Shared infrastructure components


SQL Performance also uses the following infrastructure components:

DB2 Component Services (DBC)

DBC provides a persistent z/OS subsystem address space into which BMC products can dynamically initialize their own product services.

Other shared infrastructure components (such as the Data Collector, NGL, DB2 Product Configuration, and RTCS) require the DBC subsystem.

Next Generation Logger (NGL)

NGL is a logging facility that logs and retrieves data based on application-defined keys and a time span. NGL runs as a service within the DBC subsystem and relies on the Runtime Component System (RTCS) for registry services.

Apptune requires NGL for archiving trace data sets.

Runtime Component System (RTCS)

RTCS runs as a started task and provides programming services to various BMC mainframe products. RTCS is designed for continuous operation and seldom, if ever, needs to be stopped.

DB2 Product Configuration

The DB2 Product Configuration technology separates product (or solution) installation from configuration. Through its online interface, DB2 Product Configuration simplifies configuration and deployment by setting default option values for you. (You can change the values, if needed.) DB2 Product Configuration panels simplify navigation by allowing you to expand or contract sections as needed. Also, you can link to DB2 Product Configuration from within your product or solution, thus maintaining a consistent look and feel, and retaining your changes from version to version.
