DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 980 - DB2

Running runstats at the time other DDL modifying statements are 
running will likely encounter lock timeouts or deadlocks. The 
investigation revealed that the lock contention are on object 
that are not related to the RUNSTATS. 
 
Applications running alter, drop or create table will timeout or 
wait until runstats completes giving the impression that they 
are hung. They will be waiting for locks held by the application 
running runstats on another table. 
 
The isolation level used to update columns fro runstats is RR 
and therefore it will lock rows in SYSCOLUMNS that are not 
related to the table being updated.
