Just push the Easy button? Unfortunately it's not located in easily  
accessible location.
 
1)Hardware config WRT CPUs, CoD, Storage, ZIIPs, DASD, SSD
 
2)Software config WRT to Buffer use. Limiting non-production resources with 
 throttles. 
 
3)Craig Mullin's DB/2 book is a good starting place. He states 70% of DB/2  
performance were related to bad SQL code.
 
4)Monitor tools. The old Platinum tools were bought by CA. Analyzer,  
Detector, SQL pay for themselves
after a few bumps. Workload observations with RMF can hint at when your  
peaks will occur. End of month,
sale season, market swings whatever your business is.
 
5)WLM can help smooth out the rough spots. Cheryl Watson's Goal Tender can  
point you to problems with
 misshapen goals and objectives.
 
6) Get help where applicable. Just a few pointers and observations can give 
 leverage or reinforcement as to where you're trying to go and what you're 
trying  to achieve.
 
7)Many of this and related topics are covered in Redbooks and presented at  
SHARE by other installations that have gone thru this or similar  
conundrums.
 
8)Keep posting, we all learn as we go.

performance  issues. That was traced down to bad programming practises which
