Using historical reports
The DBA Toolkit generates reports that help you stay informed about your databases. You can use these reports to evaluate the current state of your databases, to research exceptions, and to track trends.
State reports offer a detailed, comprehensive view of the current state of your IMS data. You can view state reports for database, partition, area, and data set objects. If you have a license for Database Advisor, current state reports can also be used to chart a data forecast that graphically represents the comparison of the current state of a key element to the threshold value that is defined for the key element.
History reports display data in graphs and tables that you can customize to control the type of data in the report. You can view historical reports for database, partition, area, data set, and segment objects. You can also export tabular data for use in third-party spreadsheets.
Compare History reports display historic information about multiple databases and partitions so that you can visually compare the information in a graph or table format.
Job History reports provide historic information about utility jobs that have executed against IMS databases in the selected system. You can access job history reports at the host-connection level and the IMSPLEX level.
To view reports, in the Navigation window right-click the object for which you want to view a report and choose Reports.
