Problem description: | |
The LASTUSED daemon, db2lused process, that is used to update the LASTUSED field in certain system catalogs, such as syscat.tables, may shut down unexpectedly when a database is quiesced (either by QUIESCE DATABASE or QUIESCE INSTANCE) and then unquisced. The user would notice that the process is no longer around in the db2pd -edus output even though the database is active. The following error would be noticed in the diag: 2012-05-02-19.28.12.640875-240 I10151E594 LEVEL: Error PID : 5262 TID : 46912954689856PROC : db2sysc INSTANCE: db2inst1 NODE : 000 DB : SAMPLE APPHDL : 0-34 APPID: *LOCAL.DB2.120502232733 AUTHID : db2inst1 EDUID : 49 EDUNAME: db2lused (SAMPLE) FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, database monitor, sqmLastUsedDaemon::main, probe:20 RETCODE : ZRC=0x870F00B9=-2029059911=SQLO_SEM_TIMEOUT "Return code from sqlowait when time out value has been reached" DATA #1 : String, 31 bytes Last Used Daemon Shutting Down. eg. db2 quiesce db immediate followed by an db2 unquiesce db As the LASTUSED daemon wakes up every 15 mins to gather usage information, you may notice the problem approximately 15 mins after the database has been unquiesced and is active. db2pd -edus | grep lused command would show no db2lused process in the list. | |
