Error description
A Db2 HPU 6.1 job may terminate with an ABEND S0C4 when the following condition is fulfilled: - Db2 HPU runs out of memory at the beginning of an unload during thread creation This leads to an abnormal termination instead of displaying the following message: INZI458E THE UTILITY COULD NOT START A NEW THREAD OR PROCESS (CODE 0x84X) (EDC5132I Not enough memory.)
Local fix
None, but solving the memory outage (refer to the INZU312I messages and IEF032I that help determine what memory is missing) avoids to trigger this issue.
