The correct answer is "C. Minimize contention due to ascending key or descending key inserts, especially in a pureScale environment " DB2® Version 10.5 adds a type of random ordering for index key columns. Random ordering on index columns helps to alleviate page contention on frequently accessed pages in certain insert scenarios. This new function focuses specifically on index leaf pages that are accessed frequently in a DB2 pureScale® environment.
