Exp SQL Due To Program Buffer

The document discusses buffer settings on two application servers, SAPAPP01 and SAPAPP02, that are experiencing high daily swaps. It recommends adjusting various buffer parameters, such as the program buffer size, CUA buffer size, and table buffer area size, to reduce swaps and improve database performance based on the servers' current settings and default values.

The following statement causes the most load on the system.

I believe this statement is related to the


amount of swaps in the program buffer of the two application servers. There are over 99000 swaps in
the program buffer on SAPAPP02 daily and over 117000 swaps on SAPAPP01 daily. Implementing the
buffer recommendations listed below should reduce the load caused by this statement and improve the
overall database performance of SH6.

Recommendation: Implement the buffer settings recommended below (after testing on your test system)
then monitor swapping in the program buffers to see if further increases are necessary.

SELECT "LDATA" AS c
FROM "REPOLOAD"
WHERE "PROGNAME" = @P1 AND "R3STATE" = @P2 AND "MACH" = @P3
/* R3:KRN:0 T:REPOLOAD */

(@P1 varchar(40),@P2 varchar(1),@P3 smallint)SELECT "LDATA" AS c FROM "REPOLOAD" WHERE


"PROGNAME" = @P1 AND "R3STATE" = @P2 AND "MACH" = @P3
/* R3:KRN:0 T:REPOLOAD */

If a program buffer of more than 150 MB is allocated, defective basis addresses of NT System DLLs may
fragment the address space of work processes. The large shared memory segments (such as PXA and
extended memory) may not be created because the free address space available is fragmented by these
DLLs. This may lead to a start with the PXA buffer of 4 MB and consequently to
PXA_NO_SHARED_MEMORY errors. If these errors occur, see SAP Note 129813.
