DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2

When loading LOB/XML data in a non-DPF environment, if LOB/XML 
data resides in separate files (i.e. LOB/XML data is indicated 
by LLS/XDS in data file) and the LOBS/XML FROM parameter is not 
specified (for LOB data, the lobsinfile file type modifier is 
specified), Load might change the current working directory 
(CWD) of db2sysc to the directory where Load is executed. And 
this only applies if the client and server are on the same 
machine. 
 
In the case, it might have some unexpected effects, e.g. you 
might not be able to unmount the file system where Load is 
executed. 
 
The following is an example: 
 
----- example.sh start from here ---------- 
db2start 
DB2SYSCPID=`ps -ef | grep db2sysc | grep $USER |   grep -v grep 
| awk '{print $2}'` 
echo "Time 1:" 
ls -alR /proc/$DB2SYSCPID/cwd 
 
db2 create db test 
db2 connect to test 
db2 "create table tab1 (col1 int, col2 blob)" 
 
echo "Time 2:" 
ls -alR /proc/$DB2SYSCPID/cwd 
 
db2 "load from tab1.ixf of ixf insert into db2inst1.tab1" 
 
echo "Time 3:" 
ls -alR /proc/$DB2SYSCPID/cwd 
----- example.sh end to here ---------- 
 
When a user runs the above example.sh, at Time 1 and Time 2, the 
CWD of db2sysc is '/'. But at Time 3, it is 
"/home/db2inst1/work" where the load is executed. This prevents 
unmounting the file system where "/home/db2inst1/work" is.
