    Currently when you exceed the threshold there is an alert raised. Once the usage drops the alert does not drop. The only way to 'close' the alert is to stop/start the database ('Deactivate') - ie an exclusive outage. In a production database this ...

    TIMESTAMPFORMAT option in the CREATE SERVER clause

    When performing federated queries from Db2 to Presto, it seems that the option TIMESTAMPFORMAT ( https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2/11.5?topic=options-jdbc ) for setting the timestamp format of the data source does currently have no impact when speci...
