1 – ABMCOLNAME
Column name matches simple function <str>; column value used
Explanation: You have given a column the name of a SQL builtin
function and SQL will use the column value instead of evaluating
the function. This ambiguous reference has been resolved in
favor or the user define name.
User Action: This is just a warning. However, you may want to
consider changing the column name, adding delimiters ("UID"), or
qualifying with table, view or correlation name (E.UID). If the
function result is desired then you can use an alternate format
for the function (e.g. adding the fractional precision
CURRENT_TIME(2), using an equivalent function CURRENT_UID,
instead of UIC, or writing a SQL function which has its own
query scope)

Restoring the after-image journal information permits subsequent "automatic" (i.e., hands-off) AIJ-recovery operations. User Action: No user action is required.
97 – AIJRSTDEL
journal "<str>" filename "<str>" has been removed Explanation: The indicated after-image journal could not be successfully restored. Therefore, the information regarding the journal has been removed from the database. Note, however, that the specified filename was NOT deleted. User Action: No user action is required.
98 – AIJRSTEND
after-image journal "state" restoration complete Explanation: The after-image journal restore operation has completed. User Action: No user action is required.
99 – AIJRSTINC
after-image journal sequence numbers are incompatible Explanation: The sequence number stored in the header of the after-image journal does not correspond to the sequence number stored in the database. Typically, this situation occurs if the after-image journal was modified or backed up AFTER the database backup was made. As a result, the journal information cannot be restored in the database. However, the on-disk after-image journal may be acceptable for subsequent roll-forward operations. User Action: No user action is required.
100 – AIJRSTJRN
restoring journal "<str>" information Explanation: The specified after-image journal was available when the database was originally backed up, and restoration of the journal "state" will be attempted. User Action: No user action is required.
101 – AIJRSTMOD
<num> after-image journal(s) marked as "modified" Explanation: This message indicates the number of after-image journals that were successfully restored, but contain data that needs to be backed up. User Action: No user action is required.
102 – AIJRSTNMD
journal has not yet been modified Explanation: The indicated after-image journal has not yet been modified, and is available for immediate use. Note that at least one unmodified after-image journal is required before journaling can be enabled. User Action: No user action is required.
103 – AIJRSTROOT

105 – AIJRSTSUC
journal "<str>" successfully restored from file "<str>" Explanation: The indicated after-image journal was successfully restored. User Action: No user action is required.
106 – AIJSEQAFT
incorrect AIJ file sequence <num> when <num> was expected Explanation: The AIJ file supplied was created subsequent to the expected AIJ file. Usually, this condition occurs for the following reasons: 1) an incorrect AIJ file or VMS file "version" was specified, 2) the supplied AIJ file was not created for this database, or 3) AIJ logging was disabled and then later enabled. User Action: The utility will prompt for confirmation that the supplied AIJ file is valid. If AIJ logging was disabled and then later enabled without any intervening database transaction activity, then confirming the AIJ file will permit the roll-forward operation to continue applying all transactions contained in the AIJ file. Otherwise, the AIJ file should be rejected and the correct AIJ file specified. Should confirmation be given for an incorrect AIJ file, no transactions will be applied.
107 – AIJSEQBCK
cannot find an AIJ journal with sequence number <num> Explanation: A "by-sequence" after-image journal backup operation was attempted with a sequence number that did not currently exist for any known AIJ journal. User Action: Specify a valid AIJ sequence number, or perform a full AIJ backup by not specifying the "by-sequence" command qualifier.
108 – AIJSEQPRI
AIJ file sequence number <num> created prior to expected sequence <num> Explanation: The after-image journal supplied was created prior to the expected AIJ file. Usually, this condition occurs for the following reasons: 1) an incorrect AIJ file or VMS file "version" was specified, 2) the supplied AIJ file was not created for this database, or 3) a database backup was performed subsequent to the AIJ backup. User Action: No user action is required. This message is informational only. The AIJ roll-forward operation will continue to completion, although no transactions will be applied from the AIJ file.
109 – AIJSIGNATURE
standby database AIJ signature does not match master database
Explanation: The number of AIJ journal slots ("reserved"), or
the specific journal allocation sizes, are not identical on both
the master and standby databases.
User Action: Make sure both the master and standby database AIJ
journal configurations are identical. Ensure that the AIJ
journal device "cluster size" is identical on both the master
and standby databases.
110 – AIJTERMINATE
inaccessible AIJ file forced image exit to protect database Explanation: To maintain the integrity of the database, the database system has forced your image to exit. An error has been encountered with one or more of the after-image journals that could jeopardize your ability to recover the database should a it become necessary to restore and recover the database. Until the journaling problem has been remedied no further updates to the database are allowed. User Action: The RMU or DBO /DUMP/HEADER=JOURNAL command will display the current state of the journals. Various remedies are possible, depending on the error encountered. Contact Oracle Support if you have questions on how to fix the problem. Typically, disabling and re-enabling journaling is the simplest way to restore operation of the database. This can be done using the DBO or RMU SET AFTER command, or from interactive SQL. After the journaling problem has been resolved a full database backup must be done to ensure that the database can be restored and recovered successfully in the future.
111 – AIJVNOSYNC
AIJ file <str> synchronized with database Explanation: When recovering a database for which AIJ journaling was enabled, it may be necessary to synchronize information in the AIJ file with information in the database root file. This is necessary to ensure that subsequent AIJ recovery operations are successful. User Action: No user action is required. This message is informational only.
112 – ALIASATTOP

