Parameters for the Analysis

You can start both the Standard Scan and the Extended Scan as well as the Light Scan manually.

The manual scan allows you to configure the parameters for a specific variant if you want to determine non-standard information or want to disable irrelevant parameters.

For the manual scan, a distinction is still made between user mode and expert mode. In expert mode, additional parameters are enabled to refine the data collection.

NOTE Changing the parameters can influence the runtime of Kyano CrystalBridge Extractor. We therefore recommend that you only change the parameters after consulting a contact person at SNP Schneider-Neureither & Partner SE.

The following table lists all parameters with a description and shows which parameters are set by default in which mode.

Count records using aRFC

If this parameter is enabled, the data records are counted using aRFC by default. In addition, other functions are available.

If the SAP release is 740 or higher and the SAP profile parameters RDISP/SCHEDULER/PRIO_LOW/MAX_RUNTIME and RDISP/MAX_WPRUN_TIME have values with default kernels, then this parameter is enabled by default. You can disable it manually in expert mode.

--X
Which type of tables this applies for?
Transparent

Enables the Transparent table type, for which you can retrieve a record via RFC.

-X-
Cluster

Enables the Cluster table type, for which you can retrieve a record via RFC.

-X-
Pool

Enables the Pool table type, for which you can retrieve a record via RFC.

-X-
Apply only for largest tablesIf this parameter is enabled, the function is only applied to the largest tables.-XX
No. of largest tablesYou can use this field to define the number of largest tables for which you want to use this function.-XX
Max. number of cancellationsYou can use this field to define the maximum number of allowed cancellations until the process terminates. 100 cancellations are set by default.-XX
Use COUNT BIG for DB2,4,6

If this parameter is enabled, counting of tables or table-field combinations is based on the SQL statement COUNT_BIG.

This expression is part of Native SQL for DB2, DB4 and DB6 databases.

For DBx databases, this parameter is set by default and can be disabled manually in expert mode.

NOTE

This parameter appears only if the check is performed in a system with a DBx database.

-XX
Use cursor for cluster tables

If this parameter is enabled, counting of records is based on the SQL statement OPEN CURSOR instead of the SQL statement SELECT COUNT.

This expression is used for cluster tables when the databases are not DB2, DB4 or DB6.

Technical optimizations
Fetch avlb. values improvement

If this parameter is enabled, an optimization is performed when determining possible values for table fields.

The optimization applies to the following steps:

  • Detailed analysis
  • Object analysis (old model)
  • Org. units in customer tables
XXX
Persist results per object

If this parameter is enabled, the persistence of results is optimized.

The optimization applies to the following steps:

  • Detailed analysis
  • Object analysis (old model)
  • Org. units in customer tables
XXX
Text collector If this parameter is enabled, the collection of texts is optimized reducing the memory consumption in the text collector step. XXX
New logic indexes & LOB size

If this parameter is enabled, the new logic is used to determine the size of the table, indexes and LOB. As a result, the estimation of the table size is more detailed. The parameter is available for DB6.

This optimization applies to the following steps:

  • SAP tables

  • Customer tables

XXX
SCMON performance improvementIf this parameter is enabled, the repository analysis is optimized by reducing the execution time via FOR ALL ENTRIES. The size of package is set to 10000 by default. The optimization applies to systems with a database that differs from the HANA database.XXX
