You might try turning off the DB2 agent. It looks like that is what the OOM killer is trying to do. It also looks like you have a lot of them running. Is that what you want?

Arbitrarily turning off services to figure it out could take you forever, and is not a good use of your time. (Although I would say turning Tivoli off would be a good first choice.) This is probably a good time to talk to management about buying such a tool, because you're likely to need it in the future.

After a special time some linux-guests seems to not answer on any network requests, e.g. ssh, ftp, telnet.... but it is possible to ping the machine. Firstly I thought that the maschine is dead, but that I noticed, that the response time is only VERY slow. It takes about 30-40 minutes to login.... And than, what a surprise, everything is ok till the next time. With fcon I can see that the CPU usage of the guest is very high. Any ideas were I can get some more informations or hints? We are running SLES7 and tivoli-framework. When our problem occurs we can see some strange messages in /var/log/messages: Jun 23 13:36:41 LXITIV02 sshd[13495]: Connection closed by ::ffff:10.64.84.41 Jun 23 13:41:20 LXITIV02 kernel: Out of Memory: Killed process 11553 (RIM_DB2_Agent).
