STMM LOCKLIST TUNING DECREASES FAIL REPETITIVELY ATTEMPTING TO REDUCE LOCKLIST SIZE MORE THAN WHAT CAN BE FREED | |
| product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
| Problem description: | |
The STMM tuner may log frequent messages to the STMM log files
about failing to decrease the Locklist. This is because the
calculation is based on locklist "in use", with the assumption
that remaining locklist "not in use" can be freed. However,
some of the "not in use" locklist may be spread around on
partially-used larger units of memory managed within the
locklist, and those areas cannot be freed. The STMM tuner needs
to determine how many larger units of memory are completely free
in order to correctly determine the maximum possible reduction
in locklist size.
STMM log messages about locklist decrease tuning failures appear
similar to :
EDUID : 99999 EDUNAME: db2stmm (SAMPLE) 0
FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, Self tuning memory manager,
stmmUpdateDBConfig, probe:290
MESSAGE : ZRC=0x82AE00A6=-2102525786=STMM_DYNAMIC_UPDATE_FAILED
"STMM dynamic update failed"
DATA #1 : String, 78 bytes
Dynamic update failed for parameter Locklist. Attempted update
value is 100000
Note that isolated appearances of these messsages may still be
normal due to timing. Even when repetitive messages occur, the
impact on STMM tuning overall is minimal. | |
