MEMORY LEAK CAN OCCUR WHILE RUNNING REORG ON A TABLE WITH A COMPRESSED XDA OBJECT | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
In DB2 v9.7 a small amount of memory from the database heap may be leaked during a REORG. For the leak to occur, the reorganized table must be compressed and must contain at least one XML column. Some of the XML documents must be stored in the XML storage object and be compressed. Symptoms of this memory leak include: - Continuous increase of memory usage both inside the DB2 process and on the system overall - Out-of-memory errors reported by the database manager - Side effects such as the inability to connect to DB2 databases - System memory or paging space exhaustion This memory is allocated from the database heap, and will be reported by DB2 memory monitoring tools (db2pd, db2mtrk, snapshot). | |
