Error description
DDL for sequence (db2look.mimic_sequence.sql) CREATE SEQUENCE "MYSEQ" AS BIGINT MINVALUE 100000000000000000 MAXVALUE 199999999999999999 START WITH 100000000000000000 INCREMENT BY 1 NO CACHE CYCLE NO ORDER; ALTER SEQUENCE "MYSEQ" RESTART WITH 100000000000522496; Steps to reproduce this problem : db2 "ALTER SEQUENCE "MYSEQ" RESTART WITH 10000000000555555" $ db2look -d sample -e | grep 'ALTER SEQUENCE' .. ALTER SEQUENCE "MYSEQ" RESTART WITH 10000000000555556; --- $ db2 "ALTER SEQUENCE "MYSEQ" RESTART WITH 10000000000333333" $ db2look -d sample -e | grep 'ALTER SEQUENCE' ALTER SEQUENCE "MYSEQ" RESTART WITH 10000000000333332; .. Db2look is not handling DECIMAL(31,0) datatype properly. When the sequence is too large, calculations are done incorrectly, and precision is lost.
Local fix
