We have a very large table of data which we would like to take off of DB2. We have created an AOT and loaded it from DB2, but we have not been able to create a backup of the AOT. Without a backup we can not remove the table from DB2. This was repo...

We're using IDAA loader V 2.1 to run backups for very huge AOTs. When IDAA loader takes a backup from an IDAA AOT it uses SQL multirow fetch to transfer the data from IDAA into a z/OS sequential file. This may work fine for small AOTs. But in our ...

Issue different return code when no rows loaded

We have an IDAA loader job that disables the table prior to the load to IDAA. Upon successful load of # rows, Loader will end with RC = 0 and enable the table for acceleration again. If the same process is run multiple times and results in "no row...

HLOMAINT utility enhancement request

Today, HLOMAINT utility is not designed to find out what utilities are stuck or dead. To clean up those loader utilities, we run a SELECT * against HLOTB.HLOUSTAT table, review each utility, and run the HLOMAINT job to terminate the utilities one ...
