Problem description: | |
Creating an index using UDT columns limits the size of the index to 16,775,134 data pages per fragment because a data page is created no matter it is a detach index. It means index can not grow until "Maximum number of pages per index fragment" that is 2,147,483,647. For example the following index was created on a LVARCHAR column using "create unique index my_index on mytab (col_lvarchar) using btree in idxdbs1;" The 'oncheck -pt' of the index shows : Index my_index fragment partition idxdbs1 in DBspace idxdbs1 Physical Address 11:40 Creation date 10/24/2023 12:59:26 TBLspace Flags 802 Row Locking TBLspace use 4 bit bit-maps Maximum row size 1254 Number of special columns 0 Number of keys 1 Number of extents 1 Current serial value 1 Current SERIAL8 value 1 Current BIGSERIAL value 1 Current REFID value 1 Pagesize (k) 16 First extent size 4 Next extent size 4 Number of pages allocated 4 Number of pages used 3 Number of data pages 1 | |
