Oh, The Things I’ve Seen

Craig Mullins – President and Principal Consultant
Mullins Consulting, Inc.

With a nod to Dr. Suess, this presentation discusses a few Db2 best practices based on experiences I’ve encountered during my consulting career. It takes a look at actual scenarios (without naming names) to explore situations that can arise in any organization.

Some of the things covered include RUNSTATS, RID failures, lock escalation, and more. And the entire presentation is delivered in a Dr. Seuss-like way… some of it even rhymes!
