| CR Number | Description |
|---|---|
| 73037 | There is no convenient way to reclaim unneeded space from a database except to drop and recreate that database. |
| 448907 | Adds the PREPARE DATABASE command. This command is very similar to the QUIESCE DATABASE command, with the exception that it does not block write activity during the HOLD phase. The HOLD/RELEASE options can be used to execute a mirror split or snapshot on the database using a certified agent, to create a copy of a database on which transaction logs can be loaded. |
| 464605 | The "enable large pool for load" configuration parameter is added to configure the use of large buffer pools during the recovery phase for LOAD DATABASE and LOAD TRANSACTION commands execution. This configuration parameter will default to 0 if "enable functionality group" is set to 0, and to 1 if "enable functionality group" is set to 1. |
| 480652 | The paths for the cluster devices are not checked to insure they are not reused in the same input session when creating new cluster. |
| 484059 | Cluster failed to start after creation if interfaces path contains "#". |
| 484953 | Sybcluster show instance status does not show correct status if shutdown instance outside sybcluster immediately. |
| 493317 | When quorum device cannot be accessed, running 'show cluster status' will report an inexplicit error "The cluster entry did not contain any servers" |
| 498501 | Sybmigrate - unable to generate index ddl when user\db have same name |
| 500347 | Temporary files are not cleaned up after cluster creation. |
| 542339 | The command, 'diagnose instance', does not report any message if the interfaces file is missing the domain suffix of the machine name. |
| 545716 | Long Running Transaction against an SAP ASE server can prevent the log being truncated, causing risk of data unavailability for DMLs. Improve how this can be managed. |
| 546891 | Permissions on "sysslices" system table remain unchanged when "GRANT DEFAULT PERMISSIONS ON SYSTEM TABLES" or "REVOKE DEFAULT PERMISSIONS ON SYSTEM TABLES" SQL commands are executed. |
| 548593 | Updating a TEXT value into a proxy TEXT column using the value from a local TEXT column results in garbage being inserted. |
| 565321 | In parallel query mode, monProcessWorkerThread.ThreadsActive, monProcess.NumChildren, monSysWorkerThreads.PlansAltered and monProcessStatement.PlansAltered are always 0. |
| 578515 | sp_sysmon appl_and_login does not show the detail of activity by application name and login name. |
| 590190 | If a table is on an inner side of a join, the 'UsedCount' of the table could be incremented multiple times of 'OptSelectCount' of the table in monOpenObjectActivity table. |
| 609692 | When dumping and loading databases containing functional indexes between specific platforms, dropping indexes on the new server can fail with a syntax error message. |
| 618245 | UPDATE STATISTICS on a proxy table with a specified column may return error 12814 - "Failed to write information in SYSTABSTATS." |
| 618451 | The message "dbid < dbid > objid < objid > open failed" may be reported when running DBCC EXTENTZAP or EXTENTCHECK on a table that is missing entries in sysobjects. |
| 625217 | UPDATE STATISTICS command on a proxy table writes the wrong page count for a row having indid 0 or 1 into systabstats system table if the ASE page size is more than 2K. |
| 639813 | Execution of stored procedure 'sp_renamedb' from read-only database results in a 3906 error, "Attempt to BEGIN TRANSACTION in database failed because database is READ ONLY." Message should reflect that "You must be in master in order to run stored procedure for read-only database." |
| 643556 | Cross platform transaction load is not supported, but it is allowed and it may result in Msg 695, Level 21 "An attempt was made to read logical page ' < pageid > ' for database ' < db_name > ' ... Wrong logical page '2433379939' was broughtinto cache"; Cross platform load in an archive database is also not supported but it is allowed and may result in Msg 15760 - "Invalid dump header when loading the database with ID ' < n > '.". |
| 645898 | In rare circumstances, after configuring a big data cache or a large stack size, SAP ASE might implicitly shut down following a JavaVM crash while executing a Java query. The message EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION or 'ExceptionCode: c0000005' will be reported in the SAP ASE error log. |
| 652328 | TEXT/IMAGE page chains are not deleted properly from sysattributes when REORG REBUILD is called on a table with TEXT and IMAGE data. This can result in reduction of unreserved/available space in the database. |
| 653277 | An UPDATE query running in a batch that includes a CREATE INDEX or UPDATE/DELETE STATISTICS or an UPDATE query running simultaneously with a workload that involves CREATE INDEX or UPDATE/DELETE STATISTICS may lead to data inconsistency. |
| 656902 | If a query contains a join between partitioned tables and one of the partitioned tables degenerates to a single partition through dynamic partition elimination and there is a CIS table in the query, then a SEGV could occur in the PartNodeInfo::collocatedSite() method. |
| 664848 | KBA 2011340. In rare circumstances, the message "current process infected with 11 (SIGSEGV)" in the module 'ind__get_sysindrow()' together with a stack trace which includes the modules 'getindexname()' and 'CgGenLava::CGConsScanOp()' may be reported in the SAP ASE error log. This may happen when a statement, using temporary user tables or tables created in the same batch or stored procedure and with indexes defined, is being compiled before execution. |
| 665284 | The message, "Current process infected with signal 11" followed by a stack trace that includes the module Partitions::initHintsForDegree() may be reported when a remote procedure is executed with the recompile option. |
| 666239 | The limit for cache partitioning has been extended from 128 to 256. |
| 666597 | New Feature Request ... add indicator to monCachedProcedures to show active entries |
| 668638 | The sp_opt_querystats stored procedure reports error number 17077 indicating that the optimizer diagnostic results were incomplete and does not generate any output. |
| 670273 | In some circumstances, the Operations value in the monOpenObjectActivity MDA table does not reflect the actual number of table accesses. |
| 672255 | In some circumstance, the CPU usage of ASE might increase to near 100% after turning on the “plan text pipe active” option. |
| 672606 | In some cases the output from the sp_opt_querystats stored procedure would be formatted incorrectly due to lines being broken in the middle of words or due to missing letters or characters. |
| 674535 | Products: ASE 15.5 ESD#3 SQL Advantange 12.5.3 EBF 12338 DBISQL version 11.01, build 2430 Problem Description: Customer reports that DBISQL does not report as much detailed message compared with SQL Advantage. Since SQL Advantage is deprecated customer is requesting FR to be implemented: |
| 674632 | Enhance index scan perforamce on little-endian platforms if the index includes large mount of duplicated keys. |
| 675791 | Enhance sp_rename stored procedure to rename data and index partitions. |
| 676122 | ASE does not respond and appears to hang when invalid packets are sent to it. |
| 678527 | KBA 2016211. In some long running ASE servers, an 8203 error - "Expected to find the descriptor for object < objid > in database < db_num > in < state > state." might be raised with crt_main in the stack trace while creating a temporary table. There will be an information message "INFO: Total Object Ids in temporary database generated: < total id count > , LWPs generated: < LWP id count > " printed for every 100 million object ids generated |
| 680899 | sybcluster should have a way to back off incomplete removal or alternately the CR 680891 should provide complete instructions for recovery from errors during "drop instance". |
| 682354 | Allows stored procedures which reference temp tables created outside the procedure to not require recompilation for every execution. This was previously supported by trace flag 299. |
| 683127 | DDL is now replicated within user stored procedures. |
| 683762 | On Windows platforms, preupgrade eligibility test fails when using sysconfig.exe to upgrade ASE. |
| 683882 | Excessive I/O to quorum devices is observed when SCC is up and cluster is down. |
| 684459 | On AIX platform, the mapping of addresses to function names in SAP ASE stack traces has been improved. This will provide a superior mapping when the address is in a shared library. |
| 687372 | A 697 error, "An attempt was made to fetch logical page < pagenum > for database < dbname > ....", during transaction rollback, if the transaction is doing some DMLs to upgrade row lock to table lock. |
| 689004 | Setting the configuration parameter 'send doneinproc tokens' to zero, can cause the global variable @@rowcount to report an incorrect value inside a stored procedure or trigger. |
| 691074 | sybmigrate: initial login screen doesn't see servers named with "query" |
| 691582 | In rare cases, a DUMP TRAN command is incorrectly allowed following a DUMP DATABASE command during which a partially-logged command like SELECT INTO was active that also commits some time towards the end of the DUMP DATABASE command. The partially logged operation will be lost when the database dump and transaction log are loaded. |
| 692237 | Starting the Backup Server with -D4096 will suppress messages "Attempting DSync I/O for device ' < value > '." from being reported in the Backup Server error log during the execution of a DUMP DATABASE command. |
| 692509 | sp_sysmon 'cache wizard' got Msg 3606 "Arithmetic overflow occurred" |
| 693775 | Job Scheduler is enhanced to execute job from startdate:starttime to enddate:endtime under new schedule property 'continuous_run'. |
| 694495 | The command DBCC SETTRUNC('ltm', 'end') extends the transaction log with one page before setting the Secondary Truncation Point to the new end of the log so as to avoid unwanted data replication. |
| 694912 | Exception is raised from localize command in sybcluster if ASE-15_0/locales contains unnecessary files/dirs. |
| 697129 | Supporting Lock Remastering for SAP ASE Cluster Edition. When the master assignment is set to affinity mode, the masters will gradually get re-allocated to the instances that initiates the lock convert requests, if “enable lock remastering” is set to 1(ON) in the configuration file. By default, “enable lock remastering” is set to 0 (OFF). It is not recommended to set “enable lock remastering” to 1 (ON) for badly partitioned cases. |
| 700227 | Reduce additional logging done on page compressed DMLs for replication support, trigger support, and online utilities support. |
| 701608 | Signal 11 in LeSarg::mapSarg is reported due to incorrect classification of Transitive Closure predicates, at optimization time. |
| 701705 | New monitors have been added to collect each engine resource's Engine Local Caches (ELC) performance. |
| 702725 | In circumstances whereby the select list of an INSERT SELECT with ORDER BY does not include the 'order by' columns, it is possible that the optimizer will favor a non-matching index scan using an index with the order by column(s) as opposed to a more efficient plan using a matching index scan for one or more of the filter predicates. A new optcriteria cr702725 has been introduced for this change. Use "set cr702725 1" to turn on the change and "set cr702725 0" to turn it off. |
| 702907 | In specific circumstances it is possible to receive a 2601 error on execution of a stored procedure. The issue is much more likely to happen with 'deferred name resolution' enabled. This can happen when a stored procedure has been initially created, then for the 'first' execution, multiple concurrent connections all run the procedure at the 'same'time. If running with 'deferred name resolution' enabled at create procedure time, the error is much more likely to occur. It could also happen in circumstances where the query tree needs to be recreated from text as in after the ASE is upgraded. |
| 703134 | ASE provides inaccurate estimation for 'kernel resource memory' configuration parameter. |
| 703607 | Backup Server is enhanced to provide Multithread support needed for Tivoli Storage Manager options such as LAN-FREE. This support is off by default. It can be turned on by using the new –D8192 option during Backup Server startup. For example: ${BACKUPSERVER} -SSYB_BACKUP -I$SYBASE/interfaces -M${SYBMULTBUF} -D8192& |
| 704671 | While executing large amount of dynamically prepared statements we could find DBT_SPIN as still contentious. |
| 704744 | Log an informational message in the error log when memory allocation with Linux 'hugepages' succeeds. Add a configuration option 'enable HugePages' to control allocation as follows, with HugePages if available else regular pages, only with HugePages and fail if not available, only with Regular Pages. |
| 704899 | Add new configuration option 'enable HugePages' for Linux to control whether to boot ASE with HugePages and 'enable ISM' for Solaris to control whether to boot ASE with ISM |
| 705516 | Feature request to improve sp_configure to perform kernel resource memory consistancy checks. |
| 706543 | sybmigrate and DDLGen fail when there is "&" in the object name |
| 708143 | asehostname() can return null or truncated values when the hostname is greater than 30 characters. |
| 708830 | sp_dump_history returns error 17152, version missing or invalid, when dump history file does not exist. |
| 709060 | When creating a cluster or adding an instance, sybcluster cannot detect invalid device name immediately after it is entered. |
| 709090 | Release DBISQL 16 for ASE. |
| 709474 | A new SpinlockSlotID column has been added to the monSpinlockActivity MDA table. This column provides a unique identifier for each spinlock in the current ASE server. This ID is not persistent across servers or restarts of the server. |
| 709754 | It is possible for a spid to terminate and a stack trace to appear in the SAP ASE error log containing the functions memset and bi__xml_query/bi_xmlextract. This can happen under heavy usage when the session heap memory pool has become starved. |
| 710057 | The timing and IO metrics in monCachedStatement for running queries were unchanged until the query completed. Four new columns have been added to provide intermediate updates. The new columns are called TotalLIO, TotalPIO, TotalCPUTime and TotalElapsedTime. |
| 710300 | Deploy plugin raises an error but reports that it succeed |
| 711106 | OPTDIAG and sp_showoptstats has been enhanced to support Precomputed Resultsets. |
| 711248 | Error 14575, "CREATE TABLE WITH COMPRESSION is not supported for in-memory database", followed by error 11050, "Adaptive Server cannot process this ALTER TABLE statement due to one or more preceding errors. If there are no preceding errors, please contact Sybase Technical Support.", and error 11934, "REORG REBUILD of table 'tabname' failed due to an internal error. Please contact SYBASE Technical Support", may be reported when running 'reorg rebuild' command on table which has data or LOB compressedion defined after user is bind to temporary in-memory database. |
| 711328 | Using sybcluster to add an instance in interactive mode failed. |
| 711928 | sp_sysmon would report a 265 error, "Insufficient result space for explicit conversion of SMALLINT value '100' to a VARCHAR field" if ASE is configured with more than 100 engines. |
| 712125 | If there are more than 32 columns used in an UPDATE STATISTICS command, either explicitly or implicitly through the auto_temptable_stats feature, then there is a possibility of a stacktrace. |
| 712461 | If multi-column syntax is used with update statistics tabname (colname1, colname2,...) using out_of_range {on | off | default }, then the assignment of out_of_range behavior may not be associated with the correct columns. |
| 712480 | The LAVA based index creation is enhanced to support the case where the index leading columns are duplicated. |
| 712897 | sp_bindcache information is missing from DDLGen output. |
| 712957 | sybcluster will fail to connect to the cluster if duplicated agents are specified. |
| 712970 | Enhancement is made to sp_placeobject system procedure to support partitions. |
| 712996 | sp_showoptstats output has been changed for the < statsOutRan > tag to have a value of "on" if the "using out_of_range on" phrase was used in update statistics, and "off" if the "using out_of_range off" phrase was used, and will not be printed if "default" is in effect. Previously "true" was printed when "on" or "off" was used. |
| 713074 | Monitor server has been retired since 15.7 GA but sybcluster still contained the operations for configuring monitor server. These operation options have now been removed. |
| 713189 | If the Cluster Editions is configured with both backup or xp servers, then adding an instance with an xml input file may fail. |
| 713464 | Error 1503 may occur when index is created with LAVA based index creation if the number of distict index value is not greater than CONSUMERS number. |
