Row compression test

Hello, All
I try to research and test row compression on DB2 9.7
I have one BW table with 67 M rows on our production system with DB2 9.1.7 what hold 793558 pages
I create the same general table (ODSTAB) and it's copy table (ODSTAB_COMP) with COMPRESS YES on sample DB2 9.7 database.
Next, i load both tables with 67 M rows
I have strange result's of table's size after load and runstats compared to 9.1 original not compressed table
The table size is estimated from SYSIBMADM.ADMINTABINFO view (DATA_OBJECT_P_SIZE column)
9.1.7 - original not comressed table                     - 12698528
9.7.0 - ODSTAB (not compressed table)             -   14281344 (Wow!!!)
9.7.0 - ODSTAB_COMP (compressed table)           -   12344928
Compression ratio for ODSTAB_COMP table is 76% (as presented in SYSIBMADM.ADMINTABCOMPRESSINFO) but it's not true (why?) in compare of allocated data pages.
In the sample 9.7 database table's created each on it's own AUTRESIZE DMS table space with 16k pagesize, extentsize 2 and INCREASESIZE 5M.
I have two question :
1. Why native table size is different on 9.1 and 9.7 of ~1,5Gb ( 12698528 vs 14281344) ?
2. Why real comression ratio (14281344 vs 12344928) is too small and how i can increase it (may be some best practice or trick's is available) ?
Thank you for all advises!
With best regards, Dmitry

Second question is solved.
After REORG ....RESETDICTIONARY allocated pages is reduced by 74%
A think it related with automatic dictionary creation when table was LOADed (ROWS_SAMPLED was only 10132)
With best regards, Dmitry

Page compression vs. row compression - 30 % savings

According to
Note 1143246 - R3load: row compression as default for SQL 2008
R3load uses row compression (starting with a certain patchlevel).
I built up a system using TDMS (ERP 6.0 with EHP4) with row compression, target system size was ~ 550 GB. If I built the same system using page compression (by changing DBMSS.TPL during R3load) the system uses only 300 GB.
As of now, is page compression supported and will there be a standard way in building systems using page compression (e. g. an R3load option?)

Hi Markus,
Please check the following note:
Note 991014 - Row Compression/Vardecimal on SQL Server
> Page Compression:
>
> With SQL Server 2008 "Page Compression" was introduced, as well. Here the whole data page will be compressed, not
> just row by row as with "Row Compression".
> Page compression is not the standard for SAP and it's currently still under investigation.
> Page compression is supported from the ABAP/4 dictionary and we did not see or do expect any problems in that area.
> But you should still first test page compression for your application before you go productive with it.

Ideas for tension and compression test stand

Hello,
I currently work for a company that manufactures weigh scale
devices. A majority of the devices are either patient weight
scales ( the kind you stand on at the doctors ) or a tension load cell
(displays patient weight when on a lifter). Typically the devices
can weigh up to 1000lbs full scale.
My job usually consists of performing engineering test / evaluation of
these devices. A majority of the testing involves me slinging
massive amounts of weight all day… I usually have to do
repeatability testing, linearity runs (ascending / descending),
etc. Currently this technique is purely physical… I
am looking for ideas to make it a LabView controlled technique that is
relatively CHEAP.
Desired:
1) Relatively accurate (at 1000 lbs) accurate AND REPEATABLE to 0.05 lbs
2) Once at a particular load it must remain stable to 0.00 lbs ( sometimes air compression devices oscillate)
3) Can be configured for tension loads or compression loads (can be manual to configure)
4) Automation – Would like to run either tension testing OR compression
testing but to be able to just walk away and have the system
automagically perform the repeatability/linearity runs, etc.
Ideas so far:
A) A lever arm whose fulcrum point changes based on a linear motor and a known load.
B Some kind of linear motor that can be securely mounted
vertically: would have to have various types of attachments to
configure tension / compression testing.
I haven’t even begun to research linear motors… I don’t even know if they are appropriate or not for the application.
Any brainstorming ideas would be greatly appreciated
Thank you for your time

Personally, I would not try to reinvent the wheel. First to enter my mind is compressive/tensile testing with off-the-shelf equipment from Instron or similar manufacturer. They have highly capable automation/data collection software too. Not cheap as you wanted, but precise, repeatable, traceable, and pretty much out of the box solution, less custom fixturing. Realize you request 0.005% repeatability at 1000lbs full scale, keep in mind the time, cost, and labor you may incur trying to design, build, test, and certify an in-house built solution.
If not, maybe you can get some ideas by looking at how such equipment works.
Voice-coil mass drivers may be a means to apply forces.
May the force be with you

DB2 Row compression activated - Any changes during System Copy process?

