Issue/Introduction

A new segment was created for a new dictionary (DDLDML and DDLDCLOD) in a non-zero PAGE GROUP. A new DBNAME was defined that includes the new segment and SYSMSG. Any use of subschema IDMSNWKA, such as in the IDD compilers, causes DB347030 error.

DB347030 Vnn Tnnnn non unique page groups binding IDMSNWKA subschema

Environment

Release: All supported releases.

Cause

Dictionaries cannot utilize Mixed Page Groups.

Subschema IDMSNWKA, used by the IDD compilers contains three areas: DDLDML, DDLDCLOD and DDLDCMSG.

The dictionary DBNAME set must have all three areas in the same page group.

Resolution

If it is necessary to define a new dictionary which cannot be defined in PAGE GROUP 0, and you want it to use the same physical SYSMSG.DDLDCMSG area, use the technique documented at Non-zero page groups in dictionary segments.
