DB2 - Problem description
Problem IC87196 | Status: Closed |
CREATE INDEX COLLECT STATISTICS CAN GENERATE INCORRECT EXTERNAL INDEX STATISTICS | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
The COLLECT STATISTICS option of the CREATE INDEX statement can generate incorrect external index statistics for: - AVGLEAFKEYSIZE and AVGNLEAFKEYSIZE, - AVGPARTITION_CLUSTERRATIO, for non-partitioned indexes in partitioned table - DATAPARTITION_CLUSTERFACTOR, when the table is not a partitioned table which are visible in the SYSCAT.INDEXES catalog view. AVGLEAFKEYSIZE and AVGNLEAFKEYSIZE are used by the REORGCHK utility, and its recommendations might be affected by incorrect statistics. AVGPARTITION_CLUSTERRATIO and DATAPARTITION_CLUSTERFACTOR are statistics collected for the query optimizer. While unexpected statistics values might be visible in the external catalogs, the optimizer is not affected as it uses statistics stored in internal descriptors. | |
