For many years now IBM have positioned SQL as the primary interface to the database on IBM i. At the same time, new capabilities are being added only to SQL, not to the native database interface. We need a different tool to understand and analyze query implementation plans and feedback from the optimizer – the SQL component that determines the most effective way to deliver the data we ask for in SQL statements. Visual Explain is just such a tool, and it both shows us graphically what plan the optimizer has chosen, as well as tells us details about each step along the way. It can also give us suggestions on ways to improve performance of our queries. With IBM i 7.6, IBM continue to enhance our ability to manage the database effectively.

There has been a request for more tools to help with dealing the IFS. We have been doing a mini series on this topic for the past couple of iSee episodes. This session.. more of the same, but looking to help your understand objects in the IFS that are well known for consuming plenty of storage. Journal Receivers – These are super important, but when left to age, are nothing but a way to waste storage. Within SYSTOOL, there is a new tool that can help you both understand these Journal Receivers and how to get them cleaned up. This iSee will review and demo this new tool.
