Setting up and tuning DB2

Some DB2® variables are configured to meet the requirements of the test setup.

Setting DB2 profile variables
These two DB2 profile variables described in this topic are explicitly set for this test setup.
Using the DB2 autoconfigure command to configure database parameters
Using DB2 autoconfigure is an easy and quick way to find the initial settings for database parameters.
Setting the DB2 buffer pool size
The database server is equipped with 8 GB memory. This allows a larger buffer pool than the initial default buffer pool size.
