Input data from Db2 monitor traces

To use the Online Monitor, ensure that the DB2® monitor trace is active. Monitor trace class 1 is required to display data. Monitor trace classes 2, 3, 7, and 8 should also be activated.

As long as the monitor trace is active, there is no need to activate Db2 Statistics and Accounting traces.

Monitor trace class 2 provides Db2 processor and elapsed times for the Thread Activity panels and class 7 provides Db2 processor and elapsed times for packages. Monitor trace class 2 is also required for class 1 TCB time.

Monitor trace class 3 provides Db2 suspension times for the Thread Activity panels and class 8 provides Db2 suspension times for packages.

Note: The version and release numbers of the Db2 load library allocated to the Online Monitor session must match the version and release numbers of the Db2 subsystems being monitored.

To change the version of Db2 you are monitoring, exit from the Online Monitor and ISPF to reallocate the Db2 load library. For information about how to reallocate the Db2 load library at your site, consult your system programmer.