131 – ANSIPROTONL
This statement may only refer to database with ANSI protection Explanation: You tried to execute a SHOW statement which is only for ANSI style protections on a database which uses ACL style protections. User Action: Only use this statement with ansi style protections.
132 – ANSI_UPDATE_VIEW
This view is non-updatable by ANSI standards Explanation: The way that the view was created violates the ANSI requirements for updatableness. The view is marked non-updatable though at this time (version 4.1), the view can still be updated. The violations of the ANSI standard are: a column name used more than once in a select expression and a computed-by field User Action: None. For future compatibility, user may want to note if a view is updatable or not
133 – AREABUSY
usage of storage area <str> conflicts with a co-user Explanation: You attempted to ready an area that is already being accessed by another user, and that usage mode is incompatible with the usage mode you requested. User Action: Wait until the storage area you requested is available, and try again, or ready the area with the WAIT option.
134 – AREAUNTILIGN

139 – ARGCOUNT
Procedure <str> expected <num> parameter(s), was passed <num> Explanation: The module language procedure was not passed as many parameters as it expected. This may be because the /CONTEXT qualifier was or was not specified when the module was compiled, or because the procedure call and procedure declaration do not have the same number of parameters. User Action: If a context parameter is being passed, make sure that the /CONTEXT qualifier is specified on module compilation. Otherwise, make sure that the procedure call and declaration specify the same number of parameters.
140 – ARGLISGTR255
Statement requires an argument list whose length exceeds maximum specified by the calling standard Explanation: The OpenVMS Calling Standard allows only 255 arguments to a procedure. A procedure call generated by the SQL Precompiler or SQL Module Language compiler has exceeded this limit. This may be due to an OPEN ... USING, FETCH ... INTO or EXECUTE ... USING/INTO variable list. Note that the SQLSTATE, SQLCA, or SQLCODE must also be passed to generated routines, this allows up to 254 user parameters. User Action: Reduce the parameters passed to these statements, possibly using SQLDA structures instead which can be arbitrarily long.
141 – ARIEXPEXP
Expected arithmetic value expression Explanation: You supplied a predicate where SQL expected to find an arithmetic value expression. User Action: You must use an arithmetic value expression in this context.
142 – ASSSTRLIT
Numeric literal is assumed to be text
Explanation: You tried to store a numeric literal into a text
column or compare a numeric literal to a text column. SQL
assumes the string is a text literal and converts it for the
storage or comparison. Note that each digit in the numeric
literal, including leading zeroes, is converted to text. For
instance, 001 and 1 represent the same number, but are converted
to different literals ("001" and "1").
User Action: None. However, it is good programming practice to
convert the numeric literal to a string literal by enclosing it
in quotes.
143 – ATTMISSING

previous AIJ backup did not complete Explanation: It appears that the previous AIJ file backup process, which was started on the indicated date/time, either failed or was prematurely terminated by the user. User Action: No user action required. The current AIJ backup will backup the complete AIJ file to ensure there is no loss of transactions. The AIJ file created by the failed backup utility MUST be preserved; DO NOT discard the AIJ backup file created by the failed backup utility. Even though the AIJ backup failed, the AIJ backup file must be used for successful roll-forward operations.
146 – BADAIJFILE
illegal after-image journal format or journal incorrectly mounted Explanation: The file you specified does not appear to be an after-image journal file. For example, when performing an AIJ roll-forward operation using an after-image journal on a magnetic tape, this problem will occur if the tape is incorrectly mounted. User Action: Check the file name and try again. Verify that a magnetic tape was correctly mounted.
147 – BADAIJSEQ

