For Friday’s DB2’s Got Talent, I presented on the new method for deadlock and lock timeout analysis available in DB2 9.7. I’ve blogged on this in the past, so there are several entries you should go read for further details:
Analyzing Deadocks – the old way Gives a detailed look at deadlock analysis before 9.7 – a method that still works in 9.7. This was mentioned in the DB2’s Got Talent presentation, but was not covered in detail
Analyzing Deadocks – the new way Covers some of the same material as the DB2’s Got Talent presentation. It is a step-by-step instruction set for implementing this method and includes even more SQL for analyzing the output.
Fun With 9.7 Locktimout Analysis Covers a real-world investigation into lock timeouts using the new method, and goes into greater detail than I had time for in the DB2’s Got talent presentation. It includes specific SQL and my thought process while analyzing a situation.
I’ve also run into an issue with online reorgs on unformatted event monitor tables. I’ve got a PMR open. I’m updating what I find here: Issue with Online Reorg on Unformatted Event Tables