Hell All,
I have activated DB2 Row Compression.
Now i want to do a System Copy.
Any changes due to this feature in the regular System Copy procedure? Like using R3load fastload COMPRESS options?
Thanks,
Bidwan

Hello Bidwan,
Please see the following blog regarding row compression:
/people/johannes.heinrich/blog/2006/09/05/new-features-in-db2-udb-v9--part-4
R3load has the new option '-loadprocedure fast COMPRESS'. Started with this option it loads part of the data, does a REORG to create the compression dictionary and then loads the rest of the data. This way the table does not grow up to it's full size before it is compressed. For more details see OSS note 886231.
Regards,
Paul

ROW COMPRESSION - table /SAPAPO/BOP

Hello guys,
I have a big performance problem in table /SAPAPO/BOP at SCM system. I run the /SAPAPO/BOP_DELETE to delete entries older than 7 days. I saw in my database lot executions as sequential read, update and delete during of SPP and GATP - BO processing. As I have the ROW COMPRESSION active for this table, I would like to know if this could have some impact for the performance issue.
Could you please advise about this?
Many thanks,
Carlos.

Hi
Please check the note below may help you,

Labview interface with Instron 3360 Series (for compressive test)

Hello Forums!
I have to write a LabVIEW code to read the Instron 3360 to compress a thin-walled cylinder. The cylinder is expected to withstand about 500lb. How do I go about doing this?
- Thanks!
- gibiv (high school student)

Can you tell me a little more about your application? More specifically:
1. What is the input/output of the instrument you are using to measure force?
2. Are you using NI Hardware to communicate with this device?
3. What drivers are you using?
4. What version of LabVIEW are you using?
I have included some general information below about configuring a data acquisition system in LabVIEW.

Jack, again the results are printed to the std. out console AFTER the test data row has been completed. Is there a way to query VSTest.console and find out which test\data row is being executed so it can be written out to the console

