Replication: Q-Replication & Availability

ASNCLP should support LARGE tablespaces and AUTOMATIC storage options for Db2

With Db2 11.5 SQL Replication, USING PROMOTE REGISTRATION in ASNCLP to generate a script to run later, the tablespace definitions are created incorrectly for existing tablespaces defined as LARGE and using AUTOMATIC storage. LARGE tablespaces a...

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.

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 ...

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

Gracefully handle table failures & send email alert

When a table fails due to structure or availability changes, the replication set should instead set the failed table to inactive instead of crashing capture. It should also send an email notification to alert of the issue.

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 ...

Removed forced Requirement to force Replication Center to only run wit IBM JDK/JRE

Citigroup has a rule that only JDK/JRE that are supported by Citi are allowed to be used on all products that are packaged for general users. Currently the internal packaging team at Citi striped the IBM JDK/JRE from a Data Server Client 11.1.2. A...

Ignore log records for a dedicated subscription in IGNORETRANS

In very rare cases Db2 cannot provide log records for Q Capture, e.g. in case of a version mismatch, a compression dictionary error, etc. Removing the subscription and reloading the target is a practical approach. But in some situations (e.g., non...
