摘要:
Coupling facility store-in cache structures are duplexed in order to improve data availability. That is, once duplexing is established, selective data is written to both a primary structure instance and a secondary structure instance. Thus, if one of the structure instances fails, then the other structure instance is used in order to prevent data from being lost. Duplexing can be started manually and/or automatically by the operating system. Further, a structure may be removed from duplex mode and enter simplex mode, if duplexing is not desired.

Disclosed is a system, method, and program for reorganizing at least one database object. The database object is comprised of at least one database file. Each database file has a name. Source database files including data for the database objects subject to the reorganization have source names. Shadow copies of the source database files are created and shadow names for the shadow copies are generated, such that the source names and corresponding shadow names are different. The data in the shadow copies is reorganized. After the reorganization, the shadow names are used to access the database files for the reorganized database objects.

Various embodiments of a computer-implemented method, system and computer program product are provided. A first plurality of key entries of a first index page are compressed in accordance with an order specified by a first keymap of the first index page. The first keymap also indicates respective positions of the key entries of the first plurality of key entries. A second keymap is generated indicating the order and also indicating respective post-compression positions of the key entries of the first plurality of key entries. The compressed first plurality of key entries is stored on a second index page with the second keymap.

A method and system for controlling concurrency of access to data in a database system, includes: partitioning a table in the database system into a plurality of partitions; receiving a request for access to data; determining a partition of the plurality of partitions that contains the data; determining if the data has been committed; and if so, avoiding locking the partition in response to the request. By avoiding locking the partition when the data has been committed, the number of partition locks that need to be requested from a local resource lock manager is reduced, improving performance.

Provided is a method for online reorganization and increasing the page size of a DB2 object. A base table and related auxiliary table spaces are reorganized concurrently via a database utility, DB2 REORG utility. The database utility determines which auxiliary tables are related to the base table and automatically includes their respective auxiliary table in the same invocation of the utility. The reorganization is performed via allocated shadow data sets; page size of the allocated shadow data sets is dynamically updated during reorganization. The original data sets are switched with the newly built shadow data sets, and DB2 catalog values and control blocks are updated with new page size values.

A method and article of manufacture, implementing the method, allocates space for a dataset. The dataset has an initial area and zero or more additional allocated areas to provide space for storing the dataset. The size of a new additional area is determined. The new additional area is associated with a new area number, and the size of the new additional area is based on the new area number. Additional space for the dataset is allocated based on the size of the new additional area.

According to the method, apparatus, and computer readable medium of the present invention, a scan is performed by accessing all rows of a table in a relational database, evaluating each row to determine whether the row satifies a set of predicates of a database query, and returning the row if it satisfies the set of predicates. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, all rows are evaluated regardless of current locks. The scan is continued if the row does not satisfy the set of predicates regardless of the current lock on the row. The locking semantics according to the invention has the advantage that it completely removes the problem of lock contention on the rows that do not satisfy statement predicates.
摘要:
In a database management system (DBMS) (60) for a database application (10) including a database (12) having a table (14, 16, 18) and a unique key index (42) having indexes (44, 46, 48) therefor, the DBMS (60) includes a data manager (64), an index manager (66), a transaction manager (62), and a lock manager (68) which restricts access to the table by assigning locks to elements thereof. In order to avoid deadlock in the database application due to the pseudo-deleted entries, the lock categories include an X-lock and a Conditional S-lock, and have lock attributes including at least a Delete attribute for the X-lock. The Conditional S-lock is compatible (granted by the lock manager) with an X-lock whose Delete attribute is NOT SET, but is not compatible (granted) with an X-lock whose Delete attribute is SET. Each index entry includes a pseudo-delete flag which is SET by the index manager (66) to indicate deletion of the indexed row. Conditional upon locating a pseudo-deleted index key corresponding to a key to be added to the index, the index manager (66) requests a Conditional S-lock on the row indexed thereby, whereby the index manager (66) verifies the Delete transaction which set the pseudo-delete flag has committed.

Provided is a method, system, program, and data structures for making data available to an application program. A result table is generated including rows corresponding to a subset of rows in a base table having data in one or more columns that satisfy a query predicate clause. The result table includes, for each row, a location identifier of the corresponding row in the base table and a column for each column in a query select list. The result table is accessed to return requested data from the base table to the application program.
