DB2 - Problem description

Problem IT03382 Status: Closed

'DB2IDROP' COMMAND REMOVES NON-DB2 MANAGED RSCT CLUSTER

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
When 'db2idrop' command is performed, it invokes 'db2haicu 
-delete' command as long as the 'db2haicu' utility is found. 
If there is non-DB2 managed RSCT cluster existing in the system, 
it will be removed by the 'db2haicu -delete' command. This might 
be unexpected result to some High Availability utility such as 
HACMP which also manages clusters.

Local Fix:
Backup up the original 'db2iutil' script, then edit it and 
comment out the lines that call 'db2haicu -delete' command. 
Here is an example of how 'db2haicu -delete' command is invoked 
in 'db2iutil' script: 
=========================================== 
drop_instance () 
{ 
 
    # Check that the specified user is a valid instance name and 
    # has an sqllib/bin directory in its home directory. 
    if [ ${DB2INSTVER?} != ${DB2VER_UNKNOWN?} ]; then 
        if [ -d ${INSTHOME?}/sqllib/bin ]; then 
 
            # Clean up HA resources 
            if [ -f  ${INSTHOME?}/sqllib/bin/db2haicu ]; then 
                ${DB2DIR?}/instance/db2iexec -n ${INSTNAME?} 
"${INSTHOME?}/sqllib/bin/db2haicu -delete" 1>/dev/null 
2>/dev/null 
            fi 
===========================================
