DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC67352 Status: Closed

MEMORY LEAK IN DB2 WHEN CALLING UNFENCED CLI ROUTINES

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 980 - DB2
Problem description:
A small amount of memory is leaked in the DB2 server process on 
each call to a trusted/unfenced CLI routine. 
This leak can build over time and may cause memory 
overcommitment on a system, potentially resulting in 
performance degradation and eventually memory exhaustion. 
. 
For example, the problem was found in this case when running a 
large number of xml decomposition which 
invokes this trusted/unfenced CLI routine causing  the memory to 
increase on the system and eventually 
memory exhaustion.
