DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC97876 Status: Closed

DURING VIEW REGENERATION , DROPPING OF STATISTICS DON'T SET
STATISTICS_PROFILE COLUMN OF SYSTABLES CATALOG TABLE TO NULL.

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
This was exposed during S1 CRM for customer "Geico Insurance". 
The customer was upgrading from v97fp6 to v101fp2 and keep on 
getting engine trap in upgrade code. The upgrade code was trying 
to construct runstats profile command checking for NULLability 
of statistics_profile column. But in reality , the runstats 
profile is deleted via view regeneration code. Simple repro 
script to see this behavior : 
 
In v97 , 
 
create db test 
connect to test 
create table t(c1 int, c2 int, c3 int) 
insert into t values(1,1,1) 
create view v as select * from t 
alter view v enable query optimization 
runstats on table samadesa.v WITH DISTRIBUTION ON COLUMNS(c1,c2) 
set profile 
select name , creator, substr(statistics_profile,1,50) from 
sysibm.systables where name ='V' 
alter view v disable  query optimization 
alter table t drop column c2 
select name , creator, substr(statistics_profile,1,50) from 
sysibm.systables where name ='V' 
connect reset 
 
db2cat -d test -p table -n V -s SAMADESA -t|egrep "^Table:|^ 
Stats Profile Offset"|gnugrep -B1 ": 0" 
 
hotel85:/home/hotel85/samadesa> |^ Stats Profile Offset"|gnugrep 
-B1 ": 0"   <

Table: SAMADESA.V   (VIEW)

Now upgrade to v10 and you will get a trap in the same function 
while constructing runstats command.
