Hi there,
for my collegues that are not so familiar with the DB2 (v11 z/OS) system catalog and its tables I'm searching for an ERM diagram that shows all the catalog tables and their dependencies / references.
Has anybody got an idea where I can find something like that - or how I can generate one / somebody can generate one for me?
A Visio- or similar file would be very nice but a PDF or SVG or ordinary picture would be helpful as well.
I tried to generate one using DB-Visualizer (v9, Build #1902) like I do with fewer application tables. But - i suppose due to the large number of tables (117) - the generator doesn't come to an end :-(
I've got a list of the tables and all their columns as a PDF like
![]()
But this is only tabular and without references / dependencies, foreign key relations.
Attached you find a anonymized sample how I'd like the result to be. Hope you understand what I'm looking for.
It's not necessary to have a diagram of the v11 catalog tables. Mostly a diagram of v10 or v9 would be sufficient.
Thank you very, very much
Auryn
