Issue/Introduction:

When trying to drop a partition, the ILM will keep skipping it.

The partition seems to be seen as "checked" by AWA but is not shown as so in the interface.

Cause:

This error may occur when the previous ILM did not end well.
Duplicated line may be visible in the table :

IPH_IDNR,IPH_PARTITION,IPH_TABLESPACE,IPH_MINVALUE,IPH_MAXVALUE,IPH_DATEFROM,IPH_DATETO,IPH_TABLE,IPH_STATE

Entries with state 2 will cause the ILM to skip the partition.

Environment:

Release : 12.2

Component : ACTION BUILDER

Resolution:

DBA action : Remove the duplicate lines in IPH table for the IPH_PARTITION causing trouble with IPH_STATE=2.
