The Veritas High Availability Agent for DB2 introduces the following changes:
The attributes StartUpOpt and ShutDownOpt provide new start up and shut down options. Using the StartUpOpt attribute, you can start the instance or partition, activate database commands after processes start, or create customized start up sequences. Using the ShutDownOpt attribute, you can perform a normal stop or customize your shut down sequence.
In previous releases when you enabled in-depth monitoring (IndepthMonitor=1), it executed a default SQL query. The in-depth monitor now allows you to classify actions for DB2 errors according to their severity. You can associate predefined actions with each error code with a monitoring script that you can customize. You can find a sample of in-depth monitoring script in the following directory: /etc/VRTSagents/ha/conf/Db2udb/sample_db2udb.
You must install the custom script in the /opt/VRTSagents/ha/bin/Db2udb directory to enable indepth monitoring.
You can enable the AgentDebug attribute to get more debugging information from the agent and the database.
