Introduction Journal Analysis and Optimization • Journaling Uses and Benefits • Understanding Costs and Implications • Ongoing Management and Administration
Journaling Uses and Benefits • High Availability • Data Warehousing • Commitment Control • Security and Data Auditing • Application Debugging • Troubleshooting
High Availability • Data Replication Requirements • Additional System(s) Impact • “Real-Time” Replication • Remote Journaling • Increased Network Traffic • Quality Assurance & Testing
Data Warehousing • “Offloading” Workload • Data Transformation • Moving versus Solving Issues • End-User Queries • SQL Performance Analysis • Duplicate Data – Integrity!
Commitment Control • Appropriate Journaling Needs • COMMIT and ROLLBACK • Performance Implications • Added Controls & Integrity • Costs versus Benefits • Impact on Data Replication
Security and Data Auditing • Native File System • Integrated File System • Impact of Temporary Objects • Application - Opens/Closes • Security Audit Journal (QAUDJRN) • Impact on Object Replication
Application Debugging • Data Integrity Issues • Application Performance • Adds, Updates, Deletes • Opens, Closes • Temporary Objects • “Real-Time” Information
Troubleshooting • Application Issues • Systems Management • Performance Analysis • Security Concerns • Disaster Recovery • System Availability Issues
Understanding Costs and Implications • Performance Implications • Hardware Upgrade Costs • Data Integrity • System Availability • Security Risks • Real-Time Visibility
Performance Implications • Nightly Processing Window • Month-End Closing Cycle • Interactive Response Time • End-User Query Needs • “Real-Time” Data Replication • DASD, CPU, I/O, Memory…
Hardware Upgrade Costs • Appropriate Upgrades • Optimization Costs/Benefits • Hardware Costs/Benefits • I/O Bound Systems • Better Systems Management • Simple Application Changes
Data Integrity • Business Impact Analysis • Difficult to Identify/Solve • End-User Confidence • Performance Implications • End-User Queries • Analysts Time and Effort
System Availability • Day-to-Day System Uptime • Recovery Time After Failure • Weekly Processing Window • Month-End Downtime • 24x7 System Availability • Proven, True, Hot Backup!
Security Risks • Basic System Auditing • Data Access and Auditing • Public versus Private Network • Reasonable Security Levels • Proactive versus Reactive • Auditing – Part of Solution
Real-Time Visibility • A “Real-Time” World • Competitive Advantage • Data Synchronization Wows • Responsive to Customers • Functionality and Accuracy • Truly Integrated Systems
Ongoing Management and Administration • DASD Requirements • System Backups & Recovery • Appropriate Journaling • Journal Receiver Retention • Error Detection & Recovery • Performance Analysis
DASD Requirements • Disk Storage Impact • Disk Arm Activity • I/O Bound Systems • Multiple ASPs • Memory Utilization/Faulting • CPU Under-Utilized
System Backups & Recovery • Resulting Downtime • Reasonable Protections • Performance Analyze Backups • Backup to Disk, Disk to Tape • Multi-threaded Backups • Proven Recovery Procedures
Appropriate Journaling • 50 to 80 Percent Waste! • Temporary Objects (Native/IFS) • Application Changes • Whole System versus Selective • Entire Data Libraries • Work Files and User Spaces
Journal Receiver Retention • Reasonable Choices • Analyze Before Deleting • Prevent Transactions • Simple Application Changes • Systems Management Options • Learn from History!
Error Detection & Recovery • Journaling Omissions • Tested Backup/Recovery • Application/Data Integrity • Security Breaches • System Failures • Proven Recovery Process
Performance Analysis • Journal Transaction Analysis • Application Optimization • Query & SQL Tuning • Disk Space Management • Disk Activity Monitoring • Performance Improvement!
