Error description

  • Various data inconsistencies ABEND 04E 00C90101 00C90102
    00C90105 or 00C902xx type abends due to page regression as
    pages were not CASTOUT. Also, after fallback to V9, data
    inconsistencies were found and ABEND04E in DSNIONX2
    ERQUAL5005 type dumps seen. A subsequent review of the DB2 V10
    archive logs showed objects that were GBP-dep in V10 had pages
    not CASTOUT before they became non-GBP-dep. The Customer then
    did a fallback to V9, where the DSNIONX2 5005 abends were seen
    with broken objects found - missing data.

    ****************************************************************
    A new restart token algorithm may produce an incomplete list
    of pages cached in a group buffer pool (GBP). The castout
    procedure using this list may fail to write out all updated
    pages in a GBP. If those pages are purged after castout, the
    updates will be lost.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The castout logic has been modified to not use the new restart
    token algorithm.
