Problem description: | |
A problem was introduced in DPF (multiple data partition) configurations in DB2 Version 9.7 Fix Pack 7 and Version 10.1 Fix Pack 2 where memory is leaked on every recompile of a query referencing XML data. Approximately 40K is leaked on each occurrence - the memory is allocated from the Database Heap memory pool inside the Database Memory set. Monitoring tools such as MON_GET_MEMORY_POOL, database snapshot, db2pd -alldbs -mempools will show the database heap continually growing in size. db2pd -alldbs -memblocks db 2 will show a growing number of blocks similar to : Address DataAddress PoolID PoolName BlkAge Size(Bytes) I LOC File 0x07000004B1C3ED68 0x07000004B1C3ED80 2 dbh 58235 2504 0 2228 1235116617 0x07000004B1B30A48 0x07000004B1B30A60 2 dbh 58233 2504 0 2228 1235116617 0x07000004B1B31428 0x07000004B1B31440 2 dbh 58229 2504 0 2228 1235116617 ... Note the Size, LOC values may differ slightly, but the File value will be consistent. It is also normal to have a buildup of allocations similar to this after database activation as tables are first accessed. | |
