    Convert lsfpollerd, licpollerd, and advocate to system managed service with Restart set to always

    SysV init.d scripts are rather old, and do not support the monitoring and restart capabilities in systemd. So, convert these init.d scripts to systemd support and add the Restart option so that admins are comfortable knowing that the operating sys...

    Identify major LOG captures.

    We frequently experience delays in QREP Capture readings on our peak processing days without any apparent monster transactions. Transactions and rows continue to be processed, but at a slower rate than the actual log reads. In these cases, we have...

    Let Capture build the transaction message with non-LOB columns first and LOB columns last instead of in strict column sequence order.

    Please consider changing Capture to build transaction messages with all non-LOB data first, then add on the LOB data after all other non-LOB data no matter what the sequence numbers. This would prevent the risk of splitting a message on non-LOB da...

    Automatic data validation by using asnclp create qsub with different data type column mapping

    Related to the case TS020335936 Scenario: Consider the following qsub creation: mapping VARCHAR(26) to TIMESTAMP(6) TRGCOLS EXCLUDE (RECORD_TIME, MES_RECORD_TIME, SITE_CD, D_KEY, CHANGE_TYPE, CHANGE_TIME) EXPRESSION ( "'MES2'" TARGET SITE_CD, "cur...

    Make it possible to have a backup directory other than /tmp

    In some cases, /tmp is not large enough to hold RTM backups. We need an alternate path, in NFS even to store as the temporary backup location for the RTM database backup.

    Performance improvement for expression

    Add one column with STATIC expression on target, but got long processing time (delay) on apply side. Would like to know the reason why. New Expression:Expression: ‘MES1’ -> site_cd Existing expression looks like as:CASE WHEN :SYS_CD is NULL the...

    Improvement of QREP to allow replication of data generated in the Db2 LOG by the LOAD utility with SHRLEVEL NONE LOG YES.

    Need: Meet the growing demand for data replication from Banco do Brasil -Scenario:- Banco do Brasil is a large user of data replication using Qrep (IIDR) + Db2 v13 for z/OS, there are thousands of tables replicated from production environments for...

    Comprehensive Rollback Solution for IBM FTM Version Upgrades

    Currently, when post-upgrade issues such as performance degradation emerge after several days in production, only application components can be reverted easily—leaving clients to navigate database backup and restoration processes manually. Any bac...
    7 months ago in Financial Transaction Manager  / FTM Base 2 Under review

    Allow for blocklist for lsfproxyd to persist through reboots.

    When lsfproxyd restarts, the block list is removed. If the block list was not dumped before or accidentally restarted the lsfproxyd daemon, blocked trouble users can cause problems in the cluster again.

    Data captured in long transactions with guaranteed delivery to destination

    It is usefull because sometimes a very long transaction pass through the Capture process but can´t be delivered causing memory lack at destination. The benefit would be not losing the data transferred to the destination. One suggestion would be to...
