Exception profiling
This menu option navigates to the Exception Profiling panel, where you profile exception settings, such as thresholds settings, input data sets to be used, and reports to be generated.
If this option is selected, the Exception Profiling panel is displayed:

In this panel, you can specify the
required data sets and profiling criteria that are required to calculate
the thresholds in an Exception Threshold data set. A report that shows
the details of the distribution and the expected number of exceptions
for each field can also be produced. The panel contains the following
fields:
- Warning exceptions
- You can specify the percentage of input data that is to trigger a warning.
- Problem exceptions
- You can specify the percentage of input data that is to trigger a problem.
- Produce profile report
- You can specify whether you want to produce a profile report containing details about each field. The profile report includes a table of expected number of exceptions for various threshold entries.
- Input data set
- Specify the name of the data set containing data from your Db2 subsystem. The data set can be a GTF, SMF, or DPMOUT data set. The records in this data set should be representative of the type of data that you usually monitor. The input data should also contain a sufficient number of records to enable the profiling to be performed with reasonable accuracy. The data should also cover an appropriate span of time.
- Input threshold data set
- Specify the name of the data set that contains entries for the fields you want checked. It can be one of the Exception Threshold data sets provided in SDGOSAMP or your own data set.
- Output threshold data set
- Specify the name of the data set that the calculated threshold values are to be written to.
- Output report data set
- Specify the name of the data set that will contain the profile report (if requested).
