Problem description: | |
DB2 instance on solaris can become inaccessible and enter a hung state. After a period of activity a DB2 instance became inaccessible and entrered a hung state. Looking at the DB2 threads they can been seen to be on async I/O requests. However the Solaris async I/O worker threads all appear to be idle and waiting on requests. This can be due to a solaris defect 6972029 close(-1) cancels all aio for all open file descriptors. | |
