How to analyze HDB data

Three facilities are provided to help you analyze HDB data:
  1. Reporting.

    The HDB Reporting facility provides flexible reporting of HDBs via Report Forms.

    You can also use the Transaction Profiling report to compare data in a Performance HDB with data in SMF files, data in the same HDB, or data in another Performance HDB.

  2. Exporting to DB2®.

    HDB data can be loaded directly into a DB2 table for further analysis. HDB data is saved in a format that is suitable for direct load. The HDB Export facility automates this process for you.

  3. Extracting to CSV.

    HDB data can be exported into an extract data set in CSV format (comma separated values) for further analysis by PC spreadsheet tools.
