a DB2 table? DB2 Interview Questions forum

Use SELECT COUNT(*) ... in db2 query

DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS


DB2 SQL INTERVIEW Questions

2) How do you eliminate duplicate values in DB2


SELECT ?

Use SELECT DISTINCT ... in db2 query

3) How do you select a row using indexes in DB2?

Specify the indexed columns in the WHERE clause of db2


query.

4) How do you find the maximum value in a column in


db2?

Use SELECT MAX(...) .. in db2 query

5) How do you retrieve the first 5 characters of


FIRSTNAME column of DB2 table EMP ?

SQL Query : SELECT SUBSTR(FIRSTNAME,1,5) FROM


EMP;

6) What are aggregate functions?

Bulit-in mathematical functions for use in SELECT clause.

www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 1/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

7) Can you use MAX on a CHAR column?

YES.

8) My SQL statement SELECT AVG(SALARY) FROM EMP yields inaccurate


results. Why?

Because SALARY is not declared to have NULLs and the employees for whom the
salary is not known are also counted.

9) How do you concatenate the FIRSTNAME and LASTNAME from EMP table to
give a complete name?

SELECT FIRSTNAME || � � || LASTNAME FROM EMP;

10) What is the use of VALUE function?

1. Avoid -ve SQLCODEs by handling nulls and zeroes in computations

2. Substitute a numeric value for any nulls used in computation

11) What is UNION,UNION ALL? �

UNION : eliminates duplicates

UNION ALL: retains duplicates

Both these are used to combine the results of different SELECT statements.

Suppose I have five SQL SELECT statements connected by UNION/UNION ALL, how
many times should I specify UNION to eliminate the duplicate rows? -

Once.

12) What is the restriction on using UNION in embedded SQL?

It has to be in a CURSOR.

13) In the WHERE clause what is BETWEEN and IN? �

BETWEEN supplies a range of values while IN supplies a list of values.

www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 2/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

14) Is BETWEEN inclusive of the range values specified? �

Yes.

15) What is 'LIKE' used for in WHERE clause? What are the wildcard
characters? �

LIKE is used for partial string matches. �%� ( for a string of any character ) and
�_� (for any single character ) are the two wild card characters.

16) When do you use a LIKE statement?

To do partial search e.g. to search employee by name, you need not specify the
complete name; using LIKE, you can search for partial string matches.

17) What is the meaning of underscore ( �_� ) in the LIKE statement? �

Match for any single character.

18) What do you accomplish by GROUP BY ... HAVING clause? �

GROUP BY partitions the selected rows on the distinct values of the column on which
you group by.

HAVING selects GROUPs which match the criteria specified

19) Consider the employee table with column PROJECT nullable. How can you get
a list of employees who are not assigned to any project?

SELECT EMPNO

FROM EMP

WHERE PROJECT IS NULL;

20) What is the result of this query if no rows are selected:

SELECT SUM(SALARY)

FROM EMP

WHERE QUAL=�MSC�;

NULL

21) Why SELECT * is not preferred in embedded SQL programs?

For three reasons:


www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 3/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

If the table structure is changed ( a field is added ), the program will have to be
modified

Program might retrieve the columns which it might not use, leading on I/O over head.

The chance of an index only scan is lost.

What are correlated subqueries? -

A subquery in which the inner ( nested ) query refers back to the table in the outer
query. Correlated subqueries must be evaluated for each qualified row of the outer
query that is referred to.

22) What are the issues related with correlated subqueries? �

???

DB2 Interview Questions - PART II

23) What is a cursor? why should it be used? �

Cursor is a programming device that allows the SELECT to find a set of rows but return
them one at a time.

Cursor should be used because the host language can deal with only one row at a time.

24) How would you retrieve rows from a DB2 table in embedded SQL? �

Either by using the single row SELECT statements, or by using the CURSOR.

Apart from cursor, what other ways are available to you to retrieve a row from a table in
embedded SQL? -

Single row SELECTs.

25) Where would you specify the DECLARE CURSOR statement? �

See answer to next question.

26) How do you specify and use a cursor in a COBOL program? �

Use DECLARE CURSOR statement either in working storage or in procedure


division(before open cursor), to specify the SELECT statement. Then use OPEN,
FETCH rows in a loop and finally CLOSE.

27) What happens when you say OPEN CURSOR?

If there is an ORDER BY clause, rows are fetched, sorted and made available for the
FETCH statement. Other wise simply the cursor is placed on the first row.

28) Is DECLARE CURSOR executable?

No.

29) Can you have more than one cursor open at any one time in a program ? �

www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 4/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Yes.

30) When you COMMIT, is the cursor closed? - drona db2 interview questions

Yes.

