Back when I was a DB2 for i database administrator, I took a REALLY good course from IBM entitled &quot;DB2 for i SQL and Query Performance and Monitoring Workshop&quot;. In fact, I liked it so much, I took it twice.<br />
<br />
Check out IBM's education site and see if the course is being offered any time soon. It's REALLY good information.<br />

Historically our IBM i Developers have done their own &quot;Database Administration&quot;. &nbsp; We recently got a new manager for our IBM i Development team and they are requesting that our System Administrators take over DB2 administration for the platform - to make sure that things are done properly.<br />

Does anyone know of any training opportunities that exist that our System Administrators could utilize to get them up to speed on what they will need to do to get started with taking on this additional duties?<br />

I appreciate any assistance you can provide...

IBM DB2 is a family of relational database server products developed by IBM that have been extended to support object-relational features and non-relational structures like JSON and XML. There are three main products in the DB2 family: DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (informally known as DB2 LUW), DB2 for z/OS (mainframe), and DB2 for i (formerly OS/400), plus a version for IBM's Virtual Storage Extended (VSE) operating system.
