Latency Threshold Setting by Duration in ASNMON

Transaction volume is different between business time and non-business time. Different threshold should be set for QCAPTURE_LATENCY, QAPPLY_EELATENCY, QAPPLY_LATENCY, e.g. 08:00 - 21:59, 22:00-07:59, etc.

ASNCLP Error Message Enhancement

For error code ASN1952E, the reason maybe ASNCLP script grammar error, QMGR setting is wrong of missed in PARM table of CAPTURE or APPLY, password of z/OS user is wrong, etc. That makes operation maintenance very hard for trouble shooting. The det...

DR4A V1.2 Sequence not replicated

After insert on capture side on table with autonumber column, data is inserted, but sequence is not replicated on apply side. You can follow the following steps to recreate the scenario. CREATE LARGE TABLESPACE "TSD_DBA_TEST" IN DATABASE PARTIT...

ASNCLP to support a VALIDATE(NO) option

When creating new replication configurations ASNCLP checks the existence of MQ Queues, qmaps, tables, etc. When deploying to production, we need to have pre-prepared and tested the implementation scripts. However, because ASNCLP validates that the...

Q Apply issue a warning after exception due to OKSQLSTATES

Using OKSQLSTATES certain error conditions can be specified which will let Q Apply document a failing operation in IBMQREP_EXCEPTIONS.Today, Q Apply does not write out a warning into the log file if an exception based on OKSQLSTATES happened.Monit...

Improving QREP online operation

ABC(Agriculture Bank of China) have implemented A-A based on QREP. Due to its huge number of data volume, the maintenance related to A-A is extreme complex. The more easy operation of QREP the more maintenance convenience.1. In some case, certain ...

IBM Data for Availability V1.2 RFE for tablespaces objects replication

IBM Data for Availability V1.2 (IBM Db2 Replication for Continuous Avalability) lacks replication of CREATE, ALTER, DROP and other statements like authorise and revoke for tablespace objects. When using IIAS console to define table replication whi...

Gracefully handle table failures & send email alert

When a table fails due to structure or availability changes, the replication set should instead set the failed table to inactive instead of crashing capture. It should also send an email notification to alert of the issue.
