The Objects Activity Analysis Dashboard v8

The Objects Activity Analysis dashboard provides an overview of the size and activity of the objects that reside within the selected database.

Use parameters on the PEM Server Configurations dialog to specify the auto-refresh rate for the dashboard. To access the Server Configuration dialog, select Server Configuration... from the PEM web interface Management menu.

The Objects Activity Analysis dashboard header displays the date and time that the server started, the date and time that the Object Activity Analysis dashboard was last updated, and the number of alerts currently triggered for the specified database (and monitored objects that reside within that database).

The bar graphs in the Size Overview section plot the comparative sizes of the 5 largest tables and indexes that reside within the selected database:

• The Top 5 Largest Tables bar graph represents the comparative sizes of the 5 largest tables that reside in the database; a vertical key displays the table size in megabytes.
• The Top 5 Largest Indexes bar graph represents the comparative sizes of the 5 largest indexes that reside in the database; a vertical key displays the index size in megabytes.

The Objects Activity table provides a detailed analysis of the activity for each table that resides within the database. Click a column heading to sort the table by the values within the column; click again to reverse the sort order.
