Rob, I was going to ask the same question: About the necessity of (probably daily) restarting of DB2. There was a time - ten years or so ago - when a substantial minority DID restart DB2 nightly. Even with the Virtual Storage crunches going on it seemed a not-so-good idea. An example of why would be need to (re)prime buffer pools, EDM Pool etc.
I'm interested in what people people do nowadays. I have a view but my customer set may be unusual. :-) Thanks, Martin Martin Packer, Mainframe Performance Consultant, zChampion Worldwide Banking Center of Excellence, IBM +44-7802-245-584 email: [email protected] Twitter / Facebook IDs: MartinPacker Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