| 713572 | A 12319 error followed by a stack trace that includes the modules LeMergeStmtOp::_LeOpClose() and dol_def_update() may be reported when a MERGE statement is using cloned plans. |
| 713638 | LIKE predicate optimizer estimations may be incorrect when UTF-8 is used. Optcriteria cr713638 is added to correct this issue. |
| 714330 | Add functionality to the LOAD ... WITH LISTONLY=CREATE_SQL command to include the various database options (applied with sp_dboption) and attributes (applied with CREATE and ALTER DATABASE) of the source database, in the generated SQL. |
| 714773 | In a multi-engine ASE running on the Unix platform, the tracefile for the spid (created using 'set tracefile < path > for < spid > ') is truncated in pre 15.7, while the tracefile is not populated post 15.7 in process kernel mode, when the spid being traced is affiniated to an engine other than the one which created the tracefile initially (This can happen if the engine that created the tracefile is offline). |
| 715203 | DBCC CHECKSTORAGE does not detect LOB compression flag inconsistencies in the TIPSA. With DBCC CHECKTABLE and DBCC CHECKDB these types of inconsistencies were already being reported with message 15960. |
| 715228 | Wrong result could happen when referencing a non-correlated scalar aggregate view at the inner side of an OUTER JOIN. |
| 715312 | Use of online utilities like 'reorg rebuild with online' might lead to incorrect used/unused counts in the OAM for the table. This is reflected by a later 'dbcc checkalloc' on the table reporting error messages 7949 and 7940. |
| 716262 | On HPIA64 platforms, ASE may report error 16747, "The 'enable hp posix async i/o' configuration option is only available on the HPUX platform. This option is not valid on the current platform." if 'number of disk tasks' is set as larger than 1 when 'enable hp posix async i/o' is enabled. |
| 716645 | During an UPDATE command on a table that has in-row LOB columns defined, ASE may move some of these columns from in-row to off-row or vice-versa if the size of a datarow exceeds configured limits. When such a table has a datarow with an off-row LOB column that is not explicitly updated, ASE may not log this column data correctly. This will result in replication failing if this column is marked as always_replicate. |
| 717026 | KBA 2093231. Improve spinlock efficiency on Solaris SPARC platform. |
| 718398 | Update statistics options are 'sticky', meaning previous values which are explicitly set will continue to be used for future update statistics and create index commands on the same table if these options are not specified. These sticky options are: step count (using step values); histogram_tuning_factor; sampling; hashing, partial_hashing, no_hashing. This CR implements a configuration parameter "enable sticky statistics" to control statistics stickiness server wide. The default for "enable sticky statistics" is 1, which matches existing sticky statistics behavior. To turn off sticky statistics, use: sp_configure “enable sticky statistics” , 0 |
| 718658 | A signal 11 (SIGSEGV) error occured in kmuxtskGetThreadpool() while running sp_sysmon. This is a timing-related issue that is not easy to reproduce. It occurs only on a server that is running in threaded kernel mode. |
| 718733 | Support a 'WITH RECOMPILE' clause at the statement level. |
| 718741 | Signal 11 in bufdlink() *also reporting ups_nosort_init_prestat() & us_allocate_stat_proc_hdr() * may appear in the error log along with the server shutting down. This can happen when there is a worktable used by an update statistics command that resides on an in-memory tempdb (IMDB) |
| 719212 | Applications running against ASE on Solaris platform (SPARC and x64) in threaded mode may experience poor performance (response time and throughput). Analysis of sp_sysmon outputs and MDA tables may show high I/O Busy% and high wait times on disk-related events. Solution requires installation of OS patch for Oracle Bug 16054425 and setting ASE configuration parameter "solaris async i/o mode" to 1. This issue only affects ASE on the Solaris platforms. |
| 719374 | When changing the character set to a multibyte character set and running DBCC FIX_TEXT for the table with TEXT columns, the DBCC CHECKTABLE will fail with error 7951, "Data size mismatch while checking a text value". |
| 721270 | Immediate PRS creation with a LIKE clause throws a misleading error message that involves a builtin clause, because LIKE is internally converted to a BUILTIN operator. |
| 721403 | The status field in sp_helpdb output does not give any indication for temporary databases created with durability of "no_recovery" and normal temporary databases. |
| 721482 | sp_configure "o/s file descriptors" may show a larger value than the actual number of file descriptors as indicated in the error log. |
| 721543 | When using a resource file with sybmigrate, despite having plenty of room on the repository device specified, sybmigrate does not create the work database at the size specified in the resource file. |
| 721737 | When updating a column to have NULL value and an immediate refresh pre-computed result set (materialized view) exists which selects that column, the session will be disconnected unexpectedly and a stack trace that includes the module memmove() will be reported in the error log. |
| 721799 | The user usedb_user should not be allowed to create any objects. |
| 721809 | ASE at times sends extra TDS DONE packet for ct_cancel CT-Lib call. |
| 721824 | When the following is true: (1) the statement cache is on and (2) a dynamic prepared SQL statement containing a abstract plan clause is executed and (3) the same statement is prepared and executed by another ASE session, then the entry in the statement cache that was created by the first execution is not found when the dynamic prepare command is executed in the second session. As a result, a new LWP is created by the second session. |
| 721887 | With partitioned tables, some query plans may choose the MERGE UNION ALL operator, rather than Dynamic Partition Elimination. |
| 722058 | sybmigrate fails with the error, "Attempt to insert duplicate key row in object 'sysattributes' with unique index 'csysattributes'" at set up stage (sybmigrate -m setup). |
| 722240 | ASE Agent Plugin does not automatically detect the ASE error log file location changes. |
| 722535 | On Windows 2012, using syconfig, the backup server does not start when using the default backup server name. |
| 722539 | DDLGen does not support object dependency export. |
| 722591 | Execution of a stored procedure sometimes raises message 10334, "Permission related internal error was encountered". The statement being executed involves many UNIONs selecting from derived tables based on a temp table and the server is configured for multiple tempdbs. |
| 722610 | Configure server using different account |
| 722673 | The execution of the command "DROP PRECOMPUTED RESULT SET < prs_name > " on the primary database cannot be replicated into the standby database successfully. |
| 722777 | ASE does not respond and appears to hang when certain invalid packets are sent to it. |
| 722801 | Support is now provided for "high domain" (i.e. > 65535 unique values) parallel create index HASH based statistics gathering on minor attributes. |
| 722823 | Different behaviour for ISNULL on a MAX() or MIN() aggregate of a character column may be observed when statement cache is used with esql. |
| 722856 | In an HA environment when a role that contains a role activation predicate is dropped on the primary server the secondary server does not remove the predicate metadata. |
| 722867 | On Windows machines having multiple network interfaces i.e. both IPv4 and IPv6, ASE may fail to boot Job Scheduler with error, "JS: Failed to connect on socket" whereas JS Agent log indicates that JA Agent is listening with message, "SYB_JSAGENT waiting for connection". |
| 722898 | Under some circumstances, a 4720 error "Cannot truncate table '%.*s' because there are one or more isolation level 0 scans, or REORG command, active on the table." may be reported while a temporray is being dropped. Such temporary table is found to have a dlevel0cnt = 12. |
| 722902 | DDLGen generates data partition names instead of index partition names in the index partition clause for a clustered index on an all pages locked table . Also the semantic order of partitions in the index partition clause for both clustered and non clustered indexes is not correct. Also if index partition names are system generated, then they are not generated in the partition spec , when -XPN option is specified |
| 723015 | The backupserver error message "3.27.2.1: Invalid RPC sequence at RPC as_cmd." followed by "5.7.2.7: RPC ('as_cmd') execution failed." may be reported when a LOAD DATABASE is executed and the backupserver name "hostname:portnumber" cannot be resolved correctly. |
| 723226 | After changing the owner of a replicated user table while DDL is not setup for replication, RepAgent may replicate DML commands on that table using the wrong owner name. |
| 723259 | In rare circumstances, a task may hang when LIKE clause or patindex builtin operator is used on columns which contain LOB data marked as compressed. |
| 723356 | A segmentation fault in tally_fetch() after a 249 error may occur during BCP IN due to invalid column default. Previous CR number is 552227 and the fix is under trace flag -T2781. Please turn on the trace flag to check column default data type during table creation time. |
| 723437 | A new database option "deallocate first text page", and a new configuration value 2 of table attribute "dealloc_first_txtpg", are provided for tables having TEXT/IMAGE/UNITEXT off-row storage columns, to control whether to deallocate the first text page after updating off-row LOB value from non-NULL to NULL, or whether to allocate a first text page when updating LOB value from NULL to NULL. |
| 723566 | The audit option sproc_perms can not be configured with sp_audit. |
| 723588 | Under certain circumstances, sp_monitorconfig 'number of locks' reports Max_Used as the total number of locks configured in SDC. |
| 723602 | A 156 error, "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'default'" may be reported when executing ALTER TABLE MOVE PARTITION to 'default' segment. |
| 723672 | An 806 error, "Could not find virtual page for logical page < pagenum > in database < dbname > " may be reported when executing DBCC CHECKTABLE. |
| 723847 | SELECT INTO and INSERT SELECTs that use UNION statements terminated by a UNION ALL statement may fail with a signal 11 and stack trace that includes the module tree*GcElement::GcGetVar(). This tends to happen if the table being inserted into contains any identity columns that are not explicitly generated in the UNION ALL query. |
| 723872 | If there is an UNIQUE index with IGNORE_DUP_KEY option on a partitioned table with many partitions such as 60, the BCP loading performance of OLD DATA may be much slower than that of NEW DATA. NEW DATA means most rows of it will be loaded into the table. OLD DATA means most rows of it will be ignored because they have been loaded into the table. |
| 724023 | The message "current process infected with 11" in the module 'bufreserve' together with a stack trace which includes the modules 'drop_al_dbid' and 'alterdb' may be reported in the error log when an ALTER DATABASE LOG OFF command is executed to shrink this database log space. |
| 724175 | The Remote Backup Server name is extended to allow the use of IPV6 hostnames with domain name. |
| 724343 | When configuring RepAgent to use a security mechanism, the RepAgent Thread may fail to start and report a 9210 error. Moreover, RepAgent is using the ASE server name instead of the ASE principal name. |
| 724472 | In rare circumstances, recreation of in-memory databases during start up of SAP ASE may hang when there are more than one in-memory databases with the same template database. SAP ASE can still be used, but an attempt to use the in-memory databases that are not recreated will result in an error 962, "Database with ID ' < value > ' is not available. Please try again later." being reported. |
| 724593 | In some rare cases, a UNION query could return wrong result resulting in truncation. |
| 724603 | When executing a JOIN involving a proxy table, and the optimizer chooses GROUPINSERTING for the NESTED LOOP JOIN plan, the ordering information in the query is lost and the result is not ordered as expected. |
| 724815 | sp_config_dump stored procedure will now display usage information if invoked as sp_config_dump help or sp_config_dump 'help'. |
| 724843 | Signal 11 in OmniQuickPass::targetlist()could occur for SQL statement with subquery when show_transformed_sql is on. |
| 724959 | When a database is loaded, the dump history file does not show any record for it and hence it is not possible to generate the dump sequence for this database. |
| 724990 | In 15.x, under the default isolation level (Level 1), DELETEs/UPDATEs involving JOINs and/or correlated SUBQUERY could cause more number of exclusive locks to be acquired even when the qualifying number of rows are much less. |
| 725065 | DBCC SERVERLIMITS displays a wrong value for the limit 'Max database device size'. |
| 725140 | In some rare cases, running queries involving SQLUDF could lead to stacktrace in cpysqludf(). |
| 725195 | The monThread MDA table should list all ASE threads, however, on Windows platforms, the ASE clock thread is not listed in this table. |
| 725209 | ASE on Windows may report "LAST CHANCE EXCEPTION HANDLER on OS thread id < threadID > ...A SERIOUS UNHANDLED EXCEPTION HAS OCCURRED SERVER MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE" with kcierrfmt() on the stack during shutdown when the server is forcefully shutdown, for example through CTRL-BREAK. |
| 725315 | The VERIFY option for the DUMP and LOAD commands does not give the user any indication of whether errors were found or not. The errors are currently reported only in the backupserver errorlog. |
| 725318 | The dataserver gets a segmentation violation when dropping a login while the dataserver configuration for 'number of open databases' is less than the actual number of databases defined in sysdatabases. The segmentation violation is followed by a 905 error, “Unable to allocate a DBTABLE descriptor to open database 'dbname'. Close or drop another database before opening this one, or ask your System Administrator to raise the configuration parameter 'number of open databases'” |
| 725376 | Hit error 806 when running shrink database and reorg defrag concurrently. |
| 725608 | When resource limits is activated and a maximum transaction elapsed time is set, in CHAINED mode, a transaction is not rolled back after the specified elapsed time limit is exceeded. |
| 725661 | The performance of the rollback of a skewed transaction, that is, a transaction that has bursts of activity separated by periods of inactivity, is unnecessarily slow. |
| 725667 | Miscellaneous enhancements to the performance of boot time, LOAD DATABASE and LOAD TRAN recovery including better performance in undoing long-running (incomplete) transactions i.e. those that have bursts of activity separated by periods of inactivity. |
| 725669 | New feature that reduces the amount of recovery time during LOAD DATABASE at the expense of increasing the time taken by DUMP DATABASE. Data that is changed while DUMP DATABASE is active is included in the dump so that the dump has more up-to-date contents. This is enabled using sp_configure 'optimize dump for faster load', < percentage > . Changed data is included in the database dump when the percentage of database data changed during DUMP DATABASE is more than < percentage > . This defaults to 0 in which no changed data is copied, and there is no reduction in the recovery time of LOAD DATABASE. |
| 725708 | The KILL WITH STATUSONLY command has been enhanced and now provides information on the amount of log space scanned and to be scanned for a full transaction rollback. It differentiates different types of rollbacks, and reports a subset of information in cases where the rollback is not a full transaction rollback. |
| 725767 | On big-endian platforms, queries involving BIGINT columns in MDA tables may return wrong results. |
| 725858 | A 15095 error, "An invalid 'data row id' value was found in first text page of a text/image/unitext column." may be reported when running DBCC CHECKTABLE or DBCC CHECKDB on replicated Data Only Locked tables that have TEXT columns with values on forwarded rows. |
| 725864 | Improve "ddlgen" performance for generating ddl for schema objects |
| 725872 | Print extra information for home location of DOL forwarded rows in DBCC PAGE output. |
| 725885 | srvbuildres cannot configure ASE when the available free space on the disk is very large. |
| 725956 | If a previous Job Scheduler configuration failed, syconfig.exe and sybatch.exe do not re-install the ASE-15_0/scripts/installjsdb script in a rerun. |
| 725998 | Running ins_syn_sql on a 2K page ASE may lead to the log segment being full. |

