Connection to a DB2 V9.5 or higher database may hang when using VAS

Troubleshooting


Problem

New connections to a database may hang when using Vintella Authentication Services plug-in with DB2 V9.5 or higher.

Symptom

New connections will hang when attempting to authenticate the user. If the stacktrace of the db2agent connection is captured using "db2pd -stack <eduid>" you may see the most recent function calls as:
vas_db2_plugin_outcall_getgroups
vas_db2_plugin_lookup_groups