11.2.0.3.3 impdp compress table

HI ML :
源库： 10.2.0.3 compress table
target ： 11.2.0.3.3 impdp 源端的compress tables，在目标端是否是compress table
之前在10g库直接通过impdp dblink 导入时候发现，入库的表需要手工做move compress。
MOS 文档给的的测试时在10g开始支持导入自动维护compress table ：
Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition - Version: 9.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.1 - Release: 9.2 to 11.2
Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
Original import utility bypasses the table compression or does not compress, if the table is precreated as compressed. Please follow the next example that demonstrates this.
connect / as sysdba
create tablespace tbs_compress datafile '/tmp/tbs_compress01.dbf' size 100m;
create user test identified by test default tablespace tbs_compress temporary tablespace temp;
grant connect, resource to test;
connect test/test
-- create compressed table
create table compressed
id number,
text varchar2(100)
) pctfree 0 pctused 90 compress;
-- create non-compressed table
create table noncompressed
id number,
text varchar2(100)
) pctfree 0 pctused 90 nocompress;
-- populate compressed table with data
begin
for i in 1..100000 loop
insert into compressed values (1, lpad ('1', 100, '0'));
end loop;
commit;
end;
-- populate non-compressed table with identical data
begin
for i in 1..100000 loop
insert into noncompressed values (1, lpad ('1', 100, '0'));
end loop;
commit;
end;
-- compress the table COMPRESSED (previous insert doesn't use the compression)
alter table compressed move compress;
Let's now take a look at data dictionary to see the differences between the two tables:
connect test/test
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl ('TABLE', 'COMPRESSED') from dual;
DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL('TABLE','COMPRESSED')
CREATE TABLE "TEST"."COMPRESSED"
( "ID" NUMBER,
"TEXT" VARCHAR2(100)
) PCTFREE 0 PCTUSED 90 INITRANS 1 MAXTRANS 255 COMPRESS LOGGING
STORAGE(INITIAL 65536 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645
PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT)
TABLESPACE "TBS_COMPRESS"
1 row selected.
SQL> select dbms_metadata.get_ddl ('TABLE', 'NONCOMPRESSED') from dual;
DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL('TABLE','NONCOMPRESSED')
CREATE TABLE "TEST"."NONCOMPRESSED"
( "ID" NUMBER,
"TEXT" VARCHAR2(100)
) PCTFREE 0 PCTUSED 90 INITRANS 1 MAXTRANS 255 NOCOMPRESS LOGGING
STORAGE(INITIAL 65536 NEXT 1048576 MINEXTENTS 1 MAXEXTENTS 2147483645
PCTINCREASE 0 FREELISTS 1 FREELIST GROUPS 1 BUFFER_POOL DEFAULT)
TABLESPACE "TBS_COMPRESS"
1 row selected.
col segment_name format a30
select segment_name, bytes, extents, blocks from user_segments;
SEGMENT_NAME BYTES EXTENTS BLOCKS
COMPRESSED 2097152 17 256
NONCOMPRESSED 11534336 26 1408
2 rows selected.
The table COMPRESSED needs fewer storage space than the table NONCOMPRESSED. Now, let's export the tables using the original export utility:
#> exp test/test file=test_compress.dmp tables=compressed,noncompressed compress=n
About to export specified tables via Conventional Path ...
. . exporting table COMPRESSED 100000 rows exported
. . exporting table NONCOMPRESSED 100000 rows exported
Export terminated successfully without warnings.
and then import them back:
connect test/test
drop table compressed;
drop table noncompressed;
#> imp test/test file=test_compress.dmp tables=compressed,noncompressed
. importing TEST's objects into TEST
. . importing table "COMPRESSED" 100000 rows imported
. . importing table "NONCOMPRESSED" 100000 rows imported
Import terminated successfully without warnings.
Verify the extents after original import:
col segment_name format a30
select segment_name, bytes, extents, blocks from user_segments;
SEGMENT_NAME BYTES EXTENTS BLOCKS
COMPRESSED 11534336 26 1408
NONCOMPRESSED 11534336 26 1408
2 rows selected.
=> The table compression is gone.
Cause
This is an expected behaviour. Import is not performing a bulk load/direct path operations, so the data is not inserted as compressed.
Only Direct path operations such as CTAS (Create Table As Select), SQL*Loader Direct Path will compress data. These operations include:
•Direct path SQL*Loader
•CREATE TABLE and AS SELECT statements
•Parallel INSERT (or serial INSERT with an APPEND hint) statements
Solution
The way to compress data after it is inserted via a non-direct operation is to move the table and compress the data:
alter table compressed move compress;
Beginning with Oracle version 10g, DataPump utilities (expdp/impdp) perform direct path operations and so the table compression is maintained, like in the following example:
- after crating/populating the two tables, export them with:
#> expdp test/test directory=dpu dumpfile=test_compress.dmp tables=compressed,noncompressed
Processing object type TABLE_EXPORT/TABLE/TABLE
. . exported "TEST"."NONCOMPRESSED" 10.30 MB 100000 rows
. . exported "TEST"."COMPRESSED" 10.30 MB 100000 rows
Master table "TEST"."SYS_EXPORT_TABLE_01" successfully loaded/unloaded
and re-import after deletion with:
#> impdp test/test directory=dpu dumpfile=test_compress.dmp tables=compressed,noncompressed
Processing object type TABLE_EXPORT/TABLE/TABLE_DATA
. . imported "TEST"."NONCOMPRESSED" 10.30 MB 100000 rows
. . imported "TEST"."COMPRESSED" 10.30 MB 100000 rows
Job "TEST"."SYS_IMPORT_TABLE_01" successfully completed at 12:47:51
Verify the extents after DataPump import:
col segment_name format a30
select segment_name, bytes, extents, blocks from user_segments;
SEGMENT_NAME BYTES EXTENTS BLOCKS
COMPRESSED 2097152 17 256
NONCOMPRESSED 11534336 26 1408
2 rows selected.
=> The table compression is kept.
===========================================================
1 到底11.2.0.3 是否支持impdp自动维护compress table 通过dblink 方式？
2
This is an expected behaviour. Import is not performing a bulk load/direct path operations, so the data is not inserted as compressed.
Only Direct path operations such as CTAS (Create Table As Select), SQL*Loader Direct Path will compress data. These operations include:
•Direct path SQL*Loader
•CREATE TABLE and AS SELECT statements
•Parallel INSERT (or serial INSERT with an APPEND hint) statements
Solution
The way to compress data after it is inserted via a non-direct operation is to move the table and compress the data:
以上意思在10g之前是必须以上方式才能支持目标端入库压缩表，10g开始支持自动压缩？貌似 10g也需要手工move。

