This book consolidates an abunance of hints, tips and techniques learned by Mark and Tom from years of working with DB2 on Solaris. Since Mark Wilding is a key developer of DB2 on Solaris and Tom has been working in the field with customers using DB2 on Solaris, you could not ask for a better combination.
They both have been very helpful to me and I found their book enlightening. Also, it is a great training tool for our new people not familiar with Solaris and DB2.

No useful content at all
IMHO, this book contains no real content. There is no real tips or even useful best practices.The book is just a summary of other peoples works. The first 200 pages is nothing more than a summary of the Administration Guide, followed by summaries of Veritas and Sun clustering manuals with a closing on Adrian's Solaris Performance guide. You are better off grabbing the real books themselves. Not that summaries are bad if it was done with the intent of providing a useful reference followed up with comments on why certain things should or should not be done. The Author provided none of that. They offer no real insights on DB2 nor Solaris.
