Schema Modifications:
No changes were made to the benchmark schema.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Load Program Modifications:
No changes were made to the load program.
BENCHMARK CONFIGURATION INFORMATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Isolation Requirement Info:
The following beans: PartEnt, ComponentEnt, AssemblyEnt, BomEnt and
LargeOrderEnt in the Manufacturing Domain, ItemEnt in the Orders Domain,
and SupplierCompEnt and SupplierEnt in the Supplier Domain were
accessed using READ_COMMITTED which is Cursor Stability (CS) for DB2.
The remaining beans were accessed using REPEATABLE_READ which
translates to DB2 isolation level of Read Stability (RS).
The ItemEnt bean was cached for 20 minute intervals using the WebSphere
Lifetime in Cache Mechanism. Only the data inside the bean was cached.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Durability Requirement Info:
To ensure database durability, RAID5 was used for the database logs
maintained on the external storage. The log device contains two
5+P arrays. A total of 12 x 36GB disks were used for the log.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Storage Requirement Info:
Over the course of a 75 minute run at an injection rate of 371, the
database storage for database system increased by 283 MB. Given a
linear scale, a 24 hour run at the same injection rate would increase
storage for database system by 5433.6 MB. Two RAID1 disk arrays were
used to create the filesystem space for the database. Each array
contained 8 x 36GB disks providing 131.6GB of storage. The combined
storage available for the database was 263GB.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Argument Passing Semantics:
WebSphere Application Server V6.1 uses pass-by-value semantics by default.

OTHER BENCHMARK INFORMATION

The switch ports and all network adapters are 1Gb/sec.
This submission used the xerces implementation (version - XML4J 4.3) provided
with WebSphere Application Server V6.1 in the IBM 1.5.0 JDK.

General Notes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The only errors in the driver log files were those that are normally generated by this benchmark.
The IBM DB2 Universal JDBC Drivers is a type 4 driver.
DB2 uses "Soft" checkpoint to ensure that no updates remain unflushed for
longer than the allowed time.
When DB2 UDB Server changes a database table with an update, insert, or delete
operation, the change is initially made in memory, not on disk. When there is
not enough space in the memory buffer to read in or write additional data pages,
DB2 UDB Server will make space by flushing some modified pages to disk.
Modified pages are also written to disk as part of the "Soft" checkpoint to
ensure that no updates remain unflushed for longer than the allowed time.
Before a change is made to the database, it is first recorded in the
transaction log. This ensures that the database can be recovered completely
in the event of a failure. Using the transaction log, transactions that
started but did not complete prior to a failure can be undone, and
transactions recorded as complete in the transaction log but not yet written
to disk can be redone.
DB2 UDB uses a write-ahead-logging protocol to guarantee recovery. This
protocol uses "Soft" checkpoint to write least-recently-used database pages
to disk independent of transaction commit. However, enough log information to
redo/undo the change to a database pages is committed to disk before the
database page itself is written. This protocol therefore renders checkpoint
unnecessary for DB2 UDB. For a more detailed description of the general
principles of the write-ahead-logging protocol, see the IBM research paper,
ARIES: A Transaction Recovery Method Supporting Fine Granularity Locking and
Partial Rollbacks Using Write-Ahead Logging," by C. Mohan, Database Technology
Institute, IBM Almaden Research Center. (http:// portal.acm.org/citation.cfm
?id=128770&coll=portal&dl=ACM&CFID=10343790&CFTOKEN=42047146)
1-phase transactions were used to coordinate the interaction between the database
server and JMS servers.
