gw_comm_errors
counter

Description:  The number of times that a communication error (SQL30081) occurred while a DCS application was attempting to connect to a host database, or while it was processing an SQL statement.

Usage:  By monitoring the number of communication errors over time, you can assess whether your DB2 Connect gateway has connectivity problems with a particular host database. You can establish what you consider to be a normal error threshold, so that any time the number of errors exceeds this threshold an investigation of the communication errors should be made.

Use this element for problem determination, in conjunction with the communication error logged in db2diag.log.
