Fully replication support of Db2 data type XML with IDR Queue Replication especially for the case the Queue message size is limited because of using Shared Queues based on Coupling Facility structures

We replicate a lot of changes of our operational zDb2 data to a Db2 LUW (BLU) via IDR Queue Replication. The Db2 BLU is used as the data base of our datawarehouse processes. The Queue Replication uses Shared Queues which are mapped on Coupling Fac...

Request for re-try / reconnect mechanism

We'd like to request Replication to have re-try / reconnect mechanism even without MQ multiple instances. Because currently it doesn’t support MQ multiple instances, we can use SLB, but if it has no re-connect, we can do nothing.

Q-Replication Apply program shall be able to recognize if a column-organized table contains already a dictionary

Hello, the current implementation of the Q-Replication apply program for an automatic LOAD operation on column-organized target tables does not recognize if a dictionary already exist. A column compression dictionary is used to compress data...

ASNCLP should support LARGE tablespaces and AUTOMATIC storage options for Db2

With Db2 11.5 SQL Replication, USING PROMOTE REGISTRATION in ASNCLP to generate a script to run later, the tablespace definitions are created incorrectly for existing tablespaces defined as LARGE and using AUTOMATIC storage. LARGE tablespaces a...

Db2 LUW - SQL replication should optionally use TRUNCATE when performing a Full Refresh of large tables

Db2 LUW SQL Replication (10.2.1) When you run a Full Refresh of a subscription set, the asnapply utility issues a DELETE FROM <target table> prior to the refresh of the data. For large tables this has a significant and unnecessary overhead...
