DB2 V9.5 FP5 : Single partitioned environment
Our diaglog complained that one the transaction was using more log space.
This is what the message said. "Active log is held by application handle 6783".
When I took a snapshot of that application it showed a select statement.
Select * from table
The application's idle time was more than a day.
Does a select statement consume transaction logs ? Could this situation happen because that select statement was not committed ? Does an uncommitted select statement use transaction logs at all? I am kind of confused. Can someone help me clariy ?
