I recently encountered a situation that served to illuminate a number of important aspects of application processing in the context of the DB2 for z/OS distributed data facility (DDF). I'll go through the scenario here, in hopes that you will find the information to be useful. A systems programmer contacted me about a problem his organization had run into with a new application that accesses DB2 for z/OS by way of a network connection (and so uses DDF).

That's highly preferable to failing as a result of being overloaded, but there is a point at which applications running on a z/OS system will perform in a sub-opt
