Go Up to Understanding the Explorer Tree Hierarchy

This node provides access to a set of DBMS-specific performance-related objects.

Explorer node location

DBArtisan places the Performance node as the first level of information under the datasource node in the Explorer.

Sub-nodes and Platform Availability

Expanding this node provides access to the following nodes:

DB2 LUW DB2 z/OS MySQL ORCL PSTGRS * SQL SVR SYB ASE SYB IQ

For a support summary for the Event Monitors, Image Copies, and Buffer Pools object types, see Supported Objects.

The following topics provide details on all sub-nodes except the Event Monitors, Image Copies, and Buffer Pools nodes.

Note: For DB2 z/OS, performance is a result of the DB2 API calls. The DB2 API calls are subject to change depending on the version and DB2 SDK call interface of the DB2 server. Performances do not appear in the system catalog tables.

Active Threads Node

Active threads are the processes running on your database. When you select the Active Thread node on the Explorer, DBArtisan displays the active threads that are currently running on the IBM DB2 for z/OS and OS/390 database. To utilize all Database Monitor functionality, on the Utilities menu, select Database Monitor.

Database Locks

The Database Locks node lists -DISPLAY DATABASE(*) LIMIT(*) LOCKS output, showing status codes, connection ID, correlation ID, and lock information (LockInfo field) for all programs holding locks on databases or spaces.

Note: LockInfo consists of lock status (H, W, or R), a lock state (IS, IX, S, U, SIX, X, or NSU), lock type (S, T, C, R, W, P, PP) and lock duration (A, C, H, M, P, or I). Similarly, status codes display standard -display command output (ARBDP, AREO*, ACHKP, AREST, AUXW, CHKP, COPY, DBETE, GRECP, ICOPY, LPL, LSTOP, PSRBD, RBDP, RBDP*, RECP, REFP, RELDP, REORP, RESTP, RO, RW, STOP, STOPE, STOPP, UT, UTRO, UTRW, UTUT, and WEPR).
