CONNECTION SLOWNESS/HANG DUE TO MORE LATCH WAIT AT GROUP AUTHENTICATION STEP. | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / B50 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
New connections experience slowness or hang waiting on operating system's group authentication. Many EDU stacks will look like: pthread_mutex_lock sqloxltc_app sqloGetGroupAttribById secGetGroups osplugin_get_groups get_groups_external getgroupsforuser sqlexGetGroupsForUser This APAR increases parallelism of group lookup calls made by DB2. It may alleviate or provide relief for slow group lookup caused by underlying authentication mechanism outside of DB2 such as operating system, LDAP server, etc... | |
