5.22 DLFM1001E (New Error Message)

DLFM1001E: Error in drop_dlm processing.

Cause:

The DB2 Data Links Manager was unable to initiate unlink and garbage collection processing for the specified database. This can happen because of any of the following reasons:

• The DB2 Data Links Manager is not running.
• An invalid combination of database, instance, and hostname was specified in the command.
• There was a failure in one of the component services of the DB2 Data Links Manager.

Action:

Perform the following steps:

1. Ensure that the DB2 Data Links Manager is running. Start the DB2 Data Links Manager if it is not already running.
2. Ensure that the combination of database, instance, and hostname identifies a registered database. You can do this using the "dlfm list registered databases" command on the DB2 Data Links Manager.
3. If an error still occurs, refer to information in the db2diag.log file to see if any component services (for example, the Connection Management Service, the Transaction Management Service, and so on) have failed. Note the error code in db2diag.log, and take the appropriate actions suggested under that error code.
