Solution
First fixed in DB2 version 10.1 Fix Pack 3. 
Starting from this version isolation level used by db2support 
tool can be specified via "-il" switch, which previously was 
applicable only to optimizer mode ("-st", "-sf"). 
In order to avoid locking, db2support can be collected with 
uncommitted read (UR) isolation level, e.g. 
$ db2support . -d <db_name> -il UR
