Application Migration to DB2 9 for  z/OS - Be Prepared

 

EarlyPrecheck: Features of ImpactExpert support early prechecking of Vnext impacts while still on a Vnow production system

Using a special rule system, the impacts of DB2 version 8  and 9 can now be determined and assessed before the migration of your production system for both static and dynamic SQL.

Our experiences show that certain types of access path changes frequently occur under V8 and 9 are usually unproblematic. ImpactExpert recognizes these typical types of access paths changes, which can generally be ignored, allowing you to focus strictly on access path changes that are more likely to cause performance deterioration. This enormously reduces the effort required for manual checking.

"What's the challenge of DB2 Version 9 for your application environment?"

EarlyPrecheck is a migration aid component that assists customers in moving between DB2 releases or before applying some other type of software or hardware upgrade. It is an automated process that allows you to evaluate and correct access path problems for both dynamic and static SQL prior to an actual DB2 version upgrade. Access path evaluation can be done weeks or months prior to the migration date to allow for in-depth analysis and pre-emptive correction of access path issues.

Let's check your applications for access path changes BEFORE the migration.
