The available fields in a DBQLogTbl row are listed in the following table.

DBC.DBQLogTbl Field Description
AbortFlag If the query being logged was aborted, the collected data could be incomplete.
A query consisting of a multistatement or iterated request with simple INSERT statements can be successful and yet have statement errors, as indicated by the ErrorCode column.
AcctString The account string at the time the row was committed. Because accounts can be changed dynamically at the query or session level, this may not be the same account that:
  • DBQL verified for the user at logon time
  • Was in effect when processing of the query began
AcctStringDate Value of the expanded &D ASE code in the account string. If none exists, the value is denoted with a “?” and is null.

Even if ASE truncates the expanded account string, DBQL will report the full value. For example, if &D is expanded into position 26 or higher in the account definition and truncation occurs, DBQL will still report the entire value of the date in the AcctStringDate field.
AcctStringHour Value of the expanded &H ASE code in the account string. If none exists, the value is denoted with a “?” and is null.
AcctStringTime Value of the expanded &T ASE code in the account string. If none exists, the value is denoted with a “?” and is null.

Even if ASE truncates the expanded account string, DBQL will report the full value.
AMPCPUTime Total AMP time used for the query in CPU seconds.
The I/O, CPU, and spool usage may not be accurate for aborted queries.
AMPCPUTimeNorm Normalized AMP CPU seconds for co-existence systems.
AppID Application (executable) or utility name; for example, BTEQ from LogonSource for network clients.
CacheFlag This field is blank if the query is not found in the request cache. It could also be one of the following:
  • “T” if the query plan is generic and in the request cache.
  • “G” if the query plan is generic and not in the request cache but is a candidate for caching in subsequent runs of the same query.
  • “S” if the query plan is specific (either a static or dynamic plan).
  • “A” if a Specific Always decision is taken. That is, for each query USING values are peeked during request parsing. The optimizer may choose a dynamic plan with results feedback.

For more information on specific plans and generic plans, see “Peeking at Parameterized Values in the Data Parcel” in SQL Request and Transaction Processing.
CalendarName The name of the business calendar the session uses. Possible values include ISO, COMPATIBLE, and TERADATA (the default).
CallNestingLevel The level of nesting when running in stored procedures.
CheckpointNum The checkpoint number when loading data into an MLOADX staging table. The default is zero.
ClientAddr The client IP address of the submitted query as obtained from Logonsource from a network client.
ClientID The network client user name under which this session is logged (for example, ADMIN) and the PK/FK for the table.
CollectTimeStamp A date and time unique to each buffer cache, which changes for each new buffer. Part of the multi-column NUPI for the table (see also ProcID).

This time will be set when the cache is ready to receive new data, not when rows are written to the database.

For more information on CollectTimeStamp, see Comparing CollectTimeStamp Value Between Tables.
CPUDecayLevel Contains the most severe decay level reached for CPU usage on any one node for requests using the default Timeshare workload management method. Values are 0, 1, or 2. A value of 0 indicates that the request is running at the default priority. A value of 1 indicates that the priority level is reduced and the resource allotment is halved. A value of 2 indicates that the priority level is reduced again, the resource allotment is halved again, and it will not be reduced more.
DataCollectAlg CPU/IO collection algorithm used by DBQL. Possible values include:
  • 1 = Use the classic algorithm with step adjustments.
  • 2 = Use AMP algorithm 2 (diagnostic only).
  • 3 = Use AMP algorithm 3 (includes information on aborted and parallel steps).
DBQLStatus Internal DBQL logging status. Zero indicates no status conditions. This field is NULL if you are not using DBQL CPU/IO Collection algorithm 3.
DefaultDatabase Name of the default database for the query.
DelayTime The seconds a query was delayed by the Teradata dynamic workload management software.
DisCPUTime Dispatcher CPU time in seconds.
DisCPUTimeNorm Dispatcher normalized CPU time in seconds.
ErrorCode If greater than 0, this field is the number of the error message in ErrorText. This field contains a code if the query caused a Parser syntax error.
ErrorText If not null, this field provides processing errors and Parser errors. For example, the text would explain that the query was not processed due to a Parser syntax error.
EstMaxRowCount The largest number of rows handled by a single step in the query, as estimated by the Optimizer.
EstProcTime Sum of minimum estimated processing time for steps in the query as generated by the Optimizer.
This time is reported in seconds.
EstResultRows Estimated result rows as generated by the Optimizer.
ExceptionValue Specifies what type of Teradata dynamic workload management software exception occurred.
ExpandAcctString The expanded account name under which the query is submitted if account expansion is invoked.
The &I, which gives the host, session, and request number for the query is different for a stored procedure call. For stored procedure calls, the request number is the client request number which is the request of the CALL statement.
FeatureUsage A bitmap of which features are used by the SQL request. Reports features visible on PEs only. Does not report features visible on AMPs only.
FinalWDID Indicates the workload definition in which the query completed execution.
FinalWDName Final workload name of the utility job.
FirstRespTime The timestamp when the first response packet is sent to the client unless the request is held by TASM to meet the minimum response time. In this case, it is the timestamp when the first response packet is ready to be sent to the client.
FirstStepTime The timestamp when the first step is dispatched.
FlexThrottle Whether TASM released the request because of dynamic (flex) throttles, which relax workload throttle limits when the system is less busy. If flex throttles released the request, the value is T. If not, the value is NULL.
InternalRequestNum The internal request number.

