Viewing a list of exceptions


Use the following procedure to view a list of exceptions.



  1. On EZDB2, hyperlink on Current Exceptions.An overview of background sampler system exceptions, thread exceptions, and outstanding messages for monitors in warning status is displayed.

    This view identifies immediately whether any exceptions have been detected, and shows the types detected. Hyperlinks lead to additional details.

    • Warning Monitors indicates the number of conditions that have been detected by timer-driven sampling monitors defined with warning thresholds. Typically, a predefined group of monitors is started automatically and remains active.
    • System Exceptions are conditions that are detected by a background sampler and are not governed by a threshold (for example, a problem with log archiving).
    • Thread Exceptions are thread-related conditions that a background sampler detects. Threshold conditions can be defined per attach type (for example, IBM IMS , CICS, or batch).

      The first three types generate warning messages that can be viewed while active, tracked historically in the journal log, or fed into an automated operator product like .

    • Warning Msg shows the most important of several conditions that are checked per interval or on request, as part of the total Db2 status and statistics data collection for windows mode views. These conditions can also be identified by one of the other exception samplers.
  2. To see exception conditions that background samplers have detected, hyperlink on either the Thread Exceptions or System Exceptions column.

    Scroll to the right to see more of the message text. For an explanation of the message, you can hyperlink on the Message ID column.

    For exceptions related to specific threads (DZ06nnn messages), the Mon Name column hyperlinks to the active thread view THDACTV. For most other exceptions, the Mon Name column hyperlinks to a plot view.

  3. Press F3 to return to STEXC.
