If you select DB2® CONTROL policy item from the Policy Section panel for DB2 subsystems, and you have specified the subcategory MSTR, Figure 1 is displayed where you describe the DB2 master address space:

On this panel, data is inherited per individual field, independent from each other. If a field is blank, the value is inherited from the upward class, if applicable. To find out which direct upward class that a value has been inherited from, type the command classname (or its abbreviation cn) on the command line.

You can override any inherited values by overtyping them. If you override any inherited values, those attributes become specific to that particular instance. Other attributes that are not overridden continue to inherit values from the linked class. The value color can indicate which are inherited values.

Subcategory: This parameter shows the subcategory and is always MSTR. It can be entered in the Subcategory field of the APPLICATION INFO policy item of the application instance or application class. The value shown is either for the application instance or the application class that the application is linked to.
Subsystem ID: This entry should correspond to the DB2 subsystem ID as defined in the system PARMLIB.
You can include system symbols and system automation symbols. See Assigning System Automation Symbols (AOCCLONE).
Active Log Dataset: The name of the active log data set to check against before the command to message DSNJ002I is issued. This value is compared with the data set name in the message text. The specified value is implicitly appended with a wildcard character. You can include system symbols and system automation symbols.
Log Full Threshold: How full that the active log data set is allowed to be before the command corresponding to the DSNJ110E message is issued. The default value is 90%.
STOP Tablespace Delay: This is the delay between STOP tablespace request cycles. Up to 3 cycles are performed to ensure that the tablespace is shut down. 2 minutes (00:02:00) is the default.
Active Log Alert: This is the amount of time after which the DSNJ111E alert is reset. The default value is 5 minutes (00:05:00).
Log Alert Threshold: This is the number of DSNJ111E alerts to allow for before issuing any associated commands. 5 alerts is the default.
If 0 is specified, the specified command is issued on the first occurrence of the DSNJ111E message.
Log Offload Interval: This is the amount of time to allow between DSNJ115I messages before issuing an alert plus any associated commands for the DSNJ115I message entry. 30 minutes is the default.
