Analyze Db2 objects

OMEGAMON for Db2 Performance Expert analyzes objects to reveal disk access by application. This can help you balance the load and determine where DB2® data sets should be placed to evenly spread I/O over available disks.

You can use this feature to:

• Analyze Db2 object allocations
• Evaluate linear VSAM data set extent activity
• Monitor I/O activity at the DASD volume level
• Track object activity from a Db2 perspective

The first indication of a Db2 performance problem often involves the I/O activity associated with a DASD volume, Db2 table space, or Db2 index space. OMEGAMON for Db2 Performance Expert's object analysis capability enables you to isolate such activity at a granular level to better understand how a workload or event contributes to an I/O related Db2 problem.
