A SAS/CONNECT software session might result in orphaned processes on a remote UNIX server if both of the following conditions are true:

1. You do not submit a SIGNOFF statement after sign-on has been previously established with a SIGNON statement AND you do either of the following without first submitting the SIGNOFF statement:
   • You close the SAS client by selecting File ► Close.
   • You click the Close button (X) in the upper-right corner of the SAS client window.
2. You remotely submit a long-running SQL job to the server and then shut down SAS using either of the options described in Step 1.

These conditions might also cause a high CPU spike on the server as a result of the stray process on the server.

Note: The hot fix associated with this note refers to Hot Fix E9D210 as well. This hot fix should ONLY be applied if you are running SAS/ACCESS Interface to DB2.

Select the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue.

ATTENTION: This hot fix is intended for UNIX and Windows customers running the DB2 client 8.1 Fix Pack 9 or later. Customers running earlier versions of the DB2 client should only install hot fixes prior to E9D205.
