Error description
APAR IT25325 introduced a new command called "repair objectversions" in server versions 8.1.9 and higher. This "repair objectversions" command is also run automatically by the server on a weekly basis and will be seen starting with: "Process 4 for REPAIR OBJECTVERSIONS (AUTOMATIC) started in the BACKGROUND" amd can be seen by 'query process' as "repair objectversions (automatic)" When the process runs it can cause a pinned log or can use excessive memory, and it can also affect other operations on the server, as it runs a transaction that will run for excessive duration. Examples of messages caused by "repair objectversions" running: ANR0171I imbkins.c(7546): Error detected on 50:5,  database in evaluation mode. (PROCESS: 4) ANR0162W Supplemental database diagnostic information:  -1:40003:-1224 ([IBM][CLI Driver] SQL1224N The database  manager is not able to accept new requests, has  terminated all requests in progress, or has terminated  the specified request because of an error or a forced  interrupt.
