SAP Note 1416955 - DB6: Activation of an InfoObject never ends, or fails

Component : BW DB2 Universal Database - DB2 Universal Database for Unix / NT

Summary :
Activation issues with InfoObjects in SAP environments can occur after modifying navigation attributes, resulting in activation processes that do not complete or end with database errors. Specifically, the attribute SID table (X table) or time-dependent attribute SID table (Y table) may be empty, rendering the InfoObject inactive. The underlying problems include excessively long SQL statement texts and inefficient DB2 optimizer access plans due to large intermediate result sets caused by Cartesian products. Solutions involve configuring the RSADMIN parameter (SPLIT_SX_TABL_THRES), updating DB2 with requisite APARs, adjusting DB2 registry settings (e.g., DB2_EXTENDED_OPTIMIZATION), and possibly increasing the STMTHEAP database parameter.
