DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2

Using db2ckbkp tool to verify the content on a backup image 
whose member id is greater than 128 will generate a segmentation 
fault and end the program with a core dump. 
 
Reproduction: 
1. On AIX platform, create a database with topology such that 
the member id is greater than 128. For example, single partition 
on node 400, and member id is 400. 
> db2 create db sample 
 
2. Backup the database on that partition 
> db2 backup db sample 
 
3. Use db2ckbkp tool to verify the content of the backup image.

There's no local fix, db2ckbkp cannot verify the backup image. 
This error does not imply that the backup image is corrupted. 
User can still restore their database with the image.

Problem was first fixed in DB2 UDB Version 10.5 fix pack 5. 
db2ckbkp will correctly validate the content of the backup 
image.
