DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC91273 Status: Closed

SLOWER QUERY PLAN CAN BE MADE ON VARCHAR2 COMPABILITY DB IF EQUA LITY JOIN
PREDICATES ON CHAR OR GRAPHIC COLS WITH HOST VARIABLES

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
Databases that are created with Varchar2 Compability enabled 
may experience poorly performing query access plans for queries 
that have equality join predicates on CHAR or GRAPHIC columns 
and the same columns are used in an equal predicate with a 
VARCHAR or VARGRAPHIC host variable or parameter marker. 
 
  Your environment will need to be configured to use Deferred 
Prepare via the registry variable 
DB2_DEFERRED_PREPARE_SEMANTICS=YES or DB2_COMPATIBILITY_VECTOR 
to be impacted. 
 
  To verify is you are impacted by this problem, obtain the 
access plan and look for a FILTER operation above NLJOIN, MSJOIN 
or HSJOIN operation. For example 
 
0.178997 
 FILTER 
 (  25) 
 79.6035 
   NA 
   | 
 111.873 
 NLJOIN 
 (  26) 
 79.5749 
   NA 
 
  and where the operator details for the FILTER contains 
residual predicates referencing $Cx columns. For example: 
 
71) Residual Predicate, 
Comparison Operator: Equal (=) 
Subquery Input Required: No 
Filter Factor: 0.04 
 
Predicate Text: 
-------------- 
($C2 = $C1)

Local Fix:
Turn off Deferred Prepare or explicitly cast the host 
variables / parameter markers to the type of the column used in 
the predicates.
