Defining the connection to the BMC AMI Ops Monitor for Db2 - Data Collector (DBC)

Use the following procedure to activate the functions that are provided by the BMC AMI Ops Monitor for Db2 - Data Collector component. The data collector is a component of the DBC.

You can define the Data Collector connection during BMC AMI Ops configuration, or you can do it manually as described in the following procedure.

To define the connection to the 

BMC AMI OpsM for Db2

 - Data Collector


Activate the interface from the BBI-SS PAS to the Data Collector as follows:

  1. Concatenate the Data collector BMCLINK library (if it is different than the BMC AMI OpsM for Db2 BMCLINK) in the BMC AMI OpsM for Db2 BBI-SS PAS JCL to the STEPLIB DD.  If during installation you chose to customize the runtime LLQs, use the following list of SMP/E Target load library names to concatenate the required runtime libraries.

    • BBLINK
    • DOMLINK
    • PSSLINK
    • DBCLINK
    • USCLINK

    For more information, see the Installation System documentation.

    Warning

    Important

    If you are installing the OPERTUNE for DB2 product you should include the OPERTUNE load library, DDTLINK (if BMCLINK was not created). Including the load library to activate the API will also activate the BMC AMI OpsM for Db2 interface to OPERTUNE that allows you to change ZPARMs from views. Before any change is allowed, security is checked in both products.

    This step activates the connection logic and allows trace data that was collected in the Data Collector to be retrieved and displayed in BMC AMI OpsM for Db2 views.

    You need to indicate the Data Collector to which BBI-SS PAS should connect. You can direct the PAS to connect to a specific Data Collector by specifying the parameter CDC in the BBPARM member DMRBEXxx for each Db2 target.

  2. Ensure that the DBC specified by the CDC parameter is available. The DBC is the component that runs the data collector. For more information on setting up the DBC with the data collector, see Administering BMC Execution Component for z/OS (DBC).

  3. To enable hyperlinks from BMC AMI OpsM for Db2 views to related reports in the other Db2 Performance products and some additional BMC AMI OpsM for Db2 - Data Collector reports, manually move the customized CLIST DOMC from hilevel.BBSAMP to hilevel.SBBCLIB and ensure that hilevel.SBBCLIB is allocated in the BMC AMI Ops CLIST by the BBCLIB DD statement after hilevel.BBCLIB.

  4. Ensure that the password that you included in the BMC AMI Ops BMCPSWD data set (BDSTBL3x for BMC AMI OpsM for Db2, SPDTBL3x for the BMC System Performance for Db2solution, or MV2TBL3x for the BMC AMI Ops for Db2 solution) is also included in the Data Collector HLQ.BMCPSWD data set.

    Warning

    Important

    If you need to make changes to the Administration dialog when the Data Collector is running and the BMC AMI OpsM for Db2 – Data Collector component is not yet configured, you can use the LGCISPF member of the UBMCCLIB data set to invoke a Report Manager session and access the online Administration panels.
