DB2 - Problem description

Problem IT27223 Status: Closed

SLOWNESS WHEN USING THE DB2DSDRIVER.CFG FROM NFS LOCATION

product:
DB2 CONNECT / DB2CONNCT / B10 - DB2
Problem description:
When ODBC and CLI application referring the db2dsdriver.cfg
located in the NFS file system and using the
DB2DSDRIVER_CFG_PATH to
           specify the location, application is witnessing the
slowness the application.
           This is witnessed when API SQLGetConnectAttrW  when
called with "SQL_ATTR_GET_LATEST_MEMBER_NAME ".
           This API call with SQL_ATTR_GET_LATEST_MEMBER_NAME
checks for the db2dsdriver.cfg exitance for its
	   each call.

	   In the system trace(strace) we will see trace like below:

	   lseek(11, 1608756, SEEK_SET)   = 1608756
           stat("/usr/sap/R50/SYS/global",
{st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0
           access("/usr/sap/R50/SYS/global/db2dsdriver.cfg",
F_OK) = 0
           open("/usr/sap/R50/SYS/global/db2dsdriver.cfg",
O_RDONLY) = 23
           close(23)                      = 0
