Host table
The Host table contains details of engine systems where jobs are started, and of remote nodes used by an engine system to distribute parallel jobs.
The HostDetail table contains information about the available
system resources of every engine system and compute node in the Host
table.
| Column name | Column type code | Description |
|---|---|---|
| HostName | 80 | The name of the DataStage engine or remote system. The name is obtained by executing the hostname command or from the DS_HOSTNAME_ALIAS environment variable if it is set. The name is normalized to uppercase. |
| InstallationDir | 255 | The location of the DSODB directory
associated with an installation of the DataStage engine on the host,
which can be used to distinguish between multiple installations of IBM® InfoSphere® Information Server on
the same system. If this column is a string consisting of a single hyphen (-), the host represents a remote node rather than an engine node. The combination of HostName and InstallationDir is unique. |
| CreatedTimestamp | Tim | The time that this row was inserted into the table. |
| MonStartTimestamp | Tim | The latest time that an EngMonApp process started and identified this row as the one representing its own installation. |
