Problem description: | |
For DB2 users on Windows, performing a database restore over top of an existing database with the same name, after a database storage path has been removed, will succeed when an error should be returned instead. This is due to a defect within the DB2 code. Consider the following database backup and restore scenario: - db2start - db2 create db <dbname> on <path1> - db2 update db cfg for <dbname> using logretain on - db2 backup db <dbname> - db2 connect to <dbname> - db2 alter database <dbname> add storage on '<path2>' - db2 connect reset - db2 terminate - remove <path2> - db2 restore db <dbname> without rolling forward without prompting In the above scenario, because of the code defect, the restore command will return with the following, "SQL2540W Restore is successful, however a warning "2539" was encountered during Database Restore while processing in No Interrupt mode." instead of the expected result, which is the following error, "SQL1051N The path "<path2>" does not exist. SQLSTATE=57019" | |
