Problem description: | |
The APAR IC79996: Enhance the db2cat tool to identify table which may still be impacted by the consequences of the APARs IZ39997 & IZ40001 Does not detect the situation when we have a regular view of the same name as the orphaned MST. Example: Dependent MST DESCRIPTION ------------------------- Schema of the dependent Table : MARIAJ Table name of the dependent Table : V_TEST Refresh Option : MST type : Sts View Isolation Level : 1 Arithmetic Warning Level : 78 $ db2 drop table test DB21034E The command was processed as an SQL statement because it was not a valid Command Line Processor command. During SQL processing it returned: SQL0901N The SQL statement failed because of a non-severe system error. Subsequent SQL statements can be processed. (Reason "Dependent MST's packed Descriptor not found".) SQLSTATE=58004 1. If there are no views defined with the same name as the orphaned statsview , db2cat with APAR IC79996 will report the corruption: db2cat -d test_db -s mariaj -n test -v **************************************************************** Validating Packed Descriptor: MARIAJ .TEST Orphan dependent MST (count = 0) found in packed descriptor: MARIAJ .V_TEST 2. If we have a view with the same name (it does not need to have the same columns) as the Orphan dependent MST, the db2cat enhanced with APAR IC79996 will not detect this corruption. db2 create view v_test as select c1,c3 from test **************************************************************** Validating Packed Descriptor: MARIAJ .TEST No Corruption Detected. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This APAR will make additional improvements to db2cat so the corruption is detected in both cases. | |
