Processing Statistics

PhixFlow generates processing statistics which are saved to the database. These statics are for use by administrators and designers who are tuning for performance.

See System Configuration for how to enable and manage stats generation.

Processing Statistics

The following statistics are currently recorded and available as data records in the STATS table. (See STATS record definition)

Activity Statistics

Activity Statistics are recorded from TaskPlans executed, Actions triggered.

Database Statistics Record Structure

The table structure for STATS is as follows:

Member
Class
Description
stats_typeenum

Statistics Type:

E.g. 'Activity, Pipe, PipeLookup, PipeQueue, Stream'

fromDtmDatetimeThe start time of the period that this measure refers to
toDtmDatetimeThe end time of the period that this measure refers to
initiator_typeString

The object initiating the activity - eg. "TaskPlan", or "Action"

initiator_idUidThe ID of the initiating TaskPlan or Action / other object.
initiator_nameString

The name of the initiating TaskPlan or Action / other object.

context_typeStringThe activity triggered by the initiator. eg "Stream"
context_idUid

e.g. The "Streams" ID that Analysis was run on.

context_nameStringeg. The name of the stream that Analysis was run on.`
full_contextString

This a dotted notation indicating the full context.

eg. TaskPlan1.Stream X.in

data_typeStringThe type of statistics data being recorded for this stats type. Eg. totalRecordsWritten, totalWriteTime.
data_valueDouble

The value of the statistic being recorded for the given data_type.

fromDtm and toDtm dates can be identical on a record

They are not the same as the fromDTM and toDTM datetimes on streamsets - they give the start and end times for a stats logging window. The duration of the stats logging window is set in the system configuration.

  • fromDtm is when the monitor is opened.
  • toDtm is when the statistic is recorded/written to the stats table.

If a task finishes inside of a stats logging window, then the datetimes will be the same.
