Request for RUNSTATS SHRLEVEL REFERENCE with SAMPLE to update RTS TOTALROWS

Recovery to PIT or to current, and non-standard recovery methods such as DSN1COPY or DF/SMS dataset DUMP/RESTORE from flashcopy backups can leave TOTALROWS set to 0, NULL or invalid values. Trying to run something like a REBUILD index relies on TO...

Drop indexes with uniquerule P and C

When a tablespace is converted from PBG to PBR or even PBR-PBG-PBR all indexes become non-partitioned. There will not be a solution to convert non-partitioned indexes to partitioned. Instead IBM point to DB24ZOS-I-553 to create new unique indexes ...

New Authorization for SELECT all tables (DataSelect)

We use the DataAccess Auth to let Select. Insert, Update & Delete on all tables. But we'll appreciate also a new Auth for letting only Select on all tables. That's why we thought about the name DataSelect.

TRIGGERS referencing system temporal tables

Hello, Since we are in DB2 V10 we use triggers with bi-temporal tables (system temporal + business temporal table) to implement complex relational integrity rules that can not be defined using standard primary/foreign keys. It's related to simple ...

Violation of referential integrity - enrich the inaccurate messagetext DSNT408I for sqlcode -530 with parent <> child information

If the insert in a child table is not successful because the foreign key value does not match with a primary key value for a given relationship DB2 sends DSNT408I. Looking into this messagetext you will find only the name of the relationship. That...

RID problem instrumentation improvement

The IFI 2 & 3 fields QISTRLLM and QISTRPLM and the RID fields in the 316 and 401 are all basically “useless” these days to actually detect a RID related limit problem. I know that the QXRFMIAP is available in the IFI 2 & 3 but it is needed...

Allow RUNSTATS SHRLEVEL CHANGE to operate as the name says

This RFE is a result of the PMRs (31614,112,848) we have opened where the root cause was identified as invalid values in RTS tables. Current design allows to re-initialize certain fields in RTS (eg. TOTALROWS) only by executing RUNSTATS SHRLEVEL R...
