    Q-Replication Apply program shall be able to recognize if a column-organized table contains already a dictionary

    Hello, the current implementation of the Q-Replication apply program for an automatic LOAD operation on column-organized target tables does not recognize if a dictionary already exist. A column compression dictionary is used to compress data in...

    Improving CHECK utility performance: elapsed time and CPU

    On our site, we have a PBG tablespace that, after loading, has the last partition in CHECK PENDING, the other partitions in RW. The IBM CHECK utility has taken a long time to complete the verification. We tried using the SCOPE PENDING parameter, b...

    Request for re-try / reconnect mechanism

    We'd like to request Replication to have re-try / reconnect mechanism even without MQ multiple instances. Because currently it doesn’t support MQ multiple instances, we can use SLB, but if it has no re-connect, we can do nothing.

    Add ability to have multiple Q-replication targets on Db2wh

    Currently on Db2wh, there is no ability to add multiple targets for Q-Replication. Please consider adding that idea as we have business case to implement such solution

    Add "EXCEPTION" parameter to CHECK INDEX to discontinue processing after N disrepancies

    Sometimes when you run CHECK INDEX you encounter a huge number of discrepancies so much so that the utility keeps running and running and producing an excessive amount of output -messages regarding the details of the discrepancies. In some cases y...

    Increase commits in STOSPACE

    We opened a case: Contentions on SYSINDEXES during STOSPACE. The stospace on a large stogroup causes many timeouts and deadlocks on the SYSINDEXES to a JDBC application which is the most used in our center. The answer in the case is the following:...

    Reorg Index functionality should allow parallel partition processing of a multi-part selection as per Reorg Tablespace.

    It is best practice to minimise the exposure of mission critical application workload to the impact of reorg drain activity. It is best practice to minimise the cpu, i/o and elapse time of database maintenance activity which is often restricted to...

    Allow LISTDEF to be used by REPAIR where appropriate at partition level that includes a range (1:50)

    Allow LISTDEF with REPAIR, such as turning off AREO* (NOAREORPENDSTAR) at partition level. This would include a from partlevel to to partlevel. This would reduce the number of REPAIRs that need to be generated.

    LOAD should not be restarted when Apply fails during SET INTEGRITY

    When setting up Replication for a DB2 Table for the first time Apply will use a LOAD FROM Cursor to do an initial copy of the tables data. If there are constraints or generated columns defined for that table Apply will issue a SET INTEGRITY comman...

    Avoid ending with an abend for utilities with AUX YES when TEMPLATE goes to TAPE with STACK YES.

    This would help to reduce the number of dump and "wrong" or "bad" opinion about Db2 z/OS to our customers. It would also help us to reduce the number of incidents.
