This topic provides instructions for migrating query acceleration tables from a single
segmented table space (SYSACCEL) to individual universal table spaces (UTSs).
Before you begin
Attention: Before you migrate the acceleration tables to universal tables spaces, make
sure that an accelerator has already been defined on your system. If you do not already have an
accelerator defined on your system, defer this migration task until an accelerator has been
defined.
About this task
Migrating the query acceleration tables to individual UTSs is optional and can be deferred.
However, if you are experiencing frequent timeout issues on the query acceleration tables, you
should consider migrating.
If you choose to migrate the query acceleration tables from a single segmented table space to
individual UTSs, you must complete all three of the following subtasks:
- Complete the pre-migration steps, which are documented in this topic.
- Run job DSNTIJAM, which migrates the tables.
- Complete the post-migration steps, which are also documented in this topic.
Procedure
Complete the following pre-migration steps:
-
Apply the PTF for APAR PI96858 (UI56078) and for APAR PI96859 (UI56897), or
verify that these PTFs are applied.
In a Db2 data sharing group, these
PTFs must be applied on all members of the group.
-
After the PTFs for APAR
PI96858 are applied, restart Db2 or,
for a data sharing group, restart each member.
-
Verify that the following Db2 query
acceleration tables are present in the DSNACCEL.SYSACCEL table space and that they are at same level
as PI91620
(UI54293):
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATORS
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLES
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDPACKAGES
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLESAUTH
Also, verify that column 13 of the SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLES table is the REMOTELOCATION
column.
-
Drop, re-create, and rename any user-defined table spaces in the DSNACCEL database that are
named SYSTSACC, SYSTSACT, SYSTSACP, or SYSTSATA.
These names are reserved for the new UTSs in which the Db2 query acceleration tables will
reside.
- Drop any user-defined objects in table space DSNACCEL.SYSACCEL, and re-create them in
another table space.
When you run the DSNTIJAM job to migrate the query acceleration tables, the DSNACCEL.SYSACCEL
table space and all of its objects will be dropped and re-created. However, only the following query
acceleration tables and indexes will be re-created in the appropriate table space:
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATORS
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLES
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDPACKAGES
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLESAUTH
- SYSACCEL.DSNACC01
- SYSACCEL.DSNACT01
- SYSACCEL.DSNACP01
- SYSACCEL.DSNACP02
- SYSACCEL.DSNATA01
Therefore, if you created any user-defined objects in the DSNACCEL.SYSACCEL table space other
than the ones in the previous list, you must drop and re-create them in another table space.
-
Rename any table that has the same name as the following tables.
These names are reserved for the intermediate query acceleration tables that will be used
during migration.
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATOR1
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLE1
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDPACKAGE1
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLESAUTH1
-
Rename any index that has the same name as the following indexes.
These names are reserved for the indexes of the intermediate query acceleration tables that
will be used during migration.
- SYSACCEL.DSNACC1
- SYSACCEL.DSNACT1
- SYSACCEL.DSNACP1
- SYSACCEL.DSNACP2
- SYSACCEL.DSNATA1
-
Save any dependencies and authorization records for the following Db2 query acceleration objects so that you can
re-create them after migration.
These dependencies can include views, triggers, and masks, as well as authorizations,
referential integrity definitions, check constraints, history versioning, and comments.
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATORS
- SYSACCEL.DSNACC01
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLES
- SYSACCEL.DSNACT01
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDPACKAGES
- SYSACCEL.DSNACP01
- SYSACCEL.DSNACP02
- SYSACCEL.SYSACCELERATEDTABLESAUTH
- SYSACCEL.DSNATA01
Additionally, if the DSN6SPRM.ABIND subsystem parameter is set to NO, identify all packages that
are dependent on the DSNACCEL.SYSACCEL table space. You must explicitly rebind these packages after
you complete the migration.
Attention: Because the DSNACCEL.SYSACCEL table space will be dropped during migration,
failure to complete this step prior to running DSNTIJAM can result in the loss of administrative
control of the accelerator and render it unusable and not easily recoverable.
-
Set the Db2
DSN6SPRM.QUERY_ACCEL_OPTIONS subsystem parameter to a value of 98, which is a
special serviceability option that indicates that the migration of the query acceleration tables is
in progress. For a data sharing group, set this subsystem parameter to 98 for
each member of the data sharing group. Setting this subsystem parameter to 98
eliminates interference from other Db2
workloads.
-
Create a temporary copy of your current customized copy of the DSNTIJUZ job.
-
Edit the temporary copy of DSNTIJUZ and set the QUERY_ACCEL_OPTIONS parameter to a value of
98. If necessary, remember to add a continuation character in column
72.
-
Run the first two steps of the temporary DSNTIJUZ job.
-
After the job completes, issue the -SET SYSPARM command, or stop and restart Db2 to enable this change.
-
Delete the temporary copy of DSNTIJUZ.
-
Issue the STOP ACCEL command (all query offload), stop all query accelerator data maintenance
(incremental update and stored procedure jobs), and disconnect Data Studio from the database. For a
data sharing group, complete these steps for each member of the data sharing group.
What to do next
After you successfully complete the pre-migration steps, customize and run the DSNTIJAM job to
migrate the table spaces, and confirm that it completes with a return code of 0. Then, return to
this topic and complete the following post-migration steps to re-enable query acceleration.
- Run the AQTTIJSP job with the MODE(INSTALL) parameter.
- Reset the DSN6SPRM.QUERY_ACCEL_OPTIONS subsystem parameter back to its original value to
indicate that the migration of the query acceleration tables is no longer in progress:
- Run the first two steps of your original customized copy of job DSNTIJUZ.
- After the job completes, either issue the -SET SYSPARM command or stop and restart Db2 to enable this change.
- Re-create the dependencies and authorization records that you saved in step 8 of the per-migration steps.
If the
DSN6SPRM.ABIND subsystem parameter is set to NO, explicitly rebind the packages that you identified
in step 8.
- Issue the START ACCEL command, start all query accelerator data maintenance (incremental update
and stored procedure jobs), and reconnect to Data Studio. For a data sharing group, complete these
steps for each member of the data sharing group.
