Problem description: | |
In rare situations, the Load utility in a DPF environment may hang or exhibit unknown behaviour when the utility encounters an error. More specifically, the Load coordinating agent process 'db2agent' will successfully interrupt subagents on all partitions, but the coordinating agent may hang indefinitely or exhibit unknown behaviour. Symptoms of such a situation include db2diag.log entries showing Load subagents and EDUs on all nodes being interrupted and failing ungracefully, however after this the Load may not return back to the client. A db2pd -stack may show the Load coordinating agent process 'db2agent' have a callstack that contains 'iWorkDuringFinalSyncUp'. Forcing the application may not effectively interrupt this agent and an instance recycle may be required. | |
