DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC71320 Status: Closed

USING THE DB2CFIMP TO IMPORT CONNECTIVITY CONFIGURATION PARAMETE RS CAUSES
AUTOMATIC VALUES TO BE RESET TO MINIMUM VALUES.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 910 - DB2
Problem description:
When the db2cfexp is used to export connectivity configuration 
information to an export profile, automatic value are exported 
as "AUTOMATIC" in dbm.cfg file. 
However when these are imported using the "db2cfimp" command, 
the values which were exported as "AUTOMATIC" are imported with 
minimum value possible. 
 
Test case  : 
 
------------------------ 
 
db2 reset dbm cfg 
 
 
 
db2 get dbm cfg(Before exporting) : 
==> 
 
 Agent pool size                        (NUM_POOLAGENTS) = 
AUTOMATIC(100) 
 Initial number of agents in pool       (NUM_INITAGENTS) = 0 
 
 Max number of coordinating agents     (MAX_COORDAGENTS) = 
AUTOMATIC(200) 
 Max number of client connections      (MAX_CONNECTIONS) = 
AUTOMATIC(MAX_COORDAGENTS) 
 
db2cfexp dbm.cfg backup 
 
db2start 
 
db2cfimp dbm.cfg(After importing) : 
 
==> automatic parameters have been changed 
 
 
 
Size of instance shared memory (4KB)  (INSTANCE_MEMORY) = 
AUTOMATIC(1) 
 
Priority of agents                           (AGENTPRI) = SYSTEM 
Agent pool size                        (NUM_POOLAGENTS) = 
AUTOMATIC(0) 
Initial number of agents in pool       (NUM_INITAGENTS) = 0 
 
Max number of coordinating agents     (MAX_COORDAGENTS) = 
AUTOMATIC(0) 
Max number of client connections      (MAX_CONNECTIONS) = 
AUTOMATIC(1) 
 
After this if you try : 
 
db2stop 
 
db2start 
 
 
db2 connect to dbname ==> will result in hang.

Local Fix:
Avoid using "AUTOMATIC" as a value in such cases. 
or 
Change the dbm CFG manually after they are imported.
