DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

If a Load into a table that resides in an SMS tablespace fails 
and the table is left in Load Pending state (ie. a Load 
Terminate is not yet executed), and a Backup is executed, then 
the backup may fail with a SQLB_BADP error. 
 
An entry similiar to the following can be seen in the 
db2diag.log.

modulus 500 will always be 0 when this particular APAR is 
encountered.

To resolve the issue, follow the steps below - 
 
1. invoke a Load Query to confirm the table is in Load_Pending 
   state, 
2. perform a Load TERMINATE to bring the table out of 
   Load_Pending state, 
3. invoke the Backup. 
 
Alternatively, the problem does not occur if the table resides 
in 
a DMS or AUTOMATIC STORAGE tablespace.
