DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2

If lock timeout capturing is being done (db2set 
DB2_CAPTURE_LOCKTIMEOUT=YES) and lock timeout issues occur, DB2 
generates lock timeout reports in diagnostics path defined by 
DIAGPATH dbm cfg parameter which have the following format: 
 
db2locktimeout.par.AGENTID.yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss, where 
 
par is the database partition number. In non-partitioned 
database environments, par is set to 0. 
AGENTID is the agent ID. 
yyyy-mm-dd-hh-mm-ss is the time stamp, consisting of the year, 
month, day, hour, minute, and second. 
 
However, when diagnostics path is split per hostname and/or 
hostname/nodename on DPF environments, then lock timeout reports 
stop being generated thus no lock timeout information is logged. 
 
EX: 
 
db2 update dbm cfg using DIAGPATH '"<path> $h"' 
 
or 
 
db2 update dbm cfg using DIAGPATH '"<path> $h$n"' 
 
 
When lock timeout occurs, and db2 can not write to lock timeout 
report file due to having $h or $h$n in DIAGPATH value, the 
following error is logged in  db2diag.log:

With this APAR fix, the lock timeout reports will be generated 
and logged.

* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *

* As a temporary wokaround, stop using split diagpath.         * 
****************************************************************

As a temporary workaround before the fix for this APAR is 
applied, stop using splitting the diag path perf hostname or 
hostname/nodename.
