The DB2 Universal Database Version 7 Control Center has enhanced its support of DB2 Server for VSE and VM databases. All DB2 Server for VSE and VM database objects can be viewed by the Control Center. There is also support for the CREATE INDEX, REORGANIZE INDEX, and UPDATE STATISTICS statements, and for the REBIND command. REORGANIZE INDEX and REBIND require a stored procedure running on the DB2 Server for VSE and VM hosts. This stored procedure is supplied by the Control Center for VSE and VM feature of DB2 Server for VSE and VM.
The fully integrated Control Center allows the user to manage DB2, regardless of the platform on which the DB2 server runs. DB2 Server for VSE and VM objects are displayed on the Control Center main window, along with DB2 Universal Database objects. The corresponding actions and utilities to manage these objects are invoked by selecting the object. For example, a user can list the indexes of a particular database, select one of the indexes, and reorganize it. The user can also list the tables of a database and run update statistics, or define a table as a replication source.
For information about configuring the Control Center to perform administration tasks on DB2 Server for VSE and VM objects, refer to the DB2 Connect User's Guide, or the Installation and Configuration Supplement.
