I have a Windows DB2 9.7 FP8 server running on Windows 2003 x86 that for some reason every time I launch Center Administrator or the CLI and try to connect to a database, I get the error "[IBM][CLI Driver] SQL1219N The request failed because private virtual memory could not be allocated. SQLSTATE=57011".
Explanation:
The instance was unable to allocate enough private virtual memory to process the request. This may be a result of shared memory allocations made in other (unrelated) processes.
User response:
The problem may be corrected by: * Stopping other applications running on the machine, especially those that use large amounts of shared memory.
sqlcode: -1219
sqlstate: 57011
I have the same programs I've always had loaded on this server. I'm not sure when exactly the issue started, since I don't need to access the databases too often directly on server. I can launch Center Administrator from another server and connect remotely just fine.
I have over 1GB free memory.
I even rebooted server and changed boot.ini to include /3GB switch to give more memory (3GB instead of 2GB) to user processes.
I tried stopped a bunch of unused servers.
In short, I have no idea why this error is happening and if I can't resolve soon, will have to resort to upgrading to another FP or v10. I'm not sure uninstalling and reinstalling will work since I have active databases on the server?
Note: I'm not a DB2 expert and have to use it because SQL Server is too expensive and company has migrated off this platform. Go figure. Yet, everything I do with DB2 seems to be like hitting a break wall.
Any help would be appreciated.