| 726379 | KBA 2114463. A 11051 error, "ALTER TABLE ' < table_name > ' failed. Table is currently being used by one or more other tasks." may be reported when a REORG REBUILD command is run while another process concurrently runs a SELECT query on the same table at isolation level read uncommitted. Following this error and while the SELECT query continues to execute, any process that attempts to reference this table will fail mistakenly with an error such as 17461 "Object does not exist in this database.". |
| 726439 | Under some rare conditions, if there is a HASH AGGREGATE operator above a JOIN operator, wrong query results may occur. |
| 726551 | DDLGen does not extract DDLs correctly when stored procedures are grouped. |
| 726760 | sp_helpsegment reports wrong used_cnt after shrink database. |
| 726763 | The command ALTER DATABASE LOG OFF can result in the error 5057 ("The free space counts for the log are incorrect ...") being raised if the database has been loaded from a database dump where the command ALTER DATABASE LOG ON was run initially to extend the log. |
| 726770 | In rare cases of extreme heavy loading, it is possible that BCP/SELECT INTO a big table might lose allocation page entries from the OAM. |

If core dumps are enabled on the platform, a core file is generated from JS Agent that contains the function sybcsi_mem_free() on the stack. |
| 727277 | Auditinit may fail to add devices on space larger than 1 TB. |
| 727310 | The message "current process infected with 11" in the module 'th_curunreservedpgs' may be reported when a session executes a SELECT statement that uses the T-SQL function "curunreservedpgs" while another session is in the process of extending the size of the current database with ALTER DATABASE command. |
| 727475 | If the user is granted system roles indirectly through a user defined role, execution of sp_addthreshold fails with error message 10353 "You must have any of the following role(s) to execute this command/procedure: ' < names > ' . Please contact a user with the appropriate role for help." |

| 727762 | Query with long IN list might cause stack corruption. |
| 727816 | sp_downgrade 'downgrade' will fail at step 990 with a 137 error, "Must declare variable '@show_'". |
| 727846 | The APFPercentage value in the monCachePool MDA table may report incorrect value. |
| 727884 | Downgrade to versions lower than 15.7 ESD#2 will not remove the predid column from sysprotects.csysprotects. sp_fixindex or dbcc reindex will not change the index to the pre 15.7 ESD#2 definition. |
| 727887 | Trace flag 364 support added for ASE 15.0 which uses the range density instead of the total density for optimizer costing when constant sarg values are unknown. Trace flag 16982 is created which uses the total density instead of the computed join histogram density. If trace flag 364 and 16982 are both set, then the sarg density will be used for the join. |
| 728027 | In rare cases, the TRANSFER TABLE command may skip exporting an updated row if a target table is a Datapage or Datarow Locked table and it has forwarded rows or may hang up if a target table is a Datapage or Datarow Locked table and it has forwarded rows and large I/O buffer pools are configured. |
| 728157 | Auditinit may a core dump if the "LANG" environment variable is not set correctly. |
| 728173 | When inserting data into a table containing LOB columns and ASE happens to run out of log space, the message "Space available in the log segment has fallen critically low in database < dbname > . All future modifications to this database will be aborted until the log is successfully dumped and space becomes available" followed by a stack trace that includes the module logmodify() may be reported in the error log. |
| 728364 | KBA 1857851. An 806 error, "Could not find virtual page for logical page < pagenum > in database < dbname > " may be reported when executing a stored procedure whose query plan is cached. |
| 728419 | DDLGen does not generate the partition name and segment information for a hash partitioned All Pages Locked table with a clustered index. Only the number of partitions are generated in the DDLGen output. |

| 730280 | 12308 error with delete or update against table in a query with distinctness e.g. joining to a distinct view or distinct derived table, and exists subquery, a union view or union in a derived table. changes associated with optcriteria cr669847 are enabled by default, but previous behavior (i.e. turn on fix only if optcriteria cr669847 is on) can be obtained by using trace flag 16987 |
| 730281 | The sense of Trace Flag 7773 has been inverted. Use of Trace Flag 7773 now disables the fix for CR 653511, which is on by default, ie, if a stored procedure undergoes recompilation, and the procedure makes assumptions regarding the session's state (ie session environment settings), the resulting recompiled plan can be significantly different than the original. This fix is now disabled when Trace Flag 7773 is on. |
| 730354 | sp_sysmon can return incorrect CPU metrics. |

| 730656 | Cache bindings may be ignored if a 'strict' database recovery order is specified. |
| 730673 | The PCI Memory management layer is enhanced to better service memory allocation requests for ASE tasks executing JAVA operations. The layer now makes a better decision from where to allocate the requested memory. It either uses the PCI Fragment memory pool for end-user coded objects, or the O/S system run-time for JavaVM internal operations. |
| 730787 | CREATE LOGIN does not check if the login name already exists before calling sp_extrapwdchecks. This can cause sp_extrapwdchecks to update information stored for the existing login. |
| 730807 | While using the partition_name builtin on multiple objects, the active objects could be recycled resulting in an information message, "Increase the config parameter 'number of open partitions' to avoid descriptor reuse.

