Be able to add options in the cross-LOAD command executed by QREP, during a refresh of target tables

Hello there, I have opened one IBM case for this topic. What is the point: We have some troubles with QREP replication.When QREP is trying to do a LOAD REPLACE (via stored procedure DSNUTILU), in the target table, if someone is using the targe tab...

Add support for .NET 6 and Linux OS in CPLEX APIs

We developed a product based on .NET 6 that relies on CPLEX core functionalities and we need to make it run both on Windows an Linux operating systems. The .NET 6 libraries are platform independent but the CPLEX Optimization Studio only provides a...

In SQL replication, do not re-execute signals that have already been executed.

In SQL replication, as in Q Capture, add a reprocess_signals to the parameters of the capture and set the default to N. Do not re-execute a signal that has already been executed if the minimum LSN is less than the last signal LSN at the start of t...

Conflict refiner for heirarchical goals

Idea: Create a multi-level / hierarchical conflict refiner Given a formulated problem that has multiple goals with different priorities, hierarchical goals, if the solution from the first level makes the second level infeasible it is not easy to r...

Ability to create ASNMON Oracle Control Tables via GUI without Federated Server

We have QREP Data Replication established between DB2 Z/OS and Oracle on Linux. We are using Oracle Native Apply on the target DBMS. As per discussions and conclusions in the referenced PMR, 85301,442,000, we have 2 issues:1) We can not directly c...

Implement nonconvex quadratic constraints in CPLEX

CPLEX already supports nonconvex quadratic objectives, but not yet constraints, even though they bring a lot of flexibility in modelling.

Proposal for an Official CPLEX R Package for Seamless RStudio Integration

I’d like to suggest that IBM develop and maintain an official R package for the CPLEX solver. Today, R users must rely on a handful of hard-to-install third-party libraries, whereas competitors like Gurobi ship a polished “gurobi” package that ins...

Provide Replication Center and Replication Dashboard functionality within DSM

We would like to see the Replication Center tool functionality for IIDR Queue Replication added under the Data Server Manager(DSM) Umbrella. Today we are using Replication Center to administer and monitor our IIDR Queue Replication environment. Th...

zIIP Eligible Q-APPLY

Currently the SQL Queries in QREP Apply are CPU-intensive. The CPU cost of those queries cost more than our top 5 application programs combined. We recommend to make Q APPLY Queries zIIP eligible to reduce the CPU cost for QREP APPLY.

To resolve the backup failure issue caused by identical hostnames across IIAS appliances running in Docker containers.

Assigning unique hostnames to each IIAS appliance (or container) is essential because backup tools like EMC NetWorker rely on hostnames to identify and manage client systems. When multiple appliances use the same hostname, EMC NetWorker cannot dif...
