Enabling Performance Expert Client support

If you want to use the Performance Expert Client, you must enable the host data collector started task to listen on a specific TCP/IP port.

The Performance Expert Client is a user interface that supports online monitoring and reporting, Performance Warehouse management, and buffer pool analysis on the workstation.

To enable Performance Expert Client to communicate with the data collector, set parameter KD2_OMPE_PE_SUPPORT to Y.

Here is a list of the related parameters:

KD2_OMPE_TCPIP_NAME
KD2_OMPE_TCPIP_ADDRESS
KD2_OMPE_MAX_SESSIONS

After you have enabled Performance Expert Client support, you must perform the following tasks:

Specify a separate port for each Db2 subsystem if the Performance Expert Client is enabled, otherwise there will be errors in the log. See Specifying port information.
Ensure that the OMEGAMON Collector is configured to use TCP/IP services. See Setting up TCP/IP services for detailed information.
Install Performance Expert Client on the workstation. For Performance Expert Client, see Installing and configuring Performance Expert Client for more information.
