DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

A deadlock may occur when running multiple SQL PL compiled 
compound statements or PL/SQL anonymous blocks concurrently. 
 
For example, 
PL/SQL anonymous block: 
begin 
  StoredPreocedure(1); 
end; 
/ 
 
SQL/PL anonymous block: 
begin 
  call StoredPreocedure(1); 
end

Since the issue is timing dependent, the affected statement may 
succeed if you run it again. 
 
There are other workarounds which will avoid the deadlock: 
 
If the anonymous block or compound statement contains a single 
call and no other statements, you can use a CALL statement 
instead.  For example, instead of 
 
begin 
  StoredPreocedure(1); 
end; 
/ 
 
you could run the call directly: 
 
call StoredPreocedure(1); 
 
In the case where the anonymous block contains additional 
statements,  converting the anonymous block to an SQL procedure, 
then calling the procedure will avoid the deadlock scenario.
