Enable Access to Log Records

Activate Db2 Monitor Trace Class 1 ("TRACE(MONITOR) CLASS(1) ") so that Db2 allows Extract to read the active log. The default destination of OPX is sufficient, because Oracle GoldenGate does not use a destination.

To Start the Trace Manually

  1. Log on to Db2 as a Db2 user who has the TRACE privilege or at least SYSOPR authority.

  2. Issue the following command:

    start trace(monitor) class(1) scope(group)

To Start the Trace Automatically When Db2 is Started

Do either of the following:

  • Set MONITOR TRACE to "YES" on the DSNTIPN installation tracing panel.

  • Set 'DSN6SYSP MON=YES ' in the DSNTIJUZ installation job, as described in the Db2 UDB Installation Guide.

Note:

The primary authorization ID, or one of the secondary authorization IDs, of the ODBC plan executor also must have the MONITOR2 privilege.
