Current® Parallel Task Summary

This panel provides information about the activity of parallel tasks that are executing on behalf of a thread.

Parallel tasks are created when CPU parallelism is selected as the method for processing an SQL query. Internally, parallel tasks are displayed as Db2 system threads.

For more information about
  • A particular parallel task, move the cursor to the task information line and press F11 (Zoom). For more information, see the description of panel Thread Detail.
  • Exceptions that have tripped, type E.A on the top line of the panel.
  • Related topics, select one of the options at the top of the panel.

Fields

Thread identifier: This information identifies the thread to which the information in this panel applies.
Plan
The Db2 plan name of the active thread.
Connid
The Db2 connection identifier of the active thread.
Corrid
The Db2 correlation identifier of the active thread. If the correlation is not set, N/A is displayed.
Authid
The Db2 authorization identifier of the active thread.
Attach
Depending on the type of connection, the appropriate information is displayed.
Attach information is displayed only if the thread is a distributed allied thread (not for distributed database access threads).
Connection Type
Batch
The MVS™ jobname and ASID.
Note: For threads from remote Db2, the MVS job name is N/A.
CICS®
The CICS jobname, task name, task number, terminal ID, and thread type. The thread type is:
Pool
The thread in use is a pool thread.
Entry
The thread in use is a nonprotected entry thread.
Prot
The thread in use is a protected thread. Protected threads are defined in an RCT entry definition using the THRDS operand.
IMS
The IMS region number, transaction name, region name, and terminal ID (LTERM).
RRSAF
The MVS job name and ASID.
Note: For threads from remote Db2, the MVS job name is N/A.
System
The originating Db2 job name and the resource manager that is the source of the thread. An additional line below the Attach line identifies the user thread, if any, being served by the system thread.
TSO
The TSO user ID and region ASID.
Utility
No additional information.
Db2
The Db2 subsystem identifier.
MVS
The MVS system identifier.
ORIGAUTH
The original (primary) Db2 authorization identifier of the thread. This field displays only when the original identifier is different from the Authid.
Package identifier: This information identifies the package to which the information in this panel applies.
Package
The Db2 package name of the active thread. Up to 18 characters of the package name are returned.
Collection
The package collection identifier. This field is displayed only if a package is being used.
Elapsed
The time elapsed since the parallel task was created. When the task's elapsed time exceeds 24 hours, the format is dd-hh:mm.
CPU Time
The total central processor CPU time accumulated for the thread. This value includes only MVS TCB time. SRB time is not included.
Status
The current Db2 status of the parallel task.
GetPg
The number of Getpage requests for the parallel task.

Getpage requests are logical Read requests that might not actually result in physical I/O if the requested page is currently in the buffer pool. Db2 resets this count at Create Thread and Signon.

Read I/O
The number of synchronous Read I/O requests.
Pfetch
The number of Sequential, List, and Dynamic Prefetch requests.
Waits
The total number of times that the parallel task had to wait for a class 3 event to complete. If Accounting trace class 3 is not active, N/A is displayed.
Wait Time
The total elapsed time that the parallel task had to wait for a class 3 event to complete.
