How Do I Monitor Open Database Sessions Associated With DB2 ODBC Connections You can use the Event Monitors feature that is present in the DB2 System Monitor. The Event Monitors feature allows you to create and activate a monitor that logs for one or more of each of the following events: Deadlocks Statements Transactions Connections Database Buffer pools Table spaces Tables Read or Written These monitors may be created and activated using the following syntax: db2 connect to <database> db2 "create event monitor <monitor name> for <event(s)> write to file 'filename'" mkdir <directory for event file> db2 "set event monitor <monitor name> state 1" For example Unix db2 connect to sample db2 "create event monitor connmon for connections write to file '/tmp/connections/connmon.log'" mkdir /tmp/connections db2 "set event monitor connmon state 1" Windows db2 connect to sample db2 "create event monitor connmon for connections write to file 'C:\Temp\connections\connmon.log'" mkdir C:\Temp\connections db2 "set event monitor connmon state 1" Use db2evmon -path UNKNOWN tag: http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:path to format and display the contents of the log. For example: Unix db2evmon -path /tmp/connections/connmon.log Windows db2evmon -path C:\Temp\connections\connmon.log Finally, deactivate event monitors by setting the state to 0. For example: db2 connect to sample db2 "set event monitor connmon state 0"
