Resource Governing
Resource Governing
Both products provide resource governing capabilities.
MXCS supports resource governing based on cost. When configured, MXCS sends an 
event message (EMS) to register any attempt to exceed the cost limit. The query can 
be stopped or executed. Resource governing policies are configured through the 
Resource Management tab in NSM/web. 
Setting Control Statements
Use control statements to modify the execution of an SQL query.
You can configure control statements in both products but the statements are 
associated with different configuration objects. In the NonStop ODBC Server 
configuration, a control statement is associated with a profile. In MXCS, a control 
statement is associated with a data source (which implements the same concept as a 
profile).
An MXCS control statement can be any valid SQL/MX control statement and is 
executed at the time the client connects to the server. Use NSM/web or MXCI to 
configure the control statements for a data source. 
Control statements defined for NonStop SQL/MP might not work with SQL/MX. Refer 
to the SQL/MX Reference Manual for a detailed description of control statements.
