| CR Number | Description |
|---|---|
| 73037 | There is no convenient way to reclaim unneeded space from a database except to drop and recreate that database. |
| 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. |

| 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" |
| 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. |
| 565321 | In parallel query mode, monProcessWorkerThread.ThreadsActive, monProcess.NumChildren, monSysWorkerThreads.PlansAltered and monProcessStatement.PlansAltered are always 0. |
| 569808 | In rare circumstances, the message "current process infected with 11" in the module 'adb__reserve_pg' together with a stack trace which includes the module 'adb_dirty' may be reported in the error log after the load of an archive database. |
| 578515 | sp_sysmon appl_and_login does not show the detail of activity by application name and login name. |
| 584647 | The values in "Default", "Config value", "Run Value" columns aren't right aligned when the sp_configure command is executed. |
| 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. |
| 636677 | Improve efficiency of spinlocks on the AIX platforms. |
| 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." |
| 642038 | On Platforms other than x86 Linux and Solaris Sparc, the rdesmgr_spin spinlock was hot in some scenarios. |
| 646013 | When creating local index on semantic partitioning table, mapping between index partitions and datapartitions is not guaranteed in the same order of semantic partitioning boundary. |
| 649701 | Previously diagnostic information was available for error 290024 - invalid column. Due to possible performance issues, we now print it only if traceflag 2779 is set. |
| 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. |

Improve the performance of this procedure by applying server-side changes along with a re-work of the procedure's logic. A new installmaster along with new ASE binary is needed to deliver this performance improvement. (The stored procedure changes alone are not sufficient). |
| 667751 | Support for UNIX Domain Sockets for ASE has been added for the Linux and Unix platforms. Adaptive Server Enterprise version 15.7 ESD#4 and later now support the UNIX domain socket communication, which avoids some of the overhead the TCP protocol incurs.

| 690437 | Expression subquery was always evaluated as part of the aggregate input expression even when the subquery is under CASE expression and the actual execution of the CASE doesn't need the result of the subquery. This could lead to unexpected exception during the unnecessary execution of the subquery. |
| 690533 | A wrong result could happen for an equi- join between two columns with different datatypes (such as INT2 = INT4) and there are two or more OR predicates (including IN list predicates) on one of the joining columns. |

| 714061 | Forwarded row count in the SYSTABSTATS for a table that underwent 'REORG REBUILD < tabname > WITH ONLINE' may be incorrect. |
| 714086 | In some cases, if a union query involves concate varchar type of variable, it could return wrong result due to unexpected truncation. |
| 714131 | In some customer scenarios with stored procedures or sql accessing multiple databases, rdbtmgr_spin would show high contention. |
| 714153 | Parallel index creation may fail because of error 832 if 'number of sort buffers' is configured as very small and the index depth is very large. |
| 714217 | Supplying an overflow or underflow search constant to a query on a proxy table may return incorrect result. |
| 714306 | When 'literal autoparam' is enabled, it could raise an error if a query has a literal in order by clause such as ' ', 'a' and the query was cached in statement cache and it needs to be recompiled. |

Please contact Sybase Technical Support." may be reported during the execution of either LOAD DATABASE or USE < database > commands when ASE is requested to calculate threshold information by performing OAM scans. |
| 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. |
| 716284 | asecfg core dumps when started on Solaris x64. |
| 716349 | In some cases, ONLINE DATABASE or DBCC CHECKDB executed on a database with large number of compressed objects might fail with error 716 (Unable to allocate memory from the compression info memory pool), when the 'compression info pool size' configuration option is set too low (e.g. the default value of 4096). |
| 716457 | The ASE Backup Server process has a memory leak when dumping and loading databases, which causes it to grow until it exceeds the memory limit. |
| 716567 | A query having MDA table monProcessObject caused signal 11 in routine mda__process_sdes() with an invalid SDES in a cursor. This CR seems a concurrency issue since another session was doing 'OPEN CURSOR' and the related internal cursor structures might be changing. May need to add more validation code in the related routine. A possible workaround is not to query monProcessObject. |
| 716618 | When use TF7751 and TF7752, sometimes it could cause stacktrace during plan printing. |
| 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. |

| 718628 | Signal 8 can occur when the "update statistics hashing" configuration parameter is used |
| 718637 | Parallel queries with the following query plan scenario MIGHT fail with a "Command has been aborted" message and no other warnings/errors reported in the error log: (1) There is a merge-join op where one of its child trees contains a replication exchange operator. (2) There is no "draining" operator (e.g. sort operator) between the merge-join and the exchange operator. (3) The merge-join's other child drains its input stream before the child with the replication exchange does. |
| 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. |
| 718696 | When an AP plan clause is specified as part of a dynamic SQL prepare statement, the plan clause is not saved in the statement cache when such statement is cached under ‘enable functionality group’ or ‘streamlined dynamic SQL’. |

