DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC65075 Status: Closed

HITTING INSTANCE MEMORY LIMIT SHOULD NOT BRING DOWN THE DATABASE

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2
Problem description:
Instance Memory limits are not intended to be enforced where 
enforcing the limit would result in bringing down the database 
i.e. "database marked bad".  However, currently, Instance Memory 
allocation failures in the deadlock detector and global deadlock 
detector will have this effect. 
Connections will be forced off, and the database will be 
recycled requiring crash recovery. 
 
This APAR will allow allocations from these EDUs to exceed the 
Instance Memory limit.  Note that memory allocation failures due 
to other reasons (eg. Operating System limits) will still cause 
the database to be recycled.
