SPM Processes

This section describes the SPM processes.

EDU Process Names

The LU 6.2 SPM has Engine Dispatchable Units (EDUs) with the following names:

db2spmcm
The SPM APPC listener. This is a long-lived EDU that remains as long as DB2 is started.

db2spmrm
The SPM restart/resync manager EDU. This is a long lived EDU that remains as long as DB2 is started.

db2spmlw
The log write EDU of the SPM Logger. This is a long lived EDU that remains as long as DB2 is started.

db2spmri
The resynchronization initiator EDU. This is a short lived EDU that exists until the resync operation is completed. The number of EDUs of type db2spmri are controlled by the SPM_RESYNC_AGENT_LIMIT.

db2spmrr
The resynchronization receiver or XLN receiver EDU. This is a short lived EDU that is spawned by the SPM SNA listener when a syncpoint TP attach request is received.

In UNIX, these EDU names can be displayed as separate processes.
