RMS Tuning Cycle

August 6, 2008 in RMS | No comments

This clip shows a brief overview of the RMS (Record Management System) tuning cycle. This essentially allows the users to gather information as they use the RMS file. Then based on the information gathered from the file, the RMS file user can adjust the tuning of the RMS parameters and generate a more effective RMS file structure.

Figure 10-8 RMS Tuning Cycle

Figure 10-7 Structure of Alternate Records

Example 10-7 shows an examination of an alternate record.

You can use the Analyze/RMS_File utility to create an FDL file
generally called an analysis file. FDL files created by
ANALYZE/RMS_FILE contain statistics about each area and key in the
primary sections named ANALYSIS_OF_AREA and ANALYSIS_OF_KEY.

These analysis sections are then used by the Edit/FDL utility in its
Optimize script. You can compare the statistics in these sections with
your assumptions about the file’s use; you may find some places in the
file’s structure where additional tuning will be possible.
