DB2 - Problem description

Problem IT17556 Status: Closed

INCORRECT RESULTS ARE POSSIBLE WHEN JOIN AGAINST CDE TABLES IS DONE AND AN
UNDOCUMENTED JOIN SUPPORT REGISTRY VARIABLE SET

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / B10 - DB2
Problem description:
If an undocumented join support registry variable is set and 
the plan has a left early out join with residual predicate, 
then sql might loose rows if: 
 
1.  Join between 3 or more column organized tables, using 
equality predicates 
 
2.  One of the tables has a primary key constraint that is 
referenced in the join 
 
3.  The table with the primary key constraint joins 2 or more 
other tables on the primary key constraint, but not the same 
columns; e.g. if primary key constraint is on T1 (a,b), then T1 
joins T2 on column a, and T1 joins T3 on column b.  It can 
likely occur with single column primary key as well; e.g using 
the same example, but change primary key to (a).  As long as the 
residual predicate completes the qualification of the primary 
key, then we should hit this problem.
