Error description
The IDS internal function "explain_sql" is used to create a query plan in XML style which can be processed by third party applications (such as IBM Data Studio) to create a visual explanation of that plan. When calling this function on a HP-UX platform the function only returns 32767 bytes. This is sample of a truncated file: ---------- 8< ---------- 8< ---------- [...] <descriptor id="d34" name="auser. 107_20" type="ids.index"> <datatitle nametitle="NAME">VALUE</datatitle> <data id="0" name="Index Name" group="3"> 107_20</data> <data id="1" name="Index Owner" group="3">auser</data> <data id="2" name="Index Key Length" group="3">1</data> <data id="3" name="Index State" group="3">E</data> <data id="4" name="Index Levels in Btree" group="3">1</data> <data id="5" name="I ---------- >8 ---------- >8 ----------
