  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When SQL statement gets SQLERROR (e.g. SQLCODE330), an improper
    SQLCA processing may happen, which results in incorrout for
    sequential case, or parent loop in DSNXPSRD for //ism case.

Problem summary

    * USERS AFFECTED: All DB2 9 and DB2 10 for z/OS users          *
    *                 of queries containing predicates.            *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Improper SQL error processing can occur *
    *                      for a query involving predicates when   *
    *                      the query is being executed             *
    *                      sequentially.  If the query is executed *
    *                      with parallelism, a loop can occur.     *

    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    Improper SQL error processing can occur for a query involving
    predicates.
    
    When DB2 is processing a query with predicates and an SQLCODE
    -330 (SQLCODE330) or -332 (SQLCODE332) error is expected, the
    error message may not be properly formatted when the query is
    running sequentially.  Additionally, if the query is executed
    with parallelism, a loop can occur.
    
    There are many reasons that DB2 will issue an SQLCODE -330 or
    -332.  One scenario is when converting a UNICODE string into an
    EBCDIC string and the resulting string is not a valid EBCDIC
    string.  In this case, DB2 is supposed to issue an SQLCODE.
    But, due to the processing error, no SQLCODE is formatted for
    certain cases.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code in DB2 has been modified to process SQL errors
    properly so that the error will be externalized as expected.
    So, the correct SQL code will be issued which will prevent the
    incorrect result from being returned for the sequential case or
    the looping condition for the parallel case.
