Viewing DB2 Object Performance Data in the Investigator

Performance Management

The Investigator helps you review and monitor DB2 applications and subsystem performance by providing multiple work areas to help you manage your data:

The table view presents information about application workload characteristics and resource use in rows and sortable columns that you can click to navigate to related data. The Investigator displays data in the table view by default. Each table includes a list of actions you can select to drill further into your application and subsystem data.
The chart view provides a graphical representation of application performance metrics in the form of pie charts.
The Time Series Facility (TSF) lets you chart application performance metrics in the form of graphs over a specific collection interval or multiple time periods.

The Investigator provides application and subsystem performance data by data sharing group and non-data sharing groups. Data sharing integration lets you view the collection statistics of a data sharing group's members as an integrated whole and comparatively.

You must start and stop collection activities through CA Detector, CA SYSVIEW for DB2, or CA Subsystem Analyzer.

Note: For more information about starting and stopping collection, see the CA Detector, CA SYSVIEW for DB2, or CA Subsystem Analyzer documentation.

Note: When you add a note to performance data in the Investigator, it can appear on multiple rows of data.
