CDC needs to be able to "Refresh" tables in Parallel

We have extremely large tables which are replicated and targets are in cloud. Normally all the tables are grouped in few subs. During the initial refresh process , the tables are loaded in sequential order one by one and it takes several hours to ...

IIDR Management Console incompatible to DB2 LUW LOAD Utility.

Change Data Capture (CDC) Subscriptions mirroring from DB2 LUW (Linux) to Event Server (JMS) are constantly failing due to some LOADs performed on DB2 LUW side. We must manually recycle affected LOAD table whenever they fail to restart the subscri...

Allow Db2 columnar table replication via CDC

Truist has obtained 3M+ of Data Replication entitlements in Q1 of 2025 to replicate data from Exadata and Db2 WH to Snowflake. Db2 WH table are all in columnar format and Truist would like for the tables to stay the same way. Our current workaroun...

Support Differential Refresh on DB2 for i (iSeries/ IBMi)

Currently there is no support to perform differential refresh when source/target databases are DB2 for i (iSeries / IBM i) This requires target tables to be cleared to perform a refresh in case there were any issues in replication. We have product...

To find the latency breakdowns with the end to end with different components of CDC

We are trying to find the replication latency values for a subscription. We are seeing a value in the MC Performance tab for a subscription wherein we notice that it’s only the target latency value. And we would like to find the latency breakdowns...

Possibility to load CDC SMF data into Db2 for z/OS tables for reporting

We customized CDC (Apply and Capture Task) to write several statics into SMF. But as of today there is no official support (JCL/ sampling) how to parse and prepare those SMF data to import them into Db2 tables or spreadsheets for further reporting...

CDC Should have the ability to better manage source table structure changes.

Currently the recommendation is to stop all DML activity to a source table in DB2 LUW before changing the table structure. In a 24X7 environment this is not practical. Since DB2 is able to handle the change in real time then CDC should be able to.

Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for Management Console

We have run into a situation where we need to have select access on application objects in order to be able to use Management console. However this type of application access is restricted to our 'privileged' IDs, which use 2FA to login. But Manag...

Refresh table process needs ways to identify possible bootlenecks

During normal Mirroring in a subscription we have the ability to put it into monitoring and the console shows the activity and possible bottlenecks. But during refresh it's like a "black box". We have no way within the product to try to identify t...
