DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC73877 Status: Closed

THE OPTIMIZER MAY CHOOSE A SUB-OPTIMAL ACCESS PLAN FOR SQL USING SUB-SELECT
& PLACE HOLDER VARIABLE.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2
Problem description:
The optimizer may choose a sub-optimal access plan for an SQL 
statement which uses an IN and a place holder variable as part 
of the FROM clause. 
 
e.g. 
select ... from tab1, tab2 where tab1.COLA=tab2.COLA and 
tab1.COLB IN (?,?,?,...); 
 
If there is an index with t1.COLB as the leading column in the 
key, the optimizer can consider an in-to-join transformation of 
the IN predicate shown in the WHERE clause. 
If the access of tab1 is on the inner of a NLJN, the optimizer 
might consider a plan with a TEMP over the inner access that 
might be beneficial for the in-to-join access on the inner.  In 
general, this is a good option to consider but when there are 
statement place holders, the cardinality estimates cannot always 
be accurate.
