Copy-related exceptions thresholds


Use the exceptions in this category to identify conditions in which you need to copy an object, including the following conditions:

  • The existing COPY is out of date because of a reorg, rebuild, or load utility
  • The object data has changed significantly
  • Db2 status conditions

Important

If you specify TRIGNOSTATS Y, BMCTRIG does not analyze these exceptions.

The following table lists the copy-related exceptions:

Copy-related exceptions

Condition

Exception definition name

Use this exception to accomplish the following:

Copy Pend (Copy pending)

COPYPEND

Initiate an image copy on table spaces in copy pending status; if you specify Partlvl Y, BMCTRIG evaluates the exception at the partition level, otherwise, BMCTRIG evaluates the exception at the object level

Dirty Pages (IX Dirty Pages)

IXDIRTY 2

Initiate a copy of an index based on the percentage of index pages modified since the last image copy

Dirty Pages (TS Dirty Pages)

Percentage of pages modified since the last image copy

DIRTY1

Initiate a full image copy based on the percentage of modified pages.

DtyIncremt

Percentage of dirty pages

DIRTYIC1

(with the DIRTY exception) Initiate an incremental copy on objects based on the percentage of modified pages

Full Copy Age

Number of days since the last full image copy

FICAGE1

Initiate a full image copy of this object (evaluated at the partition level)

ICOPY pending

Informational copy pending

ICPYPEND

Initiate an image copy on tablespaces or indexes in informational copy pending stats

If you specify Partlvl Y, BMCTRIG evaluates the exception at the partition level. Otherwise, BMCTRIG evaluates the exception at the object level

Image Copy Age (IX Copy Age)

IXICAGE1

Initiate a copy of an index based on the number of days since the last image copy of this object (evaluated at the partition level)

Image Copy Age (TS Copy Age)

Number of days since the last image copy

COPYAGE1

Initiate a full or an incremental image copy of this object if a copy has not been taken in more than the specified number of days (evaluated at the partition level)

Load after copy

LOADCOPY2

Identify table spaces or indexes in which there has been a LOAD REPLACE after the last copy (evaluated at the partition level)

Mods since copy

Percentage of rows that have changed since last copy

COPYMODS2

Identify the percentage of rows or keys that have been modified since the last copy was made (evaluated at the partition level)

No RTS copy data

Object for which no DB2 RTS image copy statistics are detected.

NORTSCPY2

Identify objects for which no Db2 RTS image copy statistics exist (evaluated at the partition level)

NumIncremt

Number of incremental copies since the last full copy

COPY#IIC

Initiate a full image copy when you have made a specific number of incremental copies or more

Rebd after copy

REBDCOPY2

Initiate a copy of an index based on whether a REBUILD occurred after the last copy

Reorg after copy

REORCOPY2

Initiate a copy of a table space or index in which there has been a REORG after the last copy (evaluated at the partition level)

1 You can evaluate this exception using Db2 RTS or BMC statistics. Specify Db2 RTS Y or O in the exception options panel for BMCTRIG to evaluate the exception using Db2 RTS data. For more information, see Exception-data-source-groupings.

2 Specify Db2 RTS Y or O in the exception options panel (to indicate that you want to use Db2 real time statistics for analysis) to have this exception evaluated.
