DB2 Network Information Center

Use the DB2 Network Information Center to help you understand your DB2 network.

Business Value:

The center consolidates the functions to access DB2 network information in one place. The DB2 staff has a single place to go to get information without the distraction of other product features.

Additional Considerations:

The DB2 Network Information Center provides a single point of access for DB2 staff to find out about DB2 network activities:

• You can find out about and diagnose Distributed Data Facility (DDF) connections.
• You can display statistics on DB2 address space activities.
• You can trace packets for defined ASMON resources of Type DB2.

You can access the menu for the DB2 Network Information Center using the /DB2 panel shortcut, or the D option on the Address Space and Port Management menu. To learn more about the center, see the tutorial on the menu.
