Error description

• The SIGIO signal (number 29) is not used by DB2 on linux.  To
  prevent the default action of process termination, DB2 will
  ignore SIGIO after an initial data collection.
  
  The first time a SIGIO signal is received, db2 will generate
  some diagnostic data and continue running.  Subsequent SIGIO
  signals will be ignored by the process.
