DDLS ON NICKNAME CAUSE DEADLOCK | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
When you rollback a transaction including DDLs on nickname, Federation Server will try to flush catalog cache about that nickname. This flushing wrongly requests lock of FEDServerNm in X mode. This behavior could cause deadlock and the deadlock can not be automatically resovled by DB2 because the transaction is doing rollback. The lock request can also happen when the DDL on nickname is automatically rollbacked because of error. When nnstat is running with method 1, Federation Server will create or drop nickname with name ending with "_DB2II". If error happens when nnstat create or drop nickname, it will request that lock too and possibly cause deadlock. When deadlock happens, you can see below error message reported in db2diag.log: 2011-12-26-02.44.33.229005-300 I2314012968E474 LEVEL: Error PID : 11676 TID : 47258607282496PROC : db2sysc 1 INSTANCE: nyqxt160 NODE : 001 DB : ATHENA EDUID : 115 EDUNAME: db2dlock (ATHENA) 1 FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, lock manager, sqlpKillIfWaiting, probe:670 DATA #1 : <preformatted> Cannot kill deadlock victim (with DLpriority 50 tidhdl 123 tentryState 4 holder_hdl 34) because it is doing rollback or commit.

Local Fix: | |
Below operations can significantly reduce the chance of hitting this deadlock: 1) Check and turn off the health indicators for Federation: db.fed_servers_op_status db.fed_nicknames_op_status To turn off the two health indicators, using below SQL statements: UPDATE ALERT CONFIGURATION FOR DATABASE ON FEDDB USING db.fed_servers_op_status SET THRESHOLDSCHECKED NO UPDATE ALERT CONFIGURATION FOR DATABASE ON FEDDB USING db.fed_nicknames_op_status SET THRESHOLDSCHECKED NO 2) Turn off the auto_runstats database configuration parameter by issuing below SQL statement: UPDATE DB CFG FOR FEDDB USING AUTO_RUNSTATS OFF 3) Execute reverse federated DDL instead of rollback federated DDL | |
