If you can't see the images, please read the DB2 Magazine newsletter online.
The latest blogger to add to your list of DB2-related readings is none other than Robert Catterall, DB2 DBA columnist and answerer of many reader questions, including this latest round:
Will tuning DB2 for z/OS buffer pools lead to a reduction in package CPU TIME in a DB2 monitor accounting report? I expected to see a reduction in elapsed time and suspension time. I expected SRB time to shrink, but I thought the CPU TIME reported for each package would remain more or less the same. But in looking at before and after tuning data, I'm seeing reduced CPU.
Read Robert's response, or browse the archive of past Q&As, DB2 DBA columns, and e-books.
