Monitoring sbspaces with oncheck -pS

The oncheck -pS option displays information about smart-large-object extents and metadata areas in sbspace partitions. If you do not specify an sbspace name on the command line, oncheck checks and displays the metadata for all sbspaces.

oncheck -pS output shows an example of the -pS output for s9_sbspc.

To display information about smart large objects, execute the following command:
oncheck -pS spacename
The oncheck -pS output displays the following information for each smart large object in the sbspace:
  • Space chunk page
  • Size in bytes of each smart large object
  • Object ID that DataBlade® API and functions use
  • Storage characteristics of each smart large object
When you use onspaces -c -S to create an sbspace, you can use the -Df option to specify various storage characteristics for the smart large objects. You can use onspaces -ch to change attributes after the sbspace is created. The Create Flags field in the oncheck -pS output displays these storage characteristics and other attributes of each smart large object. In oncheck -pS output , the Create Flags field shows LO_LOG because the LOGGING tag was set to ON in the -Df option.
