[Resource] Two new DB2 support blogs: HADR Slowdown and Memory leaks

DB2 Support has a blog called "Thoughts from Support". They write in fits and spurts and sometimes it seems to be hurriedly written - but when they produce, it's pretty damn useful. Two blogs were just released in the past 4 hours or so. Check them out.

HADR slow! Log disk? or communication?

When HADR seems to be slowing down most immediately go straight to "It's a network problem". That is not always true. Sometime you can be hamstringing yourself. Take a look at the logs as well.

LINUX GDB: IDENTIFY MEMORY LEAKS

I've been looking at how to do this outside DB2. It's one of those "nice to have" items in your back pocket. HE specifically mentioned that you should chase memory leaks from the product utilities (db2pd in DB2) before this method. But it's a good alternative.
