Updated Geodatabase Toolset For ArcCatalog 9.3/9.3.1 Is Now Available

An updated version of the Geodatabase Toolset (GDBT) for ArcCatalog 9.3/9.3.1 is now available for download.

The Geodatabase Toolset (GDBT) for ArcCatalog 9.3/9.3.1 provides the tools to assist you with monitoring, investigating, and reporting the performance of your multiuser geodatabase. With the GDBT, you can monitor the day-to-day health of your geodatabase and better investigate performance issues.

The highlights of this release:

• It works on both ArcGIS 9.3 and 9.3.1 clients, with both 9.3 and 9.3.1 ArcSDE geodatabases.
• It works on all supported ArcSDE geodatabase DBMS platforms: DB2, Informix, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, & SQL Server Express.
• The GDBT functionality in ArcCatalog and ArcMap have been split into 2 separate installs. Currently, only the ArcCatalog functionality is available for 9.3/9.3.1; the ArcMap functionality is planned to be available in a forthcoming release (estimate sometime in late Q4 of 2009).
• The intent for this GDBT release is to maintain equivalent functionality to previous GDBT releases.
• The GDBT help documentation has been updated and included as part of the installation.

The GDBT works with geodatabases stored on SQL Server, Oracle, Informix, DB2, or PostgreSQL databases.

It provides a wide variety of information including:

• The total number of rows in the add and delete tables
• Users connected to the geodatabase and locked schemas
• A graphic of the state tree lineage
• Detailed information of a features class spatial index
• Parent-child relationships between versions for version management
• Table and Index Statistics for geodatabase stored in an Oracle database
