Traveler 9.0.1.8 Fixes and DBMaint Command

A new Traveler Version has been released to day.

There are a couple of important fixes and you should consider updating soon.
Below you find a fix list.

There is also a new Traveler command mainly for enterprise database management called DBMaint.

Here is a link to the updated documentation section --> http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSYRPW_9.0.1/IBMTravelerDatabaseMaintenance.html

Because it is brand new I have to check how it works in detail and there is a planned Open Mic Session that will deal with this new functionality as well.

This update is important for stand-alone and HA configurations.
My Traveler server is already updated...



Usage: tell traveler DBMaint
Where includes:
 Run                                  - Immediately performs online maintenance. If the server is standalone, then it will configure maintenance to run on restart.
 Show                                 - Displays various database maintenance scheduling information.
 Fragmentation                        - Recommends database maintenance based on fragmentation levels.
 Set Interval                  - Sets the interval of days in which automatic database maintenance will perform.
 Set Time                     - Sets the time in 24-hour format in which automatic database will perform.
 Set Day          - Sets the day of the week for the first scheduled automatic maintenance to start from.
                                         Set to off if you want the first scheduled maintenance to be based off of the last maintenance time.
  Set Threshold               - Configures automatic database maintenance to check fragmentation levels before it will execute.
  Set Auto                    - Enablement for automatic database maintenance.
                                         Re-enablement will reschedule maintenance if either the time or interval have changed.
  Set Indexes                 - Configures the number of fragmented indexes for the fragmentation threshold.
  Set Ownership                        - Configures ownership of database maintenance to this server. This server will be
                                         the only server that can perform automatic database maintenance.
  Set Percent <0-100>                  - (ONLY FOR SQL SERVER) Configures the fragmentation percentage of indexes for the fragmentation threshold.
  Set Functions <1-4>                  - (ONLY FOR DB2) Configures the number of functions that are used to determine if an index is fragmented for the fragmentation threshold.
