Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: Users of DB2 Object Comparison Tool          *
*                 who use column defined NOT NULL with         *
*                 no default specified.                        *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A newly added column with NOT NULL but  *
*                      with no default causes ADB27AC data     *
*                      conversion to occur.                    *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: Apply The PTF.                               *
****************************************************************
When columns of this type (NOT NULL with no default) are added,
the data will be unloaded as a constant value which will avoid
an ADB27AC data conversion. Note that DISTINCT and XML data
types will still require a conversion.
