Configuring monitoring profiles and Db2 subsystems

OMEGAMON for Db2 Performance Expert provides several optional z/OS® components to help you analyze, monitor, and tune your Db2 subsystems.

About this task

You must add one or more monitoring profiles to configure the monitoring functionality that you want to use for the different Db2 subsystems. The monitoring profiles define the monitoring functionality that you want to use.

  • For each Db2 subsystem, you must specify which monitoring profile it should use. Each profile can be used for one or more Db2 subsystems. You do this by associating the Db2 subsystem with a monitoring profile. For instructions, refer to Associating a Db2 subsystem with a monitoring profile.

    You can configure as many Db2 subsystems as you like. However, the server only monitors the first 32 monitoring-enabled Db2 subsystems as listed in RKD2PRF(DB2PROF). To monitor more Db2 subsystems on a single LPAR you need to configure an additional OMPE Collector.
