I searched the online Information Center with "UTIL_IMPACT_LIM" but nothing
appeared.
Can someone provide more info, like a complete description we should find in
the "configuring DB2 parameters" paragraphs.
Regards,
Jean-Marc

I have installed the fp2 documentation, and looked for UTIL_IMPACT_LIM.
Nothing came back from the search. The value set is 100 in the DBM CFG.
To what things is it applied: backup only for now ?
Which range of values can be set and what is the exact meaning ? Let say I
set this value to 50 ?
I would expect at least a definition of this new parameter, exactly like
others I kind find in the administration Performance PDF guide. I looked and
did not see anything.

Further enhancements (and better documentation and Control Center support) will
follow in future fixpaks, releases (perhaps 8.2) and versions.

This ? So for now, can we consider that reducing this parameter to 50 would
reduce the charge to 50% and this is only applicable to the BACKUP command
(I'm guessing from the Release Notes) ? Can you explain more ?
Thanks & Regards,
Jean-Marc
Prior to v8, FP2, Utilities (BACKUP, LOAD etc) had the ability to soak up
close
to 100% of CPU time. With BACKUP, LOAD and REORG all supporting online
access,
this had the ability to make the online access very limited with respect to
timeslices. So, we've implemented "utilities throttling" - this config
parameter
is the first step toward you allowing utilities to run online, but specify
how
much they can affect standard workloads, whether they are transactional or
decision support.
Further enhancements (and better documentation and Control Center support)
will
follow in future fixpaks, releases (perhaps 8.2) and versions.
