* When returned as part of this logical data group, this element reflects the change in value of this metric since the last statistics collection or database activation, whichever was more recent.

Usage

The functionality to record buffer pool information at the statement level is supported for API and CLP snapshot requests.

In conjunction with the pool_temp_data_l_reads element, a calculation for the data page hit ratio for buffer pools located in temporary table spaces can be made using the following formula:

1 - (pool_temp_data_p_reads / pool_temp_data_l_reads)
