1 LOG OVERVIEW

DB2 LOG FUNDAMENTALS

LOG AIM:

The DB2 log has two main functions: to reapply or back out units of recovery, and to rebuild DB2 back to a consistent state in the event of a failure

WHY NEED LOGGING

1. overhead
2. it costs in ters of performance,dasd,dministration,cleanup
3. it's assurance-just in case of an accidentIN PERFECT WORLD
   1. no need to rollback
   2. no need to recover
   3. no program errors
   4. no hardware errors
   5. no power failtures
   6. no hurricances,terror attacks,fraud....

Let’s get the MOST out of the LOG since it’s here

OVERVIEW OF LOG WORK MECHANISM

USAGE OF EACH COMPONENTS

1. Active logs
   Where DB2 puts the current log information
2. Log Buffers
   Where log information is held BEFORE externalisation to DASD
3. Bootstrap Datasets
   These hold information about the current active and archive log datasets
4. Archive logs
   These are copies of ‘old’ active log datasets
5. SYSLGRNX
   DB2 keeps track of WHEN objects are (possibly) being updated

2 UNDERSTANDING OF LOG

LOG IMPLEMENTATION

1 LOG RBA

BYTE ADDRESSABLE(RBA=RELATIVE BYTE ADDRESS)
RBA START=0X00000000000
RBA END=0XFFFFFFFFFFF
RBA UNIQUELY DEFINE A LOG RECORD

2 WHEN DATA SHARING INVOLED-LRSN

LRSN=LOG SEQUENCE RANGE NUMBER,WHICH IS A MODIFIED TIMESTAMP BASE ON SYSPLEX STORCE CLOCK

3 LOG PAGE DATA SETS

LOG OUTPUTBUFFER
ACTIVE LOG
ARCHIVE LOG


WHEN DB2 GO TO THE LAST ACTIVE DATA SETS ,WRAP ROUND TO FIRST ACTIVE LOG DATA SETS

FACTORS OF ACTIVE LOG DATA SETS:

1. ACTIVE LOG DATA SETS NUMBER
2. ACTIVE LOG DATA SETS SIZE
3. SINGLE OR DUAL ACTIVE LOG
4. PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATION:
   1. FAST DASD
   2. CONSIDER STRIPPING
   3. DB2 ZPARM OUTBUFFER LOGAPSTG

BSDS – Boot Strap Data Set

? Name: catalog.BSDS01 and catalog.BSDS02
? Must be two identical datasets
? Contains highest RBA logged
? Contains active log description (begin – end RBA and status)
? Contains archive log description
? Dataset name
? Volume name
? RBA range
? Contains other necessary system information
? System checkpoint history, BP-description, CCSID info etc

SYSLGRNX-DLD

? Table in Directory so no user access available
? Contains the RBA when any tablespace or
partition is opened or closed for update
? Note this information is also in DB2 log
? SYSLGRNGX is used by DB2 to speed up
recovery by limiting the amount of log data which needs to be scanned
? MODIFY utility removes this information along with SYSCOPY rows

SYSLGRNGX is key to speeding up log processing during recovery Contains RBAs when tablespaces are open for update. Log ranges out ranges cannot contain updates for this tablespace and therefore we needed during the recovery process.SYSLGRNGX is also updated by running the Modify Recovery utility 

FACTORS OF ARCHIVE LOG DATASETS

1. ALWAYS PRODUCE TWO FILES FOR ONE ACTIVE LOGS
   IT IS AN ASYNCHRONOUS PROCESS
   VCAT.ARCHLOGN.BNNNNNN

   CONTAINDS THE BSDS INFORMATION BEFORE ARCHIVE IS WRITTEN FIRST LOG BEING ARCHIVED,IS STILL KNOWN AS ACTIVE LOG IN BSDS 

   VCAT.ARCHIVEN.ANNNNNN

   CONTAINS THE ACTUAL LOG FOR LOG RBA RANGE OF THAN LOG DATA SETSUPDATES BSDS WHEN COMPLETE 

2. DB2 ZPARMS ARCHPFX1 ARCHPFX2 TSTAMP=YES|NO|EXT
   VCAT.ARCHIVEN.DXXXXX.TXXXXX.BNNNNNNNN
3. WHEN ARCHIVE:
   ACTIVE LOG FULL
   TRUNCATED:ARCHIVE LOG COMAMND OR ERROR

LOG STRUCTURE

WHAT IS BEING LOGGED?INFORMATION OF UR

1. BEGIN/END UR INFORMATION
2. UNDO/REDO STATEMENTS and compensation log rec
3. commit rollback processing

---

PAGE SET INFORMATION

1. OPEN/CLOSE PAGE SET
2. PENDING STATUS INFORMATION(COPY,CHECK,REORG)
3. START/STOP INFORMATION（include which mode ut）
4. DBD INFORECOVERY INFOMATION FORINVOLED TABLES:

   SYSIBM.SYSUTILX SYSIBM.DBD01 SYSIBM.SYSCOPY 

   SYSTEM CHECKPOINTSUNDO/REDO LOG EXMPLAE

URID(0006CEA48CC9)RBA OF UR STARTED IN LOG
010C=DBID
0002==PAGE SET OBID
000000 02=PAGE ID

COMPENSATION OF LOG EXMPLE

In case of the example the current value is BBB and after the update it should become AAA, but for some reason a ROLLBACK occurs, in that
case DB2 needs to undo this update. This undo by itself is also being logged. These log records are called compensation log records.

