Limit the DB2 memory usage

The following memory settings exist without DBMEMPERCENT being specified in the dsmserv.opt file:

(These values are found in the output from “db2 get dbm cfg show detail” issued as the db2 instance owner).

Description  : Size of instance shared memory (4KB)
Parameter    : (INSTANCE_MEMORY)
Current Value: AUTOMATIC(363892)
Delayed Value: AUTOMATIC(363892)

Add DBMEMPERCENT to the dsmserv.opt file:

dbmempercent 30

Halt and restart the server, the server reports:
ANR1383I Memory usage by the database is limited to 562MB.

If you issue the “db2 get dbm cfg show detail” again, you will see that the values have not been applied:
