2985561 - Targeted CR List for ASE 16.0 SP03 PL10

Symptom

The purpose of this KBA is to help SAP customers obtain a general idea of potential fixed situations in Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) 16.0 SP03 PL10. Please be sure to read the Disclaimer below.

If the EBF/SP has been released, check the CR list and coverletter at the support.sap.com.

Disclaimer: This document lists the targeted (not committed) release dates and the targeted fixed CR list for each release. Please be aware that the purpose of this posting is solely to provide you, our customers with estimated release dates and targeted CR lists. SAP does not commit to releasing on the specified dates or to including the CR fixes in the said release. While every effort will be made to meet the said targets, changes can occur at any time. It is also possible (although unlikely) that SAP may decide not to release an EBF/SP that was previously scheduled for release. 

CR NumberDescription
489340 When inserting data into a TIMESTAMP column and the source data is the result of an aggregate built-in, SAP ASE will incorrectly insert into this column the current timestamp value rather than the source data. See KBA 2408246.
636128 When a database dump that was gathered with either 15.7 or pre-16.0 SP03 release, is loaded into pre-16.0 SP03 PL08 release, and after the database is upgraded by Adaptive Server, the database timestamp value may jump to an unexpectedly high value. See KBA 2572545.
699909 The execution of stored procedure sp_helpartition may produce unexpected results when the configuration option 'ansinull' is enabled.
702153 The built-in user_name() may display an incorrect user name after a cross-database execute as owner stored procedure is run from within a parent stored procedure.
705151 The execution of SELECT count(*) on very large tables may return an inaccurate or negative value. See KBA 2056252.
773057 In rare circumstances, the message, “Assertion (0) failed in file memory.c”, together with a stack trace which includes the modules 'css_deallocate' and ‘memfree’ may be reported in the SAP ASE error log when a cursor with a large query text whose length is greater than 16KB and less than or equal to 2MB bytes is deallocated and the diagserver binary is in use.
774152 Whenever threadpool size is reduced using ALTER THREAD POOL command, it leads to 'kernel resource memory' leak. See KBA 2750513.
786753 The message, “Current process infected with signal 11 (SIGSEGV)”, in the module ‘_lopConsWktAccess’ together with a stack trace which includes the modules ‘_lopConsJoins’ and ‘s_compile_stmt’ may be reported in the SAP ASE error log when running a select query with joins and union all. See KBA 2190172.
792860 The system stored procedure sp_opt_querystats is enhanced to support user defined optgoals and transaction isolation level when reporting information about the optimization of a query.
799240 The message, “Current process infected with signal 11 (SIGSEGV)”, together with a stack trace which includes the modules ‘altdb__divide_diskmap’ and ‘altdb_shrink’ may be reported in the SAP Adaptive Server error log when ALTER DATABASE command with the "off" option is executed to shrink a database. See KBA 2323410.
802123 In rare circumstances, when one or more data or log devices are corrupted, dropping a database using such device(s) may cause the session to be terminated and may corrupt the master database.
804443 An incorrect result set may be returned during the execution of a SELECT query which includes an ORDER BY clause on an expression and ROWS OFFSET and LIMIT options are also in use. See KBA 2408819.
809701 When the cache size is changed by actions performed during the execution of sp_cacheconfig or sp_confighistory, the old cache size value is reported in 2K-bytes and the new cache size value is reported in K-bytes which causes inconsistency and confusion.
810542 When a dynamic prepared statement with the abstract plan hint "use with_recompile" is executed, Adaptive Server will not recompile the statement unexpectedly.
810996 ASE does not allow new user connections. Errorlog contains message "kernel soc_nopen: No free file descriptors available"
813940 CHAINED MODE fails to start a transaction for commands that don't access a table. See KBA 2952649.
814281 When using the "identity burning set factor" ASE generates burning sets that are about 5 times larger than they should be for identity columns based on INTEGER and BIGINT datatypes. See KBA 2624705.
815772 A 2714 error, "There is already an object named '## < table_name > ' in the database.", followed by a 4413 error, "View resolution could not succeed because the previously mentioned objects, upon which the view ' < view_name > ' directly or indirectly relies, do not currently exist.

