product: | |
INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / E10 - | |
Problem description: | |
During heavy load on a PRIMARY, executing onmode -c block, or using the API on an associated RSS may fail to fully block leaving the RSS mreplay thread in "cond wait RESUME_app" and the onmode command does not return to the command prompt; the RSS server is then unable to be "unblocked" or "blocked" and no further replay of the logical logs is performed with the only recourse being to restart the RSS server. $ onstat -g ath | egrep -A 1 "^IBM|mreplay" IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 14.10.FC7DE -- Read-Only (RSS) -- Up 18:53:58 -- 589612 Kbytes 2021-11-05 09:31:41 -- 121 47c93808 45e91dd8 3 cond wait RESUME_app 10cpu mreplay 124 4b495418 45e92680 1 sleeping secs: 1 9cpu dbutil $ onstat -g stk 68 IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 14.10.FC7DE -- Read-Only (RSS) -- Up 00:31:56 -- 589612 Kbytes 2021-11-04 15:09:39 Stack for thread: 68 onmode_mon base: 0x0000000047608000 len: 69632 pc: 0x00000000014eb0eb tos: 0x0000000047618210 state: sleeping vp: 1 (oninit) yield_processor_mvp (oninit) do_ckptblock (oninit) bar_ebr_block (oninit) onmode_monitor (oninit) th_init_initgls (oninit) startup $ onstat -g stk 121 IBM Informix Dynamic Server Version 14.10.FC7DE -- Read-Only (RSS) -- Up 18:54:39 -- 589612 Kbytes 2021-11-05 09:32:22 Stack for thread: 121 mreplay base: 0x000000004b3e8000 len: 69632 pc: 0x00000000014eb0eb tos: 0x000000004b3f8cb0 state: cond wait vp: 10 (oninit) yield_processor_mvp (oninit) mt_wait (oninit) scan_logredo (oninit) next_lscan_thr (oninit) th_init_initgls (oninit) startup Note that this supersedes APAR IT38498 | |
