Problem analysis for a distributed relational database
You need to manage problem analysis in a distributed database environment. Problem analysis involves both identifying and resolving problems for applications that are processed across a network of systems.
Consider the following items:
- Distributed database processing problems manifest themselves in various ways. For example, an error return code might be passed to a distributed database application by the system that detects the problem. In addition, responses might be slow, wrong, or nonexistent.
- Tools are available to diagnose distributed database processing problems. For example, each distributed relational database product provides trace functions that can help diagnose distributed data processing problems.
- When the i5/OS® operating system detects system failures, it logs information about program status immediately after the failure is detected.
