Informix - Problem description

Problem IT40516 Status: Closed

SWITCHING FROM SECONDARY TO PRIMARY ROLE CAN HANG IN 'COND WAIT
DRCB_COND'

product:
INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / E10 - 
Problem description:
Switching an HDR secondary to primary mode can hang, with only
this much in message log:

04/05/22 13:23:35  Skipping failover callback.
04/05/22 13:23:35  Make Primary state 10 failrecvr 0 type 3

The onmode -d command initating this transition also might not
return to the prompt.

The onmode_mon thread would be seen in state 'cond wait
drcb_cond' and in following stack:

  yield_processor_mvp
  mt_wait
  dr_start_lgr_shutdown
  dr_lgr_end
  dr_finish_recovery
  cloneOnmodeMakePrimary
  onmode_monitor
  th_init_initgls
  startup

while the mreplay thread, the one the above stack is waiting on,
would permanently be seen in state 'sleeping secs: 1'.

A very similar hang might occur with other transitions, e.g.
from RSS to standard mode.
