Error description

  • ABEND0C4 RC0000003B at DSNXRTSC OFFSET00160 can occur for a
    query using CP
    parallelism. This could also cause a lot of xFFFFFBAD storage
    overlay followed by various Db2 abends and then Db2 crash with
    abend S04F.
    
    Reported abends include, but not limited to:

    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    * Apply corrective PTF when available.                         *
    ****************************************************************
    Internal control blocks for large and complex SQL statements
    are processed differently from those of shorter and simple
    SQL statements.  DB2 under-calculated the storage requirement
    of said control blocks for large and complex SQL statements
    undergoing CP parallelism.
    
    Temporary Fix:
    Disable parallelism for the query
    

Problem conclusion

  • DB2 code has been corrected to account for internal block
    variations between large and complex SQL statements undergoing
    CP parallelism.
