Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• ABEND0C9 when processing physical sequential sort for a DB which
  has many virtual segments and short segment.
  

Local fix

• As a workaround, avoid S0C9 by specifying RECNUM statement.

  ****************************************************************
  ABEND0C9 when processing physical sequential sort for a DB which
  has many virtual segments and short segment.
  HP Load calculates the average segment size for estimating the
  size of sort work. In the above condition, HP Load counts the
  number of virtual segments in the total number of segments for
  the calculation. As a result, the average segment size rounds
  down to zero. The S0C9 occurs because the value is used for
  the division process.
  

Problem conclusion

• HP Load is modified not to count the number of virtual segments
  in the total number of segments for the calculation of the
  average segment size.
