While playing with the new release, IBM i 7.6, I noticed that the default for the SELF, SQL Error Logging Facility, SELFCODES global variable has changed.
When it first came out, IBM i 7.5 TR1 and 7.4 TR7, the default for the SELFCODES was null.
With IBM i 7.6 and 7.5 TR6 the default is '*NONE'.
Why the difference?
Both null and '*NONE' are acceptable as the default. The difference is that '*NONE' will stop SELF monitoring immediately. Null does not, only when new SQL 'jobs' start.
CREATE OR REPLACE VARIABLE SYSIBMADM.SELFCODES VARCHAR(256) DEFAULT '*NONE' ; |
This is another good enhancement to SELF.
