DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC61971 Status: Closed

DB2 INSTANCE CRASH WHEN THE TABLE DATA PARTITIONED BY SINGLE-BYTE
KEY

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
The CREATE TABLE statement could lead a DB2 instance to crash 
when running DB2 V9.7: 
 
1. table is partitioned. 
2. table has a varchar column with FOR SBCS DATA 
3. the partitioning column is on the same column as 2. 
 
For non-SBCS fields, CREATE TABLE works correctly.
