DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC91749 Status: Closed

OPTIMIZER MIGHT CHOOSE A SUB-OPTIMAL ACCESS FOR TABLE WITH THE SAME SINGLE
COLUMN RANGE PARTITIONING KEY AND DISTRIBUTION KEY

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / A10 - DB2
Problem description:
Description: 
The optimizer might choose a table scan over an index access of 
a range partitioned table in a database partitioned environment 
under the following conditions: 
- the table is range partitioned and hash distributed on the 
same single column; e.g. 
    create table t1 (C1 date, ...) distribute by hash (C1) 
partition by range (C1) (starting (minvalue) ending 
('2010-12-31'), starting('2011-01-01') ending ('2011-01-31'), 
...) 
- the query contains an equality predicate on the column; e.g. 
C1='2012-01-15' 
- a partitioned index containing C1 in the key exists 
 
This problem is more likely to occur for tables with a large 
number of range partitions where the majority are empty.
