DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 980 - DB2

When DIAGPATH is set to split per node ( $n ) or per host per 
node ( $h$n ). the application process on CF box ( e.g. db2rocm, 
db2start/db2stop ) may have trouble getting default node number 
( 128 or 129 ), hence, errors may occur, such as db2rocm keeps 
on dumping error messages to db2diag.log, as below:

****************************************************************

Against db2start/db2stop error symptom, the following is valid 
as a temporary fix. 
  - add DB2NODE definition to ".profile" file on the instance 
account of the CF machine, then run it. 
    ( ex. add "export DB2NODE=128" statement in ".profile" of 
the instance acount on the CF machine. )
