Default db2diag.log

Hi,
here is a message I have been recieving in my db2diag.log file

240 E457831A419 LEVEL: Warning (OS)

PID : 369436 TID : 5707 PROC : java

INSTANCE: db2inst1 NODE : 000

FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, oper system services, sqloqualifydir, probe:30

CALLED : OS, -, unspecified_system_function

OSERR : ENOENT (2) "A file or directory in the path name does not
exist."

DATA #1 : File name, 27 bytes

/u01/home/db2inst1/db2inst1


This is repeating through out the day. I cannot find anything in the
dbm or db parameters that point to this location. This being a new
machine no other users are connected to it. I am just prepping up the
machine.

It _appears_ that DB2 is trying to write to a specfic path,
/u01/home/db2inst1/db2inst1, and not finding it.

I think you need to figure out _why_ it is trying to write to that
path. Then, if that is the correct path, you'll need to create the
necessary directories or, if it isn't the correct path, you'll want to
change the parameters to make it point to the desired path.

Based on the "FUNCTION:" line, I'm _guessing_ that DB2 is trying to
write a log file to that path. I would have expected to see the
troublesome path in your dbm or db configurations but you say that you
have already checked them and that path is not used. All I can suggest
is that you double-check them just to see if you missed one. Perhaps it
is the data warehouse database, not one of the ones you created for
yourself??

It is a dw database, i had redirected restored the database from
another machine. But even in that machine there is no path like this. I
double and triple checked the paths in db and dbm cfg's there is no
path like this

the salient paths:
db cfg

Path to log files =
/u02/db2alogs/cdxxxx/NODE0000/

dbm cfg
Default database path (DFTDBPATH) =
/u01/db2catalogs

I dont know why it is still looking for this path

actually I found one more thing, this error happens when I start the
control center. Well that does not solve the problem.

If you're going to start top-posting, this is going to get
confusing....

It looks like you're working with a flavour of Unix or Linux. Could
there be a symbolic link pointing from one of your paths to the one
mentioned in the message?

Other than that, I'm not sure what else to suggest.

You could try googling on sqloqualifydir or other keywords in the log
entry (in both Google Groups and Google Web) to see if you can find
other problem reports that might be related. That might give you a clue
about what you should do.

You could create the path it wants - just leave it empty or put a
harmless file in there - and see if the problem goes away. This _might_
increase the scope of the problem if the file it wants is critical but
that might be helpful if you get more and/or clearer messages that tell
you what exactly is wrong.

You could ignore the message since there is apparently nothing
misbehaving within your system beyond the generation of this message.

You could call IBM Support and ask for their help. That will cost you
something if you don't already have a support contract but maybe it
will be worth if for your peace of mind.

I suppose it depends on how much this bothers you and how much time and
money you're willing to spend to resolve the problem.
