    IFCID 402 support for more than 50 unique user profiles like IFCID 365, 411 and 412

    The critical issue is that IFCID 402 uniquely lacks the continuation flag essential for identifying continuation records within a single interval, a feature consistently present in other DDF-related IFCIDs (365, 411, 412). This omission significan...

    Improve persistent thread concurrency

    With the implementation of transactions with persistent threads (like pseudo wait-for-input on IMS) we have been facing some concurrency issues in our site, specially with HPU and batch programs that perform lock escalation. This happens because t...

    Allow reset of all High Water Mark Statistics values

    enhance smf records for reporting secure connections

    When just beginning to implement secure db2 ports (sometimes called encryption in-flight), it is helpful to report on the performance of queries that are secure vs queries that are non-secure. This can help us to fully tune our applications for th...

    Improve ALTER TABLE ROTATE PARTITION

    Currently ALTER TABLE ROTATE PARTITION only allows the ENDING value to be a constant, minvalue, or maxvalue. I would suggest adding the ability to generate DATES or TIMESTAMPS so that additional programming is not necessary to generate the ALTER s...

    RID problem instrumentation improvement

    The IFI 2 & 3 fields QISTRLLM and QISTRPLM and the RID fields in the 316 and 401 are all basically “useless” these days to actually detect a RID related limit problem. I know that the QXRFMIAP is available in the IFI 2 & 3 but it is needed...
