Not long ago, a colleague of mine sent to me an e-mail message that he'd received from a person who supports DB2 for z/OS at a US-based company. In this message the IT professional wrote of some DB2-accessing application programs that were running into lock contention issues with page-level locking (the default) in effect. He knew that going to row-level locking for the target tables (accomplished by altering the associated table spaces with LOCKSIZE(ROW)) would likely resolve the locking confli

The title of this article is quite a mouthful, and three very complex and broadly-scoped disciplines mashed together.

I have long been a big fan of DB2 for z/OS native SQL procedures, but I also recognized early on that putting this technology to use would require DB2 DBAs to learn some new things. Much of this newness has to do with the fact that for a native SQL procedure (and for its more recently arrived cousin, the "native" SQL scalar function , also known as a compiled SQL scalar function or a non-inline SQL scalar function), there is no external-to-DB2 executable -- no object module, no load module.

Typeface preferences are subjective. That said, some fonts are just more readable than others. This is true even in "code view". Code editors should generally use a monospaced font (a font where each character is the same width), as this allows us to see patterns within lines of code more easily. But your font does not have to be awful. Like Courier New.
