Allow resource limit ELIGIBLE_PEND_JOBS usage for APPS

I would like to have a limit ELIGIBLE_PEND_JOBS for the consumer APPS. The reason is an application which needs licenses from a license server. In case of many simultanously dispatched jobs the license server overloads. Up to now the resource limi...

For tables w/ columns that are generated by default, update the internal sequence with the next value for the column

AUDIT to track view access

We would like to get a mechanism to AUDIT the access of views. We already use EXECUTE category but at table level. We do not use EXECUTE category at database level because it could impact the database performance. We tested all AUDIT categories ti...

Effective r15s/r1m/r15m values for job reservations

When using run queue length indices in rusage strings, there should be an option to have the value divided by ncpus. Since in the "total load used for scheduling" the r15s/r1m/r15m are taken from lsload -E and divided by the specific ncpus for tha...
