Problem IC69550 | Status: Closed |
UPDATE DBM CFG COMMAND FAILS WITH SQL5126N FOR CLIENT NODE TYPE DUE TO FCM_NUM_BUFFERS SET TO A NON-ZERO VALUE | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
The database manager configuration parameter, FCM_NUM_BUFFERS, is not supported for CLIENT node type and should always have a value of 0. Starting in v9.5 FP4, the minimum for FCM_NUM_BUFFERS has been increased to 895. During major release upgrade and fix pack update, the value of FCM_NUM_BUFFERS needs to be verified and may be set to the new minimum if it's below 895. However, this special handling was not exempt from CLIENT node type, causing FCM_NUM_BUFFERS to be set to a value that's out of range for the CLIENT node type. This will result the following error for any update attempt to any database manager configuration parameters: db2 update dbm cfg using CATALOG_NOAUTH NO SQL5126N An attempt was made to modify the database manager configuration parameter "fcm_num_buffers" which is not valid for a node type of "2". | |
