QMF reports


Important

BMC plans to deprecate the QMF reports from DASD MANAGER PLUS for DB2. We will formally remove support for the QMF reports in October 2022. 


DASD MANAGER PLUS provides sample QMF queries that produce reports from the historical statistics database.

You can select one or more different views for the sample reports. The table below shows views that the CNTL library member ASURVIEW provides for use by the QMF reporting procedures.

Views for QMF reports

View

Description

BMCQMF.RS_MO_AV_IXPART

This view produces averages for statistics by month on all indexes in the statistics database for the last three months. The view points to the BMCQMF.RS_USER_IXPART view.

BMCQMF.RS_MO_AV_TSPART

This view produces averages by month over the last three months for all table spaces in the statistics database. The view points to the BMCQMF.RS_USER_TABLEPART view.

BMCQMF.RS_MO_AV_TSPART12

This view produces averages for statistics by month on all table spaces in the statistics database for the last twelve months. The view points to the BMCQMF.RS_USER_TSPART view.

BMCQMF.RS_TABLEPART

This view provides the base for BMCQMF views that require the grouping of data by monthly periods (includes YYMM). The view points to the BMCATSnn.RS_TABLEPART table (where nn is the release level).

BMCQMF.RS_USER_DBIX

This view provides a count of the number of indexes in each database. The view points to the BMCQMF.RS_MO_AV_IXPART view.

BMCQMF.RS_USER_DBTS

This view creates summary statistics from the average table space statistics for each database in the statistics tables. The view points to the BMCQMF.RS_MO_AV_TSPART view.

BMCQMF.RS_USER_IXPART

This view selects detail statistics on all indexes for which statistics have been collected within the last three months and groups them by database and month. The view points to the BMCATSnn.RS_INDEXPART table (where nn is the release level).

BMCQMF.RS__USER_TBCOUNTS

This view creates a count of the number of tables in each table space. The view points to the BMCQMF.RS_USER_TBNAMES view.

BMCQMF.RS_USER_TBNAMES

This view selects all table names in the statistics tables where statistics have been collected within the last three months. The view points to the BMCATSnn.RS_TABLES table (where nn is the release level).

BMCQMF.RS_USER_TSPART

This view selects detail information about table spaces from statistics entries less than three months old. The view points to the BMCATSnn.RS_TABLEPART table (where nn is the release level).

BMCQMF.RS_USER_TSPART12

This view selects detail statistics for all table spaces for which statistics have been collected within the last twelve months and groups them by database and month. The view points to the BMCATSnn.RS_TABLEPART table (where nn is the release level).

DASD MANAGER PLUS provides the sample QMF reports (in the table below) to access useful information in the statistics tables.

Use the following procedure to set up the sample QMF reports feature.

To implement the sample QMF Report Facility

  1. Build views for the DASD MANAGER PLUS sample QMF reports. Run SPUFI and specify the CNTL data set and member ASURVIEW.

    Important

    If you are installing DASD MANAGER PLUS on multiple Db2 subsystems, run this SPUFI job for each Db2 SSID that uses the DASD MANAGER PLUS QMF reports.

  2. Import the DASD MANAGER PLUS QMF Reports into QMF.
    1. Edit all members of the QMFPROC data set, as follows:
      • Change HLQ to the high-level qualifier for DASD MANAGER PLUS data sets at your installation.
      • Change U******* to the logon ID of the person running the QMF install.
    2. From QMF, execute the following command:

       IMPORT PROC FROM 'HLQ.QMFPROC' (M=LOADPROC)

      Important

      Type the data set name in capital letters. You can execute the IMPORT command from the first QMF panel or from the Query panel.

  3. Press F2 or enter the RUN command to run the procedure which imports all of the BMC-supplied DASD MANAGER PLUS QMF reports.

 

Tip: For faster searching, add an asterisk to the end of your partial query. Example: cert*
