DB2 Catalog

The DB2 catalog and directory act as central repositories for all information about the support and operations of DB2 objects, authorizations, and communications.
The catalog comprises several DB2 tables and can be accessed via SQL. The catalog contains details about DB2 objects obtained from the DDL (Data Definition Language) when an object is created or altered or from DCL (Data Control Language) when an authorization is granted on an object or a group of objects.
The DB2 catalog also contains information about communications with other DB2 and non-DB2 databases through the use of the communications database (CDB), which contains information about VTAM and TCP/IP addresses.
Table Name (SYSIBM.table)
Information Contents
IPLIST
Allows multiple IP addresses to be specified for a given LOCATION. Insert rows into this table when you want to define a remote DB2 data sharing group. Rows can be inserted, updated, and deleted.
IPNAMES
Defines the remote DRDA servers DB2 can access using TCP/IP. Rows in this table can be inserted, updated, and deleted.
LOCATIONS
Contains a row for every accessible remote server. The row associates a
LOCATION name with the TCP/IP or SNA network attributes for the remote server. Requesters are not defined in this table. Rows in this table can be inserted, updated, and deleted.
LULIST
Allows multiple LU (Logical Unit) names to be specified for a given LOCATION. Insert rows into this table when you want to define a remote DB2 data sharing group. The same value for the LUNAME column cannot appear in both the SYSIBM.LUNAMES table and the SYSIBM.LULIST table. Rows in this table can be inserted, updated, and deleted.
LUMODES
Each row of the table provides VTAM with conversation limits for a specific combination of LUNAME and MODENAME. The table is accessed only during the initial conversation-limit negotiation between DB2 and a remote LU. This negotiation is called change-number-of-sessions (CNOS) processing. Rows in this table can be inserted, updated, and deleted.
LUNAMES
The table must contain a row for each remote SNA client or server that communicates with DB2. Rows can be inserted, updated, or deleted.
MODESELECT
Associates a mode name with any conversation created to support an outgoing SQL request. Each row represents one or more combinations of LUNAME, authorization ID, and application plan name. Rows in this table can be inserted, updated, and deleted.
SYSAUXRELS
Contains one row for each auxiliary table created for a LOB column. A base table space that is partitioned must have one auxiliary table for each partition of each LOB column.
SYSCHECKDEP
Contains one row for each reference to a column in a table check constraint.
SYSCHECKS
Contains one row for each table-check constraint.
SYSCHECKS2
Contains one row for each table-check constraint created in or after version 7.
SYSCOLAUTH

SYSCOLDISTSTATS
Contains zero or more rows per partition for the first key column of a partitioning index or DPSI (Data Partitioned Secondary Index). Rows are inserted when RUNSTATS scans index partitions of the partitioning index. No row is inserted if the index is nonpartitioning. Rows in this table can be inserted, updated, and deleted.
SYSCOLSTATS
Contains partition statistics for selected columns. For each column, a row exists for each partition in the table. Rows are inserted when RUNSTATS collects either indexed column statistics or nonindexed column statistics for a partitioned table space. No row is inserted if the table space is nonpartitioned. Rows in this table can be inserted, updated, and deleted.
SYSCOLUMNS
Contains one row for every column of each table and view.
