Parallel processing access (PARALLELISM_MODE='I', 'C', or 'X')

DB2® can use parallel processing for read-only queries.

Begin program-specific programming interface information.
If the PARALLELISM_MODE value is:
DB2 plans to use:
I
Parallel I/O operations. Start of changeQuery I/O parallelism is deprecated and is likely to be removed in a future release.End of change
C
Parallel CP operations.
X
Sysplex query parallelism. Start of changeSysplex query parallelism is deprecated and is likely to be removed in a future release.End of change

Non-null values in the ACCESS_DEGREE and JOIN_DEGREE columns indicate the degree of parallelism that DB2 plans to use. However, at execution time, DB2 might not actually use parallelism, or use fewer operations in parallel than originally planned.
