DB2 - Problem description
Problem IC89682 | Status: Closed |
POOR QUERY PERFORMANCE IF JOIN PREDICATE APPLIED TO THE FIRST AND LAST COLUMNS OF AN INDEX WITH INTERMEDIATE LOCAL PREDICATES | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
Query performance may be poor when the query contains at least three (3) tables joined together using INNER or OUTER joins and there are at least 2 equal join predicates and at least two local equality predicate. The last table in the join sequence must have multicolumn index covering the columns involved in the predicates. The equality join predicates must be applicable on the first and last columns of the index with the local eer quality predicate applicable on the intermediate columns of the index. Under these conditions the optimizer may incorrectly calculate the cost of the joins leading to a poorly performing plan. | |

**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * All * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * See Error Description * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * * Upgrade to DB2 version 9.7 fixpack 9 * **************************************************************** | |
Local Fix: | |
Use an optimization profile to obtain a better join order or Change the index definition so that the join predicate are applicable to either the leading or trailing columns of the index without any intermediate local equality predicates. | |
