Hi,
Most of the information you want access to should be available from the dbacockpit.
See the following guide:
[SAP DBA COCKPIT - Flight Plans for DB2 LUW Database Administrators|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/db6?rid=/library/uuid/10a5f238-d09a-2c10-9a8a-d0a64f6a506b]

SAP PI /DB 2 - Monitor volumes

Hello,
We have SAP PI 7.1 on DB2 installation ,how do we monitor at Database level the DB2 volumes /DB2 admin ?
Thank you.

We do the same as Marco for exactly the same reasons. The Basis team can never really tell how we look on space without asking our z/OS SMS person. Combined with the fact that you have to run a rather long-running DB02 job every day (if you want daily growth information) to collect dataset storage utilization and it is one of the real downsides of SAP on DB2 z/OS. This has NOT been our experience with SAP on other database platforms.

How can I control the PP (monitor) volume using my computer volume controls.

I'm no longer able to control the PP (monitor) volume using my computer volume controls. I've always controlled the monitor volume using my computer volume levels, but starting today, that has changed.
The volume is just playing at the level recorded with no way for me to turn down or up.
I performed a disc repair and that didn't solve the problem.

Does the OS volume control affect anything? System beeps and sych?

Steps needed or any guidance to connect SAP with DB2,

Hi Experts,
I need detailed steps to connect SAP with DB2 server. If any standard document or any one is having any docs / hints can provide , it would be a great help to me.

Hello Mamata,
If your current ECC 6.0 is also on DB2/400, you can use DBCO - outlined in the following blog.
/people/sap.user72/blog/2006/08/31/configure-dbco-database-multiconnect-on-ibm-i5iseries
If the retail business can be moved to SAP solution, plain SAP RFC just works fine. If not, you can install a SAP gateway instance on DB2.
There are many options. It could be hard to identify the best choice without a detailed review/analysis.
Best regards,
Victor

Latency/way to turn monitor volume down

hello. I've been experiencing some heavy latency and want to be able to turn the volume down on the track i'm recording on without turning the input level down...is this possible?
Basically, i want to be able to hear the tracks i've recorded but not the one i'm recording since it's distracting since it's off time.
thanks.

How do you turn the monitor volume off exactly?
Open Track Info and change the Monitor setting from "on" to "off"

SAP B2B dashboard monitoring and it's features with examples/screenshots

Hi All,
I'm looking for SAP B2B dashboard monitoring and it's features with examples/screenshots. Can you guys help to detail it out pls
thx
mike

Hi Michael,
I have the impression that there is some misunderstanding wrt b2b monitoring in PI/PO. Let me shed some light into this.
The b2b monitoring as part of the b2b add-on and PI is actually an enhancement of the standard message monitor in PI. We have implemented a b2b view which shows you the b2b specific attributes such as sender id, ack status, interchange number, etc., instead of the PI specific information such as message GUID, sender party and component, etc. In addition, you can search the messages based on the b2b specific attributes. This works in tight integration with the Trading Partner Management (TPM) that we ship together with the b2b add-on where those partner specific attributes are maintained. You can access the b2b view either directly via the url mentioned above,.i.e., with alias /b2bmon or you can go to PI message monitoring via alias /pimon, this opens the a2a view, from here you can switch to the b2b view.
The b2b view is only available as of 7.4 SP9 and b2b add-on SP4 as mentioned in the note 1815991 - Enhanced Local Message Monitor for B2B Messages. Since you are on a lower SP, this is the reason that you cannot see it.
Whereas the local monitoring in PI gives you a status overview of your messages processed on the very PI runtime component, the Message Flow Monitor in SAP Solution Manager can be used for tracking your message from end-to-end, i.e., it provides you the status on each runtime component that the message goes through. Here, we also do support b2b scenarios. Like in the local b2b view, we show the ack status for technical and functional acks as well. Furthermore, we have built in a b2b specific search based on the TPM attributes.
I planned to write a blog on the new b2b view but haven't found the time so far, so stay tuned.

