Issue/Introduction

There is a CA Datacom/DB database table that we believe is no longer being used.

Is there a way to track usage of this table without causing failures or outages?

Environment

Component : CA DATACOM/DB

Resolution

The safest way to track usage of a table is to set up an Accounting Facility table to capture jobs and/or users. You can track all tables, which could have a significant effect on performance, or you could use the TEXT option to restrict the capture of data to the specific database and table you need.

Additional Information

As always, please contact CA Technologies support for CA Datacom if you have further questions.
