    IFCID 172/196 (Deadlock/Timeout) – Add STCK for Held Locks

    At IFCID 172/196 (Deadlock/Timestamp) please add a STCK for the held lock (blocker) when the lock was granted. In case of a lockout with this STCK the sequence of the locks, and so the sequence of the blocker-SQLs, can be reconstructed ‘post mor...

    RECOVER utility option to include inflights

    There should be an option in RECOVER utility which allows to include during recovery all the inflight threads which started before the point of time to which we are recovering the object. Currently all inflights are being rolled back

    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 TCPIP DROP to CANCEL THREAD FORCE to clear orphan threads from DB2 incase of TCPIP abend

    over 1 year ago in Db2 for z/OS 1 Not under consideration

    For Db2 z/OS, we need to have a way to find only the committed data present in tables for which we have set AFTER triggers in Db2 and also to have a unit of work ID to identify the commit scope for multiple changes that an occur as part of a single commit. This will enable us to have an efficient mechanism for integration with other applications and software such as IBM zDIH.

    It will enable to modernise our heritage applications and enable to expose our data with modern interface quickly.
