Understanding Distributed Processing Inside DB2 for z/OS

Overview DB2 users are seeing more and more of their workload originating off the mainframe. This shift to more distributed processing presents new challenges for the DB2 performance specialist and brings up new questions about how to manage performance for distributed threads. This webcast will use BMC's MAINVIEW for DB2 product to answer many questions about distributed processing, including where these threads originate, what statistics and accounting data is available about distributed threads, and why WLM definitions and z/OS enclaves are important in this area. The presenter of this webcast provides practical knowledge identifying performance metrics associated with distributed processing.