For commands, other than those within a stored procedure, the internal request number and the number in the RequestNum field will be the same.

For stored procedures invoked within a session, the internal request number increments by 1 for every request made by the stored procedure. This means that RequestNum will be the request number of the CALL and the value in InternalRequestNum will continue to increment for all other queries issued by the session.
IODecayLevel Contains the most severe decay level reached for I/O usage on any one node for requests using the default Timeshare workload management method. Values are 0, 1, or 2. A value of 0 indicates that the request is running at the default priority. A value of 1 indicates that the priority level is reduced and the resource allotment is halved. A value of 2 indicates that the priority level is reduced again, the resource allotment is halved again, and it will not be reduced more.
IterationCount The number of data rows used by a parameterized request.
KeepFlag Whether the response parcel should be kept until the client responds that it is no longer needed. The value is either Y or N.
LastRespTime The timestamp of the last response. This field is NULL if you are not using DBQL CPU/IO Collection algorithm 3.
LastStateChange Time of the last State change by the Teradata dynamic workload management software.
LockDelay Maximum wait time to get a lock on an object in centiseconds. The maximum value is 32,767 centiseconds.

SeqRespTime Sum of the response time of all steps as if they had been executed sequentially, in seconds.
SessionID Unique session identifier.
SessionTemporalQualifier When a DML or SELECT request refers to a temporal table but omits a temporal qualifier, the system uses the value of the session temporal qualifier. This is the session temporal qualifier in effect when the query is logged. For more information on the qualifier, see ANSI Temporal Table Support and Temporal Table Support.
SessionWDID Workload ID class associated with the session. It determines the priority of the session when the TDWM workload classification is active.
SessionWDName Session workload name of the utility job.
SpoolUsage If you are using algorithm 3 (the DBQLogTbl DataCollectAlg field= 3), the peak spool usage in bytes for any step of the query.

For other algorithms, the maximum amount of spool used while processing the query.

If SpoolUsage is 0, then there is no usage. If it is null, the data on usage was not valid.
StartTime The timestamp when the query is submitted.
StatementGroup If there is a DDL statement in a request, StatementGroup reports which type:
  • DDL ALTER
  • DDL CREATE
  • DDL GRANT

If the statement has only one DML statement or multiple DML statements that are all of the same type, StatementGroup will indicate the type. For example if there are three DELETE statements in a request, StatementGroup will report:

DML DELETE

Similarly, for requests with individual or multiple INSERT, INSERT... SELECT, UPDATE or SELECT statements, StatementGroup will report:

  • DML INSERT
  • DML INSERT... SELECT
  • DML UPDATE
  • SELECT

In a multistatement request with different types of DML statements, you will see a list showing the number of statements of each type in the request. For example, a request with one insert and two update statements will appear as:

DML Del=0 Ins=1 InsSel=0 Upd=2 Sel=0
Statements Number of statements in a request:
  • 1 = single-statement.
  • > 1 = multiple statements.
StatementType The type of statement of the query.

In a multistatement request, this is the last statement of the request. However, this may not accurately describe the request. For more statement information, see StatementGroup.
SysConID The internal identifier of the System Condition (SysCon)/ System Health currently enforced by the Teradata dynamic workload management software.
SysConName System condition name of the utility job.
SysDefNumMapAmps The number of AMPs in the system-default map.
TacticalCPUException The number of nodes that had a CPU exception for the request.
TacticalIOException The number of nodes that had an I/O exception for the request.
TDWMAllAmpFlag Indicates whether one of the steps of the query is an all-amp step. This is used to classify a query into a workload definition.
TDWMConfLevelUsed
No longer a TASM rule attribute. The letter 'N' will always be logged.
TDWMEstLastRows The estimated last row count generated by the Optimizer used to classify a query into a workload definition.

TDWMRuleID Rule identifier of the query.
ThrottleBypassed Whether an active request is active solely due to the ThrottleBypass ruleset attribute. This attribute overrides the throttle limits if the session owning the request has an object lock higher than the Access level. Possible values include:
  • ThrottleBypass ruleset attribute is set.
  • ThrottleBypass ruleset attribute is not set.
TnxUniq The unique value within the transaction number. Other transaction number components (userid, procid) are already in DBQLogTbl. Combined with TxnUniq, these fields represent the complete transaction id for the logged request.