| 731171 | An arithmetic overflow error may be reported by the function sp_f_getval when sp_spaceused is executed against large tables. |
| 731179 | The recovery redo pass unnecessarily attempts to fix problems with deallocations and reservations for some committed transactions in cases where there was a long-running transaction at the time of the last checkpoint. |
| 731354 | A signal 11 occurs in the function collectMonCSInfo when a query is executed on the monCachedStatement MDA table and the statement cache contains a statement that was created with a user-defined optimization goal. |
| 731372 | On tables with indexes, heavy insert activities can lead to 1295 errors, "Unconditional lock request for table or page was made while holding a latch". |
| 731437 | DUMP DATABASE with verify[=header | full] options and LOAD DATABASE with verify[only][=header | full] options commands have been enhanced to detect a mismatch between the page header and tail timestamps for Data Only Locked tables. |
| 731468 | sp_versioncrack returns NULL as ESD, with new ASE version strings. |
| 731531 | Enhancement is made to use less SYSTYPES scans when creating table. |
| 731617 | KBA 1827181. When DUMP DATABASE or DUMP TRANSACTION is run to a tape device, if the tape device configuration file ‘backup_tape.cfg’ exists, ASE will not be able to read it and the dump will fail. The Backup Server will report the error, "The format of the device configuration file < $SYBASE > /backup_tape.cfg is invalid. Remove the configuration file and reconfigure the device by issuing a DUMP with the INIT qualifier. Return code = 0". |
| 731718 | When a character set conversion is required for very long string input ( > 255 character), for example converting client Windows code page 1252 to a server using code page 850, if the input string had a character unconvertible to the server character set, the connection would be inappropriately killed (with a stack trace), in addition to the issuance of the server conversion error message. |
| 731753 | If ALTER TABLE is used to add a NOT MATERIALIZED column < c2 > with a default, then another nullable column < c3 > is added to the table and REORG REBUILD the table, a query to the table will also assign the default to the column < c3 > . |
| 731758 | When executing UPDATE STATISTICS with an object name that contains unusual characters, the command may fail with an internal error. |
| 731769 | In case of an exception, SAP ASE hits an error 1265 while aborting / rolling back the transaction. Abort or rollback of the transaction may happen because of some internal / external error. Error: 1265, Severity: 20, State: 1 An illegal attempt was made to release an invalid lock or a lock that is not owned by the process family. |
| 731783 | The message, "An internal memory management error has occurred. Error code: Invalid slot id.", followed by a stack trace involving the modules mda_exec() and mda_populate_monTask() may be reported when querying table monTask with clause KTID=0. |
| 731808 | If a LIKE predicate is used, then optimizer estimates for keys for a limiting index scan may be incorrect if a VARCHAR variable is used for the pattern match. This is especially true when there are no pattern matching characters used e.g. r.a LIKE "ABC". optcriteria CR731808 can be used to correct the optimizer estimate issue. Command line trace flag 16965 will also enable the fix. |
| 731818 | The Backup Server is enhanced to perform consistency checks on All Pages Locked (APL) and Data Only Locked (DOL) data pages during DUMP DATABASE execution. If an error is detected on a page, the page is reread for validation. These checks will be performed if DUMP DATABASE is executed using WITH VERIFY option. Alternatively, start up the backup server with boot time trace flag -D64, or use the run time trace flag SYB_BACKUP...qatraceon 8, to enable these checks by default. |
| 731874 | A 15432 error, "A validation check failed when Adaptive Server decrypted an encryption key. This error may indicate an incorrect password" is raised when a user with login association of a key executes a stored procedure that accesses a column that is encrypted with the key. |

