Default Dashboard for DB2 Monitoring

🎯 Goal : 

Enable database administrators and operations teams to quickly assess the health and performance of DB2 environments without additional setup or custom dashboards.

📊 Suggested Dashboard Structure: 

Overview

Total DB2 Hosts monitored

Total active Instances

Total active Members

Global health status (green/yellow/red)

DB2 Hosts

CPU and Memory utilization per host

Current active connections

Average response latency

Disk usage (critical DB2 file systems)

DB2 Instances

Active connections

Transactions throughput

Deadlocks detected

Failed SQL statements

Average query execution time

DB2 Members

Connection distribution per member

Latency per member

Lock timeouts

Replication status (if applicable)

📌 Benefits: 

Standardization: Delivers essential DB2 metrics pre-configured.

Productivity: Reduces the need for manual dashboard creation.

Comparability: aligns Instana’s DB2 monitoring with what Dynatrace offers, easing migration and adoption.

Faster troubleshooting: provides a single pane of glass for DB2 performance monitoring.

    Instana supports ~300 technologies, and we don't have a default dashboard for any of them except for platforms: K8s, OCP, VMware, etc.

    Since Db2 is not a platform, we don't have plans to create a default dashboard for it.