Enabling GZIP compression on the HTTPBC or a suggested alternative approach

Hi,
I posted this on the openusb-users group, but I haven't come up with a good solution yet.
Any takers?
Thanks,
Rob
http://openesb-users.794670.n2.nabble.com/gzip-compression-support-in-HTTP-BC-tp5366301.html
Does anybody know whether the HTTP BC shares all of the same features that the Glassfish HTTP listener supports such as gzip compression? If so, where are those parameters specified for the HTTP BC? (Compression of the XML can of course make a tremendous bandwidth savings for the typical XML passed around via SOAP.)
Please see:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-4338/abhco?a=view
compression - on
Specifies use of HTTP/1.1 GZIP compression to save server bandwidth. Allowed values are:
off Disables compression.
on Compresses data.
force Forces data compression in all cases.
positive integer Specifies the minimum amount of data required before the output is compressed.
If the content-length is not known, the output is compressed only if compression is set to on or force.
compressableMimeType text/html,text/xml,text/plain
Specifies a comma-separated list of MIME types for which HTTP compression is used.
If there isn't a way to configure the HTTPBC, What would be the best way to enable a gzip compression of the XML for the HTTPBC or JBI framework in general?
My first approach might be to just have a Glassfish HTTP-Listener based WebService delegate to the HTTPBC or more directly to the JBI SE components if possible. Maybe a filter on the HTTPBC to gzip the payload? Are there any plans to refactor HTTPBC to use the Glassfish HTTP Listener code, it appears to have more capability and options?
Rob

I tried it did not work.
Below are the steps which I did:
Test2: Table level compression test
===================================
CREATE TABLE SCOTT.TEST_PMT_TAB_COMP
PMT_ID INTEGER NOT NULL,
PMT_AGCY_NBR CHAR(7 BYTE),
PMT_SBAGCY_NBR CHAR(7 BYTE),
PMT_PAY_DT DATE,
PMT_POL_NBR CHAR(14 BYTE),
PMT_POL_SEQ_NBR CHAR(2 BYTE),
PMT_PRM_INSD_NM VARCHAR2(30 BYTE),
PMT_PAY_TYP_DESC VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
PMT_PAY_AMT NUMBER(11,2),
PMT_POST_DT DATE
COMPRESS FOR ALL OPERATIONS;
inserting record from the test table:
SQL> insert into SCOTT.TEST_PMT_TAB_COMP select * from SCOTT.TEST_PMT;
5051013 rows created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> select count(*) from scott.TEST_PMT_TAB_COMP;
COUNT(*)
5051013
Checking size:
SQL> select bytes/1024/1024, segment_name, owner, segment_type, tablespace_name from dba_segments where segment_name='TEST_PMT_TAB_COMP';
BYTES/1024/1024 SEGMENT_NAME OWNER SEGMENT_TYPE TABLESPACE_NAME
776 TEST_PMT_TAB_COMP SCOTT TABLE USERS_DATA01
SQL> select owner, table_name, COMPRESSION, COMPRESS_FOR from dba_tables where table_name='TEST_PMT_TAB_COMP';
OWNER TABLE_NAME COMPRESS COMPRESS_FOR
SCOTT TEST_PMT_TAB_COMP ENABLED OLTP
Now it is occupying more size.

Real experience with compression

Hi all,
has anyone actually done a 2008 compression exercise yet? How much space did you save and what where the implications?
We are 'fighting' 6.5TB, growing by 80GB/week and would like to hear from others who have done it yet.
Thanks & Regards,
Andi

Hi,
since I wanted to test the revised Stored Procedure sp_use_db_compression (see above) I installed an IDES SR3 + imported a bunch of SAP Support Packages to closely match our other systems. Then I created the Stored Procedure and ran this statement against the DB (the job finished a couple minutes ago):
sp_use_db_compression PAGE, @maxdop=4, @online='OFF', @data_only='ALL', @verbose=1, @schemas='ALL';
The results were (in GB):
Files - Reserved - Used before Compression - Used after Compression
DATA1 - 64,45 - 62,70 - 32,11

The overall TA-Log volume was about 65 GB (backup every 10 minutes). I used PAGE and index compression which - I think - is not fully supported yet (check Note 991014). With ROW compression we achieved results of 25 to 40%. Set up a testrun and post your results.

