Server question: how to get a larger DB2 table size


Tom Frauenhofer (1.3k58435) | asked Aug 14 '08, 11:57 p.m.
Hi

What's the correct way to increase the size of the DB2 tables used by
Jazz ??

In teamserver.properties, the attribute
"com.ibm.team.repository.db.db2.content.tablespace.numpages" defines the
size of the DB2 tablespace but I had understood that its value can't be
altered after the table is created.

Do I need to export and re-import the data to increase the size ?

Cheers

You are right about the
"com.ibm.team.repository.db.db2.content.tablespace.numpages" property.
That is used only for the initial creation of the tablespace.

You can change the size of the tablespace after the initial creation by
using the DB2 commands to increase the size. You should be able to
administer the Jazz DB just as you would another DB2 database. Here is
some documentation about how to resize the tablespace in DB2:

One option is to turn on the tablespace auto-resize function, which can
be enabled through the DB2 command

ALTER TABLESPACE CONTENTTS AUTORESIZE YES
