Adjacent key locking on IBM
Posted in 1997
All
I noticed a lot of messages talking about adjacent key locking
on AIX running V7 informix.
I am aware that V7 is not supposed to use it, but I have to say
that I am seeing errors on our system that look suspiciously
like an adjacent key locking problem (they are rare events).
So here is the setup:
IBM SP2
AIX 4.1
Informix V7.14 UD3
Is there anyone out there that has conclusive proof that this
beast does exist in an IBM environment (either through testing
or because informix have confirmed it still exists on this
platform).
Does anyone have a lock monitoring tool suitable for capturing
information on this event. I am looking for something that can
be run from cron, or runs as a daemon process and can capture
onstat output (or SMI) related to this event.
Thanks for any info