SUBTYPE(UPDATE IN-PLACE IN A DATA PAGE) CLR(YES)*LG** 80010C00 02000000 02000006 CEA550BF AB00 0000 00120101 00030900 000600C2 C2C200C1 C1C1 

CLR(YES) which indicates it is a compensation log record

RECOVERY INFORMATION EXAMPLE

DB2 writes “syscopy” information for certain system tables to the log instead of writing it to syscopy. The reason is simple. In case of a
disaster recovery, we need to recover the system in precise steps.Meaning that certain system tables have to be recovered before we can recover sysibm.syscopy. Therefore the backup information of those objects is written to the log.

SYSTEM CHECKPOINTS DETAIL

SYSTEM CHECKPOINT (snapshot of activity on system)

1. WHAT IS IN SYSTEM CHECKPOINT
   1. Entry per active thread (amongst other status inflight/in commit etc)
   2. Entry per open page set (including exception status)
   3. Page externalization
2. How often should one be taken ?
   1. Every 3-5 minutes (many sites are at 15-20 minutes)
   2. CHKFREQ : V9 : # LOG records or # seconds

       V10: Minimum of # LOG records and # seconds 

3. Important for (re)start up performance
   ? Start up ALWAYS from LAST CHECKPOINT

WHEN IS LOGGING

As the work is being done
? In Log output buffer (OUTBUFF)
? Regularly flushed to Active Log Dataset
Sequentially first active copy1 then active copy2 (DB2 V10 应该是双写)

? At Commit
? At Rollback
? Log Write threshold (WRTHRSH 20 pages without commit)
? Archive log command
? System Checkpoint
? Log Write Ahead Force

LOG USAGE

Start DB2

4 phases :

1. Log initialization
   Read/compare BSDS
   Find current active log dataset and end of log
2. Current status rebuild
   Read last system checpoint
3. Forward log recovery
   Do all work for INCOMMIT and INDOUBT threads
4. Backward log recovery
   Do all work for INABORT and INFLIGHT threads
5. ALWAYS start from LAST SYSTEM CHECKPOINT
   Amount of work varies (ab)normal shutdowN

Recovery of objects

DB2 新增了一个参数BACKOUT(YES),这个参数应该不是太常用，更多的情况应该是使用imgcopy+log的方式去追，即point-in-time,这里不进行介绍。

REPLICATION

It is a very popular topic in IDC now. It is the basis for realizing double-active or multi-active. It is also implemented in platform version of DBMS, such as mysql’s mater-slave method, which is supported by mysql itself and does not need to be added. Software, but it is processed by a single thread. For this reason, many vendors provide enhanced versions to support concurrency on the slave. QREP MQ is implemented on zos, supporting heterogeneous databases, and the delay can be controlled within minutes. RPT=2MIN, RTO=2HOUR,

SOX Compliance

This is more for internal audit and external audit. Relatively speaking, the cost of using the audit LOG method is relatively high, and there are alternative software.

HEALTH CHECKS

BEST PRACTICE, based on the current operation of the system, check whether the ACTIVE LOG and ACHIVE LOG are running abnormally.

LOG UTILITES, WORKING WITH THE LOG

How many sentences? This should be something that is lacking in the current platform. It may still exist, but I am ignorant.

DSN1LOGP

? Formats DB2 log in a readable output
? Detailed or summarized (SUMMARY(YES/NO/ONLY)
? Include page set status (DATAONLY(YES/NO)
? Include SYSCOPY info (SYSCOPY(YES/NO)
? Limit range (from – to)
? Limit scope (e.g. URID,DBID,)
? Cannot read current active log
? Cannot read compressed logs by DFSMS

DSNJU004, DSNJU003DSNJU004

Will list certain parts of the BSDS information
? Log data set name(s), log ranges, volume(s) etc
? Active log status
? Conditional restart history
? System checkpoint history
? Backup system history
? Archive log history
? CCSID information
? Does not show Buffer pool configuration
? Be careful time values ​​are in GMT except LTIME column

DSNJU003 (a.k.a Change Log Inventory)

? Only runs when DB2 is down
? Allows to change BSDS content, USE WITH CARE!
? Add/Delete active and archive Logs
? Add/Delete system checkpoints
? Create conditional restart record (CRESTART)
? STARTRBA
? ENDRBA
? COLD START ? STARTRBA=ENDRBA
? LOSS

DSNJLOGF

DSNJLOGF
? Pre-formats new active log dataset
? Avoids delay at first use !!

RECOVER BSDS#RECOVER BSDS

? MUST have TWO identical BSDS to start up
? What if one BSDS is broken ?
? DSNJ126I I/O ERROR FORCED SINGLE BSDS
? Do NOT stop DB2
? Issue command –RECOVER BSDS ? automate this!
? What if one BSDS is broken at start up?
? DB2 does not start
? IDCAMS rename/define, REPRO

LOG RELATED DATASET

LOG PAGE FORMAT

I have a perceptual understanding of LOG PAGE. The logical structure of LOG is complicated. I will add it later if necessary.
1 BYTE=8BITS
1 NIBBLE=4BITS
LOG PAGE SIZE=4KB
LOG PAGE AVAIABLE SPACE=4075
LOG PAGE CONTROL INTERVAL
SIZE: LAST 21/X'15' BYTE OF PAGE
USAGE:CI DESCRIBE THE LOG PAGE
START RAB OF THE PAGE
LOG RBA DO NOT HAVE RBA-----IT'S START RBA of the page plus offset into page of the record
1 log rec maybe span may log pages
