During an installation or upgrade, PowerExchange now uses the DB2BINDB and DB2SGENB members in the RUNLIB library to bind the DB2 plan and packages and to upgrade the capture directory tables for all supported versions of DB2 for z/OS CDC sources.
Previously, PowerExchange used the DB2BIND and DB2 DB2SGEN8 members for DB2 sources earlier than Version 11 by default. For DB2 11 and later sources, you had to select the
DB2 V11+
option on the
DB2 CDC Parameters
page of the
z/OS Installation Assistant
to use the DB2BINDB and DB2GENB members, which are required for these later versions.
Now, when you run the jobs that bind the DB2 plan during an installation or upgrade, PowerExchange automatically uses the DB2BINDB and DB2GENB members for all supported DB2 or z/OS versions. Because the
DB2 V11+
option is no longer necessary to distinguish among bind members, it has been removed from the z/OS Installation Assistant. This change helps simplify the installation and upgrade process.
