Salvage files are automatically purged if the user deletes another file or creates a new file.  If you are very short on disk space, this option allows you to throw away all salvage files being kept by the operating system.

     This list shows all physical record locks that the selected connection has on this file.  A physical record lock can prevent any other station from accessing or changing a range of bytes in the file.  Unlike the logical record locks, the physical record lock is enforced without the cooperation of other stations.  If another station attempts to access a range of bytes that is physically locked they will get an access denied error.
     The list of physical records is updated automatically every two seconds.

     If a record is logged, that means the station has included it in a list of records that it will want to lock as a set.  Locking a group of records as a set avoids deadlock with other stations that may be trying to lock the same records.  If the record is locked shareable, that means that other stations may also lock the record shareable, but no other station can lock the record exclusively.  The shareable mode is most often used when reading data that another station should not change.  If the record is locked exclusively then no other station can lock the record.  The exclusive mode is used most often when the station is changing data and no other station should be reading or writing the data.  If data is being updated in a file that is "transaction tracked" then the file server will hold exclusive locks until the entire transaction has been completed.  This allows the transaction to be backed out cleanly in the event that a workstation, the network, or the file server fail during the transaction.

     This screen shows all logical record locks being used by the selected connection.  Logical record locks are used by programs to control the access of multiple users to data.  Logical record locks limit access to data by "convention".  That is to say that a program assigns a name to each section of data that needs to be locked.  The database program then locks this name whenever it accesses the data.  If the program attempts to lock the name and it fails because another station already has the name locked, then it knows that it must wait for the other user to finish.  This means that the program could access the data even if the name was already locked, the locking is enforced only to the extent that the program checks the name each time it needs to access the data.

     This list shows all semaphores that are being used by the selected connection.  Semaphores are used for two purposes.  The first is to limit how many tasks can be using (or changing) a resource at the same time.  When a task uses a semaphore to ask for the use of a resource (a resource could be anything that the programmer needs to limit the use of) then several things can occur.  If the resource is available the task is allowed to proceed.  If the resouce is not available the task if forced to wait until it becomes available, or the maximum time the task agreed to wait is reached.  If the resouce is still not available after the task has waited, an error is returned indicating it is not available.
     The second use of semaphores is to limit the number of workstations that can run a program at the same time.  This is a form of copy protection.  In this case, each workstation where the program is run opens a semaphore and checks the open count to see if it is greater than the maximum number of stations that are allowed to use the program.  If the

open count is not greater than the limit then the program continues.  If it is greater then the program prints a message indicating that the maximum number of users licenced to use that program are already using it and someone must exit before the program can be run.  The program then terminates.
     The following information is shown for each semaphore:  The semaphore name, what task on this connection has the semaphore open, the total number of connections/tasks that have this semaphore open, the current value of the semaphore.  If the value is a positive number it indicates how many resources are currently available.  If it is 0 it means no resources are available and no stations are waiting for it.  If it is a negative value it is the number of stations that are waiting for the resource being limited by this semaphore.

     This list shows all physical record locks that any connections have on this file.  A physical record lock can prevent any other station from accessing or changing a range of bytes in the file.  Unlike the logical record locks, the physical record lock is enforced without the cooperation of other stations.  If another station attempts to access a range of bytes that is physically locked they will get an access denied error.
     The list of physical records is updated automatically every two seconds.

                                               Page 1 of 3∙─σ┐	><                PHYSICAL RECORD LOCKS HELP

     For each physical record lock, the following information is displayed:  The byte range that is being locked (in hex), the number of connections that are using this byte range, the lock status of the byte range.  If the physical record is locked exclusively, the connection and task that have it locked will be displayed.  If the physical record is locked shareable the number of connections that have it locked will be displayed.  If no lock information is shown then the physical record is logged but not locked by any connection.

                                              Page 2 of 3b┬JHr                     PHYSICAL RECORD LOCKS HELP

     If a record is logged, that means the station has included it in a list of records that it will want to lock as a set.  Locking a group of records as a set avoids deadlock with other stations that may be trying to lock the same records.  If the record is locked shareable, that means that other stations may also lock the record shareable, but no other station can lock the record exclusively.  The shareable mode is most often used when reading data that another station should not change.  If the record is locked exclusively then no other station can lock the record.  The exclusive mode is used most often when the station is changing data and no other station should be reading or writing the data.  If data is being updated in a file that is "transaction tracked" then the file server will hold exclusive locks until the entire transaction has been completed.  This allows the transaction to be backed out cleanly in the event that a workstation, the network, or the file server fail during the transaction.

