| From: | | Victor Sokovin |
| | What I have noticed is that modules LIBPM figure reasonably highly in MLOADS which don't have an INMOD. MLOADS with an INMOD don't show
LIBPM at all. | |
| | I've looked up LIBPM on the web and there seems to several different products or services called LIBPM but all of them seem to pertain to
unix environments. | |
| | Does anybody know what LIBPM is and why it might might figure in MLOADS without INMODS? | |
In the context of Teradata, LIBPM might refer to what is called the Data Connector, the shared library used by utilities such as MultiLoad (via
API). I obviously don't know any details about the loads you are referring to but in general there is no big surprise in what you are observing.
When INMODs are used, the utilities delegate some work to them. When they are not used, LIBPM has to perform all the tasks, hence, relatively
higher CPU usage. Of course, this is just the global view, the real truth might be in the specific details of your implementation.

Victor