DB2 Monitoring

My goal is to perform an OLE DB synthetic transaction against an AS400 DB2 system using the SCOM authoring OLE DB template. I am looking for anyone with experience locating and installing the appropriate DB2 provider. I have tried the IBM Data Server
Runtime Client which contains and ODBC provider along with the following connection string but the query just times out.
Provider=IBMDADB2.DBCOPY1;DataSource=servername;UserID=username;Password=Password;
I know there are some 3rd party MPs that do DB2 monitoring but I'm not interested in those at this time.
Thanks

Hi!
Haven't done that for DB2 yet but for Oracle already. The following sites may help:
Do that stuff similar with Oracle:

I'm not sure that it is actually possible to parameterize the DYNR. Anyway, it would still leave you the problem that the field descriptors in the command interface would all be wrong.
My suggestion for getting around this is to make several recordings using the SAPGUI command, creating a new command for each screen change. You can then edit the script so that the different cases between which you want to differentiate are separated by IF...ELSEIF...ENDIF commands.
You might then have something that looks like this (pseudocode):
* SAPGUI command for common "opening part" of transaction
IF (subtype = 'LA').
*SAPGUI covering screen 2001
ELSEIF (subtype = 'LW').
* SAGPGUI covering screen 2000
ENDIF.
* SAPGUI for common "closing part" of transaction - if relevant.

Dear experts,
while taking backup, i'm facing the problem.
now i'm doing backup to Drive.
backup to tape drive is getting failed at state "initaliziting tape drive"
in DB13 i had scheduled one BDA action "initalize tape in drive"
but this is getting failed.
how to enable tape drive from DB2 control center / command line. ?
In how many way we can archive the log ?
what happens when we schedule reogranization ?
how to increase buffer pool ?
present buffer quality in my system is 45% (BP_STD_16k)
system log directory is not having enough space, how to increase this log directory ?
Important things to be concentrated in maintaining DB2 ?
how to improve Hit ration, and value range for hit ration ?
please give some important tips and point to monitor and control DB2.
thanking you in all

Hi,
for administration tasks you should have a look at the
Database Administration Guide 'SAP on IBM DB2 Universal Database for UNIX and Windows'
for a description of the DB2 log file management:
IBM DB2 Universal Database for UNIX and Windows: New Log File Management
DBA Cockpit related information is contained in:
Database Administration Using the DBA Cockpit
All documents can be found over the "Administration" section of the SDN.
The CLP commands for backups can be found in the DB2 Command Reference and concepts about backups you can find in the DB2 Data Recovery and High Availability Guide.
See: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=71&uid=swg27009552

Migrate SAP from DB2 9.5 to DB2 9.7 using System copy

Hello,
We are migrating our SAP systems to new hardware and we are also planning to upgrade our database from DB2 9.5 to DB2 9.7. So my question is can we take a db backup of our current SAP system which is on DB2 9.5 and install the target SAP instance directly on DB2 9.7 during the System copy?
Or do we need to install the target SAP instance on DB2 9.5 and then upgrade the system to DB2 9.7 after the System copy procedure.
Please let me know as we need to start the migration at the earliest.
Thanks
D

Hi Deepak,
Yes, that is possible (but only offline backup). But for the new features like reclaimable tablespace (to lower the high watermark)
it's better to export/import with systemcopy.
Also with systemcopy you can use index compression.
After backup and restore you can have also reclaimable tablespace, but you have to create new tablespaces
and then work with db6conv and online table move to move one tablespace online to the new one.
Best regards,
Joachim

Saving Data in SAP and DB2 database

Hi All,
I have an SAP application in which 10 fields are there for the user to enter. Out this 10 fields i need to save 5 fields in SAP database and another 5 in DB2 database.Please help me how to achieve this.

