Error description

  • Release: omdb2_622FP1
    Environment: 64bit Windows Server 2008 Enterprise + SP2,ITM
    6.2.2,DB2
    9.7 FP2
    Problem Description: on a Windows using Japanese encoding
    (IBM-943), DB2 agent fails opening the file db2nodes.cfg because
    the absolute path string is incorrectly converted in the local
    codepage (943), and some backslash characters are removed,
    making it unusable to find the db2nodes.cfg file.
    Problem occurs because
    unlike Codepage 932, Windows Codepage 943 doesnot contain the
    Yen(or backslash) character at 0x5C.
    Therefore the conversion is incorrectly processed.

Problem summary

  • (4C88FCBA.009C-9DC:kudagentcommon.cpp,1113,"GetDBPartitionList")
    Failed

    error No
    such file or directory.
    (4C88FCBA.009D-9DC:kudagentcommon.cpp,1270,"GetDBPartitionList")
    Failed
    to open file C:?ROGRAMDATA?BM?B2?B2COPY1DB2db2nodes.cfg for Ç?Ò
    error No
    such file or directory.
    

Problem conclusion

  • cp943 can't translate directory correct.it uses cp932 but
    it is safe to do so because it is done only in
    this specific part of the code (translation of directory path
    and name)
    where we
    will not have NEC selected characters.
    will be in a new fix  6.2.2-TIV-ITM_DB2-IF0002
