Thanks to the innovative patterns developed in Sentinet3, it is possible to monitor at the same time hundreds of parameters for more complex servers with a simple click.

In this article we will show you what you can do on a DB2 database.

DB2 is a RDBMS (Relational DataBase Management System), a database system based on the relational model,of the IBM brand, which now contends the first place on the market for relational databases with Oracle.

To support DBA, which manage the database, Sentinet3 provides the “Sentinet3 DB2 Pattern”, a complete control package that analyzes system utilization, availability, and the "health" of the same.

Sentiniet3 performs a continuous monitoring of IBM DB2 servers through the use of this pattern and alerts you of potential problems before they hit your system. It's like having a "Virtual DBA" on your side to recommend to you the best practices necessary to delete security vulnerabilities, improve replication, optimize performance, and much more.

  • Reachability of the machine
  • CPU utilization
  • Mem usage
  • Disk space
