Multiple DB2inst1 process are running.

**cmuvvala** · Oct 17 '14, 07:06 AM

In our DB2 server, multiple around ( 100) db2inst1 process are running. Every day this count is getting increased and is going to hung state.

wondering why this many db2inst1 processess are running.

Thanks,
chandra.

Sample output ( ps -ef | grep db2inst1) is below.
