DB2 - Problem description

Problem IT02338 Status: Closed

DDLS ON NICKNAME CAUSE DEADLOCK

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - 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

DATA #1 : <preformatted> 
Cannot kill deadlock victim (with DLpriority  50 tidhdl 123

From the db2pd output, lock contention on FEDServerNm can be 
seen as below:

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