608 – FORCONSTNOUPD
Variable "<str>" is a FOR loop counter - assignment not allowed Explanation: The named variable was used by the FOR counted loop which makes it a CONSTANT for the duration of the loop body. This variable is the target of a SET, INSERT...RETURNING, SELECT...INTO, UPDATE...RETURNING, or GET GIAGNOSTICS statement or CALL output parameter. User Action: Check that the correct variable is used in this statement. If you need to update the loop counter, replace the FOR IN loop with a WHILE loop.
609 – FORFCHVARRO
FOR statement variable "<str>" is read only Explanation: (a) If the variable is on a FOR cursor loop then this variable and the select list value names are considered constant (i.e. read only) within the FOR body. (b) If the variable is on a FOR counted loop then this variable needs to be updated by the FOR loop but can not be changed because it is declared as CONSTANT. User Action: (a) Use the UPDATE ...

User Action: If possible, increase the amount of physical memory on the machine. Reduce the number of cache global sections, or reduce the size of each active cache global sections. Possibly moving a cache from SSB to VLM will also solve this problem. It might be necessary to delete some caches to alleviate this problem. Also, re-configuring the operating system parameters may be necessary to reduce physical memory consumption.
715 – INSVALSPEC
insert value is not a value specification or NULL Explanation: You used a value expression in the VALUES clause of an INSERT statement which was not a value specification or NULL. The ANSI standard does not support this. User Action: If ANSI standard behavior is important for your program then replace this value expression with one which fits the rules for value specification or NULL.

928 – NOAIJSERVER
database replication server is not running or running on other node Explanation: The database replication server process is not running on the standby node specified, or has abnormally terminated. There may also be a problem with the mailbox used to communicate with the database replication server. User Action: Check the system to determine whether or not the database replication server process is actually running on your system. Check the use of cluster aliases, as the replication connection may have been attempted on another node of the designated cluster. If the database replication server process does not appear to be running, have your database administrator start the replication server, and try again. If the database replication server process appears to be running properly, then the problem may be related to the mailbox by which user processes communicate with the replication server process. Make sure the "server name" specified for both the live and standby databases logical are unique and identical. On VMS platforms, the "server name" is used to create a logical of the same name that resides in a logical name table accessible to all users, typically the LNM$PERMANENT_MAILBOX name table. If the replication server process abnormally terminated, a bugcheck dump will normally be produced. Search the bugcheck dump for a string of five asterisks (*****) using the SEARCH/WINDOW command. You will see a line with a format similar to this: ***** Exception at <address> : <database module name> + <offset> %facility-severity-text, <error text> The exception line will be followed by one or more additional errors that will help you to determine what caused the replication server process to fail. Typically, the problem is caused by insufficient quotas or system resources. However, other possible causes include misdefined or undefined filename logicals. Depending on the cause of the problem, take the appropriate action. If you are uncertain of what to do, contact your Oracle support representative for assistance.

1017 – NOMONHOMEDIR
monitor home directory is not valid
Explanation: The directory from which the monitor was invoked
is no longer valid. Typically, this occurs when the monitor is
invoked by the installation IVP procedure, which subsequently
deletes the invocation directory. However, this can also occur
during day-to-day operations whenever directories are deleted.
When the monitor home directory does not exist, the monitor is
unable to invoke other server processes, such as the database
recovery process ("DBR") or the AIJ Backup Server ("ABS") to
name a few. When the monitor home directory does not exist, the
server processes will be unable to create temporary work files.
User Action: Stop the monitor, and restart it from a valid
directory.
1018 – NOMONITOR
database monitor is not running Explanation: The database monitor process is not running or has abnormally terminated. There may also be a problem with the mailbox used to communicate with the database monitor. User Action: Check the system to determine whether or not the database monitor process is actually running on your system. If the database monitor process does not appear to be running, have your database administrator start the monitor, and try again. If the database monitor process appears to be running properly, then the problem may be related to the mailbox by which user processes communicate with the monitor process. Make sure the logical <fac>$MAILBOX_CHANNEL resides in a logical name table accessible to all users, typically the LNM$PERMANENT_MAILBOX name table. If the monitor abnormally terminated, a bugcheck dump will normally be written to the monitor log. Search the monitor log for a string of five asterisks (*****) using the SEARCH/WINDOW command. You will see a line with a format similar to this: ***** Exception at <address> : <database module name> + <offset> %facility-severity-text, <error text> The exception line will be followed by one or more additional errors that will help you to determine what caused the monitor process to fail. Typically, the problem is caused by insufficient quotas or system resources. However, other possible causes include misdefined or undefined filename logicals. Depending on the cause of the problem, take the appropriate action. If you are uncertain of what to do, contact your Oracle support representative for assistance.
1019 – NOMOREGB
<num> global buffers not available to bind; <num> free out of <num> Explanation: Your attempt to bind to the database failed because there are not enough global buffers to allow your process to bind to the database. User Action: There are four ways to alleviate this problem. 1)Try to bind to the same database on another node, if you are using a VAXcluster. 2)Wait untill another user unbinds from the database and retry the bind. 3)Increase the number of global buffers used for the database. 4)Decrease the maximum number of global buffers any one user can use, in order to allow more users to bind to the database. Please see your DBA for help.

