IBSurgeon Optimization Pack
IBSurgeon Optimization Pack is replaced by HQbird Standard. The same performance tools - statistics, tracing, transaction monitoring, and server health - now live in HQbird instead of five separate licenses.
What the Optimization Pack covered
Typical flow: see when the problem happens (transaction monitor / DataGuard), then which applications and statements (scanner / Trace), then which tables and indices (IBAnalyst). Then tighten backups and alerts.
IBAnalyst
Table and index size, fragmentation, selectivity, record versions, and garbage - with tuning notes.
FBScanner
Proxy log of statements and transactions without loading the database server. Now HQbird monitoring / Trace.
IBTM
Transaction markers, sweep, and load peaks over the day.
FBDataGuard
Health, space, errors, backups, and email alerts on the server.
FBMonLogger was the fast MON$ snapshot when users report slowness. All of this is in HQbird Standard and above. For a guided audit see the optimization service.
