Processing options
Processing options
The following table lists the processing options, showing the availability by object type. Values in boldface are the default values.
Object types include INDEX (IX), INDEXSPACE (IS), TABLE SPACE (TS), and TABLE SPACE SET (TT).
Processing options
Option name | Value | Description | Object type | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
TT, TS | IX, IS | |||
DB2RTS | Y N (default) O | Instructs BMCTRIG to use RTS for exception evaluation
BMCTRIG no longer requires BMCSTATS data to be collected on an object to trigger an exception. | X | X |
DELETEAGE | 0 through 32767 | Specifies the number of days to keep exception rows BMCTRIG deletes all exception rows older than the number of days that you specify. You can turn off DELETEAGE to improve performance. To turn off DELETEAGE, remove the keyword from the syntax DELETEAGE will not delete rows that have an active automation registration. | X | X |
FKEY0MSG | Y (default) N | Indicates whether to issue message BMC16637 when indexes with no keys (0 FULLKEYCARD) are encountered The text of message BMC16637 is as follows: ** IX EVALUATION SKIPPED FOR IX ixowner.ixname (0 FULLKEYCARD) ** | X | X |
FORCEEXCEPTION | Y N (default) | Tells BMCTRIG whether to generate utilities for all objects that meet the name and type criteria Exceptions are not evaluated when you specify this option. You should specify this option with JCLGEN Y. | X | X |
INDEX | Y (default) N | Indicates whether to check all indexes that are associated with the table spaces for exception conditions If you also specify PARTITION, only indexes with a matching partition are processed. Specify Y to check all indexes and table spaces or N to check only table spaces. This option is also valid for TT and TS if you specify INDEX Y. | X | |
IXCOPY (works in conjunction with the IXESCALATE option) | Y N (default) | Indicates whether to generate image copies of the index BMCTRIG generates image copies only if the index can be copied. Otherwise, the IXESCALATE rule is used to determine whether to escalate to the table space or partition level or to skip the utility for the object. This option is also valid for TT and TS if you specify INDEX Y. | X | X |
IXESCALATE | Y (default) N A | Controls whether nonindex type utilities are escalated from index or index partition to the table space or table space partition. Some utilities are not run for indexes but are escalated to the table space level. Specify Y to escalate to table space if the utility does not support indexes. Specify N to skip utility generation if the utility does not support indexes. Specify A to always escalate index to the table space regardless of utility support. In case of conflict, IXCOPY overrides IXESCALATE. | X | X |
MSGLEVEL | 0 (default) 1 | Specifies normal messaging (0) or additional informational messages about progress, timestamps, and default options settings (1) | X | X |
PARTITION | 1 through 4096 | Specifies individual partitions for BMCTRIG to analyze You can repeat this option multiple times if you need BMCTRIG to analyze multiple partitions. If you omit this option, BMCTRIG analyzes all partitions unless an object set is used to limit partitions. | X | X |
REPORT | Y (default) N | Indicates whether to print the statistics and the exception report | X | X |
RESUME | Y N (default) | Indicates whether to read the exception table and generate corrective actions for any exception where the active indicator is set to Y | X | X |
SAVESTATS | Y (default) N | Indicates whether to save noted exceptions in the Exceptions table | X | X |
SYSTEMTRIGGERS | Y N | Specifies whether to use the exception thresholds and corrective actions that are defined in the DASD MANAGER PLUS tables when evaluating problem conditions and corrective actions. If you do not specify SYSTEMTRIGGERS, the value specified for SYSTRIG in the installation options module is used. For more information on SYSTEMTRIGGERS, see System-triggers. | X | X |
TRIGNOCOPY | Y N (default) | Indicates whether to bypass the analysis of exceptions categorized with a type of COPY during BMCTRIG exception processing Specify N (default) to allow analysis of COPY exceptions or Y to bypass the analysis of these exceptions. | X | X |
TRIGNOREORG | Y N (default) | Indicates whether to bypass the analysis of exceptions categorized with a type of REORG during BMCTRIG exception processing Specify N (default) to allow analysis of REORG exceptions or Y to bypass the analysis of these exceptions. | X | X |
TRIGNOSTATS | Y N (default) | Indicates whether to bypass the analysis of exceptions categorized with a type of STATS during BMCTRIG exception processing Specify N (the default value) to allow analysis of STATS exceptions or Y to bypass the analysis of these exceptions. | X | X |
