TABLESPACE LOGGED NO-integrity available even Rollback

We wonder a new type LOGGED tablespace attribute, similar to LOGGED NO but without any consequences at Rollback processes.

Currently TABLESPACE LOGGED NO doesn´t log Row changes, but:

  • TS change to Icopy state at first Row change

  • TS change to RecPending, LPL at any Rollback operation

We suggest a new LOGGED NO-INTEGRITY tablespace option with assume Lose of data integrity for that TS, so it can remain operative (RW, Icopy) even at Rollback event.

We understand this is quite a controversial idea, but it would let in some few specific tables:

  • Avoid LOG-cost

  • Provide the chance to remain that row in the table even if the Unit-of-work is Rolled-back

Example of use: typical Log-Applications tables containing which transactions had been executed (date, user, data entrance). Currently is achieved controlling message-errors, by application programming but it generates huge Db2-LOG activity.

Thank’s for letting us contribute to Db2
