We have an application with a high criticality and high workload running Q Replication in a bidirectional mode.This application uses CICS transactions, TSO Batch, Java Batch, local zWAS and distributed transactions as well.And because batch jobs c...

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...

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...

Add an ability to start a q subscription via MODIFY on the Capture started task

Currently Q Capture subscriptions can be interacted with either via MODIFY command invoked on a Q Capture started task, or SQL insert statements executed on table IBMQREP_SIGNAL. For many customers, executing a MODIFY command to perform an action ...

ALTER table DATA CAPTURE NONE not detected by IIDR QREP or CDC

If 'ALTER table DATA CAPTURE NONE' is executed against a table that is actively replicating, any changes made to the source data will not be captured or replicated until ‘ALTER table DATA CAPTURE CHANGES' is executed. This would cause the target...

Feed Q Replication with your own LOAD keywords for automatic load

Recently we had opened a case TS013850174, which could not be addressed correctly b/c it requires an enhancement. Problem was as follows. Due to an error in our change management process, target table had a unique index, which was not present at t...

Display of replication throughput per subscription

Today Q Apply stores detailed performance statistics on queue level. This idea raises the request to store certain Q Apply throuput statistics (like rows_processed) on subscription level. Background: Today it is very difficult / sometime impossibl...

Request for supporting MQ automatic client reconnect

As we know, IBM MQ supports multi-instance configuration and automatic client reconnect since version 7.0.1. Recently we found the latest Q-Relication (11.4.0) even not support such a basic function( automatic client reconnect with multi-instance ...

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...

Q-Capture (on LUW) supports to use a dedicated MQ publish thread to perform all IBM MQ operations...

Currently, there is "parallel_mqthread" && "mqthread_bufsz" parameters, but it only used on z/OS. Cx hopes these features can support on LUW as well, which can specify whether the Q Capture program should use a separate thread to publish m...
