DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC87438 Status: Closed

OPM pureScale monitoring command timeouts due to locked resources by GPFS.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
Various DB2 pureScale monitoring functions are defined to OPM. 
For example, DB2_GET_CLUSTER_HOST_STATE, which retrieves 
information about the cluster hosts (alerts, active/inactive) is 
defined to OPM. 
 
When it is exercised, db2 forces a gpfs information refresh on 
all nodes (mmchnode -N all --gpfs_version=Default). 
Since OPM's view of the world is in terms of the databases and 
not the cluster, OPM can issue multiple 
requests to DB2_GET_CLUSTER_HOST_STATE for many databases 
concurrently. This can result in GPFS locking of cluster 
resources such as the cluster configuration, ultimately leading 
to possible monitor command timeouts.
