We have had the same issue with the HPL on 11.11, only it is perhaps 1
time in 5 or 6 with us. Annoying, nonetheless.

We, too, will be installing a 10.00.FC5X5 release, apparently available
only on HP-UX at present, Solaris coming soon.

We hope to install and test early next week.

Subject: dbimport bug in IDS 10.00.FC5


We recently encountered pretty severe dbimport bug when testing
10.00.FC5 with HP-UX 11i on a 4 processor server. The engine did an
assert failure each of the 4 times we tried doing an import - happened
anywhere from 10 mins to 3 hours after the import started.

According to Tech Support, this is a recently discovered bug (Bug #
IC50296: ENGINE ASSERTS IN ASLOGFLUSH DURING DBIMPORT or LOAD) that can
occur in multi-processor environments. We're supposed to be able to
download a version patch next week to correct the problem.

Sharing this here since this bug isn't listed in the "Fixed and Known
Defects" FC5 documents on IBM's web page.
