Integrating IFCID 199 and SMF 42 data provides a view of buffer efficiency enabling buffer misses (I/Os) to be further subdivided into cache hits and misses, which can be leveraged to further refine buffer pool tuning methodologies.

This session suggests capabilities to keep in mind as you seek to modernize how you access and analyze your Db2 SMF data, both to promote rapid learning as well as boost the value you derive from your data.

Db2 IFCID 199 data provides buffer pool statistics at the dataset level. Integrating this with SMF 42 dataset I/O performance data provides extensive insights into I/O activity and response time data at the Db2 buffer pool and database levels.

Integrating IFCID 199 and SMF 42 data provides extensive insights into I/O cache characteristics and response time data at the Db2 buffer pool and Db2 database levels.

The profiles of work generated by the various callers of Db2 services often differ dramatically, highlighting the importance of dynamic navigation enabling great visibility into Db2 metrics by connection type.

Leveraging z/OS memory so that almost all data referenced by Db2 already resides in a buffer pool significantly improves performance and CPU efficiency.

Easy accessibility to key Db2 buffer metrics enhances buffer pool tuning analyses so that they can be quickly completed. This video explores key metrics for one buffer pool tuning methodology.

Easy accessibility to key Db2 buffer metrics simplifies buffer pool tuning analyses, increasing the likelihood they will be periodically revisited using data from new time intervals.

This webinar covers in detail the modern-day equivalents of yester-year's antique performance tools.

Computers are great at doing what we tell them. They don’t get tired, bored, or complain about the endless work we have them doing. But sometimes automation is running in not so obvious places. Learn some practical guidance for managing those workloads.

Analysts involved in leading CPU reduction efforts will have to focus limited staff resources on the top potential savings opportunities. This article focuses on job-level CPU reduction opportunities.

z/OS Anomaly Detection allows analysts to automatically detect workload and application changes, saving them countless hours of manual labor and intensive scrutiny while trying to determine the significance of changes
