IBM Data Server Manager
in a diverse user
environment
Ben Lenard, Argonne
National Laboratory ,
Client
In most corporate organizations, Windows is the dominant platform for developers, DBA’s, System
administrators, and users. At Argonne National Laboratory, the desktop OS'es range from Mac, SLES, Ubuntu,
RHEL, Debian, and Windows. That being said, I arrived in an environment where developers and users either
solely used the DB2 CLI or they were forced into running Windows within a VM so that they can use IBM Data
Studio. IBM DataServer Manager has allowed me to engage the developers and users so that we can get the
most benefit out of our DB2 LUW investment while producing better code. DSM has allowed me to create a
self-service environment so that developers can understand their code.

Thursday 9 – 11:30am 3141AIntro. Secrets of the Pros: Using Data Server Manager to Monitor, manage and Mitigate Performance Problems Marichu Scanlon, IBM, IBM Employee; Chi- Man Sizto, IBM, IBM Employee This hands-on-lab will teach you how to use the latest version of IBM Data Server Manager for Linux, Unix and Windows to diagnose and resolve performance problems. You will work on four use cases where a query is not performing as manifested in the CPU, I/O, Memory and Locking information. A fifth use case will go beyond the monitoring diagnosis to show how you can mitigate the current problem by tuning a single query or the entire workload the query belongs to.

Demo Room Pedestal Product Statement Abstract IBM DB2, DB2 on Cloud, dashDB, and DSM (1) Remove Barriers to Manage and Access Large Scale, Hybrid Data Environments The one tool console, Data Server Manager, helps manage environments and access data in large scale hybrid deployments. We’ll show how DBAs manage deployment topology including DB2 pureScale and DB2 HADR data stores, and how developers and business analysts use Data Server Manager to access data. IBM DB2, DB2 on Cloud, dashDB, and DSM (2) Analyze Federated Data across Heterogeneous Environments from Ground to the Cloud Manage data from ground to the cloud is a team sport. This demo shows how federation virtualizes a database with data from on-premises, hosted and managed services. We’ll show how DB2, dashDB, data Server Manager, and Fluid Query are used to define and manage a federated analytics environment. IBM DB2, DB2 on Cloud, dashDB, and DSM (3) Move, Deliver, and Leverage Data Swiftly and Securely Many front-end applications now require migrating data from on-prem. Environments to the cloud. See how you can move data schema and supporting objects, secure the data, determine and configure repository for performance needs, and use the common analytics engine to support dynamic data movement.
