Finding DB2 Tables with Abnormal Status
To view tables with abnormal statuses, you can use the following method:
- To query tables with abnormal status, open the command line interface, connect to the database by entering “db2 connect to
“, and then input “db2 “select tabschema, tabname, status from syscat.tables where status <> ‘N'”.” - Use a database management tool: Utilize a visual database management tool (such as IBM Data Studio, DBVisualizer, etc.) to connect to the database, navigate through the database objects, locate table objects, view their status properties, and filter out any tables with abnormal statuses.
Regardless of whether using the command line interface or a database management tool, the query results will display information about tables with abnormal statuses, such as the table’s schema, name, and status. Abnormal statuses may include being locked, suspended, invalid, or unavailable. Based on the specific status, appropriate actions can be taken to resolve the issue, such as unlocking the table or recompiling it.
