other directory it comes back with an error saying command not found
Upon further investigation found that this is an issue with env variable PATH
The current value of PATH in env variable of sidadm is
PATH=/oracle/SID/102_64/bin:/opt/IBMJava2-amd64-142/bin:.:/export/home/sidadm:/usr/sap/SID/DVEBMGS01/exe:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
I want to change the value from usr/sap/SID/DVEBMGS01/exe to /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run
I checked all the csh and .sh profiles for sidadm user but i did not find any PATH variable,
I can see DIR_LIBRARY and LD_LIBRARY_PATH but i cant see PATH variable
Checked the shell and it is /bin/csh
checked .bash_profile and all i can see is this
.bash_profile
Get the aliases and functions
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
User specific environment and startup programs
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
export PATH
unset USERNAME
Has any one faced this issue earlier??
Meanwhile i have found a temporary fix for timebeing i.e i copied all the br* executables from /sapmnt/SID/exe to
/usr/sap/SID/DVEBMGS01/exe and after doing that DB13 - DBcheck and Update optimizer works fine.
Regards,
Ershad Ahmed

Hi Sunil and Eric
Thanks for the reply
I checked all the profiles but no luck. I cant find the parameter.
As i mentioned in my earlier post i have found a temporary fix by copying the br executables from /sapmnt/SID/exe to
/usr/sap/SID/DVEBMGS01/exe and ran saproot.sh and that resolved the issue.
If i can change my PATH variable to point to /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run that would be a permanent fix

Checking Database performance - DB02

Hi All,
I had a query with DB02,
1. In v3.5 when we go to transaction DB02 and check the Tables and Indexes tab and look into Detailed Analysis,
we can specify the desired object for which we need the analysis.
2. In v7.0 if we see transaction DB02 where can we find a similar option?
Basically i want to check the size of the objects in the system.
Thanks in Advance.
Shweta

Hi Shweta,
Please use T Code ST14 for getting the size of Objects.This can give you Top 30 desired objects ( DSO, PSA, Fact Table, E Table etc).
Moreover if you need to perform any analysis regarging the objects size in your system , by use of this T code you can schedule a job and outout of the job will give you desired result.You can also specify the date range in which you want to find the object size.
And if you need size of few tables only , you can get this by DB02->Space-->Tables and Indexes.
Give the required Tablename or table space name.In display options select Sort by size.
Hope this helps.
