Db2 for i includes Reorganize progress indicators as noted in the dialog of this RFE.
The IBM Lab Services team can assist clients in reviewing and improving their approach to reorganization of rows, and other business critical database engineering topics. Further, SQL can be used to assess the existence of and location of deleted records, which can help identify the best reorganization approach, the ideal starting row for the reorg, and lastly as an additional technique to measure the progress of a on-going reorg.
If the CANCEL(*NO) is being used for the reorg, the outage can be lessened by the use of Db2 SMP.
Additionally, there could be a review of the index maintenance strategy to yield a smaller total elapsed time.
If a client would like to evaluate Db2 SMP, contact Scott Forstie (forstie@us.ibm.com) or Rob Bestgen (bestgen@us.ibm.com)
If you use ALWCANCEL(*YES) you can see the progress of reorganize.
While neither ACS nor Navigator update the status on the list of reorganizations. If you highlight a given row or set of rows and select e Display Status, both Navigator and ACS automatically update the status on that screen.
