Facilitate WLM Functions and Tools to Improve Your DB2 LUW Monitoring

100% of our audience learned something! If you don't have tools, you need to be clever about monitoring DB2 with built-in monitoring capabilities. During this show, Michael does a great job of explaining how DB2 Workload Manager (WLM) features and functions can be used for capturing and analyzing SQL, histograms, and system statistics. Enjoy the replay ...


Show Host Scott Hayes Commentary

Michael was kind enough to provide a PDF handout so you can easily reference his materials (copy and paste his sample commands). Nonetheless, make sure you watch the video replays as well so that you can fully understand and appreciate what Michael is teaching. Also, some of the commentary is funny.

During this show's quick commercial, DBI demonstrated AUTOMATED Advanced Index Benefit Analysis.
