| Problem IC65650 | Status: Closed |
LOAD INTO A TABLE WITH COMPRESSION ENABLED BUT NO DICTIONARY CAN CRASH WITH MEMORY CORRUPTION ERROR | |
| product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
| Problem description: | |
When the Load utility is invoked into a table that is
compression enabled, but
no dictionary exists yet, the utility will execute Automatic
Dictionary Creation logic.
A flaw in this logic may cause the Load to crash with a memory
corruption error.
A db2diag.log error from the db2ltsc EDU, in function
sqloDiagnoseFreeBlockFailure
is a signature of this problem.
