Component : DB2 Universal Database for Unix / NT -

Summary :
When starting SAP programs with DB2 version 08.02.0002 or higher, the database connection may close if the registry variable "DB2_WORKLOAD=SAP" is not active. This variable, essential from DB2 V8.2.2 (Fixpak 9), optimizes the system for SAP environments. Users experiencing this issue should verify their DB2 registry settings using the "db2set -all" command, which shows whether "DB2_WORKLOAD=SAP" is active and lists the optimized settings triggered by this variable. If inactive, activating this variable is crucial. Additionally, ensure the software installation aligns with SAP's guidelines for DB2 V8.2.2 or later versions.
