Error description
db2icrt may be slow to complete due to an inefficiency in the way ports are scanned. Db2 searches for a range of ports that are : * not reserved in /etc/services * are not actually used on the server when db2icrt is run (by an attempt to bind a socket on that port - that takes roughly a second and where the most time is spent) per example , in a worst-case conditions like opening 500 ports, one every 6, which resulted in no consecutive range of 6 ports between 60000 and 60300 being available, db2icrt can take up to an hour to complete. This APAR is to change the logic for port assignments during instance creation
