NEW: CA Log Analyzer Gains I/O Saving Option

By Jakub Hofman posted 15 days ago
Be the first person to recommend this.
We are pleased to announce that we released new Bypass Extract feature in CA Log Analyzer for Db2 for z/OS (PLA) that lets you avoid this unnecessary reading and writing. Thus, you save I/O operations, CPU, and Elapsed Time. PLA uses the extract file to store filtered data from the Db2 log. The extract file is a pair of datasets. You can use permanent datasets to generate different reports over the same log range or for future auditing purposes (the extract file is much smaller than Db2 log, since it contains required log data only). Often, you do not need the extract file and you are using temporal datasets. But PLA still writes all the filtered data into the ...
