DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC87593 Status: Closed

DATABASE RESTORE COULD FAIL IN PURESCALE IF STORAGE PATH MOUNTS ARE NESTED
ON NON-GPFS FILE SYSTEMS

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
In a scenario where GPFS file systems have been mounted on a 
sub-path of a storage path a database restore could fail during 
attempts to create mount resources because the storage path 
appears to be on a non-GPFS path.  It is acceptable and 
supported to have a storage path point to a non-GPFS file system 
as long as the expanded form of the storage path 
(/<storage_path>/<instance>/NODE####) is a GPFS mount point. 
Database level restore does not recognize this configuration and 
fails to add proper resource mounts causing the restore to fail.

Local Fix:
Do not use nested mount points.  If nested mount points are used 
do so at the base storage path level and not on the expanded 
form.
