    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...

    New Db2 REST Service Discovery Authority

    Since a security loophole was closed it is now only possible to discover REST services via the Db2 supplied Db2ServiceManager API that the user has authority to execute. We feel this goes against the open API economy that we are currently in, wher...

    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...

    Enhance Auditpolicy OBJMAINT to audit activities for objects created after trace has been started

    Status change or pending DDL when adding a KEY LABEL to an existing table

    When an existing table is altered to add a KEY LABEL to enable encryption on the table, the encryption only takes effect post a Reorg (effectively post a redefinition of the underlying VSAM datasets). So the alter is effectively incomplete until s...

    Meter "dirty" pages written to DB2 table spaces (disk) from CF or local buffer pools

    DB2 uses 300 tasks (DB2 writers - it could be more now with later DB2 releases) to write modified (aka, "dirty") pages to the DB2 table spaces (either permanent tables or DB2 work files). From a DB2 perspective this is "efficient" but from a resou...

    DB2 z/OS security; hide install SYSADM and SYSOPR from DSNZPARM; use RACF instead

    In DB2 z/OS, no group and/or userids are more powerful than the Install SYSADM and to no small degree the Install SYSOPR. Yet, these userids and/or groups are easily found by anyone having access to a db2 subsystem and knowing the existance of DSN...

    Display Trace owner when OPx buffer used

    The -DISPLAY TRACE(*) command does not indicate which address space owns the trace when the destination is OPx. Since the OPx destination must be managed by some product/address space it would be helpful to know this. A typical scenario: The syspr...

    Currently STOP DATABASE SPACENAM is a prerequisite of ALTER TABLESPACE USING STOGROUP We wish DB2 can remove this restriction.
