Plan Tables (Most familiar)

• PLAN_TABLE Contains most of the access path selection information that was

gathered when the package was bound with EXPLAIN(YES).

• DSN_STATEMNT_TABLE Contains COST_CATEGORY, REASON AND costing information

PROCSU, PROCMS. The costing numbers are ESTIMATED and can very widely with changes to DB2.

DB2 V9 adds a TOTAL_COST

DB2 V9 addsPARENT_PLANNO

Plan Tables (Continued)• DSN_FILTER_TABLE

Contains information on what stage the predicate is processed (MATCHING, SCREENING, STAGE1 and STAGE2).

• DSN_PREDICAT_TABLE Contains FILTERFACTOR, BOOLEAN_TERM indicator and the

actual predicate text.

• DSN_DETCOST_TABLE Contains detailed cost information (COMPCOST) at each step of

the access path (mini plan), an estimate on the number of rows that will be returned after the local predicates are applied (ONECOMPROW) and an estimate of rows returned from DM and RDS (DMROWS,RDSROW).

Q

DSN_FILTER_TABLE/DSN_PREDICAT_TABLE

DSN_PREDICAT_TABLE

• DSN_PREDICAT_TABLE and SYSCOLUMNS and SYSKEYS provide information helpful for index review

DSN_DETCOST_TABLE

DSN_DETCOST_TABLE

OT

Plan Tables (Continued)

• DSN_VIRTUAL_INDEXES This table allows for the creation or deletion of indexes virtually.

This enables a query to be explained with the virtual change.

• 10 other EXPLAIN Tables The additional tables support Explain statements from the

dynamic statement cache, sort operations or other Explain details.

Managing Change: Statistics and System Changes

• DB2 V9 Enhancements that require rebinds: Puffing of the runtime structures – especially with

RELEASE(COMMIT) Required to reestablish SPROCs (with no rebind a 0-10%

performance penalty ) Virtual Storage Constraint Relief Global Query Optimization Sort Avoidance with Distinct and

Group By

• Managing Rebinds During Upgrades Wait until the upgrade is stabilized Rebind the safe and improved packages with PLANMGMT Execute RUNSTATS – focus on heavily used objects, watch

for changes in CLUSTERRATIOF, use “_HIST” tables Check Access Path Changes with new statistics Rebind Previously Untouched Packages Rebind packages bound before new statistics were

collected

PERFORMANCE

Managing Change: Application changes• New/Changed Packages

New programs Require top down review Changed Programs – look for new objects and/or access path changes

Plan Stability DB2 V9

• Provides a backup of a access path that can be used for fallback

• Enabled Globally with ZPARM PLNMGNT or at bind time with PLNMGNT option. Information Stored in SPT01 and SYSPACKDEP Rebind Switch Each Copy is Separately Invalidated Only Current information is stored in SYSPACKAGE Dependant versions recorded in SYSPACKDEP(DTYPE P,O) Can only replace the entire package How Stale is the Original Copy

• DB2 Hints are still Relevant

Other DB2 V9 Changes

• Virtual Indexes – available via APAR in V8 (PK46687)• Unicode Plan Tables (PK85068)• New Explain Sub-Query Parent Query Block• Visual Explain is Deprecated in DB2 V9• Optimization Service Center (OSC) Deprecated in the

next Release of DB2 • IBM Data Studio is the replacement for OSC

Best Practices

• Explain(YES)

• Regular Review

• Know Your Applications
