DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC63760 Status: Closed

Table size may unnecessarily increase after failed inserts.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
When rows are inserted into a table, if all the free space in 
the existing pages is consumed, 
the table will to into append mode temporarily, until more space 
is available for inserts; 
for example, when subsequent inserts cause a new page to be 
added to the table. 
This can for instance happen on an import. 
 
However, if those subsequent inserts fail, the new page will 
still be allocated to the table but 
the table may remain in append mode. 
This will result in further inserts being appended to the table 
rather than reusing 
the space freed up by the failed inserts.  This can cause the 
table to grow in size 
without new rows being added.

pages.
