Enhancement Description
Advanced Log Space Management (ALSM)

Advanced Log Space Management (ALSM) helps to minimize application failures caused by log full errors (SQL0964N) as the result of a long running transaction holding back the active log. This is particularly useful if such a long running transaction does not generate much transaction log data in comparison to other concurrently running transactions.
