| Problem description: | |
Sometimes you will find below errors in db2diag.log related to
log file retrieving
while an online backup (with default action to include logs) is
in progress.
At this time, a message stating backup was successful will also
be returned to your prompt :

Search for ossError*Analysis probe point after this log entry
for further
self-diagnosis of this problem.
After the backup, these log files which received the "file
sharing violation" errors,
may be left in the active log path for indefinte time until a
database recycle is done or
they are deleted manually.
Analysis :
This issue occurs due to multipe retrieval requests. As you can
see below, the first
time a log file retrival is completed successfully, but when DB2
tries to retrieve the logs
for the second time it fails :

The problem is the multiple requests for logs retrieval that
have
already been included in the backup image. Same is the cause
behind the
file sharing violation which then leads to already archived logs
being
left behind in the active log path as they are not deleted due
to the violation.
The fix will remove these extra retrieve requests. | |
