Share Your ExperienceProduct Overview
The architecture of DASD MANAGER PLUS for DB2 comprises several key components. The Space Monitor continuously tracks space utilization for DB2 objects, including databases, table spaces, and index spaces. The Threshold Manager allows administrators to define thresholds for space usage, triggering alerts and actions when exceeded.
The JCL Generator creates the necessary JCL to perform space maintenance tasks, such as extending or reorganizing objects. These components interact through the z/OS environment, utilizing DB2 catalog information and ISPF panels for configuration and monitoring. The tool does not expose a direct API.
Communication relies on standard z/OS protocols. The Space Monitor retrieves data from the DB2 catalog. The Threshold Manager uses configuration files to determine actions.
The JCL Generator creates batch jobs that are submitted for execution. The tool integrates with z/OS security, using RACF or equivalent for authentication and access control. The primary data store is the DB2 catalog, which is monitored for space usage information.
The tool's design emphasizes automation and proactive management to ensure optimal DB2 performance and prevent space-related issues.
