DB2 9 for Z/OS by Paolo Bruni,Mike Bracey,Rubina Goolamhussen,Ravikumar Kalyanasundaram,Bart Steegmans Pdf

Locking is the generic term used to refer to the database management system function that is required for managing interprocess concurrency and maintaining data integrity. However, locking is just one of the serialization mechanisms available in IBM℗ʼ DB2℗ʼ for z/OS℗ʼ. DB2 uses different mechanisms for serialization to achieve its goal of maximizing concurrency without losing integrity with a minimum cost in CPU, I/O, and storage resources. In this IBM Redbooks℗ʼ publication, we review and explore the different serialization mechanisms used in DB2, such as transaction (DML) locking, claims and drains, restrictive states, latching, and optimistic serialization. This book was written for application developers in order to help them better understand serialization mechanisms and how they influence application design decisions.

Co-locating Transactional and Data Warehouse Workloads on System z by Mike Ebbers,Dino Tonelli,Jason Arnold,Patric Becker,Yuan-Chi Chang,Willie Favero,Shantan Kethireddy,Nin Lei,Shirley Lin,Ron Lounsbury,Susan Widing Lynch,Cristian Molaro,Deepak Rangarao,Michael Schapira,IBM Redbooks Pdf

As business cycles speed up, many customers gain significant competitive advantage from quicker and more accurate business decision-making by using real data. For many customers, choosing the path to co-locate their transactional and analytical workloads on System z® better leverages their existing investment in hardware, software, and skills. We created a project to address a number of best practice questions on how to manage these newer, analytical type workloads, especially when co-located with traditional transactional workloads. The goal of this IBM® Redbooks® publication is to provide technical guidance and performance trade-offs associated with resource management and potentially DB2® data-sharing in a variety of mixed transactional / data warehouse System z topologies. The term co-location used here and in the rest of the book is specifically defined as the practice of housing both transactional (OLTP) and data warehouse (analytical) workloads within the same System z configuration. We also assumed that key portions of the transactional and data warehouse databases would reside on DB2 for z/OS®. The databases may or may not reside in a DB2 data-sharing environment; we discuss those pros and cons in this book. The intended audience includes DB2 data warehouse architects and practitioners who are facing choices in resource management and system topologies in the data warehouse arena. This specifically includes Business Intelligence (BI) administrators, DB2 database administrators (DBAs) and z/OS performance administrators / systems programmers. In addition, decision makers and architects can utilize this book to assist in making platform and database topology decisions. The book is divided into four parts. Part I, "Introducing the co-location project" covers the System z value proposition and why one should consider System z as the central platform for their data warehousing / business analytics needs. Some topics are risk avoidance via data consolidation, continuous availability, simplified disaster recovery, IBM Smart Analytics Optimizer, reduced network bandwidth requirements, and the unique virtualization and resource management capabilities of System z LPAR, z/VM® and WLM. Part I also provides some of the common System z co-location topologies along with an explanation of the general pros and cons of each. This would be useful input for an architect to understand where a customer is today and where they might consider moving to. Part II, "Project environment" covers the environment, products, workloads, workload drivers, and data models implemented for this study. The environment consisted of a logically partitioned z10TM 32way, running z/VM, Linux®, and z/OS operating system instances. On those instances we ran products such as z/OS DB2 V9, IBM Cognos® Business Intelligence Version 8.4 for Linux on System z, InfoSphereTM Warehouse for System z, InfoSphere Change Data Capture, z/OS WebSphere® V7, Tivoli® Omegamon for DB2 Performance expert. Utilizing these products we created transactional (OLTP), data warehouse query, and data warehouse refresh workloads. All the workloads were based on an existing web-based transactional Bookstore workload, that's currently utilized for internal testing within the System p® and z labs. While some IBM Cognos BI and ISWz product usage and experiences information is covered in this book, we do not go into the depth typically found in IBM Redbooks publications, since there's another book focused specifically on that

SAP on DB2 for z/OS and OS/390: High Availability and Performance Monitoring with Data Sharing by Viviane Anavi-Chaput,David Bellion,Tim Bohlsen,Humberto Carrasco,Mike Gordon,Flavio Lima,Mary Siart,Mike Zazulak,IBM Redbooks Pdf

This IBM Redbooks publication addresses the challenges posed by monitoring high availability, scalability, and performance in an SAP sysplex data sharing environment. It introduces the motivations for utilizing a design based on DB2 data sharing. It includes the principal SAP-DB2 data sharing architecture options and trade-offs used in the industry today and issues that play a role in both high availability and scalability, such as failover design, database connectivity design, workload splitting and load balancing, MCOD, and coupling facility design. The book discusses single point of failure, important failover scenarios and outage avoidance, automation of high availability constructs, and backup and recovery considerations in data sharing environments. Performance issues are detailed in the order you would approach them at planning and implementation time. First, it discusses tuning the sysplex, which is the base for a well-performing DB2 data sharing system, then tuning the DB2 data sharing system, which is the base for a well-performing SAP system, and finally, tuning the SAP system. The book focuses on initial planning for performance and monitoring it afterward, and explains the key points to look for to health-check your system and maintain high performance.

DB2 9 for z/OS Performance Topics by Paolo Bruni,Kevin Harrison,Garth Oldham,Leif Pedersen,Giuseppe Tino,IBM Redbooks Pdf

DB2 9 for z/OS is an exciting new version, with many improvements in performance and little regression. DB2 V9 improves availability and security, as well as adds greatly to SQL and XML functions. Optimization improvements include more SQL functions to optimize, improved statistics for the optimizer, better optimization techniques, and a new approach to providing information for tuning. V8 SQL procedures were not eligible to run on the IBM System z9 Integrated Information Processor (zIIP), but changing to use the native SQL procedures on DB2 V9 makes the work eligible for zIIP processing. The performance of varying length data can improve substantially if there are large numbers of varying length columns. Several improvements in disk access can reduce the time for sequential disk access and improve data rates. The key DB2 9 for z/OS performance improvements include reduced CPU time in many utilities, deep synergy with IBM System z hardware and z/OS software, improved performance and scalability for inserts and LOBs, improved SQL optimization, zIIP processing for remote native SQL procedures, index compression, reduced CPU time for data with varying lengths, and better sequential access. Virtual storage use below the 2 GB bar is also improved. This IBM Redbooks publication provides an overview of the performance impact of DB2 9 for z/OS, especially performance scalability for transactions, CPU, and elapsed time for queries and utilities. We discuss the overall performance and possible impacts when moving from version to version. We include performance measurements that were made in the laboratory and provide some estimates. Keep in mind that your results are likely to vary, as the conditions and work will differ. In this book, we assume that you are familiar with DB2 V9. See DB2 9 for z/OS Technical Overview, SG24-7330, for an introduction to the new functions.
