DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC76340 Status: Closed

DATABASE CRASHES DURING REORG DUE TO FAILING INDEX PREFETCHING LOGIC

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
Database crashed during table reorg due to failing index leaf 
prefetching logic, as reported by the following probe: 
 
2011-04-03-02.19.38.282689+000 I7036583A2349      LEVEL: Severe 
PID     : 1274058              TID  : 12081       PROC : db2sysc

INSTANCE: xxxxxx               NODE : 000 
EDUID   : 12081                EDUNAME: db2pfchr (xxx) 0 
FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, buffer pool services, sqlbServiceLeafRequest, 
probe:4479 
DATA #1 : String, 9 bytes 
 
The error occurred while DB2 was getting ready to prefetch index 
leaf pages from disk. This type of request is made by the index 
leaf page scanner during a REORG TABLE. Defensive code check 
determines that the number of page entries exceeds the page 
array size. Prior to RID list compression an array size equal to 
pageSize was enough to store all of the RIDs from a single index 
page, but with RID list compression this is no longer true. In 
any case, this internal programming error should be gracefully 
handled; it should not bring down database. The condition that 
brought down the database originates from freeing the same 
pointer twice while handling the previous error. The following 
db2diag.log entry alerts to the memory error:
