Error description

  • If you use 11.70.FC7W2 or newer version of IBM Informix Server
    and you have set the MAX_FILL_DATA_PAGES parameter to 1 in your
    $ONCONFIG file, the 'oncheck -cD <dbname>:<tabname>' command can
    report the following warning(s) for the tables variable length
    columns:
    
    $ oncheck -cD test:tab1
    
    TBLspace data check for test:informix.tab1
    
    WARNING: data page 0x1 in tablespace 0x300002 appears to be
             more or less full than is indicated in the bitmap.
             Bitmap mode: 0xc, Calculated mode: 0x4.
    Reset the bitmap mode for this page?
    
    You can fix the bitmap mode by answering 'y' to the question
    above or by using 'oncheck -cD test:tab1 -y' command, but later
    you may see the warnings again on the same or different pages.