| 732777 | Under some circumstances, a 4720 error "Cannot truncate table '%.*s' because there are one or more isolation level 0 scans, or REORG command, active on the table." may be reported while a temporray is being dropped. Such temporary table is found to have a dlevel0cnt = 12. |
| 732921 | A 8201 error, "Keep count of descriptor (objid=14, dbid= < value > ) was expected to be 1. Instead 0 was found" followed by a stack trace that includes the module 'des__unkeep' may be raised if ASE fails to allocate space for either SYSGAMS or SYSDAMS. |
| 732995 | Sometimes Procedure Cache ELC (Engine Local Cache) for some of the engines does not get configured during engine boot, which leads to Procedure cache ELC not getting used on the engine and thus leads to contention on the rproccache_spin spinlock. This condition can be detected using the ASE errorlog. If an engine is brought online but does not have the message "Proc header memory allocated < nn > pages for engine < engine_id > local cache" for that engine then the Procedure Cache ELC is not properly configured for that engine. |
| 733051 | If the number of system roles of target server is more than source server's, after running symigrate -m migrate, sybmigrate will drop from sysusers those roles that are 'new' in the target server. This issue can specially be seen when users are migrating from ASE 12.5.4 to ASE 15.7.x |
| 733146 | In rare cases, the message "Invalid column length" may be reported in the ASE errorlog to indicate there are issues in the index creation when creating an index on a Page Compressed table. |
| 733194 | Incorrect disk activity may be reported by sp_sysmon_diskio when there is no disk I/O in given sample period on this device. |
| 733215 | After upgrading, the value of systabstats.rowcnt for the syspartitions and sysobjects tables will be 1 less than the actual number of rows in these two system tables. |
| 733226 | If a parallel plan's thread count exceeds the session's parallel degree, then the plan will undergo Compile time Thread Adjustment (CTA). If the plan contains a semantic scan under a semantic dependent operator (JOIN, DISTINCT, GROUP, or UNION_DISTINCT), then the semantic dependent operator's plan fragment (from its containing xchg op) may have it's degree adjusted incorrectly which could result in wrong results. |
| 733305 | KBA 1864300. An ASE spid with remote I/O may hang when killed. Even reissuing the kill does not help. |
| 733331 | Error message 1509 may be raised when CREATE INDEX or UPDATE STATISTIC is executed in parallel on huge table where there are very few distinct COLUMNS values. |
| 733346 | The stored procedure sp_dropexternlogin will fail when executed by a user that has SSO_ROLE and not SA_ROLE when granular permissions is not enabled. |
| 733367 | Provide downgrade support from 15.7 SP110 to SP100 to prevent loading database or transaction dumps containing transactional activity from INSERT-BULK with parallel index updates work load. Extend db_attr(), and loginfo() built-ins to examine database feature-set. Extend LOAD ... WITH HEADERONLY to report the features found in the dumps. |
| 733428 | The "recovery prefetch size" configuration parameter is added to configure the lookahead size (in terms of log pages) in order for recovery to prefetch to-be-recovered pages. When set to 0, SAP ASE will automatically optimize the value. |
| 733446 | In DDLGen 15.7 ESD#3 and later, 'set quoted_identifier on' is reported in the DDL output even when it is not specified in the actual create table SQL. |
| 733462 | A timeslice error may occur followed by a stack trace involving the module itl_au_update_xfer_mark() with executing BCP-IN or update DMLs, if 'transfer table' is set on a large table with data more than 47GB on 2KB page size (95GB on 4KB pagesize, 190GB on 8KB pagesize, 380GB on 16KB pagesize). |
| 733579 | The unreserved page count might be off by the number of pages of the table SYSDAMS if SAP ASE uses the OAM pages to calculate the free space counts. The database fragments containing pages of the system table SYSDAMS will show the space used by this table as free. |
| 733604 | Add the ability to suppress warning message regarding the ignoring of hints under the presence of abstract plans. This is enabled under Trace Flag 15381. |
| 733623 | ASE allows configuration parameter 'max online engines' to be set to a value lower than 'number of engines at startup' leading to an incorrect value for the parameter 'max online Q engines'. This can result in incorrect calculations for the 'maximum number of engines' resulting in ASE hitting a SIGSEGV followed by a stack trace involving the module ueisonline(). |
| 733750 | Timeslices may occur with statistics gathering using hashing. |
| 733752 | The estimate for NULLs in the optimizer may be incorrect if hash based statistics gathering is used, when the number of unique values in the column is greater than 65535. |
| 733766 | The severity of error message 5805 and 5806 is now changed from EX_USER to EX_INFO since they are just warnings. |
| 733776 | After an upgrade, execution of a procedure may fail with error 102 "incorrect syntax near [ endend | grantgrant ]" and error 11031 due to the source code being stored incorrectly in syscomments when it contains multiple GRANT statements. Manually correct the source code, then drop and re-create the procedure. |
| 733838 | ASE no longer rejects requests to add remote logins with same server name as local server. |
| 733893 | Device Props does not display databases that are using a device on little-endian machines. On big-endian machines, unintended databases may get displayed. |
| 733904 | Active roles being reset leading to permission errors. |
| 733907 | The error 822 "Could not start I/O for request.." followed by a stack trace that includes the module altdb_shrinklog() could be raised in a Cluster Edition server if a fragment of the database log is shurnk using the command ALTER DATABASE LOG OFF and the device where this fragment was is dropped. |
| 733932 | KBA 1914594. When a user with sso_role runs a query accessing a table, a 2736 error, "Owner name that was specified is a group name. Objects cannot be owned by groups" may occur followed by a 706 error, "Process < n > tried to remove PROC_HDR < addr > that it does not hold in Pss", during recompiling a light-weight procedure if statement cache is enabled. The processed will be terminated. |
| 733937 | When using hash based statistics gathering on columns with more than 65535 unique values there is a possibility of inaccurate summary statistics of the range density and range unique counts as displayed in optdiag. This may lead to suboptimal query plan selection. |
| 734031 | Add open client version to monProcess under column ClientVersion |
| 734125 | The 695 error, "An attempt was made to read logical page ' < n > ' for database ' < dbname > '..." could be raised in an archive database when the database dump contains more than 256 contiguous log pages. |
| 734176 | If DBCC DBREBOOT is unsuccessful for some reason, the status in sysdatabases may sometimes incorrectly indicate that a forced shutdown is in progress, even after SAP ASE has been shutdown and rebooted successfully. |
| 734184 | In rare occasions, Adaptive Server's internal timer becomes non-operational. Such occurrence is reported to the errorlog with messages like “Warning: Alarm Service for Timer non-operational. If this message generated multiple times, report to support and restart the server (alarminterval=-7001)” |
| 734204 | When the configuration parameter 'max network peek depth' is configured to a positive value, ASE will look for an attention up to the specified depth in the pending input on a connection, and if one is found, all input preceding the attention packet as well as the attention packet itself are discarded, the currently executing command is canceled and an attention acknowledgement is sent to the client. When running with the default value 0 of the configuration parameter, ASE looks for an attention only at the start of pending input. |
| 734211 | DDLGen can generate an incorrect header message while generating ddl for a load profile. Instead of saying 'DDL for LoadProfile', it can say 'DDL for :user'. |
| 734212 | ASE hits SIGNAL 11 (SIGSEGV) when it runs out of spinlocks under heavy CT-Lib calls if 'max cis remote connections' configuration value is DEFAULT (which is 0). Setting 'max cis remote connections' to appropriate value is suggested to avoid reserving high number of spinlocks (upto four times 'number of user connections'). |
| 734214 | Command line trace flag 16964 is added to turn off the row constructor optimization for range predicates. This optimization may cause an underestimate of the limiting selectivity of an index scan when a range predicate exists on an indexed column followed by limiting predicates on subsequent columns. For example, if an index I(a,b,c) has predicates a > 5 and b=10 and c > 20 then the range predicate on “a” is followed by minor attributes “b” and “c” which also have limiting predicates... then the scan selectivity on the index "I" may be underestimated. |
| 734394 | When ASE Server is not in single user mode during sp_downgrade 'prepare', report a warning message to indicate it instead of stopping the validation. |
| 734395 | When dropping an encryption key, the 15401 message is reported with malformed values in the message. |
| 734470 | When SAP ASE is booted with trace flag 7437 it will not switch from an OAM scan to an allocation page scan when an incorrect page count value in one or more OAM entries is found during boot time recovery and while calculating the free space page counts for a database. |
| 734475 | The LogicalReads value in the monProcessActivity and monProcessStatement MDA tables remained unchanged when a long query is executing. |
| 734500 | The index page scanning selectivity estimate may be too optimistic for an index, in which a prefix of 0 or more positioning equality predicates (such as r.a = 1 and r.b = 2) is followed by a positioning range predicate such as (r.c > 5) is following by subsequent trailing positioning predicates (such as r.d = 10 and r.e > = 20). The change enabled by the new optcriteria limit_row_constructor will limit the index page scan reduction by at most 50% (in our example it will limit reductions contributed by r.d, r.e). |
| 734617 | Adaptive Server 15.7 may execute SELECT queries at isolation level 3 on Data Only Locked scheme tables slower than SAP ASE 15.0.3 or 15.5 if the session executing the SELECT query holds a large number of locks. |
| 734660 | The error "Page Verification Error: Page mismatch. Page < page # > contains 0 in page header." could be incorrectly printed in the Backup Server errorlog when executing DUMP DATABASE WITH VERIFY. This error is spurious and can be ignored. |
| 734702 | For objects with no storage, error 691 may be reported while running a CREATE INDEX command if either a dump is in progress or an incremental dump is in progress. |
| 734705 | After running sp_reptostandby/sp_setreptable/sp_setrepcol with "use_index" option on compressed in-row LOB columns, dbcc checktable() may report various kinds of index errors. |
| 734716 | At times the systabstats empty page count column may get values near to 2^32 (~4294967295) if inserts into a table are rolled back. |
| 734750 | srvbuildres optimization fails when specifying '16K' as the logical page size in the resource file for the Adaptive Server. |
| 734800 | Backup Server may occasionally report a spurious error when executing a DUMP or LOAD WITH VERIFY[ONLY], as a result of checking a page that is already deallocated. This is more likely to happen when the deallocated page belonged to compressed table. |
| 734866 | The builtin asehostname() is now made a grantable builtin. |
| 734897 | On a High Availability (HA) System, sp_companion may hang if sp_sysmon is running at the same time. |
| 734899 | A 692 error, "Uninitialized logical page < pageno > was read while accessing database ...", may be reported after loading an in-memory database dump from a database where this page was used but was marked as deallocated incorrectly, resulting in this page not being archived in the dump. |
| 734968 | Sometimes queries that involve multiple DERIVED TABLEs or VIEWs may return wrong results. The kind of queries that could be affected by this needs the following elements: (1) A DERIVED TABLE with a correlated expression SUBQUERY as one of the DERIVED TABLE’s SELECT list items. (2) Another correlated SUBQUERY in the parent query block which is referencing the expression SUBQUERY result from 1) as the correlated column. (3) Both 1) and 2) are under an IN SUBQUERY of the top query block. 1) and 2) lead ASE query tree to use a worktable for the DERIVED TABLE and 3) puts an EXISTS requirement over a table used by the DERIVED TABLE. The combination causes ASE to miss the EXISTS requirement on the table when generating a plan and leads to duplicate rows. |
| 734983 | Added new option SET PLAN SHARED ON and server wide param 'abstract plan sharing'. It enables Abstract Plan sharing between different users. Tables in the query with shared abstract plan must be explicitly prefixed with the owner name or belong to the DBO user. |
| 735003 | The built-ins or stored procedures that rely on OAM for space accounting get blocked on an exclusive table lock on the table. |
| 735029 | When the source server is 15.7 ESD#2 or later, sybmigrate -m migrate session may fail with the error, "The catalog 'sysusers' in the target database appears to contain rows which were either installed by the user or were previously migrated. Cannot proceed with migration of 'Users'". |
| 735036 | KBA 2011833. When running concurrent SELECT commands and DELETE/UPDATE commands on TEXT/IMAGE/UNITEXT columns, the client connection may hang or report a TDS token error or raise error 7128 state 6. |
| 735107 | A 247 (arithmetic overflow) error may be reported when the syscachepoolinfo and syscacheinfo MDA tables are queried. |
| 735163 | Adaptive Server Enterprise may crash and generate a core dump without any stack trace or messsage while multiple sessions run sp_companion simultaneously in threaded kernel mode. |
| 735187 | A 2583 error, "Number of data pages < value > counted by DBCC differs from count in the data OAM < pageid > for dbid < dbid > object < objectid > ." may be reported when running DBCC CHECKTABLE on a table having a clustered index or placement index after the database that the table resides on experienced a load tran of ASE 15.5 or earlier to a server of ASE 15.7 or after. |
| 735256 | Sometimes an insert query with union view or derived table with union in which tables have check constraint, could cause a signal 11 (SIGSEGV) and a stacktrace in errorlog involving the function NormalizeScalar(). |
| 735270 | For query SELECTing multiple count aggregates, wrong result could happen when the final plan uses two phase aggregates. One of the count aggregates could come from an AVG(). It is more likely to happen when the two phase aggregate plan is also a parallel plan, or when the query is also a GROUPBY query with a HAVING clause equal-comparing two of the count aggregates. |
| 735292 | An ASE task making a remote procedure call to a server with server option 'net password encryption' set to true and 'cis_rpc_handling' disabled can go to sleep indefinitely and the client appears to be hung. |
| 735311 | syconfig.exe fails to optimize the server. |
| 735327 | A 692 error, "Uninitialized logical page '24' was read while accessing object '2' in database ' < dbid > '. Please contact Sybase Technical Support." may be reported when a 12.5.4 ASE database dump that was made with a 15.7 ESD#4.2 Backup Server is loaded back in a 12.5.4 ASE. |
| 735346 | ALTER TABLE on a data compressed table may lead to heap memory (CPINFO pool) corruption. ASE stacktraces may be seen involving the functions kbfalloc() and cpinfo_allocbufs(). |
| 735431 | The error, "Table Corrupt: The row number and offset of each row in the page should have a matching entry in row number table ..." will be incorrectly reported in the Backup Server error log on pages with deleted rows that belong to an All Pages Locked table when executing DUMP/LOAD WITH VERIFY. |
| 735513 | System table sysusers is accessed too often during procedure execution. |
| 735516 | Need a mechanism to change the size of Engine Local Cache (ELC). By default ELC is 50 % of configured procedure cache size. |
| 735567 | The Backup Server is enhanced to perform consistency checks on Data Only Locked (DOL) index pages besides data pages during DUMP DATABASE execution. |
| 735662 | In rare scenarios, highly contended system with large number of databases, workload consisting of large number of short dmls, rdbts_spin could be highly contended. |
| 735692 | The function row_count() when used on system tables returns zero after upgrade from SAP ASE 12.5.4 |
| 735705 | If a procedure get recompiled during execution, query against monProcessProcedures may get duplicate procedure entries. |
| 735727 | When updating an in-row LOB datum to NULL, the LTL generated for the update of the datum wrongly includes the LTL qualifier 'tpinit' instead of the qualifier 'zerolen'. This does not cause data corruption, or interruption of replication. Nevertheless, according to the LTL specification, the qualifier 'zerolen' must be used. |
| 735812 | The unreserved space reported by either the stored procedure sp_helpdb or the builtin curunreservedpgs() could be wrong after executing any of the stored procedures sp_addsegment, sp_extendsegment or sp_dropsegment. |
| 735863 | When running optimization goal allrows_dss it is possible that an incorrect aggregate result may be returned in rare circumstances involving a derived table or view containing a union all with the aggregate operating on a constant in the select list on at least one side of the union all. |
| 735868 | In rare case, SELECT on a DOL table with index may cause ASE to shut down with a timeslice error and followed by a stack trace that includes the modules bt__handle_LAdone(), bt__qualpage(), bt__scan_massoffset() and bufoffset(). |
| 735879 | The backupserver sample resource file is missing ASE login and password attributes for sybatch.exe |
| 736017 | A 7949 error, "The number of pages used and unused for object < objid > index 255 partition < ptnid > on allocation page < alloc_page_no > do not match the counts in the OAM entry." followed by error 7940, "The counts in the OAM are incorrect. This implies that there are entries missing. Run tablealloc utility with the FIX option on the table with the inaccurate OAM counts." may be reported by DBCC TEXTALLOC and FULL option after inserting data with BCP into a table that has LOB columns and the option 'lob_compression' is enabled in the target database. |
| 736019 | When using hash based statistics collection and over 65535 unique values exist in the column then it is possible that the summary statistics (such as density) may be slightly inaccurate. If one looks at the optdiag output for the column and determines that a range cell is used for the first cell even though only one domain value can fit into the cell, then it is possible for summary statistics inaccuracies. It is possible, but unlikely, that query plans could be adversely affected. |
| 736079 | A cheaper plan containing the merge_union_all operator may be skipped in favor of a more expensive plan using a sort operator on top of an append_union_all. |
| 736093 | In rare cases in a cluster environment with more than one node, ONLINE DATABASE may hang if the log segment free space falls below a threshold. |
| 736179 | A 3261 error, "You cannot load this dump because it contains functionality that is available only on the server on which it was dumped" will be reported by LOAD DATABASE when trying to load a database dump which was taken while the database option "deallocate first text page" was active, or at least one table in this database had the attribute "dealloc_first_txtpg" set to 2. |
| 736268 | A login account that has a login-specific password expiration setting may have the global password expiration setting applied to it if the server encounters a 1204 (out of locks) error during the login attempt. |
| 736426 | The Java Compile Suite layer in Adaptive Server that is responsible for UDF/ADT support and SQLJ queries execution towards the target JavaVM has been enhanced to allow the release of intermediate allocated Java objects. This was causing the JavaVM heap memory allocation to be exhausted under a heavy load application environment. |
| 736428 | The message, "Transaction count after EXECUTE indicates that a COMMIT or ROLLBACK TRAN is missing. Previous count = 1, Current count = 0" is wrongly reported in chain mode. |
| 736435 | In rare circumstances, dropping a connection upon the CIS idle timeout may result in concurrent execution of Ct-library calls which may result in undesirable behavior. |
| 736499 | Linux client failed to redirect connections to Windows Server. |
| 736536 | sp_dbextend does not observe default device growby limits. |
| 736538 | sp_sysmon gives wrong average values for 'Engine Busy Utilization' in process kernel mode. |
| 736550 | Under rare circumstances a 696 error: "An attempt was made to read logical page ' < page# > ' for database ' < dbname > ' ( < dbid > ), object ' < tablename > ' ... from disk. Wrong logical page ' < page# > ' was brought into cache 'default data cache'." may be reported in the error log for allocation pages after the execution of CREATE, ALTER or LOAD DATABASE commands in an ASE installation using a page size that is greater than 2K-bytes and when during their execution the message "No large buffers were available, so pages are being cleared by writing each page separately. Please be patient" is reported. Alternatively a 2529 error, "Table Corrupt: Attempted to get page < page# > , partition ID 99; got page < page# > , partition ID 99." may be reported by DBCC CHECKALLOC. |
| 736603 | In some rare cases, accessing a system table could result in 8201 error being raised. |
| 736622 | When running REORG REBUILD against a table whose name or any column name might form part of a reserved double or triple keyword phrase it is possible for an error 156 error to be reported along with error 11934 and for the REORG REBUILD command to abort. |
| 736626 | KBA 2015067. When ASE is configured with the 'process' kernel mode and with several engines, the RepAgent Thread may be infected with signal 11 in the module 'uctSetIssuedCnt' while shutting down with a stack trace reported in the error log which includes the modules 'usctclose' and 'ra_drop_csconn'. |
| 736645 | After downgrading from ASE 15.7 to ASE 15.5GA, when booting the ASE 15.5GA server, a segmentation fault may be encountered during startup while attempting to reconcile the downgraded configuration options. |
| 736699 | If there are significant concurrent activities which pin buffer cache pages in the named tempdb cache (or default data cache) then it is possible that the server could appear to hang due to lack of buffer cache. The kind of activity that could lead to this state is "hash based statistics gathering", "sorts", "query plans using hash operators". |
| 736754 | The error 2550, "Missing segment in sysusages segmap", will be unnecessarily reported by DBCC CHECKCATALOG if a database has a fragment with a segmap equal to 0. |
| 736888 | In rare circumstances, a 3474 error, "During redo the page timestamp value is less than old timestamp from log" may happen while loading a transaction log dump containing a rollback of a CREATE INDEX operation in database that has ddl_in_tran option on. |
| 736902 | Optdiag tool was running as a ctlib application of a lower version, so it misinterpreted (and wrongly displayed) BIGDATETIME and BIGTIME values reported for statistics. |
| 736951 | Improved the RAT Multiple Scanners code concurrency by removing the usage of un-needed locking primitives. |
| 736957 | In certain circumstances, databases, including system databases, can incorrectly get into LOG SUSPEND mode, issuing message: "Space available in the log segment has fallen critically low in database ' < dbname > '. All future modifications to this database will be suspended until the log is successfully dumped and space becomes available." This may happen even though there is much unreserved space in the database. The problem may also manifest in 3475 errors: "There is no space available in SYSLOGS to log a record for which space has been reserved in database < dbname > ." |
| 737039 | A 941 error, "Illegal database context operation." may be repeatedly reported in the error log by the housekeeper wash task. An ASE reboot is the only option to stop this message from being reported. |
| 737108 | Assertion fail in le_subst.cpp maybe raised when index only contains fixed-length columns. |
| 737292 | In some circumstances, monOpenObjectActivity may report ObjectCacheDate for the cached object as 'Jan 1 1900 12:00AM' or other wrong date value. |
| 737327 | Querying a DATE column from remote DB2 table may result in cs_convert overflow error. |
| 737338 | When the stored procedure sp_renamedb is executed from a read-only database, a wrong error message, "You cannot run stored procedure 'sp_renamedb' from a low durability database" is reported. The message should be "You cannot run stored procedure 'sp_renamedb' from a read-only database". |
| 737365 | DUMP DATABASE to TSM API on Windows platforms can fail with the error message, "D00: SYBMULTBUF ERROR: Emulator interprocess communication failed with error state = 9, error code=109, system message=Cannot get operating system error tex." Occasionally, the message, "system message =The pipe has been ended. Refer to your operating system documentation for further details." can also be reported. This issues only affects ASE on the Windows platforms. |
| 737481 | In rare cases, when updating CHAR, VARCHAR or IN-ROW-LOB columns on a PAGE compressed table and there are many non-printable characters in the existing column value, the update may fail. |
| 737524 | In rare circumstances, an 8201 error, "Keep count of descriptor (objid= < obj_id > , dbid= < db_id > ) was expected to be 1. Instead 2 was found" followed by a stack trace that includes the modules des__clean() and des__scavenge() when a system is running out of descriptors. |
| 737543 | KBA 1912577. Added a diagnostic check to help identify LRU chain issues. Trace flag 897 has been added to enable the instrumentation. |
| 737577 | The 3702 error,"Cannot drop the procedure 'sp_aux_getsize' because it is currently in use." will be raised if a user tries to drop the stored procedure sp_aux_getsize before the server has finished the recovery of every database. |
| 737628 | Intelligient index scan may lead to non-optimal index in plan selection. |
| 737697 | When running UPDATE INDEX STATISTICS with SAMPLING command, numerous errors may be reported in the errorlog - 1105 errors: "Can't allocate space for object 'temp worktable' in database 'tempdb' because 'system' segment is full/has no free extents. If you ran out of space in syslogs, dump the transaction log. Otherwise, use ALTER DATABASE to increase the size of the segment" and 1764 errors: "Failed to insert row into worktable, when projecting base table on to work table for collecting statistics". |
| 737702 | Certain stored procedures created with "execute as caller" and using user defined datatypes may produce 2716 errors at execution time. |
| 737733 | The 12320 message, "Fatal internal error encountered when forwarding row < rowid > in table < tablename > , database < dbname > during update. Aborting the transaction" may be reported when updating a DOL row on a table defined as Page Compressed. |
| 737762 | Under rare circumstances backup server may produce unpredictable text attached to the dump trailer. |
| 737824 | The 18124 message, "No matching configuration options" may be reported when executing sp_configure "solaris async i/o mode" |
| 737837 | Shrinkpage() will raise a 631 error if the parent nonleaf page has only one nonleaf row that points to the shrinking page. |
| 737879 | When backup server is started with trace flag –D2048, the pages that have been allocated after the backup server built a list of pages to be archived and before the related allocation page is read by sybmultbuf, will be resent. Prior to dump a database one can run “SYB_BACKUP…qatraceon 105” that will add appropriate messages in the backup server error log when a resent has occurred. |
| 737907 | If the server crashes in the middle of SHRINKDB, the segmap number on sysusages table may not be updated to 0. |
| 737933 | Add option to Connect Dialog to connect to the last-used database (instead of the default database). |
| 738007 | In rare circumstances, the RepAgent thread may fail to terminate and hang in the module 'upsleepgeneric'. The execution for DBCC STACKTRACE( < RepAgent_spid > ) would indicate the RepAgent sleeping in the modules 'usctcancel' and 'ksctsuspend'. |
| 738033 | When auditing option to remove java classes is turned 'on', sp_audit stored procedure returns with a message that the option is 'off'. |
| 738117 | The message, "Current process infected with signal 11", followed by a stack trace that includes the module ssql_release() or ssql_choose_victims() may be reported in the SAP ASE error log when the statement cache is full in a high concurrency SAP ASE environment. |
| 738189 | Load dump with list_only=create_sql sometimes fails. A Unrecoverable I/O or volume error may be reported. |
| 738196 | A core dump facility is added to the sybmon configurable shared memory dump feature. This is supported only on Windows platforms. |
| 738218 | A 1209 error, "Internal Error in lock manager routine: Attempted lock upgrade from shared intent to shared table in parallel query thread is illegal", may be reported in the error log during a SELECT or SELECT-INTO query on a table with parallel plan if there are concurrent DMLs or utilities operating on the table. |
| 738309 | In rare circumstances, the task will hang when LIKE clause or patindex(builtin) operator on the columns which contain the LOB data defined as compressed. |
| 738319 | After multiple HADR failovers, new client connections to a server in the HADR group may fail with error message "Read from the server has timed out" or "There is a tds login error". |
| 738322 | Backup Server introduces a remote access control feature that prevents remote dumps and loads and execution of remote procedure calls (RPC) from any client or server running on unauthorized servers. Local dumps are not affected by this feature (NB, CR 749101 also needed if the network interface has more than one IP address). Authorization to dump or load, to or from Backup Server is achieved by including the authorized hosts in the host.allow access control file. The default location of hosts.allow file is $SYBASE. The location and name can be changed using the Backup Server parameter -h. |