Hi Jesse,
The Citadel database is not a relational database. It's highly optimized for storing lower-rate (non-waveform) channel-by-channel, or "trace" measurement data. Another option you can consider is using DSC and Citadel on the server then writing a utility to export the data from Citdael to an SQL database. --That would solve the problem of having to write a logger application from scratch. You would only have to write the relatively simple application to export the data from Citadel and import it into a relational database.
You could accomplish this two ways. First, DSC includes a set of VIs that will retrieve historical data from Ciatdel. You could use LabVIEW to parse this data and write it to a table in a relational database. Second, Citadel actually includes a locally accessible ODBC interface. (You can query Citadel using an SQL query from the local computer). You could query Citadel using this interface, then write the result to a table in a relational database.
To view Citadel in its native format or query a Citadel database using ODBC from a remote comptuer that comptuer would need to have a licensed DSC RTS installed.

How to connect from SAP on DB2 for i5/OS to external oracle database

Hello,
I managed to retrieve data from an external DB2 for i5/OS database using ABAP Native SQL running on another i5/OS server.
I also managed to retrieve data from an external oracle database using ABAP Native SQL running on another Windows/Oracle server.
Now i want to use ABAP Native SQL running on an i5/OS and retrieve data from an external Oracle database?
I suppose i need software to connect fron I5/OS to this oracle database like you need extra software when you want to connect to an i5/OS database if you are running SAP on Windows (read note 751451)
Does anybody know?
Thanks in advance
Bertil Rebergen

Hello Bertil,
to access an Oracle database from within an SAP system you'll need SAP's database interface library specific for Oracle plus the Oracle database client library utilized by SAP's database interface library. Both need to be available for the operating system your application server runs on, i.e. IBM i5/OS in your scenario.
Since the required Oracle database client software is not available for IBM i5/OS your SAP application servers on IBM i5/OS cannot access your Oracle database.
To overcome this limitation you would need to add at least one additional SAP application server based on Windows or Linux/Power to your current SAP system utilizing IBM DB2 for i5/OS. Since the required software libraries are available for these two operating systems you will be able to solve your problem this way.
Best Regards, Christian Hoelters, SAP AG.

Better you continue with that and plan and document the file system and size strategy.
'SAP Sizing' is very important, utilize it - service.sap.com/sizing
After you understand the guides' advice and explore standard sizing, then share your queries with us.
This concept is very detailed one and really the 'subjective' one - depends case to case - customer to customer - ultimately the SIZING will help you - It can't be explained clearly in a discussion thread 'initially'

Problem in starting SAP and DB2

Hi ,
I am facing problem in starting SAP,
I have installed the NW7.0 with DB2 trial version on SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 10 SP2.
When I try start the SAP , It gives me the error
Why do I receive the error, "SQL6048N A communication error occurred during START or STOP DATABASE MANAGER processing." ?
Please can any one help me.
Thanks,
Sridhar

Dear Sridhar,
A TCP/IP communication error occurred while the START or STOP DATABASE MANAGER command was trying to establish connection with all the nodes defined in the sqllib/db2nodes.cfg configuration file.
possible solutions to fix SQL6048N:
Ensure that the node has the proper authorization defined in the .rhosts or the host.equiv files.
Ensure that the application is not using more than (500 + (1995 - 2 * total_number_of_nodes)) file descriptors at the same time.
Ensure all the Enterprise Server Edition environment variables are defined in the profile file.
Ensure the profile file is written in the Korn Shell script format.
Ensure that all the host names defined in the db2nodes.cfg file in the sqllib directory are defined on the network and are running.
For my case, itu2019s as simple as updating the hostname information defined in sqllib/db2nodes.cfg configuration file!
The db2start command rocks again after updating the hostname information!
If youu2019ve the same DB2 SQL6048N error code when starting DB2 Instance processes with db2start command, confirm the hostname in sqllib/db2nodes.cfg is correct, especially after changing Linux networking information, such as the server hostname!
Definetely it will work when you update the host information in sqllib/db2nodes.cfg.
Please let me know if you have still issues.
Thanks