818726 A 208 error, “ < table-name > not found. Specify owner.objectname or use sp_help to check whether the object exists sp_help may produce lots of output”, may be reported when a SELECT query is executed using an in-memory database while its associated template database is renamed using sp_renamedb. See KBA 3009019.
818916 In rare circumstances, a 2601 error, “Attempt to insert duplicate key row in object ' < table-name > ’ with unique index ‘ < index-name > ’ < additional-data > ”, may be reported when MERGE commands are concurrently executed. Adaptive Server trace flag 16844 when enabled will print diagnostics information in such cases. See KBA 2785836.
819222 The reserved_pages value reported by 'sp_spaceused syslogs' keeps growing when the database option 'delayed commit' is enabled. See KBA 2747756.

819937 In rare circumstances, SSL connections to SAP Adaptive Server may not complete their login phase and hung. The execution of sp_who will show the corresponding server processes in 'MAINTENANCE TOKEN' command mode. See KBA 2832542.
819992 Extensions are added in sybmon utility, to capture the call stacks for CI native threads in a shared memory dump, to ease HADR debugging. However, for each replicated database, these extensions require the allocation of additional 24M-bytes memory from the Replication Agent global memory pool. Consequently the ASE configuration option ‘replication agent memory size’ should be adjusted.
820004 ASE version string and active trace flags are missing when a new error log is opened either using sp_errorlog or by errorlog rollover feature.
820103 A 8201 error, "Keep count of descriptor (objid= < object-id > , dbid= < database-id > ) was expected to be 1.

See KBA 2960271.
820188 When Rep Agent is configured for Multiple Paths Replication using Multiple Scanners, it ignores the abnormal termination of a Scanner thread or a Sender thread.
820242 A new functionality is added in SAP ASE Workload Analyzer Command Line Utility which allows user to export capture, replay or comparison dashboard to an Excel file for analysis. See KBA 2850143.
820346 A 3508 error, "Attempt to set ' < database-name > ' database to single user mode failed because the usage count is < number > . Make sure that no other users are currently using this database and rerun CHECKPOINT" may be reported when the "sp_dboption ' < database-name > ', 'single user', true" command is executed to set the database into single user mode. See KBA 2948470.

820661 In some circumstances, a performance drop may be observed with SAP ASE 16.0 release, when a large batch of DELETE commands is executed and an index scan is chosen to perform the query. This can be worked around at the session level by executing ‘set postcommit_shrink off’ before the batch execution to disable the post-commit index page shrink chores. See KBA 2870613.
820672 In rare circumstances, when a huge table is queried, some MDA tables like monProcessStatement, monProcessActivity and monSysStatement may suddenly jump to a huge value like 9223372034707304682 in LogicalReads column after the value reaches to 2,147,483,647 (2^31 -1). See KBA 2873194.
820783 In rare circumstances, a 4853 error, "Server has encountered badly formatted rows during bulk insert. The bulk client may be too old to format rows properly for this server version.", may be reported during bulk copy utility execution when the Adaptive Server trace flag 4899 is enabled and the total length of a row is greater than 256 bytes.

This may cause an implicit shutdown of Adaptive Server.
821059 A new option 'html' is added to sp_showplan system stored procedure allowing to generate the plan information for a given 'spid' and redirect it into an HTML file in the target folder as previously specified by SET STATISTICS PLAN_DIRECTORY_HTML command. See KBA 2890602
821114 Statements executing the replicate() built-in using a local variable or value from an expression results in a column header of 16384 bytes instead of the actual width. See KBA 2895352.
821132 In some circumstances, ALTER TABLE DROP PARTITION command may slowly execute especially on hyper-partitioned tables. The call stack for the session executing this command will often report the modules 'ptnc_fix_pctxt' and 's_cpytxt'. See KBA 2896288.
821135 A 874 error, "Process < process-id > is trying to unkeep buffer < buffer-address > (dbid: < database-id > , pageno: < page-number > ) without releasing the shared latch it holds on the buffer.", may be reported in the SAP ASE error log when executing DBCC CHECKTABLE and while the diagserver binary is in use.
821136 The message "end of stack trace" is not printed in the SAP Adaptive Server error log together with the stack trace, when the I/O Controller thread hits a signal.