| 739469 | When a merge statement inserts a new record into a table with an identity column, the identity column will be populated with correct value but the global variable @@identity will remain unchanged. |
| 739477 | If HASH based statistics gathering is used during an UPDATE STATISTICS or a CREATE INDEX statement, then there may be a failure if the respective column contains the next to lowest value of the domain but not the lowest value of the domain. The statement may be aborted. e.g. if the column is an unsigned integer then 1 is the next to lowest value and if the column contains a 1 but not a 0, then the statement may be aborted. |
| 739497 | Inaccurate histograms can be created when the unique value count of the column exceeds 65535 unique values. |
| 739529 | ASE logs the message, "Expected object passed to utGetThid is not of type thread", repeatedly. |

| 753302 | When we create a table with global variable as a default and then insert a row into this table in the same batch, it will trigger a n infected with 11 (SIGSEGV) stacktrace in the SAP ASE errorolog if the insert is not cached either due to switch off due to the statement cache being disabled or by using special traceflags. |
| 753461 | A segmentation violation occurs when sp_listener starts an SSL listener where no SSL listeners had been started previously. |
| 753525 | SAP ASE running on Unix/Linux platforms only prints the top 25 stack frames in a stack overflow stacktrace report which could mask the root cause and also provide insufficient diagnostics when a stack overflow is caused by a recursive function. If the stack overflow backout code uses too much stack, the backout process can cause stack guard word corruption resulting in server shutdown. This CR removes the limitation on number of frames in the stacktrace and if the stack overflow backout code use of the stack reaches within 4K bytes of the stack boundary, it then initiates forcible termination of the task to prevent stack guardword corruption. The default value of 'stack guard size' is increased by 4K bytes to retain earlier level of stack availability. Traceflag 3687 provides a stacktrace when a transaction is aborted due to insufficient stack space that can provide additional diagnostics on stack usage by the query. Traceflag 3686 disables this change. This change is not applicable to the Microsoft Windows platform. |

| 756648 | A 213 error, "Insert error: column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition." may be reported in a stored procedure, when deferred compilation is active, if a column is added to a table and there is a dependency on "select * " behavior to ignore the extra column. Trace flag 7798 will ignore this error if deferred compilation is turned on and allow normal compilation to process the statement. If normal compilation still sees an inconsistency, or some other activity causes re-resolution of the stored procedure, then errors may be still be reported. |
| 756819 | Arithmetic overflow occurred in procedure 'sp_sysmon_kernel'. |
| 756875 | When executing a DUMP command with more than one VERIFY option, the backup server will ignore all but the last one. Also, on Windows platform, if the archive is bigger than 4GB and we are executing WITH VERIFY=READ_AFTER_WRITE or VERIFY=CRC and the verification fails when reading a block that is at an offset greater than 4GB, the error message will report an offset value that is only the two lower bytes of the actual offset, for example "There was a failure decompressing < # > bytes at offset 804831240 when processing stripe ' < the stripe name > '" instead of the offset value for 5099798536. |

| 757251 | Add 'Proc Cache Header' diagnostic enhancements for the block pool to capture the time spent in bitmap scanning and collect memory allocation/free patterns. These diagnostics are disabled by default. |
| 757258 | When displaying configuration values for Replication Agent using the sp_help_rep_agent procedure the 'rs_servername' displays only the first 30 characters. |
| 757301 | When a 331 error occurs or there are long query optimization times or large procedure cache usage occurs in the optimization phase, then this may be due to the optimizer not pruning subplans in the search space as early as possible. Improve pruning can be turned on with optcriteria cr757301, or by using ase_current with optimization level of at least ase157sp130. Trace flag 16992 will turn off the optimization even if the optcriteria is enabled. |

