Problem description: | |
DB2 will require a lock on a seemingly unrelated table when performing a select. This can cause unexpected lock timeouts when a reorg is active. The following scenario demonstrates the problem. Consider 3 tables, A, B and C Table A has a foreign key on table B. A reorg of table A is started. A select similar to the following is executed : select ... from B left outer join C on ... In order to compile this query, DB2 will also evaluate constraints that may exist on the tables. As there is a foreign key constraint from A to B, table A will be locked but the lock mode is incompatible with the current lock due to the reorg. The fix for this APAR will relax the locking required so that table A will no longer need to be locked during query compilation | |
