DSNB233I csect-name DBNAME database-name SPACENAME space-name INSTANCE instance-number PARTITION partition-number IS IN BASIC PAGE FORMAT AND SHOULD BE CONVERTED TO EXTENDED PAGE FORMAT

Explanation

This message is issued upon a physical open of a table space or index. The specified partition is still in the basic LRSN format and makes Db2 susceptible to outages if this 6-byte limit is exceeded. It is strongly recommended to convert it to the extended LRSN format to prevent the 6-byte limit being exceeded.

csect-name
The name of the control section that issued the message.
database-name
The database name.
space-name
The name of the table space or index space.
intance-number
The instance number.
partition-number
The partition number that remains in 6-byte format.

System action

Processing continues. This message is shown as many as 20 times each time that Db2 is started, and it is not shown when utilities open the page sets. Absence of this message does not imply all table spaces have been converted, but rather no table spaces have been opened in the 6-byte format.

System programmer response

Run the REORG or REBUILD utility to convert the table space or index to 10-byte LRSN format, as described in Converting page sets to the 10-byte RBA or LRSN format.

User response

Notify the system programmer.
