Concurrency and compatibility for STOSPACE

The STOSPACE utility has certain concurrency and compatibility characteristics associated with it.

STOSPACE does not set a utility restrictive state on the target object.

STOSPACE can run concurrently with any utility on the same target object. However, because STOSPACE updates the catalog, concurrent STOSPACE utility jobs or other concurrent applications that update the catalog might cause timeouts and deadlocks.

You can use the STOSPACE utility on storage groups that have objects within temporary databases.
