Support Article - Investigate ICM Database Query Performance Issues

Introduction

During ICM runtime, ICM triggers a lot of queries to fulfill tasks. Sometimes queries will be slow and there is a need to determine and optimize these.
In the example below, you can see how we determine a slow query by using ICM logging framework for upcoming query optimization tasks.
The query optimization is not part of this document. It is only about determining long or slow running queries and their bind variables.

Steps to Follow

  1. Enable the ICM performance sensors inside the SMC.

  1. This allows you to track performance query values inside the SMC performance views and related share drive debug log files in TRACE mode:

  2. Enable debug log scope trace for package.


As result the related share drive debug log will describe your suspect query with bind variables and runtime details.

Examples

In this example ICM executed a query with bind variables to determine results from "GetTargetCustomers".


Log output from the query, which is triggered:

)

Note:

Please pay attention to the same request ID to combine and understand these two log information. They belong together.

At this point, you know the query "GetTargetCustomers" with bind variables XCsKABE2XSYAAAFxyXUYJOVE and CatalogFilter_w4MKAP8gw1EAAAGCazxZQCV consumes 13ms total runtime.

 
 
If you know the bind variables from a suspect long running query, a database administrator create/analyze an execution plan from it to optimize the query (possibly add an index or rework query).
In case of query rework, it is very important that the records still return the expected results.