User Action: Rewrite your trigger so that values are available or there are no references to the values.
1204 – NO_TXNOUT
No transaction outstanding Explanation: You attempted to terminate a transaction with a COMMIT or a ROLLBACK when no transaction was outstanding. SQL does not start a transaction when you issue a DECLARE TRANSACTION, but waits until it encounters the first statement that requires a transaction. User Action: Execute a statement that requires a transaction before issuing COMMIT or ROLLBACK. All statements except DECLARE TRANSACTION, DECLARE ALIAS, CREATE DATABASE, ATTACH and DROP DATABASE require transactions.

1209 – NULLUSRPWD
A username and/or password was expected on the command line. Null is being used Explanation: In a DECLARE ALIAS statement the DEFAULT keyword was used in place of the actual username or password. The necessary qualifiers were not provided in the compilation command line, so a null is being used. User Action: Compile the module again and provide the necessary username and/or password qualifiers. For SQL$MOD use /USERNAME=username /PASSWORD=password. For SQL$PRE use /SQLOPTIONS=(USERNAME=username,PASSWORD=password).
1210 – NULL_COMP_COL
Computed Column <str> in table <str> is invalid - drop cascade Explanation: When you DROP an object and specify CASCADE, SQL drops or marks as invalid objects referencing it. Any computed column in another table that references the dropped table, is now invalid. This informational message indicates the column that was affected. User Action: Rollback the DROP ... CASCADE operation or redefined the missing object.
1211 – NUMCMPTXT
Numeric column will be compared with string literal as text Explanation: You tried to compare a text literal with a numeric column. The numeric column is converted to text and the comparison is made from left-to-right, character by character. This can lead to unexpected results. For example, the comparison N between "0001" and "0999", no matter what N is, will never be true, because N is converted to text without a leading zero and compared alphabetically with the two string literals. User Action: None, as long as you understand the semantics of the operation. You should be aware that the comparison will take place between text values.
1212 – NUMHVSNOT
Number of host variables passed (<num>) does not match number of parameters (<num>) Explanation: The number of host variables you passed in to an EXECUTE, OPEN, or FETCH statement does not match the number of parameter markers (question marks) in the PREPARE statement's command string. User Action: Make sure the number of host variables matches the number of parameter markers in the PREPARE statement. There are two ways to pass in host variables. One, explicitly pass in a list of host variables in a USING list. Or two, pass in an SQLDA in a USING DESCRIPTOR clause. If you are using an SQLDA, you must specify in the SQLDA SQLN field the number of SQLVAR structures you have initialized to point to your variables.
1213 – NUMITESEL
Number of items selected does not match number of items in the INTO clause Explanation: A SELECT statement must have as many values in the select list as there are in the INTO clause.

