DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
In some situations, statement compilation may fail to use the statistics collected for a global temporary table. This may lead to a non optimal access plan. For example, in the sequence of: 1. declare global temporary table 2. insert data into the global temporary table 3. runstats on the global temporary 4. use the global temporary table in a query the statement compilation in step4 may not use the statistics collected in step3. | |

Local Fix: | |
- After observing the problem, repeating the RUNSTATS operation typically clears the problem. - Querying the global temporary table prior to the RUNSTATS operation, for example with "select 1 from session.t1 fetch first 1 row only", typically avoids the problem. | |
