How Does EG Enterprise Monitor DB2 Purescale

eG Enterprise can monitor DB2 Purescale in an agentless manner. The external agent used to monitor the DB2 Purescale server should be deployed on a any remote host in the environment.

Prerequisites for monitoring DB2 Purescale

It is recommended that you create a special user for this purpose. The steps for creating such a user are detailed below:

1. Create a user group - say, eg_mon_grp - on the operating system hosting the DB2 server.

2. Create a user - say, eg_user - at the OS-level, and add this new user to the group created in step 1.

Once the user is created, use the same user to connect to DB2 Purescale and gather metrics.
