Informix - Problem description

Problem IT34191 Status: Closed

LOG RECOVERY CAN HANG WHEN SKIPPING LOG RECORDS OLDER THAN THE DBSPACE
BEING RECOVERED

product:
INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / E10 - 
Problem description:
HDR or RSS secondary servers can hang soon after newly being
instantiated, with all active wreplay_# threads hung in
recvr_txatt() function, if dbspaces got restored from backups
newer than related log records being recovered (or actually
skipped).

Typical picture would be:

onstat -g laq showing some of the wreplay threads with non-zero
Queue Size and picture not changing over time,
e.g.
