DB2 INSTANCE ON SOLARIS CAN BECOME INACCESSIBLE AND ENTER A HUNG STATE.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 980 - DB2
Problem description:
DB2 instance on solaris can become inaccessible and 
enter a hung state. 
 
After a period of activity a DB2 instance became inaccessible 
and entrered a hung state. 
 
 
Looking at the DB2 threads they can been seen to be on async I/O 
requests.  However the Solaris async I/O worker threads all 
appear to be idle and waiting on requests. 
 
 
This can be due to a solaris defect 6972029 close(-1) cancels 
all aio for all open file descriptors.
Problem Summary:
DB2 instance on solaris can become inaccessible and 
enter a hung state.
Local Fix:
Disable ASYNC IO 
db2set DB2LIOAIODISABLED=true 
then db2stop & db2start instance.
Solution
First Fixed in v9.8FP3
