Db2 for z/OS

    Provide a default PLAN_TABLE and DSN_STATEMENT_CACHE_TABLE

    Add new Status for stopping Databases that will be Dropped or decomissioned

    When you work for several accounts it's not easy to know whether a DB or TS has been stopped on purpouse or just due to some previous error. I think that some new status would be great, some Advisory STOP, something that doesn't allow people to us...

    Partial PBG REORG for added Partitions due to previous PART LEVEL REORGs

    When I run a PART LEVEL REORG of a PBG tablespace and the current data doesn't fit into its original partition DB2 adds a new partition at the end and uses it for the "overflow" data. Which is fine, btw.... If i do this for multiple partitions, se...

    Db2 image copies to S3 storage
