OPTIMIZER COMPUTES INCORRECT CARDINALITY ESTIMATE IN PRESENCE OF STATISTICAL VIEW WITH A PREDICATE THAT HAS AN EXPRESSION | |

DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A50 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
The optimizer might compute an incorrect cardinality estimate in an access plan for a SQL statement on which a statistical view is eligible, if the following conditions are true: 1) There is a statview ( sv1 ), whose SELECT list contains expression column. 2) There is another statview ( sv2 ), which contains a predicate involving the same expression. For example, consider the following statistical views: create view sv1(x) as (select c1+5 from t1); create view sv2(y) as (select c1 from t1 where c2+1 < 2 and c1+5 = 5); Please note the expression 'c1+5'. It is the output column of sv1 and it is also used in predicate for sv2. In this case, the optimizer might compute an incorrect cardinality estimate for the following SQL statement: select * from t1 where c1+5=5 and c2+1<2; The explain plan ( i.e. db2exfmt output ) of above SQL may show the following diagnostic messages: Diagnostic Details: EXP0233I The predicate "Q4.C1 + 5 = 5" contains an expression matching the statistical view column "SCHEMA1.SV1" Diagnostic Details: EXP0147W The following statistical view was used by the optimizer to estimate cardinalities: "SCHEMA1"."SV2". | |
