Monitoring query execution in XPS with onstat
When a query is running in a database system like XPS, it is important to monitor what the query is doing. This article will show how the onstat commands -g xmp, xqp and xqs can be used to answer questions such as: Which query plan is used?; How many rows have already been scanned, joined, or inserted?; Is the query running completely in memory, or are some operations overflowing to disk? This information should be useful to database developers and administrators.

A technique for monitoring the warehouse population process
A warehouse administrator relies upon warehouse monitoring capabilities to check and be informed about the status or "health" of the warehouse. To this effect, DB2 Warehouse Manager provides the WIP, or "Work in Progress". In this paper, we show how the WIP capabilities can be extended to keep the past history of the WIP, and to gather additional changes in step status. We also provide sample queries that the warehouse administrator can use to check the history of the warehouse population process.

Migrating from Oracle 10g to IBM Informix Dynamic Server on Linux, Unix, and Windows
We discuss considerations, and describe a methodology, for migrating from Oracle 10g to the Informix Dynamic Server (IDS). We focus primarily on the basic topic areas of data, applications, and administration, providing information about the differences in features and functionality in areas such as data types, DML, DDL, and Stored Procedures.
Understanding the features and functionality of the two products will better enable your decisions as you develop your migration plan. We provide a migration methodology and discuss the processes for installing and using the IBM Migration Toolkit (MTK) to migrate the database objects and data from Oracle to IDS. We also illustrate, with examples, how to convert stored procedures, functions, and triggers. Application programming and conversion considerations are also discussed. The laboratory examples are performed under Oracle 10g and IDS Version 11.5. However, the processes and examples can also be applied to Oracle 7, 8, and 9i.
