Available in replay for you convenience, register now.
Developed for: Database administrators
Technical level: Intermediate – advanced
The more complex databases become, the more important it is to simplify recovery processes and improve performance so your databases can continue to grow. Gaining more free space, experiencing fewer out-ofstorage abends and less fragmentation – and having the capability to exploit the large capacities of new processors – go a long way toward improving overall performance of Database Recovery Control in IMS™10.
IMS 10 includes many new enhancements for Database Recovery Control (DBRC), including support for fuzzy user image copies, extended timestamp precision, RECON read-only access, DBRC API update command, and parallel RECON access. Join us for this complimentary teleconference and learn how these enhancements simplify DBRC access by vendor tools, and ease version-to-version upgrades for customers using tools that interface with the RECON data set. We’ll also discuss the IMS Database Recovery Facility (DBRF), a tool that does recovery, creates image copies, validates the database and rebuilds indices.
In this teleconference, you’ll learn about important new features in IMS 10 for DBRC, including:
- Integration of fuzzy user image copies into DBRC environment
- Reduced RECON contention and less interference with online systems from batch jobs and utilities
- DBRC timestamps now recorded to the microsecond to avoid possible duplicate timestamps
- Users need only READ authority to list RECON contents
- Complete API interface for users and IMS tools
- Change access to Parallel RECON without having to shut down IMS
Speakers: Sally Gehring, IMS DBRC Advisory Software Developer and Allen Hall, IMS Tools Software Developer
This teleconference will also be available for replay after the event.
