Problem IC74801 | Status: Closed |
INCORRECT STORAGE PATH INFORMATION REPORTED FOR JUNCTION (MOUNT)POINT STORAGE PATHS | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
On Windows, when specifying storage paths in DB2, if a storage path contains a junction (mount) point, DB2 will end up obtaining incorrect information about the mounted storage path (e.g. incorrect filesystem ID, incorrect storage free space). This can result in incorrect storage path information being reported in database snapshots taken against databases containing such storage paths. The problem stems from how DB2 gathers this information internally. | |
