DB2 10.5 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
DB2® connections between clients and servers use the TCP/IP protocol to communicate. In order to prevent potential failover issues caused by timeouts within the TCP/IP layer, it is necessary to adjust the TCP/IP keepalive parameters on the client. Decreasing the keepalive values on the client improves timely detection of server failures.
