Data generated by unit of work event monitors

Unit of work event monitors produce data about units of work (transactions) that run in the system. You can choose to have the output from a unit of work event monitor to regular tables, or to an unformatted event (UE) table. If data is written to a UE table, you must perform post-processing on it to view the data.

Regardless of the output format you choose, unit of work event data comes from one of four logical groups:

uow
uow_metrics
uow_package_list
uow_exec_list

If you choose to have the unit of work event data written to regular tables, data from an additional group (CONTROL) is used to generate meta-data about the event monitor itself.

Note: Unless you specify otherwise, the only monitor elements collected by a unit of work event monitor are request metrics. To enable the generation of basic unit of work event data, or for package or execution list data, you must enable data collection explicitly. See Enabling event monitor data collection for more information.
