can you elaborate more on the problem? Are you taking backup or restoring? Are you using root account or normal user account? Can you share the command / script used?
some more logs:
cat db2_stdout.070113
DB2_CLIENT = hostname
DB2_SERVER = hostname2
DB2_POLICY = DB2_ONLINE
DB2_SCHED = DB2_ONLINE
DB2_FULL = 1
DB2_CINC = 0
DB2_INCR = 0
Executing: db2 BACKUP DATABASE P30 online LOAD /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/n

Also please advice do we need to reboot the machine to make the changes permanent of limits.conf and sysctl.conf please advice?
limits.conf takes effect when the user authenticates, so you can just restart the service.
for sysctl.conf
Free BSD
sudo /etc/rc.d/sysctl reload
Other Distribution of Linux try:
sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf
You will not have to worry about rebooting.
for sysctl.conf
Free BSD
sudo /etc/rc.d/sysctl reload
Other Distribution of Linux try:
sudo sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf
You will not have to worry about rebooting.
