    ****************************************************************
    When AUTHEXIT_CACHEREFRESH system parameter is set to ALL, DB2
    listens to the ENF signals sent from RACF for changes to user or
    resource profile.
    RACF sends an ENF 71 signal when the CONNECT command is issued
    in RACF. DB2 only processes the ENF 71 notification for RACF
    CONNECT command REVOKE option. The storage obtained to process
    the ENF 71 signal was not freed correctly if other RACF CONNECT
    options were specified. This resulted in a storage leak in the
    DBM1 address space.
    Keywords:
    DB2STGLK/K
    

Problem conclusion

  • DB2 code has been changed to free the storage correctly in the
    above scenario.