1236 – OPTDDLREC
TSN <num>:<num> contains DDL information that cannot be optimized Explanation: The identified transaction contains an AIJ record with DDL information. DDL information cannot be optimized and forces a flush of the accumulated SORT information. Too many of these operations limit the effectiveness of the resulting optimized after-image journal and decrease the overall optimization performance. User Action: No user action is required.
1237 – OPTEXCMAX
TSN <num>:<num> record size <num> exceeds maximum <num> record size Explanation: The identified transaction contains an AIJ record whose size exceeds the maximum specified sort record size. During AIJ optimization, fixed-length data records are passed to the sort utility. By default, the size of the sort records is 1548 bytes in length, which is also the maximum value allowed. The sort record length affects the amount of disk space required to complete the AIJ optimization operation. The size of the record passed to the sort utility can be adjusted using the <fac>$BIND_OPTIMIZE_AIJ_RECLEN logical. User Action: If possible, increase the size of the sort record using the <fac>$BIND_OPTIMIZE_AIJ_RECLEN logical.
1238 – OPTEXCSRT
AIJ record count exceeded specified <num> sort threshold Explanation: The number of AIJ records processed exceeded the maximum sort threshold specified by the <fac>$BIND_OPT_SORT_THRESHOLD logical name. This is not a fatal error. User Action: None. Use of the <fac>$BIND_OPT_SORT_THRESHOLD may reduce the sort work file disk space required for the AIJ optimization operation. However, this may result in a larger output file.
1239 – OPTEXCTXN
TSN <num>:<num> error count exceeded <num> failure threshold Explanation: The number of AIJ optimize errors exceeded the transaction error threshold specified by the <fac>$BIND_OPT_TXN_THRESHOLD logical name. This is not a fatal error. User Action: None. The remainder of the transaction contents are written directly to the optimized AIJ file. Use of the <fac>$BIND_OPT_TXN_THRESHOLD logical name may actually increase the AIJ optimize operation performance as the number of required sort operations is reduced. However, this may result in a larger output file.
1240 – OPTIMATTOP
The OPTIMIZE clause must appear in the outermost compound Explanation: You have used the OPTIMIZE clause in a compound statement that is nested within one or more other compound statements. User Action: Move the OPTIMIZE clause to the outermost compound statement in the procedure.
1241 – OPTINCONSIS
optimized AIJ file is inconsistent with the database Explanation: The database and/or some areas within the database are not consistent with the optimized AIJ file. The last transaction committed to the database and/or to some database areas is not the same as the last transaction committed to the database at the time the optimized AIJ file's original AIJ file was created. To use an optimized AIJ file for recovery, it must be consistent with the database and all areas. User Action: Use the original, non-optimized AIJ file to do the recovery.
1242 – OPTNOAREAREC
cannot do by-area recovery with an optimized AIJ file Explanation: A recover-by-area operation was attempted with an optimized AIJ file. Optimized AIJ files do not support recovery by area, so the recovery operation was aborted. User Action: Use the original, non-optimized AIJ file to do the by area recovery.
1243 – OPTNOUNTILREC
cannot do a /RECOVER/UNTIL with an optimized AIJ file Explanation: A recover operation specifying an "until" time is not allowed with an optimized AIJ file. No recovery is performed if this condition is specified. User Action: Use the original, non-optimized AIJ file to do the /RECOVER/UNTIL operation.
1244 – OPTRECLEN
AIJ optimization record length was <num> characters in length Explanation: During AIJ optimization, fixed-length data records are passed to the sort utility. By default, the size of the sort records is 1548 bytes in length, which is also the maximum value allowed. The sort record length affects the amount of disk space required to complete the AIJ optimization operation. The size of the record passed to the sort utility can be adjusted using the <fac>$BIND_OPTIMIZE_AIJ_RECLEN logical. This message indicates the size of the largest AIJ record passed to the sort utility that was less than or equal to the maximum sort record length. User Action: No user action is required.
1245 – OPTSRTSTAT
<str>: <num> Explanation: During optimization operations, statistics are often collected to aid the user in tuning. This message displays a single statistic.
1246 – ORAROWNUM

1430 – STRCVTNUM
String literal will be converted to numeric Explanation: You tried to store a text literal into a numeric column. The string literal will be converted to a numeric data type, if possible. User Action: None. However, if the string literal cannot be converted to a numeric data type, an error will result.
1431 – STRINXPR
Host structure <str> used in a value expression Explanation: SQL statements can only refer to a host structure in contexts where the host structure can be expanded to a list of values. A value expression requires a single value, so host structures cannot be used there. User Action: Replace the host structure with an elementary item.
1432 – STRLITEXP
A string literal was expected Explanation: A string literal was expected but something else was found. User Action: Correct the syntax error.
1433 – STRLITMISQUO

1437 – STRVALTRUNC
string value in "<str>" will be truncated to maximum length of <num> octets Explanation: Rdb supports strings up to 65535 octets in length. Even though you declared this host variable in excess of this length only the first 65535 octets will be used if the variable is passed to a SQL statement. Applications which expect to pass more than 65535 bytes to Rdb need to be corrected. User Action: Reduce the length to a value less than or equal to 65535 to eliminate the warning. The application may need to be changes to check for this limit.
1438 – STRXPREXP
A string expression was expected Explanation: A string literal, a character host variable, or USER was expected but something else was found. (Note that USER is not permitted in EXECUTE IMMEDIATE, and specifying it will also generate this message.) User Action: Correct the syntax error.

