If you set the DB2_BAR_STATS registry variable to ON additional info will be provided in the db2diag.log. You also get the size so you can track backup size. Nice little Redbook on this and backup performance at http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/tips1344.html?Open
I get asked for this information all the time so I thought I would share the link with all of you….

10:30-11:45 “ DB2 HADR Multiple Standby Deep Dive”
Presenter: Dale McInnis, IBM
In this presentation we will look at the details behind running HADR in a multiple standby environment. How does the configuration differ from a single standby and what restrictions are there. Best practices on how to provide automation in the case of a disaster will be examined.
11:45 -1:00 Lunch – Sponsored By: Gunning Technology Solutions
1:00 – 2:15 “DB2 Row and Column Access Control (RCAC)”
Presenter: Phil Gunning, Gunning Technology Solutions
Attend this session to learn how control access to data using RCAC. The Encrypt and Decrypt functions have been deprecated in DB2 10.5 and beyond and RCAC is the new way of protecting columns and rows from unauthorized access. This session will provide examples of how to implement RCAC and how to use groups and roles to protect data. Along with Db2 Native Encryption, this provides a powerful solution to protect your data.
2:15 – 2:30 Closing
If you are planning your migration to Db2 11 you need to pay attention to supported Windows levels….http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21665082
Moving from 9.7 to 11? Windows 2008 Server not supported. See the requirements per Db2 Version here: https://www.ibm.com/software/reports/compatibility/clarity-reports/report/html/softwareReqsForProduct?deliverableId=C4F0F2105FF511E6865BC3F213DB63F7&osPlatforms=Windows&duComponentIds=S001%7CS006%7CS005%7CS003%7CS004%7CA002%7CA007%7CA008&mandatoryCapIds=183%7C25&optionalCapIds=30%7C341%7C47%7C17%7C1%7C20%7C28
If you are still relying on snapshots, you might want to take a look at snapshot monitoring views introduced in Db2 9.7. Although Db2 9.7 has been out of support for some time, I find there are many companies still working on moving off it to a supported releases. If you are in this boat, use this Developer works article to get you moving to the new monitoring. https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/data/library/techarticle/dm-1306snapshotmonitoring/index.html
This is a web interface that was announced at SHARE today. Check it out at https://zowe.org/. Zowe