Problem in .rtf template with 2 dimensions in rows section

There is a problem with standard .rtf template: if we select two dimensions in rows, table header (with months) moves left to the position of the second column of row dimension like there is only one dimension in rows (i tested even with 4 dimension in rows, header still starts from the position of the second column of row dimension), in any case default template acts like there is only one dimension in a rows section when a report is being formed, if anybody has already faced that problem maybe you could share an advice to fix it?
p.s. We usually use 1 and 2 dimension in rows

i have a suggestion that there is a problem with colspan parameter in xml file that is built when HP starts creating pdf report, could anybody advise where i can find this xml that is used for creating report?

Local, Testing server, Remote server uploading

I have my web files in a local directory, say c:
webfiles\myweb. I also have a local testing server at
c:\Apache\htdocs\myweb, and finally a production site at
www.myweb.com. The problem is that when I edit a file in my local
directory it updated the testing server and not the production
remote - which is what I expect. My problem is that I don't know
how to update the production server as there does not seem to be
any menu choice for this. I am sure I am doing something stupid,
but I can't figure out whats wrong. Basically I don't quite get how
the relationship between the 3 file locations interact with each
other. Any help would be sincerely appreciated as its driving me
crazy.

Expand the Files panel. On the toolbar, there are three icons
in a row -
Remote | Testing | Site Map. Select the Remote icon, and you
will now be
connecting with the Remote site for PUT/GET. The testing
server will now
only be used for Previews or Live Data displays.

How can i set the alternating colors for a table rows

Dear All,
Please any one help me how can i set the Alternating colors for Table Rows.
i created a theam there i set the background alternating color to brown and i set the table design properity to alternating. but it is not reflecting.

Hi,
The design property in Table properties should work for your requirement. Select "alternating" value for design.
Please see the API below:
design
Determines the appearance of the table. The property design can take the following values and is represented by enumeration type WDTableDesign.
alternating - The table rows are displayed alternately in a different color.
standard - The table background has one color. The individual table rows are displayed with grid net lines.
transparent - The table background is transparent. The individual table rows are displayed without grid net lines.
Check whether you have changed the right property or not? Also table should contain more than one rows to test this scenario.
Regards,
Jaya.

Update multiple rows & columns using a single statement

I have the following table with tablename - emp
first_name last_name age
aaa bbb 31
56
78
ggg hhh 36
2nd & 3rd row contain null values (no data) in first_name & last_name column . I want to update those two rows with data using a single statement. How do I do it?
I was thinking may be something like the following:-
UPDATE emp
SET first_name= , last_name=
CASE
WHEN age = 56 THEN 'ccc', 'ddd'
WHEN age = 78 THEN 'eee', 'fff'
ELSE first_name, last_name
END
-----------------------------------------------

Can you give an example of a nested decode statement.

Extrapolate that to 255 components and you get 254 + 255 = 509 components. And so on...

How to add the rows formatted as table headings, Tables headings are repeated when a table spans more than one page.

Hi all,
i am facing problem while generating Test Result word document after successful execution of TestStand.
The Problem is :
i want to add rows Formatted as table headings, table headings are repeated when a table spans more than one page(marked as Red).
Example:
Page No. 1
|     Test case Number | Test Step number      |
|      100                         |            100                   |
Page No. 2
|     Test case Number | Test Step number      |
|      200                         |            300                   |
Test Result word document should generate with Table headings(marked as Red) in every pages of the document, but i am not getting as per above example.
Please through light on this.
Regards,
Susa.

Hi Santiago,
Thank you very much for your valuable reply.
i want to generate MS-word report for TestStand after successful testing using MS-word2000.
Test report contains Actual values, Expected values and Pass/Fail status.
In my program i have customized all fields i can able to generate test report which contains Verification engineer name , test mode, test date, start time, end time Actual values, Expected values and Pass/Fail status.etc....
To put all values of test case number, Test step number, Actual values, Expected values and Pass/Fail status in to table for each time, i will
insert a row into table every time values arrives, once the table exceedes its page size it moves to the next page, next page should start with table row header but it start with values of above said parameters.
so i'm not able to repeat table row header for each page.
Please find the attached file for your reference.
Attched file expected.doc :   This file contains what i wanted to generate MS-word report. Here table row header "Test Case Number and Test Step Number " is repeated in second page.
Attached file Actual output from source code.doc   : This report generated from the source code. Here table row header "Test Case Number and Test Step Number" is not repeated in second page.
Do you know any property to set "repeat as header row at the top of each page" using MS-word ActiveX in CVI/Labwindows.
i think this information is sufficient for you,
Still if you need some information please ask me.
Thanks
Susa.
