Using the PACLOG logging environment modeling tool
The PACLOG logging environment modeling tool allows you to examine and view different logging scenarios for a selected Db2 subsystem in order to optimize the amount of DASD space required by the archive logs.
In addition, you can display active and archive log information. By using the modeling tool’s optimization capabilities, you may be able to dramatically reduce the amount of DASD space required by your logging environment.
The modeling tool provides the following information:
- Current logging environment statistics (Navigating-the-Logging-environment-panel)
- Information about the active logs (Navigating-the-Active-log-information-panel)
- Information about the archive logs (Navigating-the-Archive-log-copy-1-and-copy-2-information-panels)
- Existence of an archive copy 1 data set for each archive copy 2 data in the BSDS (Audit synchronization)
The modeling tool operates interactively through ISPF panels and includes a comprehensive help system that is automatically installed when you install PACLOG. For information about installing PACLOG, see
