Resetting the REBUILD-pending status

REBUILD-pending status (which appears as RBDP in the output from the DISPLAY command) means that the physical or logical index partition, nonpartitioned secondary index, or logical partition of a nonpartitioned secondary index is in REBUILD-pending status.

The variations of REBUILD-pending status are as follows:

RBDP
The physical or logical index partition is in the REBUILD-pending status. The individual physical or logical index partition is inaccessible. Reset the RBDP status by rebuilding the single affected partition. If multiple partitions are in RBDP status, you can rebuild either the entire index or all affected partitions.
RBDP*
The logical partition of the nonpartitioned secondary index is in the REBUILD-pending status. The entire nonpartitioned secondary index is inaccessible. Reset RBDP* status by rebuilding only the affected logical partitions.
PSRBD
The nonpartitioned secondary index space is in the REBUILD-pending status. The entire index space is inaccessible. Rebuild the object with the REBUILD INDEX utility. This state only applies to nonpartitioned secondary indexes.
You can reset the REBUILD-pending status for an index with any of these operations:
  • REBUILD INDEX
  • REORG TABLESPACE SORTDATA
  • REPAIR SET INDEX with NORBDPEND
  • START DATABASE command with ACCESS FORCE
Attention: Use the START DATABASE command with ACCESS FORCE only as a means of last resort.
