DB2 - Problem description
| Problem IC80529 | Status: Closed |
DB2 OPTIMIZER MIGHT CHOOSE SUB-OPTIMAL INDEX-ORING ACCESS PLAN WHEN ALL RECORDS IN THE TABLE ARE RETURNED. | |
| product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
| Problem description: | |
If a query contains only one predicate, an IN predicate, and all
records in the table qualify the predicate, the optimizer might
choose an index-oring access plan as in the following example
query and access plan:
SELECT * FROM FACT WHERE YEAR IN ( 2012, 2013, 2014 );
...
FETCH
/-----+------\
RIDSCN TABLE: SCHEMA1
| FACT
|
+-----------------+-----------------+
SORT SORT SORT
| | |
IXSCAN IXSCAN IXSCAN
| | |
INDEX: SCHEMA1 INDEX: SCHEMA1 INDEX: SCHEMA1
INDEX1 INDEX1 INDEX1
If all possible values in the column YEAR are referenced in the
values list of the IN predicate, then a table-scan access plan
will be a better choice. | |
