Problem IC76214 | Status: Closed |
Select from MON_BP_UTILIZATION might return SQL0413N due to overflow in ASYNC_NOT_READ_PERCENT column | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
The ASYNC_NOT_READ_PERCENT column is calculated as (unread_prefetch_pages / total_async_reads). In some cases the accounting of these two counters are incorrect, causing the ratio to be > 1. This usually happens when a prefetcher encounters an error during the read request, which causes DB2 to skip updating the total_async_reads, but not the unread_prefetch_pages. This problem usually happens after crash recovery or rollforward recovery because a prefetcher could encounter errors trying to prefetch pages that not yet exist. | |
