IT40659: DB2 HADR START MAY TIMEOUT WAITING FOR DB2 START

Db2 Version 11.1 Mod 4 Fix Pack 7 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In an HADR environment, the HADR start script will wait for the
  Db2 instance to come online before proceeding with HADR start
  procedure. However, the Db2 start may be delayed waiting on
  service ports to be available. One scenario where service ports
  may not be immediately available is during the cleanup of a
  previous Db2 instance. In extreme cases where Db2 start is left
  waiting until maximum timeout or near maximum, the HADR start
  may timeout causing the HADR start to fail.
