OS: ANY
DB: ANY
The database locks the tables for some maintenance procedure such as backup or rebuilding of indexes. This will prevent the dSeries from getting a lock and reading the tables. If the tables are not accessible then subscription and other functionalities will not work.
Most of the DB maintenance may not affect dSeries. In some rare cases there can be a conflict if the tables are locked by an external process. To prevent any issues, schedule the external maintenance during non-peak hours. It is recommended to not run long maintenance jobs that can lock tables and other database artifacts.
