    Eliminate the need to bind a subprogram locally called by a stored procedure running remotely

    Today there are different code pathes if a package is called remotely from a local program OR a local stored procedure. If the package is called by a stored procedure we get SQLCODE805 if no local package exists. Therefore we have the need to bind...

    Add a message to report orphan threads in DB2

    Due to TCPIP abend, there are several orphan threads in DB2 causing contention issues on resources. There is no message to report these orphan threads. Having a report helps us to avoid contention issues sooner by cancelling the underlying orphan ...

    Enhancement request to turn off DB2 security

    Could we get a ZPARM that allows the deactivation of DB2 security in favor of a security product (ie. RACF). It would be nice if RACF was the ONLY authoritative source for security requests. Currently if a result isn't returned by RACF, DB2 checks...
