DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC99801 Status: Closed

INSTANCE TRAP WHEN CREATING A VIEW USING AN EXISTING TABLE ALIAS AND
DB2_WORKLOAD=SAP

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
You might encounter an instance trap while attempting a CREATE 
VIEW using a view name that matches an existing table alias in 
SYSTABLES. 
 
Following steps reproduce the issue in DB2 v9.7: 
 
0. DB2_WORKLOAD=SAP 
1. db2 "create table t1 (col1 int, col2 int)" 
2. db2 "create alias v1 for table t1" 
3. db2 "drop view v1" 
4. db2 "create view v1 as select * from t1"  -> instance trap 
 
At step 3 DB2 returns error SQL0159N - The statement references 
"DB2V978.T1" which identifies a(n) "TABLE" rather than a(n) 
"VIEW". 
If an application or user does not handle this and proceeds to 
step 4 the instance will trap during execution of the CREATE 
VIEW statement. 
 
This APAR fix ensures DB2 returns error SQL0601N - The name of 
the object to be created is identical to the existing name 
"DB2V978.V1" of type "ALIAS" - at step 4 instead of trapping the 
instance.