31) How do you leave the cursor open after issuing a COMMIT? ( for DB2 2.3 or
above only )

Use WITH HOLD option in DECLARE CURSOR statement. But, it has not effect in
psuedo-conversational CICS programs.

32) Give the COBOL definition of a VARCHAR field.

A VARCHAR column REMARKS would be defined as follows:

...

10 REMARKS.

49 REMARKS-LEN PIC S9(4) USAGE COMP.

49 REMARKS-TEXT PIC X(1920).

33) What is the physical storage length of each of the following DB2 data types:

DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP?

DATE: 4bytes

TIME: 3bytes

TIMESTAMP: 10bytes

34) What is the COBOL picture clause of the following DB2 data types:

DATE, TIME, TIMESTAMP?

DATE: PIC X(10)

TIME : PIC X(08)

TIMESTAMP: PIC X(26)

35) What is the COBOL picture clause for a DB2 column defined as
DECIMAL(11,2)? - Ramesh

PIC S9(9)V99 COMP-3.

Note: In DECIMAL(11,2), 11 indicates the size of the data type and 2 indicates the
precision.

36) What is DCLGEN ? -

DeCLarations GENerator: used to create the host language copy books for the table
definitions. Also creates the DECLARE table.

www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 5/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

37) What are the contents of a DCLGEN? -

1. EXEC SQL DECLARE TABLE statement which gives the layout of the table/view in
terms of DB2 datatypes.

2. A host language copy book that gives the host variable definitions for the column
names.

38) Is it mandatory to use DCLGEN? If not, why would you use it at all? -

It is not mandatory to use DCLGEN.

Using DCLGEN, helps detect wrongly spelt column names etc. during the pre-compile
stage itself ( because of the DECLARE TABLE ). DCLGEN being a tool, would
generate accurate host variable definitions for the table reducing chances of error.

39) Is DECLARE TABLE in DCLGEN necessary? Why it used?

It not necessary to have DECLARE TABLE statement in DCLGEN. This is used by the
pre-compiler to validate the table-name, view-name, column name etc., during pre-
compile.

40) Will precompile of an DB2-COBOL program bomb, if DB2 is down?

No. Because the precompiler does not refer to the DB2 catalogue tables.

41) How is a typical DB2 batch pgm executed ?

1. Use DSN utility to run a DB2 batch program from native TSO. An example is shown:

DSN SYSTEM(DSP3)

RUN PROGRAM(EDD470BD) PLAN(EDD470BD) LIB('ED 01T.OBJ.LOADLIB')

END

2. Use IKJEFT01 utility program to run the above DSN command in a JCL.

Assuming that a site�s standard is that pgm name = plan name, what is the easiest
way to find out which pgms are affected by change in a table�s structure ?

Query the catalogue tables SYSPLANDEP and SYSPACKDEP.

42) Name some fields from SQLCA.

SQLCODE, SQLERRM, SQLERRD

43) How can you quickly find out the # of rows updated after an update statement?

Check the value stored in SQLERRD(3).

44) What is EXPLAIN? � drona questions

EXPLAIN is used to display the access path as determined by the optimizer for a SQL
statement. It can be used in SPUFI (for single SQL statement ) or in BIND step (for
embedded SQL ).

www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 6/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

45) What do you need to do before you do EXPLAIN?

Make sure that the PLAN_TABLE is created under the AUTHID.

46) Where is the output of EXPLAIN stored? �

In userid.PLAN_TABLE

47) EXPLAIN has output with MATCHCOLS = 0. What does it mean? �

a nonmatching index scan if ACCESSTYPE = I.

48) How do you do the EXPLAIN of a dynamic SQL statement?

1. Use SPUFI or QMF to EXPLAIN the dynamic SQL statement

2. Include EXPLAIN command in the embedded dynamic SQL statements

49) How do you simulate the EXPLAIN of an embedded SQL statement in


SPUFI/QMF? Give an example with a host variable in WHERE clause.)

Use a question mark in place of a host variable ( or an unknown value ). e.g.

SELECT EMP_NAME

FROM EMP

WHERE EMP_SALARY > ?

DB2 Interview Questions - PART III www.mainframegurukul.com

50) What are the isolation levels possible ? �

CS: Cursor Stability

RR: Repeatable Read

51) What is the difference between CS and RR isolation levels?

CS: Releases the lock on a page after use

RR: Retains all locks acquired till end of transaction

52) Where do you specify them ?

ISOLATION LEVEL is a parameter for the bind process.

53) When do you specify the isolation level? How?

During the BIND process. ISOLATION ( CS/RR )...

I use CS and update a page. Will the lock be released after I am done with that page?

No.
www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 7/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

54) What are the various locking levels available?

PAGE, TABLE, TABLESPACE

55) How does DB2 determine what lock-size to use?

