DB2 Text Search stand-alone server deployment
DB2 Text Search now supports a stand-alone server setup in addition to an integrated setup.
DB2 Text Search supports partitioned database environments
DB2 Text Search supports full-text search in a partitioned database environment.
DB2 Text Search supports partitioned tables

FP3: Committing batches for DB2 Text Search workloads
In DB2 Version 10.1 Fix Pack 3 and later fix packs, DB2 Text Search provides more options for finer control of update processing.
FP3: New DB2 Text Search configuration options control index updates
In DB2 Version 10.1 Fix Pack 3 and later fix packs, you can use the INITIALMODE and LOGTYPE options of the INDEX CONFIGURATION parameter of the CREATE INDEX command to control update processing.
FP3: Command locks can be set manually for DB2 Text Search
In DB2 Version 10.1 Fix Pack 3 and later fix packs, you can perform administrative operations one at a time to a specific text index. To prevent conflicts, a command lock is automatically set when an operation starts and is removed when an operation ends. However, text indexes might also be affected by operations that are not managed through DB2 Text Search. For such cases, you can now set the command lock manually.
