DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2

db2fmp processes may be forced or terminated as part of normal 
processing.  Due to a timing condition, they may miss the 
request and end up lingering on the system as "unstable" db2fmp 
processes.  Over time the number of such processes may build, 
consuming excessive system memory, and affect the performance of 
the system and/or deplete paging space.

Leftover unstable db2fmp processes can be identified by running 
"db2pd -fmp", and finding processes with a value of 0x00000830 
for "Flags".  They can be terminated using the db2fmpterm 
command. 
 
For example, in the following output, process 33882316 has a 
Flags value of 0x00000830, and can be terminated by issuing 
"db2fmpterm 33882316"
