IBM DB2
The management pack for IBM DB2 is one of the major databases represented in our vROps Database Solution. This management pack is key for any VMware administrator who wants to ensure their databases are healthy, available, and unaffected by performance degradation. It also provides in-depth metrics down to the query level, which allow users to ensure the actual database's health as well as the underlying infrastructure's:
The DB2 on VM dashboard
When looking at performance, there are two primary dashboards that the administrator can use. The first is the DB2 on VM dashboard. This dashboard helps give the administrator a view of any DB2 database that they are virtualizing. Like the dashboard shown in the management pack for MS SQL, this dashboard's primary feature is that it shows this product and how it relates to VMware. The ability to see both these metrics side by side allows us to quickly diagnose the root cause of any issue.
