Advanced "db2batch" command Tips and Techniques

98% of our audience learned something! During today's show, Paul shared his excellent IDUG presentation in which he details his experiences, tips, and advice for using the IBM DB2 LUW "db2batch" command. There are many options to consider. By using the right options, you can Run and Explain your SQL, limit outputs, and choose various levels of performance details. Watch our replay to learn all the tricks...


Show Host Scott Hayes Commentary

Paul Turpin has been a friend for many years, and it has been a delight to watch him contribute to the DB2 community through IDUG and his local RUG. Inspired by his daughter, whenever Paul presents he brings along BONGO to be part of his audience!

Consider volunteering for IDUG in any capacity, or submit presentations to become a speaker - and get a free badge if accepted! The call for Presentations for IDUG NA 2015 Philadelphia is NOW OPEN! This presentation on DB2 LUW db2batch is EXCELLENT!.

I hope you enjoy this replay and learn great ideas from it. Because Paul is not an independent DB2 consultant or trainer (implying he does not make a living from his materials), he has graciously permitted us to share a PDF of his slides for handy reference. This does not mean, however, that you can skip the replays - to the contrary, Paul adds a lot of value in what he says! BONGO agrees!

BONGO!
Bongo!
