DB2 - Problem description
Problem IC69414 | Status: Closed |
SOME DATA NOT COLLECTED BY DB2COS / DB2FODC SCRIPTS IN DB2 V9.5 ON SOME LINUX DISTRIBUTIONS DUE TO ARGUMENTS TO SORT | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
The collection of some data in the db2cos / db2fodc script may not work for all Linux distributions due to different requirements in handling arguments to "sort". The current scripts include a call to sort such as: sort +5 -rn That syntax will work on SUSE Linux; however, some distributions (such as Redhat) require the "-k" option to be included so that the syntax would instead be: sort -k +5 -rn The result of this is that some data may not be collected (such as ps output): $ cat pself.fullstack 11:33:02 up 1 day, 12:09, 6 users, load average: 128.84, 126.31, 119.53 sort: open failed: +5: No such file or directory | |
