Default SQL Query x Multiple table Scans

Hello,

Db2 Linux LUW FP 15.

Consider table A (ID varchar, EXECUTION_DATE date).

a) I want to first retrieve all IDs that have not executed during the
last 90 days:

select distinct ID from table_B where NOT EXISTS
(select 1
from table_A
where EXECUTION_DATE between current date - 90 days and current
date AND
table_A.ID = table_B.ID)



b) Now I need the last execution for all IDs that have NOT executed
during the last 90 days:

select TABLE_A.ID, MAX(EXECUTION_DATE) from TABLE_A,

(
select distinct ID from table_B where NOT EXISTS
(select 1
from table_A
where EXECUTION_DATE between current date - 90 days and current
date AND
table_A.ID = table_B.ID)
) as TABLE_C

where TABLE_A.ID = TABLE_C.ID and
EXECUTION_DATE < current date - 90 days

group by TABLE_A.ID

That was easy. The question is ... is there any way to do the same
thing using a better approach, perhaps SINGLE table scan on table_A ?
This table is really big.

TIA, Michel.

What indexes do you have on table_A and table_B, and what access plan
do you currently have?

In addition, what are the number of rows for A and B?

Maybe I'm missing something obvious....:

SELECT ID, MAX(EXECUTION_DATE) FROM TABLEA GROUP BY ID
HAVING MAX(EXECUTION_DATE) < CURRENT DATE - 90 DAYS

Hi Serge,

In fact, this query does return the last execution prior to current
date - 90 days, but it does not consider that IDs should not execute
between current date - 90 days and current date

The above query returns IDs that have and have not executed between
current date - 90 days and current date.

The query I have posted works fine. I am looking for a way to tune
it ... Is there any way to produce the same result set with a single
table scan ?

TIA, Michel.

I read the rest of the thread. I'll see what I can do with this.

First, let's restate the problem: you want the set of all IDs that
have not executed in the last 90 days, and you want the date of their
last execution.

-- id, and the last execution date of all ids that join to the inner
query
SELECT a.id,
max(execution_date)
FROM table_a a
JOIN (
-- the set of all ids that have not executed in the last 90
days
SELECT id
FROM table_a
GROUP BY id
HAVING MAX(execution_date) < CURRENT DATE - 90 DAYS
) lt90
ON a.id = lt90.id

In your last post on this, it looks like you're interested in SW_ID
and MACHINE_ID, and there is an index that contains those columns plus
the date you're interested in, so I would expect this query to be
reasonably efficient.

Serge's query works properly on my LUW FP14 system. I'd recommend trying
a small test case (a sample table containing three rows) to verify that
this is failing on your system. If it's failing, then it needs to be
reported. I strongly doubt that FP15 will break this simple SQL statement.

[psherman@T40 ~]$ db2 "create table t1 (id char(2) not null,
execution_date date not null with default)"
DB20000I The SQL command completed successfully.
[psherman@T40 ~]$ db2 "insert into t1 values ('A','2007-12-01')"
DB20000I The SQL command completed successfully.
[psherman@T40 ~]$ db2 "insert into t1 values ('A','2006-12-01')"
DB20000I The SQL command completed successfully.
[psherman@T40 ~]$ db2 "insert into t1 values ('B','2006-12-01')"
DB20000I The SQL command completed successfully.
[psherman@T40 ~]$ db2 "select id, max(execution_date) from t1 group by id"
ID 2
-- ----------
A 12/01/2007
B 12/01/2006

2 record(s) selected.

[psherman@T40 ~]$ db2 "select id, max(execution_date) from t1 group by
id having max(execution_date) < current_date - 90 days"

ID 2
-- ----------
B 12/01/2006

1 record(s) selected.

Phil, Serge and Dean, thank you for your time. Let me try to explain
why this is incorrect:

Consider the following table data:

db2 "select MONITOR_DATE from ASSET.T_METERING where
MACHINE_ID='000B6A10620ED121C9481542' and SW_ID=77"

MONITOR_DATE
------------
10/17/2007
10/18/2007
11/30/2007

If I run my original query:

db2 "select MACHINE_ID, SW_ID from ASSET.TBL_ASSET_SW S where not
exists (select 1 from ASSET.T_METERING M where
M.MACHINE_ID=S.MACHINE_ID and S.SW_ID=M.SW_ID and MONITOR_DATE between
current date - 30 days and current date) and
MACHINE_ID='000B6A10620ED121C9481542' and SW_ID=77"

I get no results. Thatīs abovius, because there was an execution on
11/30/2007. Note that I do need to join with TBL_ASSET_SW for other
purposes.

Now, executing the queries you have suggested:

db2 "select MACHINE_ID,SW_ID from ASSET.T_METERING where
MACHINE_ID='000B6A10620ED121C9481542' group by MACHINE_ID, SW_ID
having MAX(MONITOR_DATE) < current date - 90 days"

SW_ID 77 is not returned here, which is nice.

Next:

db2 "select S.MACHINE_ID, S.SW_ID
from ASSET.TBL_ASSET_SW S
where NOT EXISTS (select MACHINE_ID, SW_ID
from ASSET.T_METERING M
where M.MACHINE_ID='000B6A10620ED121C9481542'
and
S.MACHINE_ID = M.MACHINE_ID and
S.SW_ID = M.SW_ID
group by MACHINE_ID, SW_ID
having MAX(MONITOR_DATE) < current date - 30
days)
and MACHINE_ID='000B6A10620ED121C9481542' and SW_ID=77"

It does return one row:

MACHINE_ID SW_ID
------------------------ ----------
000B6A10620ED121C9481542 77.

I understand whatīs happening here, and the result set is not
incorrect (according to the query). But for my scenario, this is just
wrong. I need to certify that the execution did not happen between
current date - X days and current date.

Hope that it makes sense now.

Thanks again.

I do not understand what's happening here.

> Hope that it makes sense now.

No it doesn't, you are assuming we have the same local knowledge as you.
1. We are missing the sample data for the asset table
2. You keep flip flopping between 30 days and 90 days which confuses the
matter
3. Shouldn't matter, but: Why are you adding the literal into the NOT
EXISTS with the HAVING?

I propose we restart with a clean slate:
Define both tables, define contents for both. Define the output.

Cheers
Serge
