Problem IT09810 | Status: Closed |
SAPTOOLS.EXEC_CLP() ROUTINE MIGHT LEAVE A DEFUNCT PROCESS BEHIND | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A50 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
The 'SAPTOOLS.EXEC_CLP()' routine might leave a defunct process behind after it is invoked. The parent of the defunct process will be a 'db2fmp' process. The reason is that the routine does not 'wait' for the child process to complete before leaving. A simple 'ps -edf' command would show the defunct processes with the ppid as the db2fmp process. The 'db2pd -fmpexechistory' command can display the routineid for the parent db2fmp process. Querying the SYSCAT.ROUTINES system catalog table for that routineid will show if that db2fmp process was executing SAPTOOLS.EXEC_CLP. | |
