DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC63258 Status: Closed

"MEMEORY VISUALIZER" DOES NOT DISPLAY "DATABASE GLOBAL
MEMORY" FOR ALL DATABASES.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2
Problem description:
"Memeory Visualizer" does NOT display "Database Global Memory" 
for all databases. 
 
Here is an example of how to reproduce it. 
-- 1. Create a DB2 instance named "db2inst1". 
-- 2. Create 3 local databases under the instance "db2inst1": 
sample1 
sample2 
sample3 
-- 3. Start up the instance "db2inst1" by "db2start" command. 
-- 4. Connect to the 3 databases respectively in 3 DB2 CLP 
windows: 
db2 connect to sample1 
db2 connect to sample2 
db2 connect to sample3 
-- 5. Issue "db2 list active databases" and make sure all the 3 
databases are active. 
-- 6. Launch DB2 "Memory Visualizer". 
-- 7. Select the instance "db2inst1" when Memory Visualizer 
prompts you to select an instance. 
-- 8. In Memory Visualizer, expand the cascading menu "Database 
Global Memory". 
Then you will only see the database "sample3", although all the 
3 databases are active. 
Even if you clicked on the "Refresh", nothing would change. 
 
The fix of this problem will make "Memeory Visualizer" display 
"Database Global Memory" for all databases.
