IT02015: CREATING MULTIPLE ATTACHED INDEXES ON SAME FIELD WITH ASC/DESC DIFFERENTIATOR RETURNS ERROR 350/108

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Creating an attached index when there is already one existing on
  the same column but with a differentiator of asc or desc will
  return error 350/108.
  
  Example:
  
    create index i1 on t (i asc) in table;
    create index i2 on t (i desc) in table;  <-- error 350 / 108
  returned
  

Local fix

• If "in table" is replaced by "in <dbspace>" for index i2, it
  does work as well as if both "in table" statements are removed,
  making both indexes detached.
  
  Another workaround is to add a filler in declaration of index
  i2:
  
    create index i1 on t (i asc) in table;
    create index i2 on t (i desc, filler) in table;
