DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2

Using db2top collector mode (-C) stops with error if output file 
exceeds 2GB size. 
 
Following is an example of the command line output of the db2top 
utility: 
 
db2top -d sample -C -i 30 -m 120 
[13:23:11] Starting DB2 snapshot data collector, collection 
every 30 second(s), max duration 120 minute(s), max file 
growth/hour 500.0G, hit <CTRL+C> to cancel...

[14:15:47] 16777215.9T written, time 3156.310, 16777215.9T/hour 
Warning: The current snapshot collection was skipped, because: 
The estimated file growth/hour, 2305873.2T , is greater than the 
max file growth/hour: 500.0G 
Therefore, the collected file, 'db2snap-sample-Linux64.bin' , 
may not be usable. Here are some recommendations: 
1) Increase the max file growth/hour by specifying 'streamsize' 
parameter in .db2toprc to at least: streamsize=2305873.2T 
2) Or increase the snapshot collection interval time by 
specifying option: -i