                                                          Page 3 of 3ñ═LJ	                       CURRENT TRANSACTIONS HELP

     This display shows the transactions that are currently being tracked by the transaction tracking system.  Transaction can occur in two ways.  First, the program at the workstation can explicitly tell the file server that it is starting a transaction and then tell it that it has finished the transaction.  Second, the file server can be set to implicitly determine that a transaction has been started by the workstation when it does a physical or logical record lock, and the it has finished when the record locks are released.  The second method allows programs that were not written with transaction tracking calls to be run on a transaction tracking server.  Because there are programs that keep some records locked all the time, a threshold can be set to specify what physical record lock or what logical record lock should cause the file server to implicitly assume that a transaction is in progress.

                                                            Page 1 of 4▓╨â╔DB÷                    CURRENT TRANSACTIONS HELP

     The transaction tracking system will track all changes that are made to files that are flagged as transactional files.  The original data and the new data are remembered until the entire transaction has been completed and all changes have been successfully written to the disk.  If the workstation, network or file server fail for any reason before all changes made during the transaction have been written to the disk then the file server will backout the transaction.  When a transaction is backed out, all the original data is restored.  This prevents database files from becomming corrupted by updates that were only partially completed.

POSITIVE ACKNOWLEDGES SENT
     This entry shows the number of positive acknowledge packets the
     file server has sent to workstations.  When the file server is
     processing a request that takes a long time and the workstation
     reissues the request, the file server will send a positive
     acknowledgment packet to the workstation.  This packet is not the
     reply to the request, but it lets the workstation know that the
     request was received, and that the file server is busy processing
     the request.

SFT SUPPORT LEVEL
     This is the level of system fault tolerance that the file server

     information stored on each disk.  Level 1 has the features of 
     Level 0 plus the ability to redirect bad blocks on the disk during
     normal file server operation.  This means if a area on the disk
     goes bad, the file server will automatically move the data to
     another area on the disk without any need for user intervention.
     Level 2 has all the features of Levels 0 and 1 plus it allows for
     mirroring of disk drives.  Mirroring means that the data stored on
     one disk drive is also stored on another disk drive.  If one of
     the drives fail, the file server can continue uninterrupted using
     the remaining drive, this is invisible to the user and no data is
     lost.

     drive on another channel, the file server can service some
     requests for the data on that drive at the same time that it

LOGICAL DISK TO PHYSICAL DISK MAPPINGS (continued)
     When a mirror drive is DISABLED, and the reason for failure has
     been corrected, it is possible to remirror the drive without
     taking the file server down (unless the disk channel has failed).
     The drive can be remirrored from the main file server console
     using the command "REMIRROR <drive number>".  While a drive is
     being remirrored its status will show as REMIRRORING.  In addition
     the line LOGICAL DISK TO PHYSICAL DISK MAPPINGS will be replaced
     with information about the progress the drive being remirrored.

LOGICAL DISK TO PHYSICAL DISK MAPPINGS (continued)
  The remirror progress line can show the following information:
     INITIALIZING REMIRROR FOR DISK <disk number>
          This means that the file server is checking for information
          that needs to be copied from the primary disk drive to the
          mirror disk drive in order to bring the mirror disk back up
          to date.  If the mirror drive was disabled before the file
          server was brought up then the file server will copy all data
          stored on the primary drive to the mirror drive.  If the
          mirror drive failed after the file server was brought up,
          then the file server has tracked all information that was
          updated on the primary drive that was not updated on the
          mirror drive.  In this case only the information that has
          changed since the mirror drive failed will be updated.

VOLUME DISMOUNTED
     This volume has been dismounted by the file server because the
     disk drive where this volume was located failed.  If a volume is
     removable, it can also be dismounted if the operator issues a
     DISMOUNT command from the file server console.  If a volume is

     This is the number of cache buffers in the file server.  This number
     is directly affected by the amount of memory in the file server.
     This number can be changed by adding of removing memory from the
     file server.  Each additional cache buffer that the file server has
     increases the probability that requested disk information is already
     in memory and does not need to be read from the disk.  The CACHE
     HITS and CACHE MISSES entries show how many times requested
     information was in memory verses the times that it had to be read
     from the disk.

CACHE BUFFER SIZE
     This shows the size of each cache buffer in bytes.  Generally a
     large cache buffer size (4,096 bytes) will provide better
     performance than a small size.

DIRTY CACHE BUFFERS
     This count shows how many cache buffers have updated information
     that needs to be written out to the disk.  When a workstation writes
     information, that information is stored in a cache buffer and the
     workstation is allowed to proceed immediately.  The file server will
     write this information to the disk in the background.

