| Problem description: |
When trying to shrink the length of a VARCHAR type column, you
may receive a SQL0901N.
For example,
create table t(c1 varchar(10))
insert into t(c1) values ('abcde ')
alter table t alter column c1 set data type varchar(5)
DB21034E The command was processed as an SQL statement because
it was not a valid Command Line Processor command. During SQL
processing it returned:
SQL0901N The SQL statement failed because of a non-severe
system error. Subsequent SQL statements can be processed.
(Reason "Unexpected data partitioning PD version number".)
