Identifying Db2 Spatial Extender problems

To identify a Db2 Spatial Extender problem, you must determine the cause of the problem.

You can troubleshoot problems with Db2 Spatial Extender in one of the following ways:
  • Using the message information to diagnose the problem.
  • Using the message information returned by the database manager when calling Spatial Extender stored procedures or functions. Depending on the interface that you use, the information consists of a message code in the form of an integer, a message text, or both.
  • Viewing the Db2 administration notification file, which records diagnostic information about errors.
  • For recurring and reproducible Spatial Extender problems, contacting an IBM customer support representative. You might be asked to use the Db2 trace facility to help them diagnose the problem.
