    Composite License Packaging for Simplified Allocation

    Introduce a capability in IBM LSF License Scheduler to define a single package name that represents multiple license features. When this package is allocated, all underlying licenses are automatically allocated together. This would be similar to h...
    10 days ago in Spectrum LSF / License Management 0 Under review

    HPU writes tables locally. If HPU could write direct to S3 locations, it would eliminate the need to move files after creation.

    If HPU had a feature to write data directly to S3 buckets, it would make the process for moving data to cloud faster & easier. While initial unloads may be constrained by available bandwidth, the process of writing to S3 immediately starts the...

    We are in the process of converting CA DB2 Fast Unload jobs to IBM HPU and got the below issue for atleast 16 Batch jobs and impacting the migration to IBM DB2 tools. Faced the delimiter issue with IBM HPU as below :- CA Fast Unload output - '000R...

    License Scheduler - Minimum Preemption Time

    It's been observed when the license scheduler preempts a job to free up license resources, the job can occasionally be resumed within 1-2 seconds if license features are freed up during that time. This leads to behavior where processes do not prop...

    Lifecycle management of logs in LSF license scheduler

    LSF License Scheduler generates blcollect.log and bid.log, and these logs increase over time. Since the license scheduler does not provide a log management feature, when the logs become too large, the administrator must move the files. Of course, ...

    Add INCLUDE file capabilities into LSF License Scheduler configuration

    The ability to specify the License Scheduler configuration in multiple include files where each include file contains the separate configuration of each independent software vendor. For example, #INCLUDE /path/cadence.lsf.license_scheduler #INCLUD...

    Unload LOCK YES Drain Writers instead of executing LOCK TABLE

    When executing HPU in Native MODE with parameters ULLOCK = YES, ULLOCKTE = LOCK and ULLOCKMO = NATIVE_ONLY HPU executes a EXEC SQL LOCK TABLE. Sometimes table being locked is in a TS whose a IX TS lock was left in DB2 due to this table be used in ...

    Connect license checkouts to jobs

    Uniquely connect the license checkouts to jobs. The idea is to put a unique value into LM_PROJECT environmental variable and then get the LM_PROJECT value via lmstat using the -lm option to display the project value. This will allow LSF, LS and RT...

    Read and Write partitions in parallel with only one OUTDDN dataset

    Recently, during some tests, we observed that using a single dataset for each part in the OUTDDN with &PART drastically improves the elapsed time of the HPU job (with benefits for data availability, reduced contention probability, etc.). Howev...
