Default Parameters for IBMDb2TbsTest

This test auto-discovers the tablespaces on an IBM DB2 server, and monitors the space usage of each tablespace.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the IBMDb2TbsTest.

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

  • In the USER text box, specify the name of the user who has any of the following privileges to the specified DATABASE:SYSADM or SYSCTRL or SYSMAINT or SYSMON.

  • Enter the password of the specified USER in the PASSWORD text box.

  • Confirm the PASSWORD by retyping it in the CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

  • Specify the name of the database on the monitored DB2 server to be used by this test in the DATABASE text box.

  • This test emulates a user executing a query on the specified DATABASE, and thus determines the availability and responsiveness of the database server. In the QUERY text box, specify the select query to execute.

  • Once the necessary values have been entered, clicking on the Update button will register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with "$" indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to "xyz" and $port will be changed to "80" when configuring a test.
