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. | |

Local Fix: | |
Launch "Memory Visualizer" prior to activating the databases. Using the same example mentioned in "Problem Description", the steps will be: -- 1. Start up the instance "db2inst1" by "db2start" command. -- 2. Launch DB2 "Memory Visualizer". -- 3. Select the instance "db2inst1" when Memory Visualizer prompts you to select an instance. -- 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. In Memory Visualizer, expand the cascading menu "Database Global Memory". Then you will all the 3 databases. | |
