Problem IC73819
|
Status: Geschlossen |
LOAD from IXF file into Oracle-compatible DB may fail to insert data, if input has NOT NULL column that has a 0-byte string |
| Produkt: |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 |
| Problembeschreibung: |
When performing LOAD operation into an Oracle-compatible
database (i.e. a database created with
DB2_COMPATIBILITY_VECTOR=ORA) from an IXF file, if DB2 first
loads a string with length=0, then it will treat all the
following strings as NULL values no matter if the string length
is zero or not. This problem will happen when the source table
column type is defined with NOT NULL (i.e. is not nullable), but
the target table column type is nullable.
This problem does not occur if we use IMPORT instead of LOAD.
It also does not occur if we use LOAD and DEL file instead of
LOAD and IXF file.
This problem can be reproduced in the following steps:
On source DB:
db2 "create db loaddb"
db2 "create table t1 (c1 varchar(10) not null )" -- c1 defined
with NOT NULL
db2 "insert into t1 values('')" -- insert '' before 'a'
db2 "insert into t1 values('a')"
db2 "export to t1.ixf of ixf select * from t1"
On target DB:
db2set DB2_COMPATIBILITY_VECTOR=ORA
db2 terminate
db2 "create db loaddb"
db2 "create table t1(c1 varchar(10))" -- on target, we define
the column c1 with NULL
db2 "load from t1.ixf of ixf replace into t1 "
$ db2 "select hex(c1) from t1"
