Local Db2 Lock Conflict attributes

Use Local Db2 Lock Conflict Group attributes to create situations that monitor Db2 database lock conflicts.

Authorization ID The primary authorization ID from connection or signon, that identifies the execution privileges an application has to a Db2 object or service. It is an alphanumeric text string with a maximum of 8 characters; for example, TRAN5.

Begin Time Beginning store clock value (STCK) for the period covered by this accounting record. You can determine the elapsed time of the application by subtracting this field from QWACESC (ending store clock value). Threads that do not terminate (such as CICS primed threads and ims wait-for-input message regions) can have an ending clock value that includes the time the thread was inactive and waiting to perform work.
