Monitor relational database activity

You can rely on control language (CL) commands, all of which provide similar information, but in different ways, to give you a view of work on an iSeries™ server.

• Work with jobs in a distributed relational database
  The Work with Job (WRKJOB) command presents the Work with Job menu. This menu allows you to select options to work with or to change information related to a specified job. Enter the command without any parameters to get information about the job you are currently using.
• Work with user jobs in a distributed relational database
  If you know the user profile (user name) being used by a job, you can use the Work with User Jobs (WRKUSRJOB) command to display or change job information. Enter the command without any parameters to get a list of the jobs in the server with your user profile.
• Work with active jobs in a distributed relational database
  Use the Work with Active Jobs (WRKACTJOB) command if you want to monitor the jobs running for several users or if you are looking for a job and you do not know the job name or the user ID.
• Work with commitment definitions in a distributed relational database
  Use the Work with Commitment Definitions (WRKCMTDFN) command if you want to work with the commitment definitions on the server.
• Track request information with the job log of a distributed relational database
  Every job on the iSeries server has a job log that contains information related to requests entered for a job.
• Locate distributed relational database jobs
  When you are looking for information about a distributed relational database job on an application requester (AR) and you know the user profile that is used, you can find that job by using the Work with User Jobs (WRKUSRJOB) command.