| 758507 | Executing DBCC CHECKSTORAGE on an encrypted archive database may raise suspect conditions. |
| 758765 | An incorrect decision by optimizer to do the update in direct mode might result in consecutively repeated update of the same row and resulting in page corruption, manifesting in the errors 806, 614, 120024, etc. |
| 758774 | The Job Scheduler may fail to start after setting the minimum password length using sp_passwordpolicy to a value greater than the value of the minimum password length set by sp_configure. |
| 758796 | KBA 2006614. If a database and objects within the database are bound to different caches, ASE could run into SIGSEGV issue when it performs encryption/decryption on the database. |
| 758868 | Under a heavily used replication environment and in rare circumstances the Rep Agent schema cache and the Rep Agent memory pool can run out of memory because of a memory leak issue. |
| 758938 | When a process that is executing a DUMP DATABASE command is killed either using the KILL command or using CTRL-C or the SQL session goes away, the Backup Server will not release its associated resources until it finishes copying the whole database. One of the consequences is that the archive devices can remain locked for a long time because the sybmultbuf processes stay alive. |
| 758959 | In rare circumstances, when the MDA table monProcessProcedures is being used, an infected with 11 (SIGSEGV) error along with a stacktrace may be logged in the SAP ASE errorlog . This is a similar situation as addressed by CR 754648 (which covered monProcessStatement). |
| 758961 | syconfig.exe/sybatch.exe and sqlupgrade[res] needs to install Job scheduler stored procedures and templates when upgrading the ASE server. |
| 758973 | A SIGSEGV (infected with 11) can be logged in the SAP ASE errorlog on the Windows platform if the loginfo() built-in is called with three parameters and for whatever reason the built-in returns an error. |
| 759012 | A 614 error - "Adaptive Server accessed a row that has an illegal length of < n > while in data base ' < dbname > '. < page info > . The minimum row length is < n > . The page size is < n > ." may be reported when executing DBCC CHECKDB on an unencrypted database that is encrypted first and then decrypted. |
| 759041 | Support online parallel create index. |
| 759142 | When UPDATE STATISTICS is performed on a character column with a non-binary character set, and in addition UPDATE STATISTICS uses the consumers phrase, then there is the possibility of many small weight frequency cells following a zero weight range cell. This may cause poor query plan selection if a predicate selects a zero weight histogram cell. Optcriteria cr759142 will avoid generation of small frequency cells following a zero weight range cell, when the consumers phrase is used in UPDATE STATISTICS to generate stats on a mostly unique non-binary character set column. |
| 759143 | A poor query plan might be selected when parallel UPDATE STATISTICS (for instance using the consumers phrase) is used to gather statistics. After installing SAP ASE with the fix for this issue, update statistics will need to be run on affected tables. |
| 759188 | KBA 2013610. The message, "Current process infected with signal 11", followed by a stack trace that includes the module sendtext() may be reported in the error log when a MERGE JOIN is being used and if the inner table has in-row LOB columns with NULL values. |
| 759245 | If there are equality predicates or joins which are used for index keys, then occasionally an index which has few positioning keys specified than another index will be chosen. If 2 indexes have only equality predicates or equality joins used for keys, then a heuristic is added to choose the index with more limiting keys if those keys cover all the limiting and filtering keys of another index. The optcriteria EQUALS_SCAN_SUPERSET and trace flag 16989 will apply the heuristic to index scan which are not the inner of a nested loop join. The optcriteria EQUALS_NLJOIN_SCAN_SUPERSET and trace flag 16990 will apply the heuristics to all index scans. Note that the optcriteria are not turned on by any optgoal, and a SET command, user defined optgoal, or trace flag is needed to enable the heuristic. |
| 759270 | In rare cases, when a transaction rolls back, it may hit error 623 when starting the backward scan on a page. The 623 error message will indicate that the Rid pageid = 0; row num = 0. |
| 759322 | If replication is currently disabled and a table having non-materialized columns is dropped or one of its non-materialized defaults changes, then when replication is enabled again, it can encounter errors when trying to replicate that table's rows. |
| 759377 | In very rare situations, SAP ASE may panic and shutdown if sp_sysmon is being run and a connection disconnects at the same time. |
| 759433 | On Windows platform, SAP ASE may open an arbitrary listener port during MS DTC service initialization for distributed transaction management. |
| 759501 | Allow the command LOAD WITH VERIFYONLY to be executed using less stripes than the number used at DUMP time. |
| 759528 | REORG command has been changed such that it cannot be executed while encryption or decryption of database is in progress. |
| 759562 | Add support creation of a global index in parallel for a partitioned table that has one or more empty partitions. Previously, when creating a global index on partition table, if there were any empty partitions, then the index would be created in serial. |
| 759590 | When SAP ASE is upgraded to 16.0 from 15.7 or later and the 16.0 server writes a new configuration file before being shut down after upgrade is complete, then that configuration file may contain entries that were unexpectedly changed from what the older version server originally configured. |
| 759624 | On ASE Cluster Edition insert jobs may unexpectedly continue to run with no new rows inserted into the target table. There are NO lost inserts but, dbcc checkalloc or tablealloc may report Msg 2546 or we may encounter deadlocks which can be seen in the error log. |
| 759637 | The message, "Current process infected with signal 11", followed by a stack trace that includes the module LeScanOp::_LeOpNext() may be reported in the error log when an online utility (e.g. REORG REBUILD) is in progress on a table that contains forwarded rows. |
| 759646 | Arithmetic overflow may occur when executing the stored procedure sp_sysmon_locks. |
| 759679 | When 'net password encryption reqd' set to 1, charset/langinstall will run into 1640 (Adaptive Server requires encryption of the login password on the network) and 4002 (Login failed) errors. |
| 759728 | CREATE TABLE commands may not perform well in situations where a lot of CREATE TABLE commands are run in parallel and the SAP ASE configuration has 'enable inline default sharing' set. |
| 759748 | On Microsoft Windows platforms, SAP ASE messages may be incorrectly logged in the Windows Event Log. |
| 759867 | When granular permissions is not enabled, users with sa_role not allowed to replace objects owned by other users, getting permission denied error. |
| 759923 | Traceflag 3605 gets left on after error 707 state 11 is hit, resulting in a wide variety of diagnostic information being written to the errorlog, in turn causing the errorlog to grow rapidly. |
| 759937 | If a trigger for a DML query has certain commands that execute immediate are not allowed, such as begin tran, rollback trans, etc, error 11736 and 11031 could be raised for the first post-upgrade using execute immediate for the DML query. |
| 759945 | When LOAD DATABASE ... WITH LISTONLY = 'CREATE_SQL' is used with the new functionality to create DDL for a differently named target database, the target database name is not reflected in the sp_dboption statements. |
| 759995 | KBA 2013809. A 169 error, "Expressions in the ORDER BY list must be unique", may be raised for OUTER JOIN queries involving remote tables even when the queries contain no ORDER BY clause due to incorrect ORDER BY clauses generated by the CIS layer for the queries sent to the remote server. |
| 760002 | DBCC CHECKTABLE may encounter a 2511 error, "Keys of index ID < id > for table < tablename > in leaf page are not in the correct order. Drop and re-create the index (index page < pageno > , partition ID < partition_id > )", if 'enable functionality group' is enabled and the base table lockscheme is DOL and changing the table's lockscheme from DOL to APL as part of AMC. |
| 760054 | On ASE Cluster Edition insert jobs may unexpectedly continue to run with no new rows inserted to the target table. Dbcc checkalloc or tablealloc may report Msg 2546. |
| 760159 | KBA 2110039. The 6918 error, "The SYSDAMS page that stores the state of page # in database ' < dbname > ' could not be found. The option 'allow incremental dumps' will be disabled because SAP ASE cannot continue recording page modifications", can be raised if the table SYSDAMS gets the very first extent of an allocation unit allocated. |
| 760176 | Optcriteria equals_scan_superset and avoid_zero_weight_histograms are associated with the ase157sp130 optimization level. Previously, a user defined optgoal needed to be defined to enable these optcriteria (or trace flags 16989 and 16991 respectively). |
| 760187 | The index ID is incorrectly reported as 0 in the SAP ASE error message number 12301, "Internal error: the index (id = < ID > ) and the data for row ( < page > , < row > ) in table ' < table > ', database < db > are inconsistent; data is marked deleted but index is not. Aborting the transaction". |
| 760241 | The error message, "Length of plain text is less than one cipher block", may be reported in the error log during encryption of a database. |

This will result in the Rep Agent Thread terminating abnormally. |
| 760274 | In rare circumstances, a time slice error followed by a stack trace that includes the modules ups_end_statglobalnosort() and close_table() may be reported in the SAP ASE error log when running UPDATE INDEX STATISTICS. |
| 760365 | Isolation level 0 queries fail with errors when CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX WITH ONLINE is in progress concurrently on the same table. |
| 760373 | Resource limit violation message 11001 (severity level 17:EX_RESOURCE) is reported when action 5(record action) is configured. |
| 760390 | A DUMP WITH COMPRESSION could fail with the message "SYBMULTBUF ERROR: Emulator interprocess communication failed with error state = 9, error code=0, system message=Pipe I/O returned 0 bytes". If a core file is produced the stack will show the module sm__do_allocations(). |
| 760437 | Under certain circumstances, the preupgrade utility from SAP ASE 16.0 can encounter data conversion errors and overflow errors when checking for free space in a database's system segment. |
| 760453 | Wrong result could happen when an EQUIJOIN on a single INT4 column is placing a bloom filter probe into the scan and the scan is at the inner side of another NESTED LOOP JOIN with a pushdown EQUIJOIN sarg on the same column. |
| 760539 | SAP ASE fails to boot on Windows with the message "FATAL: shared memory region is being held at xxx bytes but yyy bytes are required" being reported in the SAP ASE errorlog. |
| 760621 | On a server that has a large number of objects, the sp_sysmon report may take a long time to complete and error message 1508, "Create index aborted on duplicate rows. Primary key is < keyname > ", may be reported in the error log. |
| 760654 | DBISQL 16 stopped reading interfaces entries when the file contains a large number of entries. |
| 760661 | The procedure cache allocation is optimised. This vastly speeds up the start-up of SAP ASE configured with a very large procedure cache. |
| 760672 | A 3478 error, "During undo the page timestamp value is less than new timestamp from log." or other fatal errors may be reported in the error log when SAP ASE is rolling back a transaction following an 863 error, "Buffer resources in cache < cache_name > are unavailable. Please re-run this query or ask the system administrator to re-configure buffer cache memory." that is accompanied with messages "Named cache < cache_name, cache_id > is configured too small for current demands". |
| 760673 | If the data cache is configured small, SAP ASE may report a 'cache too small' error when the new sort buffer algorithm is used. |
| 760684 | A 707 error, "System error detected during attempt to free memory at address < addr > . Please consult the ASE error log for more details", may be raised by SAP ASE when multiple SAP ASE connections are executing parallel CREATE INDEX commands. |
| 760711 | In rare circumstances, after using the configuration option 'global cache partition number', the dataserver may hang. If the diagserver was being used then an Assertion (! "locks not cleaned") will be reported in the SAP ASE errorlog. |
| 760751 | A parallel query may be rejected during execution because the worker thread pool has fewer threads available than the minimum number of threads required to execute the plan. In this case, the query should be sent back to be recompiled in serial mode. However, the query will be recompiled in parallel mode and then fails during execution again if it contains a plan-clause with the following directive "(use optgoal allrows_dss)". At this point a 225 error, "Cannot run query--referenced object (name NAME NOT RECOVERABLE) dropped during query optimization", is raised because the procedure buffer object is missing. |
| 760781 | When there is no active transaction in a database, running select loginfo('dbname','stp_pages') will give the result of 0 even if the secondary truncation page is not the same as the last log page. |
| 760836 | In some rare cases, some of the pdes spinlocks show contention with objects that have a large number of partitions. |
| 760875 | sp_sysmon and monEngine do not report DiskIOChecks in process mode. |
| 760876 | Deprecate the plan sharing feature (used to be enabled via the SAP ASE configuration option called "enable plan sharing"). |
| 760897 | A 6908 error, "During redo the page timestamp value is less than old timestamp from log. etc." followed by a stack trace that includes the module 'recovery' could be raised when loading a database dump if the configuration parameter 'optimize dump for faster load' is enabled and there is very high update activity in SAP ASE while the dump database command is running. To workaround the problem the end-user can set the trace flag 3022 (either via the command line or by using dbcc traceon or by using SET SWITCH ON ignore_trailer_ckpt) before loading the database. |
| 760910 | KBA 2014957. In rare circumstances, when a partitioned table has a local index and partition lock is enabled, SAP Adaptive Server may hit error 12212 during an index scan, if a committed transaction deletes few rows from a partition that cause deallocation of extent (say X) and a uncommitted transaction inserts rows in another partition, cause allocation of same extent(X). After hitting 12212 error SAP ASE terminates the connection and logs a stacktrace in the SAP error log. Error 12212 " Internal Error: The partition ID ( < ID > ) of the lock does not match the partition ID ( < ID > ) of the new request on this lock. dbid= < DB_ID > , objid= < OBJ_ID > , pageno= < Page number > , rowno= < Row Number > locktype= < lock type > ". |

Aborting the transaction", may be reported during an isolation level 0 scan. |
| 761062 | When using sql replication and nested builtins with a column reference, an incorrect sql statement may be generated instead of defaulting to row replication. |
| 761117 | DML on tables with Encrypted Columns are significantly slower than SP50. |
| 761155 | For SAP ASE Cluster Edition, when table creation is in progress, the checkpoint process may hit an infected with 11 (SIGSEGV) in the module 'ocm_hold()' and report a stacktrace in the SAP ASE errorlog that includes the modules 'des_has_onlutl_active()' and 'cm_writedes()'. |
| 761188 | Monitoring Tables to have an extra column as "OrigServerUserID" to track original ServerUserID when executing procedures with "execute as". |
| 761275 | KBA 2108695. When there are several scans on the same index and some of the scans hit the same index page needed to be shrunk concurrently, the index page may be shrunk twice. The second attempt will fail and a 2630 error, "In database < db > , page < page#2 > is linked backward to page < page#1 > , but that page is linked forward to page < page#3 > . Please report this internal error to SAP Technical Support". Although a 2630 error is raised, the index is not corrupted. |

| 763834 | Some system stored procedures inherited permissions from lower server (i.e. 15.5) after upgrade to 16.0. |
| 763859 | The EQUALS_SCAN_SUPERSET optcriteria hueristic rule is applied to prefer an index with more limiting equi-sarg keys specified over another index with fewer limiting keys, given that the index limiting equi-sargs keys is a superset of the latter index, and that it is also a superset all the limiting sargs and filtering sargs the latter index. However, if an enforcer such as a SORT or XCHG is applied, the index with fewer limiting equi-sarg keys may still be chosen. Optcriteria cr763859 will use the rule hueristic, but it will only apply if optcriteria EQUALS_SCAN_SUPERSET is also enabled. |

