DSNZPARM Data set and Database Parameters

This panel shows information about the data set and database-related installation parameters in the DSNZPARM module. It shows the name of the DSNZPARM module that is specified for DB2® startup and the date on which the module is assembled. It also shows a list of the default values of the DB2 application.

If a field is not available for the current DB2 release, the string N/A is displayed. For other conditions, for example, if specific DB2 traces are not started or control block data is not available, the string N/P is displayed.

This parameter determines whether data compression in table spaces in implicitly defined databases is used.
Start of change(PREVENT_ALTERTB_LIMITKEY) (QWP4XPKE)End of change
Start of change
Start of changeDetermines whether DB2 disallows altering the limit key by using an ALTER TABLE statement for index-controlled partitioned table spaces. This alter operation places the table space in REORG-pending (REORP) restrictive status, and the data is not available until the affected partitions are reorganized. Use PREVENT_ALTERTB_LIMITKEY to avoid this data unavailability.
NO
Specifies that you can alter a limit key by using an ALTER TABLE statement for index-controlled partitioned table spaces. NO is the default.
YES
Specifies that it is not permitted to alter a limit key by using an ALTER TABLE statement for index-controlled partitioned table spaces. An ALTER TABLE statement must not attempt to alter the limit key for an index-controlled partitioned table.
End of change
DB2 11 and later.End of change
(IX_TB_PART_CONV_EXCLUDE) (QWP4XPKE)
This parameter determines whether to include all columns in the partitioning key during the conversion from index-controlled partitioning to table-controlled partitioning.

DSNTIP91-Workfile Database
Max Temp STG/AGENT (MAXTEMPS) (QWP4WFAL)
Specifies the maximum number of megabytes of temporary storage in the work file database that can be used by a single agend at any given time for all temporary tables. If 0 is specified, a limit is not enforced.
Valid values:
0 - 2147483647 

Default: 0

Separate Work Files (WFDBSEP) (QWP4WFDBSEP)
This parameter determines whether DB2 provides an unconditional separation of table spaces in the work file database based on the allocation attributes of the table spaces.
Valid values:
YES
DB2 directs declared global temporary table (DGTT) work only to DB2-managed (STOGROUP) work file table spaces that are defined with a non-zero SECQTY and work file work only to other work file table spaces (DB2-managed table spaces that are defined with zero SECQTY or user-managed table spaces).
If a table space with the preferred allocation type is not available, an error messages is issued by DB2.
NO
DB2 attempts to direct (DGTT) work to DB2-managed (STOGROUP) work file table spaces that are defined with a non-zero SECQTY and work file work to any other work file table space (DB2-managed table spaces that are defined with zero SECQTY or user-managed table spaces.
If a table space with the preferred allocation type is available, DB2 selects a table space with a non-preferred allocation type.
Default: NO
Max Temp RID (MAXTEMPS_RID) (QWP4WFRD)
The maximum number of RID blocks of temporary storage in the work file database that a single RID list can use at any point in time.
(WFSTGUSE_AGENT_THRESHOLD) (QWP4WFAT)
Determines the percentage of the space that is available in the work file database on this DB2 subsystem or in this data sharing member that can be consumed by a single agent before a warning message is issued.
Space in the work file database can be configured for temporary (DGTT-ORIENTED) work and for sort work including CGTTS and trigger transition tables.
Valid values:
0
Agent-level space-usage alerts for the work file database are not issued by DB2.
This is the default setting.
1 - 100
If DSN6SPRM.WFDBSEP is set to YES, a warning message is issued by DB2 if the percentage of the total temporary work file space or the percentage of the total sort work file space that is consumed by an agent exceeds the specified threshold.
If DSN6SPRM.WFDBSEP is set to NO, a warning message is issued by DB2 if the percentage of the entire work file space (temporary and sort) that is consumed by an agent exceeds the specified threshold.
If DSN6SPRM.MAXTEMPS is greater than 0 and if the threshold that is specified for DSN6SPRM.MAXTEMPS is exceeded before the threshold that is specified for the WFSTGUSE_AGENT is reached, the warning message is not issued because MAXTEMPS is reached first by the agent. This results in a error message "Resource unavailable" with the SQL code -904.
DB2 11 and later.
(WFSTGUSE_SYSTEM_THRESHOLD) (QWP4WFST)
Determines the percentage of the space that is available in the work file database on this DB2 subsystem or in this data sharing member that can be consumed by all agents before a warning message is issued.
Valid values:
0
System-level space-usage alerts for the work file database are not issued by DB2.
1 - 100
If DSN6SPRM.WFDBSEP is set to YES, a warning message is issued by DB2 if the percentage of total temporary work file space or the percentage of total sort work file space that is consumed by all agents exceeds the specified threshold.
If DSN6SPRM.WFDBSEP is set to NO, a warning message is issued by DB2 if the percentage of the entire work file space (temporary and sort) that is consumed by all agents exceeds the specified threshold.
The default setting is 90. DB2 11 and later.
DSNTIPS-Auto Start DB/TS
Restart or Defer (RESTART) (QWP7STR )
This parameter determines whether DB2 databases are started automatically or are deferred.
Valid values:
NO
The specified databases and page sets are deferred.
YES
The specified databases are started automatically.
Auto Start Type (LIST or ALL) (SWP7STR )
This parameter determines the DB2 databases that are started or deferred.
Valid values:
ALL
When DB2 starts, all databases are started automatically.
LIST
When DB2 starts, a list of databases and table spaces and indexes is displayed. The databases and table spaces and indexes of this list are started automatically or they are deferred.
