Question

Hi
I want to use db2 10 for zos.
If anyone has experience about bugs ,problems or any related link of DB2 v.10, please reply?

thanks for your attention.

Answer 1

If you’re running z/OS, you will, or should, have a contract with IBM. In that case, you will have access to PMR/APAR information that IBM publish.

You just do a search on the product COMPID(s) to discover any issues and fixes.

If you don’t have such an agreement with IBM (though, seriously, why would you spend all that money of the OS and products and not get support?) , head on over to the DB2/z product page and look at the “Product Support” link. The page that brings up has information on all the recent and important PTFs that you should examine.

The COMPIDs from the DB2/z v10 Program Directory are:
