Merged idea
This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit DB24ZOS-I-419 Every utility should register itself in SYSCOPY.

registration of unload utility Merged

We would like to see who and when executed an
unload utility and on which table/tablespace in a simple way, with the default DB2 code. SO not with an extra payable tool (fe. Guardian) or NOT by auditting all these tables (cpu overhead).

Utilitys are registered in sysibm.syscopy, but not the unload utility. I know, the unload info is not needed for recovery purpose, but I think adding a line in syscopy for an unload utility will be an elegant way to do so :-)
