I was having an issue inserting data into a table in an I-Series DB2
database. The Insert statement itself is very simple:
Insert into Table1
select * from Table2
These two tables have identical structures.
What happens is that the process gets locked and one cannot kill it
regardless of what one does. The only solution seems to be to IPL the
machine.
The above Insert works fine for all the other tables. What is special
about this table layout is that it has two self-referential
constraints. The "bulk" select/insert contains records that would
reference each other after they were all inserted.
Here is a simplified layout:
CREATE TABLE testtable
(
personId DEC(9,0) NOT NULL,
.... various fields ...
fatherId DEC(9,0) NOT NULL,
motherId DEC(9,0) NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT pk001 PRIMARY KEY (personId)
)
;
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX idx001 ON testtable (personId ASC)
;
ALTER TABLE testtable ADD CONSTRAINT fk001 FOREIGN KEY (
fatherId
)
REFERENCES testtable (
personId
)
;
ALTER TABLE testtable ADD CONSTRAINT fk002 FOREIGN KEY (
motherId
)
REFERENCES testtable (
personId
)
;
As things stand, I cannot change the layout.
Since the "bulk" select/insert does not work, I have changed to a
"programmat ic" record-at-a-time approach. (I guess I could also
unload/load). But, I'm curious is anyone has encountered this issue.
I would think that even if the data is bad or the data cannot be
handled, it ought to end with some kind of SQL error rather than
locking up and "hanging".
Has anyone encountered and/or solved this issue? 1 3098
I'm not sure what is happening but I offer the following thoughts:
1. If table2 is not updated because it is populated from table1; drop
the relational constraint on table 2.
2. Try loading without the relational constraint then altering the table
to add it.
3. check if the "NOT ENFORCED" clause of a constraint definition can be
used to allow loading and then reactivate the constraint.
None of there addresses the underlying question but they may provide a
workaround.

Hellos again,
I seem to be having a weird issue. Whenever DB2 Health monitor seems
to run, all connections to the database seem to just lock up. For
example: (and this seems consistent) In list applications, DB2Hmon
will show as "compiling statement", If I issue a "connect to
database"it will hang there until DB2HMON is completed and no longer
showing as a active application. Below is a lock snapshot that occurs
when this is happening....

I'm evaluating the CA ERWin product for an upcoming data warehousing

I've sucessfully tested it on a SQL Server 2000 system, however, when
I run it against our iSeries DB2 system (on which our ERP exists), I
encounter errors that essentially say that files are missing from our
SYSCAT library. I'm not an iSeries expert, but I can say that the

The ETL application loaded around 3000 rows in 14 seconds in a Development

the application looks for existing rows in the table...if they already
exist then it updates otherwise inserts them.
The table is pretty large, around 6.5 million rows.

Hi
I'm using DB2 V9.1.0 on SUSE Linux with kernel version 2.6.5.
In the system I'm working on, there are several stored procedures which
perform simple selects through different views.
Those views are redefined (drop/create) periodically. DB2 rebinds the
stored procedures that use the views, automatically.
