What is REORG? When is it used?

Answer Posted / thiru

Yes What Vamsi said is right. But not only it will re-
organise or re arrange the occupied and un occupied space
of the perticular table. By default when we add a new
column to the existing table db2 V9 onwards the REORG is
compulsary. otherwise from any application the table will
not be accessed.
while doing the REORG after New column addition or Bulk
Insert/Load it will rearrange the data internally based on
the indexes available from the table. hence further search
as well as other operations will be faster.
