TABLE COLUMN DEFINITION CHANGES AFTER MOVING TABLE TO DIFFRENT FIXPACK BY
ADMIN_MOVE_TABLE

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
After creating the table using command below  .... DESCRIBE 
shows 
Column Length 13 and Scale 12: 
 
 
 
db2 "create table test ("CHGTSP" TIMESTAMP(12)) in userspace1" 
 
 
 
db2 "describe table test" 
 
 
 
                  Data type                  Column 
 
Column name       schema     Data type name  Length  Scale Nulls 
 
 
 
----------------- ---------- --------------- ------- ----- ----- 
 
 
 
CHGTSP            SYSIBM     TIMESTAMP            13    12 Yes 
 
 
 
  1 record(s) selected. 
 
 
 
 
 
db2 "insert into test values('2011-09-30 00:00:00.001293952')" 
 
DB20000I  The SQL command completed successfully. 
 
 
 
db2 "select * from test" 
 
 
 
CHGTSP 
 
-------------------------------- 
 
2011-09-30-00.00.00.001293952000 
 
 
 
  1 record(s) selected. 
 
 
 
 
 
DB2 "CALL SYSPROC.ADMIN_MOVE_TABLE ('DBINST97', 
 
'TEST','DMS1','DMS1','DMS1','','','','','','MOVE')" 
 
 
 
After the table MOVE the TIMESTAMP column has a Columnn Length 
of 10 and 
Scale of 6: 
 
 
 
 
 
db2 "describe table test" 
 
 
 
                  Data type                  Column 
 
Column name       schema     Data type name  Length  Scale Nulls 
 
 
 
----------------- ---------- --------------- ------- ----- ----- 
 
 
 
CHGTSP            SYSIBM      TIMESTAMP           10     6 Yes 
 
 
 
 
 
db2 "select * from test" 
 
 
 
CHGTSP 
 
-------------------------- 
 
2011-09-30-00.00.00.001293 
 
 
 
  1 record(s) selected. 
 
Here OTM is ignoring the length and scale values while 
constructing souce table column definition string. 
Hence we are seeing default length and scale values after table 
move. 
 
Its a product defect
