DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC91440 Status: Closed

NEGATIVE NUMBER IS RETURNED FOR PROCESSING TIME OR WAIT TIME COUNTER FROM
MON_GET TABLE FUNCTION

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
On highly OLTP environments it is possible for a counter for the 
number of processing times or wait times to become negative. 
 
For example, the following query could return a negative value 
on highly OLTP environments: 
 
db2 "select TOTAL_APP_SECTION_EXECUTIONS from 
table(mon_get_workload(NULL,-1)) as T where workload_name like 
'%USER%' " 
 
TOTAL_APP_SECTION_EXECUTIONS 
---------------------------- 
                 -7058505513 
 
This can occur with the following table functions: 
MON_GET_CONNECTION 
MON_GET_PKG_CACHE_STMT 
MON_GET_SERVICE_SUBCLASS 
MON_GET_UNIT_OF_WORK 
MON_GET_WORKLOAD 
 
 
When the counter is returned by a table function that returns an 
XML document, the counter is defined to be a 
"xs:nonNegativeInteger".  In this case the value can become a 
massive value rather than a negative value.   For example, the 
IPC_RECVS_TOTAL counter reported by MON_GET_CONNECTION_DETAILS 
is "18446744072615334103". 
 
This can occur with the following table functions: 
MON_GET_ACTIVITY_DETAILS 
MON_GET_CONNECTION_DETAILS 
MON_GET_PKG_CACHE_STMT_DETAILS 
MON_GET_SERVICE_SUBCLASS_DETAILS 
MON_GET_UNIT_OF_WORK_DETAILS 
MON_GET_WORKLOAD_DETAILS 
 
 
The following counters are susceptible to this issue: 
 
agent_waits_total 
audit_file_writes_total 
audit_subsystem_waits_total 
comm_exit_waits 
diaglog_writes_total 
direct_read_reqs