FULL WRITE REQUESTS
     This is a count of the number of times that the cache software was
     asked to write data to the disk and the data exactly filled one or
     more sectors (a sector is 512 bytes).  The cache software was able
     to place the data in a cache buffer without pre-reading the data
     that was previously in the disk block.

PARTIAL WRITE REQUESTS
     This is a count of the number of times the cache software was asked
     to write data, and the data did not entirely fill a sector.  The
     cache software was forced to get the original data into a cache
     buffer before it could write the new data to the cache buffer.

     new data was written to the disk.  As soon as a cache block is
     filled with new data it is written to the disk.

BACKGROUND AGED WRITES
     This is a count of the number of times that a cache block that is
     only partially filled with new data was written to the disk.  Only
     part of the block had been filled with new data, but the block
     was dirty (had new data that needed written to the disk) for 3
     seconds.

CACHE ALLOCATIONS
     This entry show the count of how many times a new cache buffer has
     been allocated.  When the requested disk block is not cached in
     the server memory, a new cache buffer will be allocated.  This
     count only includes allocation of cache buffers that were not
     dirty.  The case where the cache buffer that was to be allocated
     contained data that needed to be written to the disk is shown in
     the LRU BLOCK WAS DIRTY count.

THRASHING COUNT
     This count shows the number of times that no cache block was
     available when a new cache block needed to be allocated.  All
     cache blocks were marked as in use by some part of the OS.  This
     situation will only occur if the file server is very short on
     cache blocks.  If this occurs, the file server performance is
     seriously degraded.  You should consider adding additional memory
     to the server in order to increase the number of cache buffers.

LRU BLOCK WAS DIRTY
     This is a count of the number of times that a requested disk block
     was not in memory and the block that was allocated contained new
     data that had not yet been written to the disk.  In this case the
     data must be written to the disk before the block can be
     allocated.  Other allocations are shown in CACHE ALLOCATIONS.

READ BEYOND WRITE
     This count shows the number of times that a read request asked for
     data in an allocated cache block, but the data had not yet been
     read from the disk.  This situation occurs when a cache block is
     being filled with new data by cache write requests and then a
     cache read request asks for data beyond the end of where the new
     data has been written.  In this case the needed data is read from
     the disk.

FRAGMENTED WRITES
     This count shows the number of times that a dirty cache buffer
     had to be written to the disk with several write requests.  This
     situation occurs when new data is written to a cache buffer that
     fills some of the sectors completely, but does not fill the entire
     cache buffer.  Each group of sectors is written separately.

HIT ON UNAVAILABLE BLOCK
     This count shows the number of times that the requested disk block
     was cached in memory but was not available because it was being
     read in from disk, or written to disk.  In this case the
     requesting process must wait until the disk service has completed.

CACHE BLOCKS SCRAPPED
     This count shows the number of times that a cache buffer that was
     being allocated was scrapped.  This occurs under the following
     scenario:  A request causes a new cache buffer to be allocated,
     the new cache buffer contained dirty data that needed to be
     written to the disk, the requestor gets put to sleep waiting for
     the cache buffer to be written, while the requestor is asleep,
     another process allocates a cache buffer for the same disk block
     as the first requestor, when the first requestor wakes up, he no
     longer needs the cache block he was allocating.

     This display shows information about the transaction tracking system.  The transaction tracking system will track all changes that are made to files that are flagged as transactional files.  The original data and the new data are remembered until the entire transaction has been completed and all changes have been successfully written to the disk.  If the workstation, network or file server fail for any reason before all changes made during the transaction have been written to the disk then the file server will backout the transaction.  When a transaction is backed out, all the original data is restored.  This prevents database files from becomming corrupted by updates that were only partially completed.  The information on this screen is updated once a second.

CURRENT TRANSACTIONS
     This entry shows the number of transactions that are currently
     being tracked by the transaction tracking system.Transaction can
     occur in two ways.  First, the program at the workstation can
     explicitly tell the file server that it is starting a transaction
     and then tell it that it has finished the transaction.  Second,
     the file server can be set to implicitly determine that a
     transaction has been started by the workstation when it does a
     physical or logical record lock, and the it has finished when the
     record locks are released.  The second method allows programs that
     were not written with transaction tracking calls to be run on a
     transaction tracking server.  Because there are programs that keep
     some records locked all the time, a threshold can be set to
     specify what physical record lock or what logical record lock
     should cause the file server to implicitly assume that a
     transaction is in progress.
