Status Not under consideration
Workspace Db2 for z/OS
Created by Guest
Created on Feb 16, 2017

CREATE or REPLACE VIEW

After a DROP Table the view still exists, but it will only be invalidated;
when the base-table is re-created any references to view will re-validated. Privileges for the View are still valid.

This mechanism already works for DB2 for LUW where one can issue "CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW"

    Thank you for submitting this Db2 for z/OS enhancement request. We have re-reviewed this request and, because it does not align within functionality prioritized for delivery within the next 12 months, we are not considering it at this time.

    This idea will remain in our product backlog and will be revisited as we continue to plan for later features and functions.

    We appreciate your input to the Db2 for z/OS development team. We hope that you will continue to submit enhancement suggestions for improvements as customer feedback is a key component to shaping the future direction of Db2 for z/OS.

    Sincerely,

    The Db2 for z/OS Team

    I would like to see this enhancement extended to the full range of CREATEs, ie CREATE or REPLACE TABLE, INDEX, TABLESPACE, etc..
