DSNB800I DIRECTORY ENTRY TO DATA PAGE RATIO SET TO value FOR gbpname. IT WILL TAKE EFFECT ON THE NEXT REALLOCATION

Explanation

This message is issued in response to an ALTER GROUPBUFFERPOOL command that requests a change to the directory entry to the data page ratio for a group buffer pool. It is also issued for the first ALTER GROUPBUFFERPOOL command for a group buffer pool, even when no ratio value is specified on the command (in this case, the default ratio value is being used). The new ratio takes effect the next time the coupling facility cache structure is allocated.

The directory entry to data page ratio determines the number of directory entries and the number of data pages that are allocated in the coupling facility cache structure for the group buffer pool. If the coupling facility structure is not allocated, the first connect from any Db2 causes allocation of the structure and the new directory entry to data page ratio to take effect.

System action

Processing continues.

System programmer response

Use the -DISPLAY GROUPBUFFERPOOL command to display the number of allocated directory and data entries.