1. Based on the lock-size given while creating the tablespace

2. Programmer can direct the DB2 what lock-size to use

3. If lock-size ANY is specified, DB2 usually chooses a lock-size of PAGE

56) What are the disadvantages of PAGE level lock? - RAMESH


www.mainframetutorials.com

High resource utilization if large updates are to be done

57) What is lock escalation?

Promoting a PAGE lock-size to table or tablespace lock-size when a transaction has


acquired more locks than specified in NUMLKTS. Locks should be taken on objects in
single tablespace for escalation to occur.

www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 8/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

58) What are the various locks available?

SHARE, EXCLUSIVE, UPDATE

59) Can I use LOCK TABLE on a view?

DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS -   No. To lock a view, take lock on the


advertisement underlying tables.

60) What is ALTER ? �

SQL command used to change the definition


of DB2 objects.
61) What is a DBRM, PLAN ?

DBRM: DataBase Request Module, has the SQL statements extracted from the host
language program by the pre-compiler.

PLAN: A result of the BIND process. It has the executable code for the SQL statements
in the DBRM.

62) What is ACQUIRE/RELEASE in BIND?

Determine the point at which DB2 acquires or releases locks against table and
tablespaces, including intent locks.

63) What else is there in the PLAN apart from the access path? �

PLAN has the executable code for the SQL statements in the host program
www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 9/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

64) What happens to the PLAN if index used by it is dropped?

Plan is marked as invalid. The next time the plan is accessed, it is rebound.

65) What are PACKAGES ? �

They contain executable code for SQL statements for one DBRM.

66) What are the advantages of using a PACKAGE?

1. Avoid having to bind a large number of DBRM members into a plan

2. Avoid cost of a large bind

3. Avoid the entire transaction being unavailable during bind and automatic rebind of a
plan

4. Minimize fallback complexities if changes result in an error.

67) What is a collection?

a user defined name that is the anchor for packages. It has not physical existence. Main
usage is to group packages.

In SPUFI suppose you want to select max. of 1000 rows , but the select returns only 200
rows.

68) What are the 2 sqlcodes that are returned? �

100 ( for successful completion of the query ), 0 (for successful COMMIT if


AUTOCOMMIT is set to Yes).

69) How would you print the output of an SQL statement from SPUFI? �

Print the output dataset.

70) How do you pull up a query which was previously saved in QMF ? �

??

71) Lot of updates have been done on a table due to which indexes have gone
haywire. What do you do? �

Looks like index page split has occurred. DO a REORG of the indexes.

72) What is dynamic SQL? �

Dynamic SQL is a SQL statement created at program execution time.

73) When is the access path determined for dynamic SQL? �

At run time, when the PREPARE statement is issued.

74) Suppose I have a program which uses a dynamic SQL and it has been
performing well till now. Off late, I find that the performance has deteriorated.
www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 10/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

What happened? �

Probably RUN STATS is not done and the program is using a wrong index due to
incorrect stats.

Probably RUNSTATS is done and optimizer has chosen a wrong access path based on
the latest statistics.

DB2 Interview Questions - PART IV www.mainframegurukul.com

75) How does DB2 store NULL physically?

as an extra-byte prefix to the column value. physically, the nul prefix is Hex �00�
if the value is present and Hex �FF� if it is not.

76) How do you retrieve the data from a nullable column? �

Use null indicators. Syntax ... INTO :HOSTVAR:NULLIND

77) What is the picture clause of the null indicator variable? �

S9(4) COMP.

78) What does it mean if the null indicator has -1, 0, -2? �

-1 : the field is null

0 : the field is not null

-2 : the field value is truncated

79) How do you insert a record with a nullable column?

To insert a NULL, move -1 to the null indicator

To insert a valid value, move 0 to the null indicator

80) What is RUNSTATS? �

A DB2 utility used to collect statistics about the data values in tables which can be used
by the optimizer to decide the access path. It also collects statistics used for space
management. These statistics are stored in DB2 catalog tables.

81) When will you chose to run RUNSTATS?

After a load, or after mass updates, inserts, deletes, or after REORG.

82) Give some example of statistics collected during RUNSTATS?

# of rows in the table

Percent of rows in clustering sequence

# of distinct values of indexed column


www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 11/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

# of rows moved to a nearby/farway page due to row length increase

83) What is REORG? When is it used?

REORG reorganizes data on physical storage to reclutser rows, positioning overflowed


rows in their proper sequence, to reclaim space, to restore free space. It is used after
heavy updates, inserts and delete activity and after segments of a segmented tablespace
have become fragmented.

84) What is IMAGECOPY ? �

It is full backup of a DB2 table which can be used in recovery.

85) When do you use the IMAGECOPY? �

To take routine backup of tables

After a LOAD with LOG NO

After REORG with LOG NO

86) What is COPY PENDING status?

