Hello Guru's

Can any one explain me the differnece between DB2 8.1 Z/OS New Function Mode and DB2 8.1 Z/OS Compatibility Mode ?

I am looking for some functional differences between two versions

Hi,

These are the Major Points, i think
Compatibility Mode - Members of the compatibility mode can co-exist with the previous version. New Version Functions are not available. Can fallback to previous version.

New-Function Mode - Members cannot co-exist with previous version. New version functions are available & Cannot Fallback to previous version.
