In the earlier versions of DB2, whenever an object was altered or dropped, an exclusive lock was applied to ensure that no user accessed the object. This locking resulted in lock-waits or the rolling back of the transaction because of the deadlocks.
We need the SYSADM authority to modify the values for DB2 registry variables.
To enable or disable soft invalidation at the instance level, use the DB2 registry variable, DB2_DDL_SOFT_INVAL.
DB2_DDL_SOFT_INVAL registry variable to ON.db2set DB2_DDL_SOFT_INVAL=ON
