| Problem description: | |
If we try to alter the inline length of a column on which a
spatial index is defined like in the example below, the database
could get marked bad and crash:
1. Table DDL
CREATE TABLE "GISADME "."GIA4A11T" (
"OBJECTID" INTEGER NOT NULL ,
"FEATUREID" INTEGER ,
"ZORDER" INTEGER ,
"ANNOTATIONCLASSID" INTEGER ,
"ELEMENT" BLOB(1048576) LOGGED NOT COMPACT ,
"SYMBOLID" INTEGER ,
"STATUS" SMALLINT ,
"TEXTSTRING" VARCHAR(255) ,
"FONTNAME" VARCHAR(255) ,
"FONTSIZE" DECIMAL(31,8) ,
"USERID" VARCHAR(8) ,
"ZSP_AEND" TIMESTAMP ,
"SHAPE" "DB2GSE "."ST_MULTIPOLYGON" )
IN "TBLS32" INDEX IN "TBLS32" LONG IN "TBLS32" ;
CREATE INDEX "GISADME "."A41_IX1" ON "GISADME "."GIA4A11T"
("SHAPE" )
EXTEND USING "DB2GSE
"."SPATIAL_INDEX" (.360000e1,.180000e2,.000000e0) DISALLOW
REVERSE SCANS;
2. Alter statement:
alter table gisadme.gia4a11t alter column shape set inline
length 8000;
3. db2diag.log errors

If we specify a higher inline length we might just face a
SQL0614N error which might lead to expectation that we can run
the alter with a lower length, which could lead to crash:
alter table gisadme.gia4a11t alter column shape set inline
length
30000;
DB21034E The command was processed as an SQL statement because
it was not a
valid Command Line Processor command. During SQL processing it
returned:
SQL0614N The index or index extension "A41_IX1" cannot be
created or altered
because the combined length of the specified columns is too
long.
