Starting in Fix Pack 1, the db2support tool
includes new filtering options that you can use to gather specific
diagnostic data more easily and an archiving option for storing diagnostic
files in a different location.
You can use the following new options:
- The -history history period and -time time
interval options limit the data gathered by the db2support tool
to the history period or time interval that you specify.
- The -Archive archive path option
creates a copy of the contents of the directory specified by the DIAGPATH configuration
parameter in an archive path that you specify. The archived directory's
name is appended with the hostname and current time stamp automatically.
- The -basic option limits the data gathered
by the db2support tool to the optimizer-related
diagnostic information.
- The -ol option has been enhanced to support
gathering data for multiple optimization levels.
- The -extenddb2batch option allows db2batch information
to be collected for all optimization levels when used with the -ol and -cl options.
- The -nodb2look and -nocatalog options
prevent the collection of db2look information and catalog information
respectively.
