FIX: The SQL Server process may generate an access error violation when you use the OLE DB provider for DB2 that is included in Host Integration Server 2004 or in Host Integration Server 2006 together with SQL Server

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You use the Microsoft OLE DB provider for DB2 that is included in Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004 together with Microsoft SQL Server.
  • The OLE DB provider for DB2 issues a query to obtain index keys from a computer that is running IBM DB2 for z/OS.
  • The computer that is running IBM DB2 for z/OS contains duplicate index names in the SYSIBM.SYSKEYS view.
In this scenario, the SQL Server process may generate an access violation error.

Notes
  • IBM DB2 for z/OS was previously known as IBM DB2/MVS.
  • This issue also occurs in Microsoft Host Integration Server 2006.

Cause

This problem occurs because the OLE DB provider for DB2 does not include the following clause when the OLE DB provider for DB2 issues a query to obtain the index keys from the computer that is running IBM DB2 for z/OS:
SYSIBM.SYSKEYS.IXCREATOR = SYSIBM.SYSINDEXES.CREATOR
If the query causes the DB2 database to return duplicate index names, SQL Server generates an access violation error.

More information

After you apply this update, the OLE DB provider for DB2 issues a query similar to the following to obtain index information from a system that is running IBM DB2 for z/OS.
SELECT 	
	VARCHAR(RTRIM(T1.TBCREATOR), 128) as TABLE_QUALIFIER
	, VARCHAR(RTRIM(T1.TBNAME), 128) as TABLE_NAME
	, smallint( CASE WHEN T1.UNIQUERULE = 'U' THEN 1 ELSE 2 END) AS NON_UNIQUE
	, VARCHAR(RTRIM(T1.INDEXSPACE), 128) as INDEX_QUALIFIER
	, VARCHAR(RTRIM(T1.NAME), 128) as INDEX_NAME
	, T2.COLSEQ as SEQ_IN_INDEX
	, VARCHAR(RTRIM(T2.COLNAME), 128) as COLUMN_NAME
	, T2.ORDERING as COLLATION
	, T2.COLNO as ORDINAL_IN_BASE 
FROM 
	SYSIBM.SYSINDEXES T1
	, SYSIBM.SYSKEYS T2 
WHERE 
	SYSIBM.SYSKEYS.IXNAME = SYSIBM.SYSINDEXES.NAME 
	AND SYSIBM.SYSKEYS.IXCREATOR = SYSIBM.SYSINDEXES.CREATOR
Until you apply this update, the SYSIBM.SYSKEYS.IXCREATOR = SYSIBM.SYSINDEXES.CREATOR clause is not included in the query.

The following tables give examples of query results before and after you apply this update.

Query results before you apply the update
TABLE_QUALIFIERTABLE_NAMENON_UNIQUEINDEX_QUALIFIERINDEX_NAME
DB2USER1TABLE11INDEX1INDEX1
DB2USER1TABLE11INDEX1INDEX1
Query results after you apply the update
IXCREATORTABLE_QUALIFIERTABLE_NAMENON_UNIQUEINDEX_QUALIFIERINDEX_NAME
TESTUSERDB2USER1TABLE11INDEX1INDEX1
DB2USER1DB2USER1TABLE11INDEX1INDEX1
After you apply this update, the data that the OLE DB provider for DB2 returns to SQL Server lets SQL Server determine whether the index names are duplicates. SQL Server determines this based on the different values in the IXCREATOR column.
