BMC DASD MANAGER PLUS for DB2

 

Business Challenge

You have two choices for scheduling maintenance: To do it whether the object needs it or not, or to determine which object needs maintenance. DASD MANAGER PLUS pinpoints and automates optimal DB2® object maintenance. Its powerful new reporting capability guides you to the statistics needed for space utilization management, including data necessary for I/O related performance optimization. And with DASD MANAGER PLUS you can automate the process of utility generation and execution.

Business Need

  • Enable trend analysis to study the current state plus historical trends
  • Collect comprehensive DB2 statistics, including historical and correlated column statistics
  • Validate capacity plans for future DASD needs
  • Save processing time while getting desired accuracy level
  • Improve application performance

Our Solution

Without a mechanism for helping you determine which maintenance actions to take, you must write your own SQL against available catalog statistics. DASD MANAGER PLUS provides you with comprehensive reports to use as a quick and accurate guide to detailed information. That way, regardless of how you approach your maintenance tasks, it will help you solve administration of those tasks. DASD MANAGER PLUS provides reports that assist you in performing DB2 functions such as resizing space allocations, generating and executing utilities, and maintaining object definitions to ensure peak performance.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Increases application performance with up-to-date access path information to the DB2 optimizer
  • Saves CPU and other system resources by executing maintenance utilities only when required
  • Improves ability to increase and maintain DB2 DASD efficiency
  • Increases application availability by eliminating any system downtime when gathering statistics
