Control DB2 z/OS IFCID 376 trace volume

When we need to turn on IFCID 376 trace to get information, the trace is an all or nothing setting for the system. In our case, the volume generates in excess of 56 million IFCID 376 records in a day. 99.9% of them are 1108: Long client special Re...

This stat is useful and required to tune EDM pool appropriately. This would be useful for DB2 systems programmer and DB2 Performance Teams. We had a case opened and the decision is to externalize this feature only with v13. It would be great to ha...

Add SchemaName to IFCID 350 to be able to qualify SQL from JDBC

Message when IFI interface and monitor traces are disabled due to errors

Secure Db2 audit trace activation without possibility to stop or modify for Db2 admins

ACCUMACC for CICS transactions

ACCUMACC exists to aggregate accounting records for DDF transactions. It would be nice to have the same functionnality with classic transactions (CICS/IMS ..) because it reflects a today usage of these transaction monitoring systems. Without these...
