Error description

  • DB2 on HP is unnecessarily padding shared library data regions.
    This is resulting in 1MB reserved paging space per loaded librar
    y per db2agent.  This APAR will remove the padding on all DB2 li
    braries except the most performance-critical, those being the ma
    in client and server libraries.
    

Local fix

  • add more paging space as necessary.
