Abstract

[Db2 LUW] No more update for Db2 LUW V9.7/V9.8/V10.1/V10.5 online manuals

Body

QUESTION:
=========

Here is an example, V10.5 vs V11.1.

* IBM DB2 10.5 for Linux, Unix and Windows documentation
* IBM DB2 11.1 for Linux, Unix and Windows documentation
Browsing pages between V11.1 and V10.5 above.  We may find V11.1 page has newer information
than V10.5.  Here is one.

* V11.1, fcm_parallelism - Internode communication parallelism configuration parameter
...
Default [range]

        AUTOMATIC [AUTOMATIC, 1 - 8]
...

* V10.5, fcm_parallelism - Internode communication parallelism configuration parameter
...
Default [range]

        1 [1 - 8]
...

As above, V11.1 page says default is "AUTOMATIC" but V10.5 says "1".  In this particular
case, V11.1 is correct so V10.5 should be updated accordingly.

 

ANSWER:
=======

Unfortunately, there is no plan to update any Db2 LUW V9.7/V9.8/V10.1/V10.5 online
manuals.  It is suggested to update only Db2 LUW V11.1 online manual and it will be
updated each time when a V11.1 official modification/fixpack is released basically.

So it might be suggested to review Db2 LUW V11.1 manual first even if use
V9.7/V9.8/V10.1/V10.5.

Please contact your Sales Rep to submit a potential design change towards a future
release. Or please open a ticket for this matter at:
