354 Tivoli Business Systems Manager Version 2.1: End-to-End Business Impact Management
11.3.1 Integration setup
Perform the following steps to configure the NetView components.
1. Modify DSIPARM members:
– Ensure that the include statement for the DB2 message automation table
is uncommented in hlq.SGTMSAMP(IHS$MAT) for the line:
%INCLUDE IHSBMAT
– Ensure that the include statement for the DB2 command modules member
is uncommented in hlq.SGTMSAMP(IHS$CMD) for the line:
%INCLUDE IHSBCMD
– Ensure that the include statement for the DB2 OPF member is
uncommented in hlq.SGTMSAMP(IHS$OPF) for the line:
%INCLUDE IHSBOPR
– Ensure that the GROUP authorization statements for the DB2 operators
are uncommented in hlq.SGTMSAMP(IHS$CAT2) for the operators IHSB*
in the group NVOPS1 and NVOPS2
2. Concatenate the DB2 SDSNLOAD load library to the STEPLIB DD card in the
IBM Tivoli NetView for z/OS startup procedure. IBM Tivoli Business Systems
Manager supports data source integration for DB2 versions 5.1, 6.1, and 7.1.
If you are running multiple DB2’s at various levels, concatenate the earliest
version of the DB2 load library into the IBM Tivoli NetView for z/OS startup
procedure. Ensure that any earlier running version of DB2 has maintenance
applied to make it upwardly compatible with the later running version.
3. IHS$PARM members of hlq.SGTMSAMP may be modified to adjust polling
and discovery parameters, such as:
IHSBPOLL.THRESHOLD This parameter protects the Windows server from
DB2 message flooding. The default is 500
messages per interval.
IHSBPOLL.INTERVAL Initial poll interval in minutes for DB2 subsystem.
Individual intervals can be set from the IBM Tivoli
Business Systems Manager console. The default
is 15 minutes.
IHSBCLER.INTERVAL An interval for clearing a DB2 and DB2PM
exception that has not recurred in the last polling
interval. The default is 15 minutes.
IHSBRSLV.INTERVAL An interval for resolving a DB2 and DB2PM
exception that is cleared within the polling interval.
The default is 2 minutes.
IHS$DISC_FROM Limit of initial discovery messages. Default is 500.
