Many hierarchies are created in Maximo.  Asset, locations, classifications, item assembly structure, etc.  It is useful and efficient to be able to generate hierarchical queries in the database.

    Thank you for the request. There are no plans in the next 12-18 months to add official support for Oracle compatibility mode in DB2 to support hierarchical queries. If this is something the customer would like to work with the SRE team understanding that it is not officially supported.
