The change was delivered as part of the 7.4 Db2 for i PTF Group SF99704 level 16.
Db2 for i development team
IBM Power Systems Development
When this RFE was received and evaluated in early summer, it was too late to implement it for the DB PTF Group that was delivered in September. A solution is currently undergoing its final testing and will be part of the 7.4 Db2 for i PTF Group SF99704 level 16, currently planned to be released on November 12, 2021.
This RFE will be updated when the change is available.
Dear IBM ,
When we will get solution for this case?
can it be in OS 7.5 or as PTF for 7.4 ?
Dear IBM
Please update us about the solution that we asked for 10000+ IBM i users
from all over the world
The CEAC has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a HIGH priority requirement that is important to address.
IBM i 7.4 should not be taking away support that was available in earlier releases, without prior warning.
Background: The COMMON Europe Advisory Council (CEAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CEAC has a crucial role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual RFEs on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your RFE.
To find out how CEAC help to shape the future of IBM i, see CEAC @ ibm.biz/BdYSYj and the article "The Five Hottest IBM i RFEs Of The Quarter" at ibm.biz/BdYSZT

We are investigating a solution with a new QAQQINI option that would only affect processing for OPNQRYF so the estimated number of records will be available like before.
