RE: Force Statistics Collection DB2/400?

!!! I went around and around with a software vendor a few years back--
they insisted that I contact my "database administrator" and
"reorganize/optimize" the database to optimize performance and eliminate
a problem we were having.

This was a Java-based application using DB2/400 to store its data. They
insisted we needed to reorganize the database to optimize the trees
because You Just Have To Do These Things With Any Database!

It was almost impossible to convince them (they didn't believe) that we
didn't need to those things; that the operating system took care of such
things -automatically-!

The only thing that comes close to what a traditional database
administrator does (imho) is to use the iSeries Navigator and see if the
Index Advisor recommends any new indices for your files.