A state in which, an image copy on a table needs to be taken, In this status, the table is
available only for queries. You cannot update this table. To remove the COPY
PENDING status, you take an image copy or use REPAIR utility.

87) What is CHECK PENDING ?

When a table is LOADed with ENFORCE NO option, then the table is left in CHECK
PENDING status. It means that the LOAD utility did not perform constraint checking.

88) What is QUIESCE?

A QUIESCE flushes all DB2 buffers on to the disk. This gives a correct snapshot of the
database and should be used before and after any IMAGECOPY to maintain
consistency.

89) What is a clustering index ? �

Causes the data rows to be stored in the order specified in the index. A mandatory index
defined on a partitioned table space.

90) How many clustering indexes can be defined for a table?

Only one.

91) What is the difference between primary key & unique index ?

Primary : a relational database constraint. Primary key consists of one or more columns
that uniquely identify a row in the table. For a normalized relation, there is one
designated primary key.

Unique index: a physical object that stores only unique values. There can be one or
more unique indexes on a table.

www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 12/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

92) What is sqlcode -922 ?

Authorization failure

93) What is sqlcode -811?

SELECT statement has resulted in retrieval of more than one row.

94) What does the sqlcode of -818 pertain to? �

This is generated when the consistency tokens in the DBRM and the load module are
different.

95) Are views updateable ?

Not all of them. Some views are updateable e.g. single table view with all the fields or
mandatory fields. Examples of non-updateable views are views which are joins, views
that contain aggregate functions(such as MIN), and views that have GROUP BY clause.

96) If I have a view which is a join of two or more tables, can this view be
updateable? �

No.

97) What are the 4 environments which can access DB2 ?

TSO, CICS, IMS and BATCH

98) What is an inner join, and an outer join ?

Inner Join: combine information from two or more tables by comparing all values that
meet the search criteria in the designated column or columns of on e table with all the
clause in corresponding columns of the other table or tables. This kind of join which
involve a match in both columns are called inner joins.

Outer join is one in which you want both matching and non matching rows to be
returned. DB2 has no specific operator for outer joins, it can be simulated by combining
a join and a correlated sub query with a UNION.

99) What is FREEPAGE and PCTFREE in TABLESPACE creation?

PCTFREE: percentage of each page to be left free

FREEPAGE: Number of pages to be loaded with data between each free page

100) What are simple, segmented and partitioned table spaces ?

Simple Tablespace:

Can contain one or more tables

Rows from multiple tables can be interleaved on a page under the DBAs control and
maintenance

Segmented Tablespace:

Can contain one or more tables


www.mainframetutorials.com/DB2.html 13/18
4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Tablespace is divided into segments of 4 to 64 pages in increments of 4 pages. Each


segment is dedicated to single table. A table can occupy multiple segments

Partitioned Tablespace:

Can contain one table

Tablespace is divided into parts and each part is put in a separate VSAM dataset.

101) What is filter factor?

one divided by the number of distinct values of a column.

102) What is index cardinality? �

The number of distinct values a column or columns contain.

103) What is a synonym ?

Synonym is an alternate name for a table or view used mainly to hide the leading
qualifier of a table or view.. A synonym is accessible only by the creator.

104) What is the difference between SYNONYM and ALIAS?

SYNONYM: is dropped when the table or tablespace is dropped. Synonym is available


only to the creator.

ALIAS: is retained even if table or tablespace is dropped. ALIAS can be created even if
the table does not exist. It is used mainly in distributed environment to hide the location
info from programs. Alias is a global object & is available to all.

105) What do you mean by NOT NULL WITH DEFAULT? When will you use it?

This column cannot have nulls and while insertion, if no value is supplied then it wil
have zeroes, spaces or date/time depending on whether it is numeric, character or
date/time.

Use it when you do not want to have nulls but at the same time cannot give values all
the time you insert this row.

106) What do you mean by NOT NULL? When will you use it?

The column cannot have nulls. Use it for key fields.

107) When would you prefer to use VARCHAR?

When a column which contains long text, e.g. remarks, notes, may have in most cases
less than 50% of the maximum length.

108) What are the disadvantages of using VARCHAR?

1. Can lead to high space utilization if most of the values are close to maximum.

2. Positioning of VARCHAR column has to be done carefully as it has performance


implications.

3. Relocation of rows to different pages can lead to more I/Os on retrieval.

4/9/23, 4:53 PM DB2 INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

109) How do I create a table MANAGER ( EMP#, MANAGER) where


MANAGER is a foreign key which references to EMP# in the same table? Give the
exact DDL.

First CREATE MANAGER table with EMP# as the primary key. Then ALTER it to
define the foreign key.

When is the authorization check on DB2 objects done - at BIND time or run time?

At run time.

110) What is auditing?

Recording SQL statements that access a table. Specified at table creation time or
through alter.
