If the instance is not already started when db2evmon is issued with the -db and -evm options, the command will start the instance.
If the instance is not already started when db2evmon is issued with the -path option, the command will not start the instance. The instance needs to be started explicitly.
If the data is being written to files, the tool formats the files for display using standard output. In this case, the monitor is turned on first, and any event data in the files is displayed by the tool. To view any data written to files after the tool has been run, reissue db2evmon.
If the data is being written to a pipe, the tool formats the output for display using standard output as events occur. In this case, the tool is started before the monitor is turned on.
