DB2 - Problem description
| Problem IC88602 | Status: Closed |
ADMIN_MOVE_TABLE can fail with SQL0010N or a SQL0104N syntax error due to the length of comments. | |
| product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2 | |
| Problem description: | |
If there are multiple comments attached to a table and its
columns, and these comments exceed 1kB in size,
OTM cannot be used to move the table. ADMIN_MOVE_TABLE fails
with a sytax error, since the COMMENT ON
statement that copies the remarks gets truncated.
The error will be seen if the length of the command to set the
comments exceeds 1kb:
COMMENT ON "SCHEMA"."TABLE" ("COL1" IS 'This is the comment for
col1', "COL2" IS 'This is the comment on col2', ... etc. | |
