IFCID 255 - Buffer Refresh Due to XI

This topic shows detailed information about Record Trace - IFCID 255 - Buffer Refresh Due to XI.

This record is written when a buffer refresh was caused by the cross invalidation (XI) of a data page in the group buffer pool. Cross invalidation occurs when a Db2 member of a data sharing group updates a data page and writes the newly changed page to the group buffer pool. All Db2 members that have this data page cached in their buffer pools are notified that the page was invalidated. If a member needs that data page, it must be refreshed.
