Problem description: | |
After an alter table DDL is run, the value of the alter_time column of syscat.tables may be not changed accordingly. For example: > db2 "create table TEST1(c1 char(10))" DB20000I The SQL command completed successfully. >date Tue Feb 22 08:38:35 CST 2011 >db2 "select create_time, alter_time from syscat.tables where TABNAME='TEST1'" CREATE_TIME ALTER_TIME -------------------------- -------------------------- 2011-02-22-08.38.29.354479 2011-02-22-08.38.29.354479 1 record(s) selected. >date Tue Feb 22 08:39:18 CST 2011 //add a column here using alter table DDL >db2 "alter table TEST1 add column c2 char(10)" DB20000I The SQL command completed successfully. >db2 "select create_time, alter_time from syscat.tables where TABNAME='TEST1'" CREATE_TIME ALTER_TIME -------------------------- -------------------------- 2011-02-22-08.38.29.354479 2011-02-22-08.38.29.354479 //As the above shows, the timestamp value for ALTER_TIME column was still 2011-02-22-08.38.29.354479, which should have been changed. This issue only occurs in V9.7 or later, it doesn't occur in V9.5 version. | |
