The MEMLIMIT parm is discussed in PK03680. ...In the absence of an explicit MEMLIMIT setting, DB2 uses 4 TB. If MEMLIMIT is specified, DB2 only honors MEMLIMIT settings above 4 TB...In summary, MEMLIMIT is an upper limit, it does not imply usage. DB2 does allocate memory objects above the 2GB bar - but only uses what it needs. It remains important to monitor use of real and auxiliary storage, and to avoid allocating buffer pools to be larger than real storage...
Cheers I'd like to know what shops are doing for DB2 V8 and storage above the bar. Anyone care to share what they have as settings for MEMLIM on the DBM1 start up proc and MLMT on the IRLM startup proc? Anyone have a standard calculation they use to set these values? -------------------------------------------------------- This email and associated attachments may contain confidential and privileged CITEC information that is provided solely for the use of the intended addressee.
