DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC81712 Status: Closed

DB2PD -REPEAT OPTION CAN NOT HANDLE MORE THAN 65535 SECONDS.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
If you try to run "db2pd" every other day by using -repeat as: 
 
  $ db2pd -db sample -repeat 86400 5 -tcbstats index 
 
it wakes up 5 times a day, every 20865 seconds (about 6 hours) 
unexpectedly. There is an undocumented max size 65535 for 
-repeat option. If you specify 86400, it will wakes up every 
20865 seconds, 86400 - 65535 = 20865. 
 
The fix of APAR makes it can be handled almost forever.
