Field Descriptions

This topic describes the fields of an Exception Log.

The following fields are shown including OMEGAMON® for DB2® PE:

PRIMAUTH
The primary authorization ID of the thread.
ORIGAUTH
The original authorization ID of the thread.
PLANNAME
The DB2 application plan name of the thread.
CONNECT
The DB2 connection ID of the thread.
CORRNAME
The correlation name of the thread.
CORRNMBR
The correlation number of the thread.
EXCEPTION TIME
For accounting records, this is the accounting timestamp. For statistics records, this is the END TIME of the statistics interval in which the exception occurred.
INSTANCE
The LUW instance number.
CONNTYPE
The type of connection for the associated thread. Values are:
CICS
CICS® Attach
DB2 PRIV
DB2 private protocol
DB2CALL
DB2 CALL Attach
DLI-BTCH
DL/I Batch
DRDA
DRDA protocol
IMS-CNTL
IMS Control Region
IMS-BMP
IMS nontransaction-oriented BMP
IMS-MPP
IMS Attach MPP
IMS-TBMP
IMS transaction-oriented BMP
RRS
RRS attach
TSO
TSO foreground and background
UTILITY
Utility attach

If connection type is not present, 'BLANK' is printed.

MAINPACK
This identifier is used to distinguish plans according to the packages they contain.
PER
This identifies the log entry as an exception per system, per plan, or per program.
FIELD ID
The field ID of the accounting or statistics field in exception status.
FIELD DESCRIPTION
A description of the field in exception status. This description matches, as closely as possible, the terminology used in the Accounting and Statistics reports. If the field in exception status is a buffer pool field, the buffer pool ID is printed in front of the field description on the same line. Values are:
  • BP0 — BP49
  • BP32K — BP32K9

All nondistributed fields for an accounting thread or statistics interval are listed first. Any distributed fields in exception status follow the nondistributed fields and are grouped by remote location. Packages follow after DDF and are grouped by package name.

BY
The basis used for comparing values in the records to values in the exception threshold data set. Values are:
  • TOTAL — an absolute value (the default)
  • MINUTE — by minute
  • SECOND — by second
  • COMMIT — by commit
  • THREAD — by thread
CALCULATED OR FIELD VALUE
The value from the field in exception status — either an absolute value or a value calculated according to the comparison basis.

Time values are reported in the format sssssss.thtt, where sssssss is time in seconds and thtt is in tenths, hundredths, thousandths, and ten-thousandths of seconds. Integer values such as aborts and selects are reported in the format nnnnnnnnnnnn. Other values are reported in the format nnnnnnnnn.nn.

OP
The greater than (>) or less than (<) operator.
THRESHOLD VALUE
The value defined in the exception threshold data set, above or below which the actual value must fall to be considered in exception status.
THRESHOLD TYPE
Describes whether the THRESHOLD VALUE is defined in the exception threshold data set as a WARNing or a PROBlem.
Note: PRIMAUTH, ORIGAUTH, PLANNAME, CONNECT, CORRNAME, CORRNMBR, INSTANCE, CONNTYPE, and MAINPACK do not apply to statistics records. Except for MAINPACK, N/A is printed for these fields. For MAINPACK, nothing is printed.
