Status: Closed |
DB2GCF MIGHT INCORRECTLY REPORT INSTANCE AS OPERABLE INSTEAD OF AVAILABLE WHEN USING VIRTUAL HOSTNAME IN DB2NODES.CFG |
| product: |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A50 - DB2 |
| Problem description: |
When using db2gcf to check the availability of an instance via
the following command:
db2gcf -s -i <instance>
it may report the DB2 instance as "Operable" instead of
"Available" if a virtual hostname is used in the db2nodes.cfg
file. Here is the output of the dbgcf command in this case:
$ db2gcf -s -i db2inst1
Instance : db2inst1
DB2 State : Operable
If DIAGLEVEL is set to 4, then the following db2diag.log message
will also be observed:
