Workspace Db2 for z/OS

Set Partition Index, DPSI to the same DSSIZE as Tablespace when converting to RPN and ALTER TABLESPACE DSSIZE is after ALTER TABLESPACE PAGENUM RELATIVE

In numerous cases it is impossible to put the ALTER TABLESPACE DSSIZE in front of the ALTER TABLESPACE PAGENUM RELATIVE due to the number of partitions and page size. Currently this only works with the following. After the reorg materialization the TS, IX will be 32G.


ALTER TABLESPACE DSSIZE 32G;

ALTER TABLESPACE PAGENUM RELATIVE;


Doing it in reverse leaves the indexes with the same DSSIZE as before the change. A subsequent ALTER INDEX needs to be done after the REORG.


ALTER TABLESPACE PAGENUM RELATIVE;

ALTER TABLESPACE DSSIZE 32G;


DB2 should not care about the sequence and the DSSIZE of the index in this case should be the same in both cases.
