Scott,
As I had mentioned in my previous email, Appendix A, DB2 Internal Return
Codes, of the DB2 Troubleshooting Guide, provides information on how to
interpret DB2 internal codes (FFFF**** or ****FFFF formats).
For the codes with FFFF**** format, simply look for the four character
hexadecimal value in the Appendix. For example, the code FFFFE60A can be
interpreted by looking up the entry for E60A in the Appendix and finding
out that it means the File does not exist.
For ****FFFF codes:
1. Byte-reverse them
Switch the first four characters with the last four characters, and
then the fifth and sixth characters with the seventh and eighth
character. For example, the error code 0AE6FFFF is translated to
FFFFE60A
2. Convert it to decimal format, using a hexadecimal conversion too
If it is in the Message Reference, then it is a SQL code
Else it is an internal code � check the Troubleshooting Guide
Hope this helps ...

Does anyone know how to convert John's error code, ZRC=0xFFFFE60A, into
anything useful? I thought that I had seen a method for this at one
time but cannot find it right now.
Thanks,
Scott

First, check with your people to see if anyone deleted a file as that is
what the diaglogs are saying. Looks like a log file. If this is the
case
& a restore & rollforward to most current log time is not an option; IBM
labs may help you resolve this.
Otherwise,
Are your logs or tablespaces on a SAN? If the SAN is not configured
correctly the Win locking mechanism could have allowed something else to
access the LUN your volume is on. You can go into explorer or command
line & just look at a directory on the volume, if it is marked as not
accessable/corrupt; then DB2 won't be able to access. The SAN LUNs are
sometimes rebuildable or fixable when this occurs (ie: if you have a hot
spare).
Sometimes DB2 heals itself when it sees its resource is available
again(look for crash recovery or node recovery in the diag log).

This server was just activated last week, so I was able to go back and
review the entire DB2DIAG.LOG and I ran into no other occurrences of
this sequence of errors. We do have db2 backups that run nightly, but
these errors have occurred outside of the time that the backups were
running and these backups go to a d:\db2\backups directory. We have
this same setup on several other servers and are not encountering any
problems.
Thanks,
Tim

Please respond to
"John Lantz"
We are at the same level of fixpack as you and not running into a
problems. What you are describing sounds like something we ran into a
long time ago
when we first started using UDB. Is there any kind of backup
processing
going on when these errors occur? If DB2 can't get to a file because
some other process had hold of it, DB2 would say something is wrong and
mark the database as bad. It took us a while to learn to make sure that
the server
backups were not touching anything that DB2 wanted. I doubt if this is
it
if the problem just started happening...
Thanks.

Subject: [DB2EUG] Database Marked Bad?????
Hello Again List,
We have been getting errors in the db2diag.log this morning that seem to
be related to 2 different databases. Below is a sequence of these
errors. This sequence has been repeated 2 time each for both of the
databases. The sequences of errors are not happening at the same time.
We haven't heard of anything being wrong from the user end and I can
connect to and query against the tables in the databases. We are at UDB
version 7.2 fixpack 6 on Windows 2000. I am wondering if anyone has
seen something similar to this or has any ideas where I might need to
start to look to resolve this. The last line stating "Marking the
database as bad" is very concerning to me as you may know. I am
wondering what exactly that would mean.
Any guidance is appreciated.
Thanks,
Tim
