    Enhancement ALTER of STOGROUP to be NO-DISRUPTIVE change.

    As we all know to perform an ALTER DB.TS/IX USING STOGROUP XXXXX a STOP/ALTER/START process is required which is a DISRUPTIVE change. So, looking for an enhancement on that ALTER process maybe it could be "improved" by putting the involved Db2 obj...

    Replacing data in Archive Enabled Tables using LOAD

    In most tables data can be replaced using LOAD RESUME NO REPLACE. In Archive Enabled Tables it cannot. We want to use LOAD REPLACE to replace the existing data instead of having to delete the current data and then load with RESUME YES. The old dat...

    Provide a threshold for the number of incidents caused by a single holder for message DSNT376I.

    Availability and stable systems are very important to us (as they are for most users of DB2 for Z). Recently, I implemented a process that automatically terminated any process that shows up as the holder for a specific number (threshold) of DSNT37...

    Identify when all members of a Data Sharing Group are up and operational

    After a crash or hard down, Db2 will perform its recovery processing including GRECP and LPL processing. There are external systems (e.g. CICS, MQ, etc.) that are dependent on all members in the data-sharing group to be fully up and operational an...

    Link FLA messages to auto recovery task id

    We did a large GRECP recovery test with around 68.000 GBP dependend objects. After restart and the automatic GRECP recovery we see a lot of DSNI025I, DSNI026I, DSNI027I, DSNI028I and DSNI029I messages as expected, but they have no correlation to t...

    Add SYSDISC DSNTIAUL format to REORG utility

    Sometimes there's a need to repopulate DB2 tables concatenating outputs from REORG SYSDISC and DSNTIAUL in a single LOAD SYSREC file. So the idea is to have a parameter like REORG ... SYSDISC FORMAT INTERNAL|DSNTIAUL. Basically the difference betw...

    Need a Db2 option to return control (and not wait) if the maximum number of threads is already reached

    We've seen cases in z/OS DFSMS OAM where the application invoking OAM can use up the available Db2 connections/threads so when OAM goes to process their request, there are no longer any threads available resulting in a deadly embrace. Typically th...
