Starting Performance Expert Client

You can start Performance Expert Client directly or from the Db2® Control Center.

If you installed a firewall on your workstation, ensure that Performance Expert Client has correct access permissions. Otherwise, Performance Expert Client does not work correctly.

You can start Performance Expert Client directly in one of the following ways:
  • Double-click the IBM DB2 Performance Expert for zOS icon on your desktop.
  • Click Start > All Programs > IBM DB2 Performance Expert for zOS > IBM DB2 Performance Expert for zOS.

To start Performance Expert Client from the Db2 Control Center, click the Icon to start PE Client toolbar button.

If you want to start Performance Expert Client more than once on a workstation and on the same operating system, Performance Expert Client must run under different user IDs. For example, if you want to start Performance Expert Client three times in such an environment, Performance Expert Client must run under three different user IDs or on different workstations.

After you start Performance Expert Client, the System Overview window is displayed, which is the main window.
