Description
Migrated from [DBZ-3363](https://issues.redhat.com/browse/DBZ-3363)
The C program for the DB2 Function asncdcservice only works for linux. On AIX the system call +"pgrep"+ does not exist.
Any call combined with a pipe let the function fail because not allowed forking.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the C implementation of the DB2 function asncdcservice and the Linux-specific pgrep and pipe usage mentioned in the issue. Check the AIX process-management constraints; done means the function works on AIX without relying on unavailable pgrep or forbidden forking.
