Informix - Problem description

Problem IC61144 Status: Closed

CHECKPOINTS OCCUR EVERY SECOND WHEN CREATING AN ONLINE INDEX ON A TEMPORARY
TABLE IN A TEMP DBSPACE

product:
IBM IDS ENTRP E / 5724L2304 / B15 - IDS 11.50
Problem description:
When creating an index on a non-logged temporary table in a temp 
dbspace and using the ONLINE keyword, the Informix Dynamic 
Server (IDS) is placed into a state where users cannot access 
the IDS because checkpoints are occurring every second.  This 
has reproduced with no rows in the temporary table.  If the 
ONLINE keyword is removed or there are no temporary dbspaces 
defined, the issue does not occur.

Local Fix:
To prevent this do not create the index with the ONLINE keyword 
or create the table in a non-temporary dbspace.
Solution
The problem is first fixed in IDS 11.50xC5 and IDS 10.00xC11. 
Basically, user created temporary tables are used only by the 
session that creates it, hence there won't be any parallel dmls 
on the table and so it won't make much sense to create an index 
in online mode. After the fix, server now internally creates 
the normal index.
