DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC70423 Status: Closed

DB2ICRT AND DB2IDROP HANG WHEN EXECUTING DB2ISRV

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
db2icrt/db2idrop appears to hang when executing db2isrv. You 
will notice a high CPU usage caused by the db2isrv process. 
Eventually the db2icrt/db2idrop commands will exit and display 
an error message similar to this: 
"Failed to remove "DB2_db2instance1" from the services file. 
Return code is "-1879047690"." 
 
This symptom is caused by wrong order or missing ports from 
/etc/services. 
 
For example, the line "DB2_db2instance1          5914/tcp" will 
trigger the behavior described above: 
    DB2_db2instance1_1      60001/tcp 
    DB2_db2instance1_2      60002/tcp 
    DB2_db2instance1_END  60003/tcp 
    DB2_db2instance1          5914/tcp 
 
In the following example a missing port, DB2_db2instance2, is 
causing the behavior: 
    DB2_db2instance2_1      60045/tcp 
    DB2_db2instance2_2      60046/tcp 
    DB2_db2instance2_END  60047/tcp
