DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

In a Federated environment that utilizes two-phase commits, the 
instance can hang with a LOCK snapshot waiting on a tranEntry 
latch. The lock snapshot's callstack looks like this: 
sqlpm_write_appl_locks 
sqm_snap_appl_locks 
sqm_snap_db_locks 
sqlmonssagnt 
sqlmonssbackend 
sqlesrvr 
 
The lock snapshot is waiting for the tranEntry latch and holding 
the dblatch, m_appServLatch and masterAppLatch. 
 
At the same time a federated server has been defined to use 
two-phase commit and a federated agent is attempting to 
establish an XA transaction by calling sqlqg_FMP_FedStart. The 
agent's stack looks like this: 
msgrcv 
sqlorqueInternal 
sqlorque2 
sqloTQMRequestMLN 
sqlccipcconnr 
sqlccconnr 
sqljcCommConnect 
sqljcCmnMgrInit 
sqljrCreateTransport 
sqljrAssociateTransport 
sqljrInternalConnect 
sqljrFindBestAddressAndConnect

The Federated agent is holding the tranEntry latch when it calls 
sqlqgConnect to establish the XA connection and is waiting for 
an agent to be provided by the IPC connection manager. 
 
 
The IPC connection manager is hung waiting for the 
m_appServerLatch being held by the snapshot agent.

This hang can be avoided if the federated transaction does not 
require two phase commit. Two phase commit can be disabled as 
follows: 
 
alter server <server name> options (set DB2_TWO_PHASE_COMMIT 
'N')
