See also stanza.<br />(2) A file that defines a collection of artefacts and the actions to take with those artefacts on the target system to which it is distributed.
Industry:Software
(1) A state that consists of either concurrent substates or sequential substates. See also disjoint substate.<br />(2) In a business state machine, an aggregate of one or more states that is used to decompose a complex state machine diagram into a simple hierarchy of state machines.
Industry:Software
(1) Data in the form of letters and special characters, such as punctuation marks.<br />(2) Data that has an associated coding representation that defines how to interpret each specific pattern of bits that are grouped into one or more bytes.

(1) In Query, a report that contains only summary information, such as the total, average, minimum, maximum, or count by a query. See also detail report.<br />(2) A report that shows the values of many metrics for many components from only one star schema. Typically, a summary report examines large numbers of metrics, often showing subtotals for a particular grouping and grand totals for the entire report. Data in a summary report is typically displayed as a text table, rather than in a graphical format. See also extreme case report, health cheque report.<br />(3) A statistics report produced by the CICS statistics utility programme (STUP). It summarises the interval, unsolicited, requested reset, and end-of-day statistics on an applid by applid basis. See also statistics utility program.

(1) A table that is automatically created in the DB2 database catalogue when a database is created. catalogue tables contain information about a database and its objects. See also catalogue view.<br />(2) Any table in the DB2 catalog.

(1) In a multidimensional clustering table, a unique combination of dimension values. Physically, a cell is made up of blocks of pages whose records all share the same values for each dimension column.<br />(2) A group of managed processes that are federated to the same deployment manager and can include high-availability core groups.<br />(3) In asynchronous transfer mode (ATM), a medium access control (MAC) protocol data unit (PDU) of fixed size.<br />(4) A logical grouping of users, computers, data, and other resources that share either a common purpose or a common level of trust.<br />(5) A single cartridge location within an Automated Tape Library Dataserver (ATLDS). See also rack number, slot.<br />(6) One or more processes that each host runtime components. Each has one or more named core groups.

(1) In software distribution, the phase in which previously prepared actions are committed, causing all of the updates to take effect. See also transactional mode.<br />(2) The second phase in a XA process. If all participants acknowledge that they are prepared to commit, the transaction manager issues the commit request. If any participant is not prepared to commit, the transaction manager issues a back-out request to all participants.
Industry:Software
(1) A state that indicates that the current logical unit of work (LUW) has not yet begun to prepare to commit. A failure during RST state results in a rollback of any pending changes.<br />(2) To cause a counter to take the state corresponding to a specified initial number.
Industry:Software
(1) Data obtained by a collector that represents the system status at a given point in time. Collections are timestamped and stored in a management collection object. See also schema.<br />(2) In a Tivoli environment, a container that provides a single view of related resources.<br />(3) The process of monitoring and storing application performance data, aggregating it to a time interval, and saving it into data files on the endpoint.<br />(4) A group of objects with a similar set of management rules.<br />(5) An abstract class without any ordering, element properties, or key properties.<br />(6) A group of objects that typically have similar performance, availability, backup, retention, and class transition characteristics. A collection is used to catalogue a large number of objects which, if catalogued separately, could require an extremely large catalog.<br />(7) A set of data sources and options for crawling, parsing, indexing, and searching those data sources.<br />(8) A group of packages that have the same qualifier.
Industry:Software
(1) In RACF, a collection of security information that represents data to be accessed, a user, or a job.
