DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC62289 Status: Closed

Recursive loop in sqlischd caused by an incorrect high key on an
intermediate index node.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 910 - DB2
Problem description:
When a new highest index key value is inserted to an index leaf 
node, DB2 will update the corresponding index key value on a 
level 2 intermediate node. If the index key value on the level 2 
intermediate node happens to be the highest index key value on 
the node, DB2 will update the corresponding index key value on a 
level 3 intermediate or root node. Under a very small timing 
hole, DB2 may miss the update on the level 3 node. As a result, 
the index is corrupted. This problem applies to indexes which 
have more than 2 index levels. 
 
For example, this problem might be found as a "hang" issue that 
happens at backward phase of a crash recovery. 
To identify this problem, issue "db2pd -util" or "db2 list 
ulitilities show detail" commands and we will find crash 
recovery stop to progress at the backward phase of crash 
recovery.  Then, from db2 trace, we found crash recovery was 
stuck in a recursive loop as follows:

This problem can also lead to a SQLI_NOKEY problem when an index 
key is being updated or deleted from an index.
