For DB2/UDB and DB2 z/OS you can also run utility control statements (such as Runstats, Load etc). These are not "normal" statements so cannot be run through a normal SQL interface; instead AQT will create an instance of the DB2 Command-Line Processor (CLP) and pass the utility control statements to it.
You can run statements in two ways:
(db2)runstats on table db2admin.department and indexes all shrlevel change
In order to connect to a database through the DB2 CLP, AQT will need to specify the userid and password in the connection script.
This is a minor security risk. Consequently you can not run a DB2 Command if you specify Options > User Rights > Disable Save Password. When this option is specified, AQT adopts a higher security model, which will not allow this risk.
If you try to do so you will get message For security reasons, this function can not be used. See Disable Save Password for more on this.
This can be done by prefixing the command with (db2), as discussed earlier.
