Online schema evolution
Add a partition to the end of a tableRotate partitions (empty first, rotate to last)Extend CHAR(n) column lengthsChange type within character data types (CHAR, VARCHAR)
Increase column and change type within numeric data types (SMALLINT, INT, FLOAT, REAL, DOUBLE, DECIMAL)
Change type graphic data types(GRAPHIC, VARGRAPHIC)
Includes column data type changes for columns that are referenced within a view

Data-partitioned secondary index (DPSI)
Index physically partitioned on data page range like table
Number of parts in DPSI = number of parts in table Keys in part 'n' of DPSI refer only to rows in part 'n'
of tableAvailability and efficiency benefits
Eliminate REORG BUILD2 phase Improve index recovery Facilitate parallel partition processing Eliminate LOAD PART contention Reduce data sharing overhead

Data-partitioned secondary index (DPSI) ...
But some tradeoffs for index use Need to check multiple partitions Not for unique indexes
Unbundling partitioned table attributes Partition without an index
May be able to have one less index Cluster on any index
May be able to have more efficient clusteringFor example
Partition by dateCluster by account
Alter the CLUSTER attribute

4096 partitionsMax number of parts raised from 254 to 4096
Table spaces and indexes Table space must have LARGE or DSSIZE to go beyond 254 parts
ALTER TABLE ... ADD PART adds partitions to the endMax table size remains 16TB for 4 KB pagesDataset naming convention

Data sharing enhancements ...Changed pages written to GBP at Phase 1 instead of Phase 2
Some transaction managers spawn other transactions at SYNCPOINT
Spawned transactions can encounter "record not found" if it tries to read originating transaction's update from another member
Rare, but a few customers have reported it Moving writes up to phase1 by default; removes
need to monitor for this and to set IMMEDWRITE PH1 DSNZPARM or BIND option if needed
Equivalent performance for phase 1 vs. phase 2 writes

Aggregated accounting data
RRS attach and DDF accounting records can now be aggregated based on:
End user's ID (QWHCEUID)End user transaction name (QWHCEUTX)End user workstation name (QWHCEUWN)
JDBC, SQLJ, RRS attach, and DDF are all enhanced to accept the above values any time during unit of work
ZPARM for controlling aggregation DSN6SYSP ACCUMACC Aggregation can be turned on / off dynamically
