Hi,
I would like to disable Health Monitor, because it produces some dump files to DRDA connection. It looks like bug, but I don't care, I would just like to disable Health Monitor.

On db2 v8.2 fp11 on Linux I have set to off dbm cfg parameter HEALTH_MON. But according to IBM documentation Health Monitor in v8.2 is not dependent on this parameter.

I have set this parameter to off, but executing command:
ps -ef | grep hmon
shows that db2mon is still active.

Solution for this problem should be according to IBM documentation to set registry variable DB2_FMP_COMM_HEAPSZ to 0, but this settings produces some application to unable to connect.

Is there any other way to disable Health Monitor?

Thanks & Regards

Pawan

Pawan,

If not, please recycle and let us know if disabled Health Monitor.

If it doesn't work, you need to disable the monitors for DBs and for tablespaces one a one.

Ex: disable a monitor

To view all alerts to dbm, db and tablespaces.

DB2 GET ALERT CFG FOR DBM

DB2 GET ALERT CFG FOR DATABASES

DB2 GET ALERT CFG FOR TABLESPACES

Disable the alerts one a one

db2 UPDATE ALERT CFG FOR TABLESPACES USING ts.ts_op_status 
SET THRESHOLDSCHECKED NO

Pawan,
