How can I access MaxDB performance data if I am in the SAP system?
You can access the Database Analyzer log by going to Transaction DB50 -> Problem Analysis -> Performance -> Database Analyzer. You can access the database console (x_cons), by going to Transaction DB50 and selecting Current Status -> Kernel Threads -> Task Manager. You can use the command monitor if you need to look in the special SQL statements to find the cause of the performance problems. To do this, see notes 819324 and 725489.
