DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2

Currently, a single monitoring event will be written to a new 
file if it does not fit in the current .evt file based on 
MAXFILESIZE.  However, the new file will be as large as needed 
to record the entire single event in one file.  This can result 
in a very large event file. 
 
The fix for this APAR provides an option to force an event 
record to fit into the target event file, up to the size defined 
by the MAXFILESIZE setting specified while creating the event 
monitor, by truncating the event record if necessary. So, for 
example, if a deadlock event dumps out a very large listing of 
locks, this information will be truncated to MAXFILESIZE.  The 
registry setting can be turned on and off by: 
 
db2set DB2_SYSTEM_MONITOR_SETTINGS=ENFORCE_MAX_FILE_SIZE:TRUE 
db2set DB2_SYSTEM_MONITOR_SETTINGS=ENFORCE_MAX_FILE_SIZE:FALSE 
 
db2stop 
db2start 
 
The default behavior will continue to be writing the entire 
event record into a single file without any truncation of data, 
thus allowing the size of the target .evt file to grow beyond 
the MAXFILESIZE setting.
