Spotlight on DB2 6.10 - Release Notes

Database Analysis drilldown History tab

The History tab on the Database Analysis drilldown shows the command history for all partitions of a database. The information is taken from the database history file. You can check this tab to see when database objects were created, altered, or dropped; when tables were reorganized; when a database was backed up or restored; when tablespaces or tables were quiesced; and more.

When a database row is selected, the tab shows the command history for all partitions. When a partition row is selected, the tab shows the history for that partition.

Note: By default, commands are listed in chronological order, from oldest to most recent. You can reverse that order by clicking the Start Time column header.

Columns in the History tab

All columns available for the History tab are listed below in alphabetic order. Initially, the tab contains Spotlight's default column selection. You can choose which columns to display and organize them in any order from left to right using the Organize Columns function. This can be selected from the right-click menu for column headers.
