Problem IC70696 | Status: Closed |
BACKWARD PHASE OF ROLLFORWARD RECOVERY CAN BE VERY SLOW | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
During the backward stage of rollforward recovery - after either a system crash or during rollforward after a restore then DB2 can repeatedly request the same two log files alternately. This leads to the rollforward being extremely slow. In the db2diag.log the repeated requests for the same logs are recorded , eg : $ grep retrieve db2diag.log db2diag.log:MESSAGE : Started retrieve for log file S0000008.LOG. db2diag.log:MESSAGE : Completed retrieve for log file S0000008.LOG on chain 0 to db2diag.log:MESSAGE : Started retrieve for log file S0000009.LOG. db2diag.log:MESSAGE : Completed retrieve for log file S0000009.LOG on chain 0 to db2diag.log:MESSAGE : Started retrieve for log file S0000008.LOG. db2diag.log:MESSAGE : Completed retrieve for log file S0000008.LOG on chain 0 to etc The db2pd -recovery option will also show very slow bytes/second in backward phase of rollforward recovery. The problem is not platform specific. The occurrence of the problem is chance dependent on whether a data buffer crosses two logfiles. The problem exists in the 9.5 and 9.7 codestreams. | |
