Definition

In normal operation this figure should be zero. This figure corresponds to the 'Aborting Long Transaction: tx ...' entries in the database message log. The transaction spans the log space specified by transaction high-water mark (LTXHWM), and the offending long transaction is rolling back.

There are several causes possible:

  • A program performs massive data changes (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) with too less COMMITs.
    => Revise program.
  • There is too much concurrent database activty or too less logical log space.
    => Increase logical log space.
  • ONCONFIG-Parameters LTXHWM and LTXEHWM were reduced without adapting logical log space.
    => Increase logical log space.