| 764843 | When 2-phased sort execution plan (i.e. with SORTBUILD and GETSORTED operators) was chosen, Dynamic Thread Assignment (DTA) was causing exceptions in Linux platform due to synchronization issues supposedly due to thread migration. DTA would internally be disabled for such queries with 2-phased sort which might prevent performance gain for the queries that benefit from DTA. |
| 764862 | The message text for error 3543 is enhanced to include the database id value such as "One or more entries in the data segment free space counts in database ID %d was found to be negative and has been set to 0." |

| 766492 | An attempt to connect to the Backup Server could fail with the error 'The host ' < IP address > ' is not authorized to connect to this Backup Server.' reported in the SAP backup server error log if the SAP backup server is booted using a virtual address and the 'hosts.allow' file doesn't contain an entry for the actual real address. |
| 766498 | A non sa_role user cannot generate DDL for a database if that user does not have sa_role. |
| 766499 | When trying to INSERT rows via jdbc using the property DYNAMIC_PREPARE=true, if there is a datatype conversion for columns and overflow/underflow occurs for any column, we may see incorrect Error 515 (Attempt to insert NULL value into column). If there the underlying column allows NULL values, then we may see a data corruption issue where we insert NULL when the above mentioned error conditions occur. The correct expected behaviour is Error 247 (Arithmetic overflow during implicit conversion of datatype). |
| 766512 | sp_showplan has been extended to report optimizer timeout and optimizer timeout due to exceeding procedure cache limit. |
| 766526 | Using the statement cache, literal auto parameterization, views and instead triggers all together may result in the wrong length for text columns after the column is updated with an instead of trigger being executed. |

| 767002 | KBA 2118380. UNION operators that contain fewer than four SELECT statements could consume a large portion and possibly all of the procedure cache if one or more of the select statements has a significant number of joins in it. This is unlikely to occur if the optgoal is allrows_oltp as fewer join pops are generated. |
| 767007 | In rare circumstances, the replication of a commit command may be discarded by SAP Replication Server mistakenly, if the SAP Rep Agent is configured to use streaming replication in either near sync or sync mode.

| 767295 | When the built-in lct_admin('abort',0, < dbid > ) or lct_admin('abort', < spid > ) is issued on a task that is in the process of being killed and is in log-suspended state, the message "Unable to do cleanup for the killed process; received Msg 3617." may be reported in the SAP ASE error log, resulting in the killed task not freeing all of its resources. |
| 767308 | Sometimes a cipher operation error is encountered when database encryption is initiated. |
| 767390 | There may be a performance difference between pre SAP ASE 15.0 servers and post SAP ASE 15.0 servers due to the evaluation order of multiple subqueries on the same operator. Optcriteria cr767390 was introduced to order the subquery evaluation, when evaluated on the same operator, in the order that they were written in the query. |
| 767413 | The message "current process infected with 11" in the module 'ubffreef' together with a stack trace which includes the modules 'ra_free_mempool' and 'ra__schema_dealloc_obj' may be reported in the SAP ASE error log preceded by a 9685 error, "Rep Agent on database ' < dbname > ' switched from mode 'sync' to mode 'async' because timer on commit expired.", when SAP Adaptive Server Rep Agent is configured to use streaming replication in either near-sync or sync mode.

| 769075 | Then update statistics command may take additional time when a cntrl-C interrupt or a KILL spid is used. With this change, Adaptive Server will check more frequently for the termination request and gracefully exit the command in a more timely manner. |
| 769243 | When the loginfo() built-in is executed with any of the following options, “oldest_active_transaction_pct”, “stp_span_pct” or “can_free_using_dump_tran”, it may return an incorrect value of 0. |
| 769247 | Sometimes concurrent DMLs will fail when using online CREATE INDEX. |
| 769260 | In SAP ASE Cluster Edition, if a node crashes when a process on this node is in the middle of load database, node failover recovery may hang and not be able to complete. |

| 770403 | Dump database with verify=read_after_write and verify=crc but with no compression specified may produce an unexpected verification message such as "Backup Server: 4.190.1.1: Database repro_db: Verification reported x errors.". |
| 770415 | When using hash based statistics gathering on partitioned tables, there could be statistics missing on some local partitions and hence the final global histogram is inaccurate. The inaccurate histogram could result in sub-optimal query plans. This also would result in the DATACHANGE() counters for that column on that partition not being reset, resulting in frequent update statistics maintenance on the partitioned table when depending on the DATACHANGE() function. |
| 770418 | Added a new rule to use serial optimizer when all main query blocks don't have partitioned table and all non-partitioned tables set their "plldegree" attribute to < =1. The rule condition includes the plldegree setting for the table's useful indexes (if any). "plldegree" can be set for a table using the following command: sp_chgattribute t1, "plldegree", 4 The rule is only active when the cmdline traceflag 16993 is on.

| 776454 | When the procedure sp_dump_history is called with the 'list' option and the dump history file doesn't exist, it will be mistakenly created as an empty file. |
| 776470 | When upgrading ASE from versions prior to 16.0 SP0 PL5, if configuration option "enable functionality group" is set to 1 then it can happen that not all members of functionality group are enabled by default. |
| 776539 | The fact_table hint is disregarded for snowflake queries when one of the dimension tables is larger than the hinted central fact table. This limitation is eliminated when the relax_fact_table_hint optcriteria is enabled. |
| 776549 | KBA 2115587. The message "Assertion(!"xfep- > xfe_up_skip_in_clr_ctr < 0") failed' in the module 'rec_undo_log' together with a stack trace which includes the modules 'online_database' and 'rec_onlinetime' may be reported in the SAP ASE error log if the diagserver binary is used, duting ONLINE DATABASE recovery after loading a database dump that contained CREATE INDEX rolled back operations and the database had the option "ddl in tran" enabled. |
| 776683 | If a segmentation violation error is encountered by the Rep Agent process while the option 'stream replication' is enabled, Adaptive Server may shut down itself. |
| 776684 | Error message 692 may be raised when table OAM scan is used in a long transaction if database option "ddl in tran" is enabled and a clustered index is created before the table OAM scan under the same long transaction. The message says "Uninitialized logical page ' < page_id > ' was read while accessing database ' < database_name > ' ( < db_id > ), object ' < table_name > '( < object_id > ), index ' < index_name > ' ( < index_id > ), partition ' < partition_name > ' ( < partition_id > ). Please contact SAP Technical Support." |
| 776692 | suser_name() may display incorrect user name after a cross database execute as owner stored procedure is executed from a parent stored procedure. |
| 776748 | In rare circumstances, Adaptive Server may hang as a result of an undetected self-deadlock for a process that is doing DUMP DATABASE if the database option ‘allow incremental dumps’ is enabled. |
| 776796 | When Granular Permissions is enabled, a user with CHANGE PASSWORD privilege but not MANAGE ANY LOGIN privilege fails to change another user's password with the following error: Msg 10331, Level 14, State 2: Line 1: Permission denied, database master, owner dbo. You need the following permission(s) to run this command: MANAGE ANY LOGIN. |
| 776827 | In a HADR configured ASE, msg 3957 - “New transaction cannot be started due to an ongoing HADR deactivate operation. The command could not be completed” is raised even after completing deactivation, i.e. server is in inactive state. The message text in this case is incorrect. |
| 776952 | ASE does not print transaction info to the error log when HADR deactivation (sp_hadr_admin 'deactivate') fails due to active transactions. |
| 776981 | User with sso_role can not create database encryption key when granular permission is enabled. |
| 777090 | Under some circumstances, after sp_reptostandby has been run to set up replication in a database containing text/image columns, SAP ASE may report an error 691 in that database: "Encountered invalid logical page {ID} while accessing {partition}." |
| 777104 | auditinit failed load messages during startup on ibmaix, solaris and hpia. |
| 777119 | Segmentation violation, stack trace, and server panic from a call to kbfalloc occurs when server is under heavy load of login connections and network password encryption is used by the connections. |
| 777205 | In rare circumstances, a timeslice error might be reported when running a query using the monCachedStatement table. |
| 777210 | A 631 error, "The length of < > passed to delete row routine for the row at offset < > is incorrect on the following page of database ' < > ' ... The offset should be no greater than < > .", in the module 'rec_undo_session' together with a stack trace which includes the modules 'LeBulkOpOpen' and 'xact_rollback' may be reported in the error log when a table is encrypted and eligible for incremental transfer and BCP utility is used to load data into it. |
| 777308 | The message "INTERNAL ERROR #74051 CAP Parser ..." may be reported in the SAP SRS error log while data for a table that has default not-null non-materialized columns is replicated from SAP ASE and the streaming replication is enabled. This error will cause the replication stream with SAP ASE to be stopped. |
| 777382 | CREATE ONLINE INDEX WITH HASH STATS was not working as documented. |
| 777431 | In rare circumstances, a 2540 error, "Table Corrupt: Page is allocated but not linked. Run DBCC TABLEALLOC to correct the problem. (allocation page#= < > , extent id= < > , logical page#= < > , object id in extent= < > , object name= < > , index id in extent= < > )", may be reported during DBCC CHECKALLOC after ONLINE CREATE INDEX is run with concurrent DMLs. |
| 777553 | Undetected deadlock involving dbcc checkalloc(sybsecurity) and audit process |
| 777749 | Error 15095, "An invalid 'data row id' value (PAGE #, ROW #) was found in first text page of a text/image/unitext column. This information is on page < PAGE # > , partition ID < PTN ID > , and belongs to the object with ID < OBJ ID > . Text/image/unitext replication on this column may not work.", may be reported on replicated tables when running DBCC CHECKDB or DBCC CHECKTABLE following sp_reptostandby or sp_setreptable without using 'use_index' option. |
| 777802 | When a database with the option 'allow incremental dumps' is loaded onto a database with this option disabled, the option remains mistakenly enabled after the load completes. For this option, the setting of the target database should prevail. |
| 777813 | Stacktrace on diagserver when online parallel create index with non-empty DOL table which first partition is empty. |
| 777932 | srvbuild[res] failed to optimize server with error "Error fetching results for query: 'sp_configure 'number of engines at startup'" |
| 778011 | When a config parameter is successfully changed, but the value provided by the user is readjusted by ASE, the server message 5853 used to be sent as an error messageto the application. This change modifies the behavior to send message 5853 as an informational message. For example, henceforth the following will be sent as an informational message: additional network memory' has been modified from '31232' to '30720' by the verification routine. |
| 778190 | When a database is put in bypass recovery mode, and if during the recovery of this database an error is encountered, the subsequent databases will not be recovered although they should, resulting in either a 962 error, "Database with ID ' < > ' is not available. Please try again later.", or a 921 error, "Database 'd < > ' has not been recovered yet - please wait and try again.", being reported respectively for temporary and user databases. |
| 778439 | An exhausted fragment pool can lead to timeslice errors being reported in the SAP ASE errorlog. |
| 778448 | KBA 2129014. The task doing REORG DEFRAG might hang indefinitely with dbcc stacktrace(spid) showing at the top of the stack, functions like util_logpgimage(), rdfrag__copy_row(). A subsequent kill of reorg defrag might result in the error 1265 at severity 20 and state 5 "An illegal attempt was made to release an invalid lock or a lock that is not owned by the process family (lr= < > , lrmagic= < > )." |
| 778553 | ASE server goes down periodically on windows platform when the monState table is queried multiple times. |
| 778617 | If a database/cube schema and query combination provide an option for a "pure" star join strategy and the query contains a fact table hint, then the optimizer may generate the "pure" star join strategy without evaluating any other strategies in the search space. The "pure" star join strategy can be very expensive in some cases. The original intent of the "fact table" hint feature was to allow a search space traversal to occur when a "pure" star join strategy was found. |
| 778707 | In rare circumstances the partial rollback of a transaction (command rollback) may take a lot longer than the transaction itself, or more sections of the transaction can be rolled back than those affected by the partial rollback. |
| 779163 | A re-run of reorg defrag on a table results in the error 8233 "REORG operation is in progress on the object < > in database < > . Retry your query later.", after a prior run reorg defrag command got aborted by an internal error or an explicit kill and while aborting, hit an exception thereby, effecting an incomplete clean up of the resources acquired. |
| 779262 | Page allocation could get expensive when a table grows so large that it requires several hundred OAM pages. |
