sys.zOS.DB2Subsystem

Db2® subsystems consist of several specialized address spaces components running on a z/OS® system. Each provide different Db2 services for the subsystem. Each subsystem has one address space known as the Master which regulates the Db2 subsystem as a whole.

Attributes marked with an asterisk (*) are discovered only when ENABLE_ZRDS are enabled. For more information, see SET directive

Attributes

CDM attribute Value Example
(Subsystem) SubsystemName The 1-4 character name of the Db2 subsystem. DB7A
(Subsystem) CommandPrefixName A prefix used by support personnel to direct commands to the Db2 subsystem. DB7A
(Subsystem) ControllingAddressSpace The Jobname of the Master address space. This is needed to identify the address space to support personnel. DB7AMSTR
(Subsystem) DDFLocation* The Db2 DDF location information. DB1B
(Subsystem) VersionString Db2 Version Release and Modification level. 8.1.0
SysDatabaseMaxAlteredTs Maximum ALTEREDTS value for the SYSIBM.SYSDATABASE table. This attribute enables changes to the SYSDATABASE catalog to be tracked. datestamp
SysTableSpaceMaxAlteredTs Maximum ALTEREDTS value for the SYSIBM.SYSTABLESPACE table. This attribute enables changes to the SYSTABLESPACE catalog to be tracked. datestamp
SysTablesMaxAlteredTs Maximum ALTEREDTS value for the SYSIBM.SYSTABLES table. This attribute enables changes to the SYSTABLES catalog to be tracked. datestamp
SysIndexesMaxAlteredTs Maximum ALTEREDTS value for the SYSIBM.SYSINDEXES table. This attribute enables changes to the SYSINDEXES catalog to be tracked. datestamp
SysColumnsMaxAlteredTs Maximum ALTEREDTS value for the SYSIBM.SYSCOLUMNES table. This attribute enables changes to the SYSCOLUMNS catalog to be tracked. datestamp

Requirements for discovery

  • Db2 subsystem book has all attributes and all relationships except AddressSpaces.
  • ZOSTASK book has naming rules and relationships to AddressSpaces.
  • Filtering enabled (which is the default).
  • Db2 subsystem and related address spaces must be active and fully initialized.
  • Attributes and relationships are marked with an asterisk (*) are discovered only when the DLA runs in authorized mode.
  • The user ID running the DLA must have authority to issue the Db2 DISPLAY DB(*) and DISPLAY GROUP(*) commands.
  • The user ID that run the DLA must have read access to the following Db2 Tables:
    • SYSIBM.SYSDATABASE for SysdatabaseMaxAlterdts attribute
    • SYSIBM.SYSTABLESPACE for SystablespaceMaxAlterdts attribute
    • SYSIBM.SYSTABLES for SystablesMaxAlterdts attribute
    • SYSIBM.SYSINDEXES for SysindexesMaxAlterdts attribute
    • SYSIBM.SYSCOLUMNS for SyscolumnsMaxAlterdts attribute
  • Rexx bind for DSNREXX interface must be run for Sys* attributes.
