Error description

  • Customer migrated one member (HS1A) of a data sharing group
    from Db2 V12 FL510 to Db2 V13 FL M100.
    They left member HS2A running on Db2 V12 runtime code.
    Member HS1A we started up on V13 Runtime code and ran the
    CATMAINT to M100. (CATMAINT UPDATE LEVEL V13R1M100 ).
    .
    All went well, when doing a DISPLAY GROUP DETAIL we could see
    the new catalog level and the code level each member was running
    on as
    we expected. They also saw this message in the Db2 12 HS2A:
    SPT01 INLINE LENGTH INFORMATION NOT AVAILABLE
    REASON 1AF07A90

    ****************************************************************
    DISPLAY GROUP is not properly displaying the SPT01 inline
    length. This can happen in both data sharing and non-data
    sharing in the following scenarios:
    (1) Data sharing - in the lower release in release coexistence
    cases and also in fallback situations.
    (2) Non-data sharing - in release fallback situations.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Db2 code has been changed to address each of the four items
    noted in the Problem Description as follows:
    (1) DISPLAY GROUP output now properly shows the SPT01 INLINE
    LENGTH information as expected.
    (2) The SPT01 information, successfully displayed or not,
    should now only appear in DISPLAY GROUP output once.
    (3) Uninitialized storage is no longer displayed if SPT01
    INLINE LENGTH information cannot be displayed for some reason.
    Instead, the information shown in the REASON, TYPE and NAME
    fields will now contain zeroes, blanks or diagnostic
    information that will help determine what the problem is. This
    should greatly help with the problem diagnosis process in the
    future.
    (4) The Migration Readiness Report output has been changed as
    follows:
    - In data sharing where release coexistence is active,
    members that have already migrated to the next release of Db2
    will now show 'N/A' in the Migration Eligible column. This
    indicates that these members have already migrated to the next
    release of Db2.
    - The MIGRATION READINESS STATUS: readiness-text will now
    display the following: "MIGRATION IN PROGRESS TO DB2 13".
    - The REASON: reason-text will now show the following:
    "ALL REMAINING MEMBERS ARE READY FOR DB2 13".
    The following example shows how the Migration Readiness report
    will look when DISPLAY GROUP with DETAIL is executed on a Db2
    12 member that is in a Db2 12/13 release coexistence data
    sharing group:
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    MIGRATION READINESS REPORT
    --------------------------
    DB2       CODE       SPE      MIGRATION
    MEMBER    LEVEL      APAR     ELIGIBLE
    --------  ---------  -------  ---
    DB2A      V13R1M504  .......  N/A
    DB2B      V12R1M510  PH37108  YES
    MIGRATION READINESS STATUS: GROUP MIGRATION IN PROGRESS TO
    DB2 13
    REASON: ALL REMAINING MEMBERS ARE READY FOR DB2 13
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
