DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

In Windows a socket handle created by the WSASocket or the 
 
socket function is inheritable by default.  Similarly, sockets 
created on UNIX are not automatically marked "close-on-exec". 
This means that sockets created by an application will be 
inherited by child processes by default.  This behavior can lead 
to a variety of unexpected and undesirable behaviors when those 
sockets 
are related to DB2 database connections. 
 
When a DB2 application that is connected to a database starts a 
new 
child program, those database connections are not intended to be 
available 
to the child.  New programs should establish their own database 
connections 
if required. 
 
This fix prevents DB2 connection sockets from being inherited by 
new programs. 
Specifically, they will not be inherited across CreateProcess 
calls on Windows and 
they are marked "close-on-exec" on UNIX and Linux.
