    Issue an appropriate message instead of a dump in case of 00E20015 occurrence

    A clear DSN... message indicating the problem ASCB is more helpful than a dump. The asid (in R2) could be already another ASCB, so this is ambiguous. The dump could be supressed in my opinion. We have such a lot of cases in which we are forced to ...

    Increase DSSIZE of SYSTSPKS in DSNDB06 (SYSIBM.SYSPACKSTMT) from 64 GB to 256 GB

    We just finished a clean-up of old, unused packages and did a reorg of SYSTSPKS in DSNDB06 (= Table SYSIBM.SYSPACKSTMT. According to RTS we still see a usage size of 28 GB (= 44.27 % of 64 GB size limit) for this tablespace in large development an...

    Command confirmation in joblog of DB2MSTR.

    DB2 has many commands which display or alter the status of something. There are a lot of distinct environments from which the commands can be executed (z/OS console, DSN session, TSO DSN command processor, IMS or CICS terminal, special STPs, IFI-i...

    If Db2 boosts a thread, it should have preference over other boost activities (like zIIP boost)

    We had the situation that some threads (DDF threads) hold a latch and this latch is required also for Db2 system tasks. The Db2 boost does not help in this situation because we use zIIP boost during IPL. So from a WLM perspective higher prioritize...

    Reference to the BSDS for example the full image copies of the CATALOG and DIRECTORY DB2 tablespaces which are not in SYSCOPY

    There are several (4 in DB2 v12) catalog and directory tablespaces for which the full image copies are not referenced in the SYSCOPY.Thus, during a DB2 cat/dir recovery (recovery exercise or other...) these FICs are searched directly in the DB2 lo...

    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...

    A View with Select * should be regenertated without Drop/Create View

    We have a lot of views defined with Select *. Since DB2 V8 we have the option to add columns to the base table, but the view does not include the new column, which is ok and accepted. But to get the new column we have to drop and recreate the View...

    Allow RUNSTATS SHRLEVEL CHANGE to operate as the name says

    This RFE is a result of the PMRs (31614,112,848) we have opened where the root cause was identified as invalid values in RTS tables. Current design allows to re-initialize certain fields in RTS (eg. TOTALROWS) only by executing RUNSTATS SHRLEVEL R...
