Problem IC64654 Status: Closed

DROP DATABASE PROCESSING INSTALLS SIGCHILD SIGNAL HANDLER, WHICH MAY LEAD
TO DEFUNCT PROCESSES

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
Drop database processing on AIX will invoke slibclean from 
within the server code. When doing so, a sigchild signal handler 
is installed. In the Threaded db2 server ( v9.5 and above ), 
this is not allowed as it can lead to defunct processes being 
created.
