gbp_update_time - Group puffer pool update time monitor element

During extent movement, this monitor element shows the cumulative time taken to update cached page locations for moved extents in the group buffer pool.

The value is given in milliseconds.

Table 1. Table function monitoring information
Table function	Monitor element collection level
MON_GET_EXTENT_MOVEMENT_STATUS - get extent movement progress	Always collected

global_transaction_id - Global transaction identifier monitor element

The XA transaction ID in use at the time the event occurred.

Table 2. Event Monitoring Information
Event Type	Logical Data Grouping	Monitor Switch
Change history	ddlstmtexec txncompletion	Always collected
Unit of Work	uow	Always collected

Usage

For the change history event monitor, this is the global transaction ID in use at the time the event occurred. This is the data field in the SQLP_GXID structure that is part of the transaction logs.

gw_comm_error_time - Communication Error Time monitor element

The date and time when the most recent communication error (SQL30081) occurred while a DCS application was attempting to connect to a host database, or while it was processing an SQL statement.

Table 3. Snapshot Monitoring Information
Snapshot Level	Logical Data Grouping	Monitor Switch
DCS Database	dcs_dbase	Timestamp

Usage

Use this element for problem determination, in conjunction with Communication Error and the communication error logged in administration notification log.

gw_comm_errors - Communication Errors monitor element

The number of times that a communication error (SQL30081) occurred while a DCS application was attempting to connect to a host database, or while it was processing an SQL statement.

Table 4. Snapshot Monitoring Information
Snapshot Level	Logical Data Grouping	Monitor Switch
DCS Database	dcs_dbase	Basic

For snapshot monitoring, this counter can be reset.

Usage: By monitoring the number of communication errors over time, you can assess whether your Db2 Connect gateway has connectivity problems with a particular host database. You can establish what you consider to be a normal error threshold, so that any time the number of errors exceeds this threshold an investigation of the communication errors should be made.
Use this element for problem determination, in conjunction with the communication error logged in administration notification log.

gw_con_time - Db2 Connect Gateway First Connect Initiated monitor element

The date and time when the first connection to the host database was initiated from the Db2 Connect gateway.

Table 5. Snapshot Monitoring Information
Snapshot Level	Logical Data Grouping	Monitor Switch
DCS Database	dcs_dbase	Timestamp
DCS Application	dcs_appl	Timestamp

Usage: Use this element for problem determination on DCS applications.

gw_connections_top - Maximum Number of Concurrent Connections to Host Database monitor element

The maximum number of concurrent connections to a host database that have been handled by the Db2 Connect gateway since the first database connection.

Element identifier: gw_connections_top
Element type: watermark

Table 6. Snapshot Monitoring Information

Usage: This value can change frequently. It should be sampled at regular intervals over an extended period in order to obtain a realistic view of gateway usage.

gw_cons_wait_host - Number of Connections Waiting for the Host to Reply monitor element

The current number of connections to host databases being handled by the Db2 Connect gateway that are waiting for a reply from the host.
