The functions of the Info menu can be used to retrieve information about the caches, logical and physical I/O, locking states of database objects, database connections, the state of the log and of the logging processes, the states of database processes, conflicting shared memory segments, main memory usage, the command or system profile as well as the version identification of ADABAS.
In the display screen, it is possible to page down using the Next menu function and to page up using the Previous menu function. The End menu function closes the display screen, returning to the main screen of CONTROL.
In some info screens, it is possible to display the sizes in the corresponding format by using the In Pages or In KB menu function. This setting is then also valid for the main screen until it is reset by activating the other menu function.
To interpret this information, an understanding of parts of the ADABAS implementation is required. Such an understanding may be obtained from the training program for ADABAS Database Administration. A detailed interpretation of these outputs is usually only needed for support purposes.
