SAP Note 12184 - Improved performance with 'UPDATE STATISTICS'

Composant : Informix - Database Administration with Informix

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/12184 (Connexion à SAP Service Marketplace requise)

Résumé :
In SAP systems, database performance issues often arise from outdated statistics used by the optimizer to select access paths. Key statistics include the number of data records, index sizes, and data distribution. Regularly updating these statistics is crucial, ideally weekly. For newer releases (from 3.0A), use tools like 'sapdba' accessible via DB13 to schedule updates automatically. Prior releases, such as 2.1H or 2.2B, require manual execution with 'infupdstat'. Verify successful updates through transaction ST04. Ensure configurations are optimal to avoid additional performance problems, and check SAP Note 184760 for solutions if issues arise.
