Display or messages to monitoring the available private storage

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

We think it would be very useful to have messages or displays to monitor the available private storage (below the line, above the line and above the bar).

In other products have message or displays to monitor the private storage:

             - In MQ we have messages like CSQY221I, CSQY222E, CSQY223I, CSQY220I, CSQY225E,....

             - In IRLM we have the command /F irlmproc,STATUS,STOR

Would it be possible to implement message or display to monitor the available private storage?

Thnks for your attention

    Hello

    Our goal is will make preemptive alerts for shortages in 24, 31, and 64 bit private memory. In other products, we have implemented automations with existing messages related with shortage private memory.

    IFCID 225 gives us useful data for 31-bit such as QW0225RG, QW0225A, QW0225RG, QW0225GM, QW0225VR, QW0225FX, or QW0225GS.

    However, for 24- or 64-bit, we do not see any fields that collect information similar to those for 31-bit in the IFCID 225.

    Dear Aaron, Thank you for submitting this enhancement request. Our Db2 for z/OS SME for this component area reviewed your request and indicated different vendors already monitor Db2's storage consumption as well as the availability of the different areas/regions that Db2 uses. These vendor monitors use different storage statistics made available from IFCID 225.

    Is this information helpful to you? If not, can you be more specific as to what you are looking for, such as for available private storage other than Db2's DBM1 and DIST access spaces that is provided via the IFCID 225?

    Please let us know.

    Sincerely,

    The Db2 for z/OS team