User Action: If it is important to have only standard SQL statements in your program, remove the GROUP BY clause or change the predicate to include ANY or ALL.
1442 – SUBNONATOMIC
Atomic compounds may contain only atomic compounds Explanation: An attempt was made to use the NOT ATOMIC clause in a compound which is contained in a compound that specifies ATOMIC. Atomic compounds may contain only atomic compounds. User Action: Use the ATOMIC clause for all sub-compounds of an atomic compound.
1443 – SUBTOOVAL
Column select expression specifies too many columns Explanation: A column select expression may only fetch one value unless it is in an EXISTS predicate. This means any column select expression that uses the column wildcard (*) must have only one-column tables in its FROM clause. User Action: If you specified more than one column explicitly, remove all but one. If you used a wildcard, explicitly name a single column instead.
1444 – SWITCH_REQ
Switch required, found <str> Explanation: A command line switch is required. User Action: Supply a valid switch.
1445 – SWOPNNOTCOMP

1451 – SYSPAGUNI
Page format for system relations being changed to UNIFORM Explanation: The storage area that contain the system relations must have UNIFORM page formats. Either through the use of the defaults, or by directly specifing PAGE FORMAT IS MIXED, SQL has been told to use MIXED page format for the area containing the system relations. SQL is overriding that to UNIFORM pages. User Action: None. This is an informational message. The user might want to change the command if it originated in a command file. This may avoid confusion later.
1452 – SYSRDONLY
write access is not allowed if RDB$SYSTEM is read-only Explanation: BATCH UPDATE and EXCLUSIVE UPDATE access do not update the snapshot files. The fact that snapshots are not being maintained is recorded in the RDB$SYSTEM area. Hence, RDB$SYSTEM may not be READ_ONLY.

1473 – TBLNOTCUR
Table <str> is not included in cursor <str> Explanation: An UPDATE or DELETE statement that uses the CURRENT OF clause must name the same table specified in the cursor. User Action: Either change the UPDATE or DELETE statement to use the table specified in the cursor, or use a cursor declared for the table you specified.
1474 – TBLREF_SELXPR
Correlation Name or select expression expected Explanation: Either a select expression or a correlation name is expected. User Action: Either add a correlation name or a select expression. Check parenthesis as they may not be matched correctly.
1475 – TERMINATE
database recovery failed -- access to database denied by monitor Explanation: To maintain the integrity of the database, the monitor forced your image exit because an unrecoverable error has been detected. User Action: Look for a file named SYS$SYSTEM:*DBRBUG.DMP. This is a DataBase Recovery process bugcheck dump. Search the file for a string of five asterisks (*****) using the SEARCH/WINDOW command. You will see a line with a format similar to this: ***** Exception at <address> : <database module name> + <offset> %facility-severity-text, <error text> The exception line will be followed by one or more additional errors that will help you to determine what caused the recovery process to fail. Possible causes include: low quotas, missing Recovery-Unit Journal (RUJ) files, or filename logicals misdefined or undefined. Depending on the cause of the problem, take the appropriate action. If you are uncertain of what to do, contact your Oracle support representative for assistance.
1476 – THRESHIGNO
Threshold clause with no specific storage area found in statement Explanation: You did not specify a storage area for the threshold clause. User Action: Please specify the storage area(s) or remove the threshold clause.
1477 – THRIGNSYS
Threshold options ignored for system relation area Explanation: The storage area that contain the system relations must have UNIFORM page formats. Either through the use of the defaults, or by directly specifing THRESHOLD options, SQL has been told to apply threshold options for the area containing the system relations. SQL is ignoring those options. User Action: None. This is an informational message. The user might want to change the command if it originated in a command file. This may avoid confusion later.
1478 – THRNOTALL
Threshold buffers is not a valid option for Async Prefetch Explanation: The THRESHOLD option is only valid with DETECTED ASYNC PREFETCH and not with ASYNC PREFETCH. User Action: If you want the ASYNC PREFETCH feature, remove the THRESHOLD syntax. If you want the DETECTED ASYNC PREFETCH feature, you must specify the DETECTED keyword and include the THRESHOLD syntax.
