LOAD INTO A TABLE WITH COMPRESSION ENABLED BUT NO DICTIONARY CAN CRASH WITH MEMORY CORRUPTION ERROR | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
When the Load utility is invoked into a table that is compression enabled, but no dictionary exists yet, the utility will execute Automatic Dictionary Creation logic. A flaw in this logic may cause the Load to crash with a memory corruption error. A db2diag.log error from the db2ltsc EDU, in function sqloDiagnoseFreeBlockFailure is a signature of this problem. 2009-11-20-08.05.21.048714-300 E112615E946 LEVEL: Critical PID : 1234 TID : 46913982294336PROC : db2sysc 0 INSTANCE: db2inst1 NODE : 000 DB : MYDB APPHDL : 0-99 APPID: *N0.regress9.091120130422 AUTHID : DB2INST1 EDUID : 429 EDUNAME: db2ltsc 0 FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, SQO Memory Management, sqloDiagnoseFreeBlockFailure, probe:10 MESSAGE : ADM14001C An unexpected and critical error has occurred: "Panic".