| 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. |
| 719290 | 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 an 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". |
| 719361 | The reported database name is truncated to 20 characters when executing sp_dbrecovery_order for a database with database name longer than 20 characters. |
| 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". |
| 719389 | In sybmon, shared memory dump will not be compressed if "memory dump compression level" is set as 0 although the "memdump compress" command is executed explicitly. |
| 719399 | When the followng three conditions are met: - the SQL statement has enough predicates to generat at least 400 SARGs and - the SQL statement is executing at isloation level 0 (dirty reads) and - a unique index with at least 10 columns is chosen by the optimizer to use for repositioning the scan, A 702 error can be raised with the function, setupSargArray in the call stack. |

This fix is now disabled when Trace Flag 7773 is on. |
| 730354 | sp_sysmon can return incorrect CPU metrics. |
| 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.

| 731531 | Enhancement is made to use less SYSTYPES scans when creating table. |
| 731617 | 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". |

| 731758 | When executing UPDATE STATISTICS with an object name that contains unusual characters, the command may fail with an internal error. |
| 731783 | The message, "An internal memory management error has occured. 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. |
| 732064 | The message, "Current process infected with signal 11", followed by a stack trace that includes the module ptn_get_aphintpage() may be reported when executing a CREATE INDEX or REORG REBUILD command. |
| 732185 | An ALTER TABLE command issued on a partitioned table where the partition degree is greater than the user's parallel degree may result in various failures. |
| 732329 | Under some rare conditions, 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 if auto_temptable_stats is turned on. |
| 732385 | The message, "Current process infected with signal 11" followed by a stack trace that includes the module VTABRemoteAccess() may be raised when accessing a proxy table materialized at procedure whose name starts with a '$'. |
| 732393 | An 804 error, "Unable to find buffer < buffer address > from cache < cache name > holding logical page < page number > in sdes < sdes address > kept buffer pool for object < table name > ", may be reported when inserting data into TEXT/IMAGE/UNITEXT columns. |
| 732406 | sybmigrate does not preserve indexes in the indexid order. |
| 732588 | Under certain circumstances when a threshold action is defined, and user is dropping a procedure, and the procedure happens to be the last row of the sysprocedures page, an 873 error may be reported when log space is low, and the threshold proc gets spawned. |
| 732604 | The summary stats for histogram (i.e. unique count, density) generated by hash based statistics gathering may be inaccurate. This could occur when OPTDIAG labels a histogram as "high domain". |
| 732728 | The unreserved space stored in the table sysusages can become a huge number bigger than the fragment itself if the number of allocated pages indicated in the OAM pages for some objects becomes corrupted and show pages allocated that are not. |
| 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. |
| 733305 | An ASE spid with remote I/O may hang when killed. Even reissuing the kill does not help. |
| 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. |
| 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). |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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 |
| 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. |
| 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). |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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 | isql client may hang, or wrong TDS token error may be reorted by isql client, when running concurrent SELECT cmd and DELETE/UPDATE cmd on TEXT/IMAGE/UNITEXT columns |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 735567 | The Backup Server is enhanced to perform consistency checks on Data Only Locked (DOL) index pages besides data pages during DUMP DATABASE execution. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| 736626 | 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' 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. |
| 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". |
| 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 the existing column value, the update may fail. |
| 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. |
| 737697 | Lots of 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" may be reported in the errorlog when running UPDATE INDEX STATISTICS with SAMPLING command. |
| 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. |
| 737824 | The 18124 message, "No matching configuration options" may be reported when executing sp_configure "solaris async i/o mode" |
| 737907 | If the server crashes in the middle of SHRINKDB, the segmap number on sysusages table may not be updated to 0. |
| 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. |
| 738538 | "shutdown with nowait" may fail to shutdown the server followed by SIGSEGV stacktrace with modules ktMuxThreadGetSchedQ(), ktMuxThreadTick(), utpApplyAll(), utpmApplyAll(), kaclkintr_thread() on the stack. |
| 738652 | The error 3105, "Data on dump will not fit into current database. Need # Mbyte database." could be incorrectly reported by LOAD TRANSACTION, if the database has more than 2147483648 pages and the size of the dump is smaller than that. |
