Problem description: | |
Rollback of a deferred buffer pool alter causes an instance abend in sqlbUnChainUCAlter. This problem has been present for several releases, but due to the unusual sequence of steps needed to recreate the problem the issue has not been reported by an end customer yet (only discovered internally). For this reason the problem should be of low severity for most customers. Sample scenario: db2 "connect to sample" db2 "create bufferpool mybp size 1000 automatic" db2 "create tablespace ts2 bufferpool mybp" db2 "alter tablespace ts2 bufferpool ibmdefaultbp" db2 "drop bufferpool mybp" (should return SQL20225W) db2 +c "create bufferpool mybp size 1000 automatic" (should return SQL20169W) db2 +c "alter bufferpool mybp deferred size 740" db2 +c "rollback" SQL1224N The database manager is not able to accept new requests, has terminated all requests in progress, or has terminated the specified request because of an error or a forced interrupt. SQLSTATE=55032 The DB2 diagnostic log will contain SQLB_BUFF_NOT_STARTED warnings just prior to the abend: 2011-10-26-19.17.12.013863-240 E39174190A571 LEVEL: Warning PID : 26607784 TID : 21484 PROC : db2sysc 1 INSTANCE: db2inst1 NODE : 001 DB : SAMPLE APPHDL : 1-7868 APPID: *N1.db2inst1.111026231630 AUTHID : DB2INST1 EDUID : 21484 EDUNAME: db2agntp (SAMPLE) 1 FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, buffer pool services, sqlbAlterBufferPool, probe:80 MESSAGE : ZRC=0x8002014A=-2147352246=SQLB_BUFF_NOT_STARTED "Bufferpool not started" DATA #1 : String, 43 bytes (Informational) Warning, alter was deferred 2011-10-26-19.17.14.147063-240 I39174762A492 LEVEL: Warning PID : 26607784 TID : 39885 PROC : db2sysc 1 INSTANCE: db2inst1 NODE : 001 DB : SAMPLE APPHDL : 1-7868 APPID: *N1.db2inst1.111026231630 AUTHID : DB2INST1 EDUID : 39885 EDUNAME: db2agent (SAMPLE) 1 FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, RAS/PD component, pdEDUIsInDB2KernelOperation, probe:600 DATA #1 : String, 22 bytes sqlbUnChainUCAlter__F DATA #2 : String, 4 bytes sqlb The trap file will contain sqlbUnChainUCAlter on top of the call stack: EDU name : db2agent (SAMPLE) 1 Signal #11 GPR[03]: 0000000000000000 GPR[29]: 0000000000000000 >>>> 0x0900000007345540 : F87D0000 std r3,0(r29) Signal #11 (SIGSEGV): si_addr is 0x0000000000000000, si_code is 0x00000033 sqlbUnChainUCAlter undoAlterBufferPool sqlbUndo sqldmund sqlptudo sqlptud1 sqlpxrbk sqlrkrbk sqlrkrbk sqlrrbck_dps sqlrrbck sqlrr_rollback | |

Local Fix: | |
Avoid rolling back a deferred buffer pool alter. If possible, commit the ALTER BUFFERPOOL statement, then back out the alter as desired by issuing another ALTER BUFFERPOOL statement, reverting to the desired buffer pool values. The second ALTER BUFFERPOOL statement will be carried out by another transaction, and the abend will not happen. | |
