    There should be a Db2 utility to delete rows from SYSIBM.SYSOBJEVENTS and SYSIBM.SYSUTILITIES

    Currently there is no to delete rows from SYSIBM.SYSOBJEVENTS and SYSIBM.SYSUTILITIES and these tables will keep growing. All sites with these tables enabled require this. The utility could be an extension of the functionality of "MODIFY RECOVERY"...
    about 1 year ago in Db2 Utilities Suite for z/OS 1 Not under consideration

    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...

    include num of Rows discarded in a REORG DISCARD utility execution

    It can/will be VERY useful to Db2 zOS users if the Object level utilities history will record the number of rows discarded in a REORG DISCARD utility execution. As documented I understand that the object level information will be available in v13 ...

    Redirected Recovery - make REPAIR CATALOG a part of the Redirected Recovery processing

    the REPAIR CATALOG on target tablespaces is a must complete step before the data is accessed or indexes rebuilt on the data. If we always need to do this then can this step be included, maybe as a REPAIR CATALOG phase, to the redirected recovery p...

    Allow use of REORG DISCARD for DSNDB06.SYSTSUTL

    The SYSIBM.SYSUTILITIES is going to require pruning -- and presumably SYSIBM.SYSOBJEVENTS will as well. With row-level locking, doing a mass delete to purge unneeded history objects could become an issue with too many held locks and would likely r...

    After PIT Recovery the RTS values are restored

    Today some RTS statistics is lost after PIT Recovery. These statistics is necessary for other utilites like REORG, REBUILD or CHECK to calculate e.g. the correct SORTWKxx data set sizes. As we have very large objects, this behaviour lead to the co...

    SYSIBM.SYSUTILITIES should have a column containing the full text of the Db2 utility

    SYSIBM.SYSUTILITIES should have a column containing the full text of the Db2 utility that was executed. This allows the DBAs or sysprogs to see exactly what was executed for problem and other analysis. For example if someone has run a utility that...

    Db2 Warehouse in CP4D - NFS v4 support

    We are using NFS for Db2 warehouse backups of a Database of 6TB. But doing it with mount nfs v3, no lock option, takes about 3x time that doing it with nfs v4. Doing the backups with nfs v4 works fine in our environment, but in documentation, it s...

    Allow for Multiple Columns on LOAD INTO TABLE WHEN Criteria

    We recently converted from BMC to IBM Db2 utilities. It would be very useful if multiple column names could be specified on the WHEN criteria for the Db2 LOAD utility. This would also make the functionality similar to the WHEN criteria of REORG WI...

    Allow creation of table with column definition WITH DEFAULT CURRENT DATE - x DAYS

    We have a requirement to create some new tables, where we load a CSV file in every day. The CSV file contains information from the IMS Performance Analyzer Tool, and is always 2 days behind the current date. It would be nice to have the option to ...
