Group Object Analysis Attributes

Use the Group Object Analysis (GOA) attributes to crate situations that monitor object volume and extent activity for all DB2 systems in a data sharing group.

Data Sharing Group The name of a data sharing group. Valid format is alphanumeric, with a maximum of 8 characters; for example, TDDB241G.

Database Name The name of a DB2 database. Valid format is alphanumeric with a maximum of 8 characters; for example, DSNDB06.

DB2 ID The name of a DB2 subsystem.

Extents per Data Set Ratio The average number of extents per data set or space name for a DB2 database. Valid value is an integer in the range 0 - 100.

IDNAME An internal attribute used for navigation, it contains either the Data Sharing Group Name or the DB2ID. Valid format is alphanumeric with a maximum of 8 characters; for example TDDB242G.

Max Number of Exts per DSN The largest number of extents per data set of space name for a DB2 database. Valid value is an integer in the range 0 - 219.

MVS System The MVS System Management Facility (SMF) ID. Valid format is alphanumeric with a maximum of 4 characters; for example SP11.

Number of Data Sets The total number of allocated data sets for the DB2 you are monitoring. Valid value is an integer in the range 0 - 10000.

Number of DB2 systems The total number of monitored DB2 systems. Valid value is an integer in the range 1 - 64.

Number of Extents The number of data set extents that the operating system has allocated for a data set. Valid value is an integer in the range 0 - 219.

Number of Indexes The number of index spaces that the operating system currently has allocated to DB2. Valid value is an integer in the range 0 - 99999.

Number of Spaces The total number of index spaces and table spaces that the operating system currently has allocated to DB2. Valid value is an integer in the range 0 - 99999.

Number of Table Spaces The number of table spaces that the operating system currently has allocated to DB2. Valid value is an integer in the range - 10000.

Number of Volumes The number of volumes on which the data set resides. Valid value is an integer in the range 0 - 256.

Originating System ID The managed system name of the agent. Valid format is alphanumeric, with a maximum of 32 characters; for example, DB91:SYS1:DB2.

Time Stamp Represents the end of data collection or the end of an interval, and is the local time where the system is running.

Valid format is MM-DD-YY HH:MM:SS, where:
  • M = Month
  • D = Day
  • Y = Year
  • H = Hour
  • M = Minute
  • S = Second
For example, 07-16-12 14:58:29 indicates that data collection ended on July 16th, 2012, at 14:58:29 PM.
