Name of the database where you are viewing alternate buffer pool assignments.
tenant tenant-name
Specifies that the only the area and object assignments owned by tenant-name are to be viewed. If tenant-name is not valid, VIEWB2 exits with an error. Specifying tenant is only allowed on databases enabled for multi-tenancy.
group group-name
Specifies that the only the area and object assignments owned by group-name are to be viewed. If group-name is not valid, VIEWB2 exits with an error. Specifying group is only allowed on databases enabled for multi-tenancy.
shared
Specifies that the only the area and object assignments of shared tables and objects are to be viewed. Specifying shared is only allowed on databases enabled for multi-tenancy.
VIEWB2 displays the alternate buffer pool assignments for objects of all schemas as well as area level assignments. Since objects in a Type II area can be assigned to an alternate buffer pool independently of their area assignment, each object in a Type II area is displayed regardless of the area status. Although objects in a Type I area cannot be explicitly assigned to the alternate buffer pool, they are individually listed to clearly identify the objects associated with a storage area when a storage area is assigned to the alternate buffer pool.

Notes
VIEWB2 maybe run online or offline.
For the Partition/Tenant/Group column:
Entries preceded by P: indicate a table partitioned object.
Entries preceded by T: indicate an object associated with a multi-tenant tenant.
Entries preceded by G: indicate an object associated with a multi-tenant group.
Index Objects with the form P:Global:0 are global indexes.
Index or Table entries with the form P:Transitional:0 indicate the composite initial partition.
Alternate buffer pool assignments for objects visible through ABL (in the PUB schema) can be updated and viewed through the Data Dictionary.
For more information on assigning objects to the alternate buffer pool, see PROUTILENABLEB2 qualifier or the Data Dictionary.
For more information on removing objects from the alternate buffer pool, see PROUTILDISABLEB2 qualifier or the Data Dictionary.
