Problem IC64281 | Status: Closed |
CANCELLING AN IDLE CURSOR OPEN ON A FENCED UDF WHICH ISSUES SQL MAY RESULT IN ABNORMAL TERMINATION OF THE DB2 SERVER | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
If a cursor that is opened on a fenced UDF is cancelled (using the WLM_CANCEL_ACTIVITY stored procedure) while idle (that is, not actively processing an OPEN, FETCH or CLOSE request from the application), and the udf executes SQL upon receiving a CLOSE request, the DB2 server may terminate abnormally. Termination will occur if the next request issued by the application that opened the cursor (which was idle) is for any statement other than the cursor itself. For example, if the next request from the application is a fetch on the cursor, the server will not terminate. However, if the next request were an insert, the server would abnormally terminate. | |
Problem Summary: | |
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * Users who make use of fenced UDFs in their environment and * * who use the WLM_CANCEL_ACTIVITY stored procedure. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * An IDLE cursor opened against a fenced UDF is canceled using * * the WLM_CANCEL_ACTIVITY stored procedure. The next request * * issued by the application that opened the cursor causes the * * database server to abnormally terminate. * * * * An IDLE cursor is defined here as a cursor that is open on * * the database server, but is waiting for a client request * * (e.g. a fetch) to continue processing. The only cursors that * * may encounter this problem are those opened on fenced UDFs, * * where the fenced UDF performs one or more SQL statements * * when it receives a CLOSE request. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * * Upgrade to DB2 Version 9.7 Fix Pack 2. * **************************************************************** | |
