A Buffet of DB2 LUW Tips and Advice

Replays available in WMV and M4V formats!

100% of our audience learned something! Today's "special guests" included six contestants that shared some very helpful and creative DB2 LUW tips. Our judges chose their favorite two to advance to the March finals. Watch the replay to learn about redirected restores, alternatives to db2imigr and db2iupgrade, statistical views, the db2gcf command, MQTs, and the ADMIN_MOVE_TABLE stored procedure! Watch the replay, learn, and VOTE!


Show Host Scott Hayes Commentary

As usual, judge Susan Visser, IBM, did another AWESOME job blogging about today's show, our contestants, and their presentations. CLICK HERE to read Susan Visser's excellent summary! And, THANKS Susan!

The call for contestant applications closes at 11pm CST on 10 February 2012. Thank you to all of our contestants for your willingness to share your knowledge with the DB2 community.

I personally thought Renu's presentation on DB2 statistical views was excellent. I am hereby using my discretion as the show host, representing show sponsor DBI Software, to award Renu a $25.00 Amazon.com Gift Certificate! Thank you Renu!
